I am an overly emotional non emotional clingy but private person who likes to over share at any moment and I am pretty cool after you get past my vague dislike of things,shyness and pretending not to care when I really do
Robbing Peter to pay Paul.
Those three brothers are so symbolically named, it has to be fated.
What is happening between them is what the Yoruba call Ìlara - unwarranted envy and resentment that goes deep into the blood and the psyche and can not, will not, be appeased.
when I was doing my BSc in political science, I used to glaze over revolution as the only solution to Nigeria’s problems.
but after my several touch-points with reality, I have come to a higher realization that in our bid to sail towards a place of Eldorado, if we by chance toe the line of revolution, people like you and I would first be killed by this kind of people. if that happens, we have lost the revolution. it will just swiftly turn to a looting exercise with no direction.
Sometimes, you don't realise how quickly you can deliver certain jobs until there's a time limit, and it's for your sister.

The starting point was Michelangelo’s The Creation of Adam — God’s touch giving life to man.
I reimagined that idea through Chowdeck: not quite giving life 😅, but making everyday life easier through food, groceries and essentials.
Pictures from my first solo show don't look like much, but it was a sold-out show. It not only laid the foundation for future exhibitions, it also reinforced my belief that I can achieve whatever I set my sights on, God willing.

Andrew Wiles worked on Fermat's Last Theorem alone in his attic for 7 years and told nobody except his wife.
The problem was 358 years old. Fermat scribbled in a margin in 1637 that he had a proof and no room to write it, and every mathematician since had failed.
Wiles saw the statement in a library book at 10 years old. He never let it go.
He was a Princeton professor when he started in 1986. He stopped publishing new work and released old results in pieces to hide the silence.
He announced it in Cambridge in June 1993, over 3 lectures, revealing the target only at the end. Newspapers ran it worldwide.
Then a referee found a gap. One step in the proof did not hold, and the error was fundamental.
He spent 14 months trying to close it in public view, with the whole field watching. He was ready to quit.
The fix arrived in September 1994. He has said he stared at it in disbelief for 20 minutes.
The BBC filmed him describing that moment. He gets a few words out, then turns away from the camera in tears.
He kept the greatest result of the century secret so nobody could take it.
