There is no other name for these things in other languages. Gele is Gele worldwide. That’s what it will forever be!
Igbo women are leading finance, medicine, banking, sports, etc.
But an Omoye that knows only how to braid hair is hating on them.
You'll never be half as exceptional as the least Igbo woman.
And this didn't happen.
If we check well, she never wanted your silly self.
One babe was moving like she wanted us to be friends and I didn’t mind initially until I found out she was Igbo.
The way I cut her off. You won’t believe it.
You see as I keep quiet since. 😂 Anytime they want to introduce a new product to Nigerians, they will villainise the existing one just to create a market for the new one.
Make una buy cup finish. Give it three months, everybody will quietly go back to using pads or diapers.
This menstrual cup that is so tiny and, at least in my case, fills up within 30 minutes to an hour. It leaks quickly, and let’s not even talk about how inconvenient it is when you need to change it.
You need somewhere with constant running water, preferably warm water, to empty it, wash it properly, wash your hands, and then insert it again. Sometimes, you even need to be in a particular position just to get the damn thing in properly.
Now imagine you’re travelling, visiting someone, at the market, or just somewhere without convenient access to water, and you suddenly need to change it.
Meanwhile, pad or period underwear? Quick, easy, discreet. Fold the pad, put it in your bag, change it when you need to, wrap it properly and dispose of it somewhere appropriate.
Where you wan carry menstrual cup wey blood dey, dey go? 😂
Ichafu on my great grandmother. (Nne ukwu)

Ichafu on my maternal grandma.

We will be closing registration for the South-East Maths & Science Competition in 4 days.
So far, 43,423 students have registered. Here is the breakdown:
Abia State - 9,688
Anambra State - 4,050
Ebonyi State - 8,339
Enugu State - 10,290
Imo State - 11,056
We have created a new energy among young people across the region, an energy that will help us discover thousands of geniuses and brilliant minds in the years ahead.
Something powerful is happening in the South-East.
Our future is bright. Our future is exciting.
Nobody's shouting.
You're not reading.
Gele is Yoruba pure and simple.
Ichafu is Igbo.
What's the misogyny or shout there?
We're no longer shrinking ourselves, we're showcasing our fashion too.
The lies are too much.
Today, I have formally begun a journey across 18 different countries in search of one truth: How can education help the South East achieve its full potential?
At the end of this journey, we will examine the question of purpose through three lenses: society, the individual, and morality.
From a societal perspective, our mission is clear: to equip the next generation with the knowledge, skills, and tools to survive, thrive, and lead a new era of African civilization.
One of the places I will visit is Ulm, Germany, the birthplace of Albert Einstein - not simply to study history, but to explore the ideas, systems, and environments that allow extraordinary human potential to emerge.
This journey is about bringing those lessons home.
In 10 years, we will build the greatest workforce in Africa.

Chisom would have carried it on their heads like tipper of sand.
They would have even dragged the man join if he were Igbo.
Three hideous triplets that does anything for Elon money.
If the woman in question were an Igbo woman, this space wouldn’t contain us. They would drag her, then drag Igbo women as a whole, calling us all sorts of names and using her actions to paint us as the worst women on earth. And more often than not, the loudest voices would be Igbo men.
When women from other tribes get themselves into some sort of mess, their men seem perfectly capable of separating the individual from the entire tribe. But let it be an Igbo woman, and suddenly some Igbo men make it their personal mission to shame her and use her as evidence against every Igbo woman.
I’m yet to see Yoruba people dragging the woman in this particular situation. Everyone is focused on the man, as they rightly should be.
If she were Igbo, though? They would crucify her, generalize her behaviour to millions of Igbo women, and somehow find a way to make excuses for the man.
It is because of Nigerian men narcissistic view that once a man yearns or likes you, you should reciprocate.
Forgetting that the heart wants what it wants.
All the girls from Lockdown season chose very attractive men, from Ozo to Prince to Bright O, but they expected Erica to leave Kidd and choose Laycon because of his intelligence. Why didn't Vee or Nengi or Tolanibaj pick laycon
