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.
my mom once told me “accountability will always feel like an attack when you are not ready to acknowledge how your behavior harms others” and that shit is real.
I know, with increasing precision, what I want my life to contain. Meaningful work. Financial ease. A home that feels expansive and alive. Books everywhere. A table with people around it. Work that travels further than I do. Time to think. Time to write.
If you are a Nigerian 🇳🇬, you don't need to bribe anybody to get police character report for immigration.

Introverts can stay inside for days and weeks. No plans. No people. No drama. No nothing. Just chilling alone. Reading. Meditating. Listening music. Staring at walls. Watching movies. Walking. Snacking. Napping. Thinking about life and all. And trust me, they regret nothing.
The best advice I heard from a stranger was this: give luck more opportunities to bump into you. Leave the house, take a different road, travel, say yes to new experiences. The more you do, the more life surprises you in the best ways.
I think one of the most heartfelt experiences in life is discovering that someone genuinely enjoys your presence. Not what you provide, Not your accomplishments. Just you, your thoughts, your energy, your existence.
Can’t lie to you. If you don’t make a move, you will see literal clowns race past you. Clowns.
Nothing concern life with ‘I am a smart, educated, experienced person’.
You don’t act, you remain there.
Men already know this. The consistency in communication at the beginning is to get you hooked. Women need to understand that talk is cheap. It takes no effort to send Gmorning/Gnite texts and in return they get a foolish woman’s devotion. The only true measure of a man’s feelings is material investment. Whether he admits it or not acts of service deepens his feelings. The less he does and gives the less he cares
the best thing you can do for yourself is actively increase your surface area for luck to hit you. go outside, try new cafes, museums, events, take a new route home, speak to people, ask questions, side quest. the more you do, the more serendipity and synchronicity will find you.
Good morning, @tokunbo_wahab, @muyiwag, and @Lawma_gov.
Who will be responsible for clearing this waste when your PSP operators have not been seen for over three months? Or are you waiting for a cholera outbreak before taking action? And should the residents resort to indiscriminate waste disposal now, you will be quick to set your cameras to arrest and prosecute them.
This is the reality facing many households across Lagos, and it is and really embarrassing. Lagosians should not be forced to live with uncollected waste for months.
“Cleaner Lagos” can only become a reality when the agencies responsible for waste management fulfill their responsibilities 😡🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽♂️🤦🏽���️
