A business poster from an Ebonyi-based lady has sent social media into a frenzy after many mistook it for an obituary announcement.
The mix-up has sparked reactions online, with some netizens blaming ...er designer for the misleading layout.
A Facebook user, Meme Plug General, first shared the image on the platform, expressing shock at the confusing design.
“Omor, I nearly type RIP oo,” he wrote, suggesting that he initially thought ...er was mourning the lady.
...er was actually promoting a four-day business training event in Ebonyi, but its design elements, including the font, color scheme, and placement of the lady’s picture, closely resembled a typical obituary notice.
Reacting to the mix-up, social media users called out the designer:
Prince Kelly said: “I don call the number wey dey there tire. The mugu is not picking up. He would have heard from me. Nonsense.”
Wisdom Aminayanasam added: “You people should be careful the way you create banners. Create it in a better way because it’s not a sad story that happened to her.”
The incident has sparked a conversation about graphic design professionalism, with many urging designers to be mindful of how their layouts are perceived to avoid unnecessary confusion.
