I’m asking the internet to do something scary:
*Please Take a chance on me*
My name is Assumpta. I’m a Nigerian creative writer living with cerebral palsy, and I’ve spent my entire life learning how to pursue opportunities in a world that doesn’t always make room for my body
I hate that we are in an age where you have to put yourself out there on social media. I hate it so much as it’s not everyone that’s comfortable with it.
I know of emails that change people’s lives
One refresh, and all the months of efforts and waiting finally makes sense.

“Here we go again” and yet you couldn’t get through one paragraph without misrepresenting what Mount Zion actually does. Let me help.
MZ doesn’t demonize Yoruba culture. It celebrates it; the colors, the language, the proverbs, the royalty. Eg. Abejoye became a born-again Christian while still speaking deep Yoruba, bowing before his king, and dropping proverbs that’ll make your grandfather nod. Nobody took his culture. The Gospel just took the throne in his heart.
You framed this as “Yoruba spirituality vs foreign religion.” We never did. We frame it as Light vs Darkness and Darkness has no nationality. We’ve called it out in boardrooms, cities, and yes, in the villages. Location doesn’t exempt it.
“Profiting from portrayals” MZ has 200+ films. Less than 30% are traditional settings. Your entire argument is built on a minority of the catalog, filtered through a lens of cultural grievance. That’s not analysis, that’s a feeling dressed up as a fact.
People are asking questions? Good. Watch the films. The full ones. From start to finish.

It is sacrosanct to your self actualisation that you see yourself worthy of the highest form of respect as a human being and not anything less because you’re a woman.
Again, a moving woman WILL learn feminism.
Better go and get your degrees up as a woman.
Stop posturing for people who don’t care about you.
Your ability to cook or clean is useless in the real world unless you re making money with it.
