A little girl in Boston went home one day and asked her Nigerian mother if she could change her name to Zoe.
Nobody at school could say Uzoamaka.
Her mother was cooking. She didn't even turn around.
"If they can learn to say Tchaikovsky, Michelangelo, and Dostoyevsky, they can learn to say Uzoamaka."
That girl kept her name.
Then she went to Hollywood and won three Emmy Awards.
And now the whole world knows exactly how to say Uzoamaka Aduba.
Your name is not a burden. It's a prophecy.
@official_QV First, this isn't about a wife that works but a wife that's ready to support the family through thick and thin.
God, that woman is really a blessing to his life
525,000 a year
10,000 a week
1,400 a day.
These are the number of men that die by suicide.
Happy Men's Mental Health Month.
To every man reading this: you are not a burden, and you do not have to carry the weight of the world alone. Speaking up is real strength.
Thinking on the women. 3 weeks without a bath or change of clothes.
Some of them might have seen their periods. No pad, no change of outfit. Right there in their puddle of blood 💔
Gosh! 💔💔
One hospital bill can wipe out 5 years of your savings.
Don't just hustle without taking care of your health
Don't sacrifice your sleep
Don't sacrifice your diet.
When you're looking for things to protect, choose your health first.
@it_Rutie@William19Prisca If they like they should sleep with each other wives and partner, nothing concern me with the gist.
My main headache right now is
WHERE IS OUR CHILDREN AND TEACHERS THAT WAS KIDNAPPED????

bro to bro: if you like skinnier girls, get yourself a skinny girl. if you like thicker girls, get yourself a thick girl. if you like fitness girls, get yourself a fit girl. you are entitled to your own preferences.
but what you are not going to do bro, is date a girl who is not your type and make her feel inferior to other girls.
The NDC was told to hold their party primaries. But they decided to hold a general election.
From Delta to Sokoto, Kano to Lafia, Lagos to Ogbia. All across Nigeria, people trooped en masse to be counted. The NDC is the only Democratic Party in Nigeria. What I saw today was shocking. Nigerians are tired, people are genuinely fed up. They want the APC gone!
This is going to be the mother of all campaigns.
Your SPOUSE is the one who'll sit beside you when your PARENTS DIE. who'll hold your hand through CHILDBIRTH. who might have to BATHE YOU if you're ever too sick to stand. this isn't just about BUTTERFLIES or DATE NIGHTS. it's about choosing someone who SHOWS UP... in GRIEF, in MESS, in UNCERTAINTY. so no, LOVE ALONE isn't enough. COMMITMENT, MATURITY, and the ability to ENDURE life's ugly parts... that's what sustains a MARRIAGE. because when life gets PAINFULLY REAL, ROMANCE won't carry you... CHARACTER will. and the truth is, FOREVER is only possible with someone who knows how to STAY when it's HARD TO LOVE.
A woman was in a coma in the hospital, and she was continuously raped until she got pregnant. The hospital found out and carried out investigations and found out a male employee has been raping her all the while she was in coma.
A 3 year old baby was raped by a grown man.
A homeless mad woman on the street was raped by a man.
A lady who was fully covered was raped by a man.
A lady who was sleeping on her bed in her own home was raped and killed.
A daughter was raped by her own father.
I can go on and on…
But once these heartbreaking stories make it to the media, some of you immediately start looking for ways to blame the victim, talking about
“women need to learn how to avoid being abused”
“Maybe she’s this, maybe she’s that”
Are you people crazy?
Instead of teaching men that no matter what, even if they see a woman walking naked, they still have no right to touch or abuse or rape her.
The women in all the scenarios above, how exactly were they supposed to avoid being raped?
Make it make sense.

By the way for those of you who are not aware, or maybe you are aware but you have forgotten, I just want to remind you:
When the terrorists went to Ogbomosho few days ago and kidnapped 45 people, they kidnapped 2 year old kids.
Read that again:
2 year olds were kidnapped.
2 year old little kids are currently in the den of terrorists, as I type this.
Just incase we have forgotten as a country. I want to remind you all again.
No thanks to you @WhatsApp because of your new insensitive update of strangers, whose numbers I don't have saved,viewing my status, I can't celebrate my daughter's graduation the way I want on my status because it's not for everyone who's not family to see. Fix it for God's sake!
Dear Seyi Tinubu, has the rice distribution campaigns stopped? Just to let you know that the rice lasted in homes only for a few days, and received by a selected few out of 200 million Nigerians.
Please keep your rice and provide Nigerians with the basic amenities including securities, cos only the living can eat.
