Not all babies are cute, can we at least admit that? Some children are vile and far from innocent, have I lied?  My friends might not be good people,  myself too? You sort of agree with Trump... I shouldn't say that? I cannot tell my boyfriend I hate his sister or his mother, can you?  We should not talk about sex, it's inappropriate  am I right?  Your family is bothersome, can they not be? Honesty is the best policy, is it not?  What are you scared of baby? 

As per rice, before the jollof Wisdom is your grandmother telling you to soak it for an hour, "experience" is your mother telling you to 3 table spoons of oil per cup, innovation is you using butter to fry the soaked rice first.  You're welcome!

Just a metaphor for "you have now fully transformed into the idealised male-oriented beauty standards" , and henceforth you will be subjected to objectification and sexualisation by the society.  Yes; you have truly become a standard product and now you have to go to crazy lengths to maintain this current value before you depreciate. 

If you're a self-sabotager, this piece is for you. There are hundreds of thousands of articles and blog posts on how to be a better boyfriend or girlfriend. Find out if they're cheating, or if your partner is a liar. This is not about saving your relationship, this is how you can kill your relationship without a chance of revival. These are based on years of cumulative experiences, experiments, and accidents. So this is how you snuff the life out of your relationship. Be absolutely self-serving.  Make the entire relationship about you, how can your partner engage in activities are beneficial to you alone not you as a couple? Make sure their existence is about you, how they can go out of their way every time to please you (including the sack). You MUST make sure they are a means to an end. Any chance of learning about each other or growing together, make it about your life, your own experiences, what you like and don't like. Their feelings are after all second to your...

I stopped lying because it was simply boring. There is always this cozying expectation that comes with lies, to protect yourself or someone, out of fear or uncertainty. I have learned to love the look of reckless abandon on people's faces when I tell them the truth , regardless of if I am hurting myself or their expectations. You can almost see their brain trying to reconcile what happened with their expectations of cozy lies, watching people frantically look for the threads of reality to continue the conversation seamlessly, watching them grasp at fear I mean its almost...cruelly poetic. The ability to walk away from lying when it is an option if the greatest form of freedom, true liberty and growth. It is standing in the face of unformed realities and taking a plunge. It can absolutely go wrong, don't misunderstand me...it not necessarily about morals and ethics, but about living like the all those cheesy quotes we read but don't manifest. Lying, so easy but rarely i...

 Nigeria's economy may be in a recession, but the wedding industry begs to differ with the ever-increasing cost of weddings in Nigeria (stupendous if you're in Abuja). The smallest event has you spending a wholesome 500 thousand naira for 100 guests to the more lavish society weddings that can total a whooping 30 Million naira.  It is safe to say if you are in the wedding planning business (make-up, catering, event centres, furnishing, tailoring, photography) , you're a "big man". With the population of Nigeria at around 200 million people and growing ; things are not slowing down, if you can afford it , I'm down for the small chops (spring rolls, samosas , puff puff) . I personally enjoy scrolling through Bellanaijaweddings into the ungodly hours of the night admiring the cheerful brides; but my issues are with the receipts. Here is what I mean: the number of divorcees and single parents is getting alarming. It is estimated that 1 in 5 girls will b...

This man-made God,  the politically-aware one.  With pockets deeper than Rockefeller, hungry for the change in your pocket. ,the 21st century alpha omega he doesn't give his followers a book or ask for prayers,  uses "likes" as a criteria for your piety.  This new god that is so dynamic, ever-changing, politically correct.  he sits on boardrooms and lobbies for peace and blessings;  accustomed to luxury.  flies in jets and gives his love to the highest bidder. forgiveness is auctioned, conscience-free. he, the one whom oppresses women and rapes little boys, pro-bloodshed;  and depending on what he is selling,  hell is conditional, on whether you're buying what he is selling.  safe, as long as you can afford his heaven. This god, the one whom insists you show-off how charitable you are on Facebook, this Instagram god,  the one who sitting with his diary,  writing the names of thos...
