Marriage requires constant communication. Regular check-ins. Sacrifice. Patience. Choosing your spouse even when it’s inconvenient. Learning, unlearning, apologizing, forgiving, and showing up over and over again.
It’s work.
Beautiful work, but work nonetheless.
Kana zaune zaka dinga ganin reasons din da suka saka feminism yake raising a Arewa and why young women are very disinterested in marriage… sai dai in you are dishonest to yourself.
A HUGE fan of the push to keep under-16s off social media. I think it's an excellent idea, and NONE of the alleged positives, combined, amount to even a fraction of the immense, often irreversible negatives. I hope governments and society implement as quickly as possible
Kawaii Allah Ya tsare. Marriage is nothing to play with or rush into. Only the grace of God can help you.. not your own wisdom or anything else wallahi. May God help all married couples be strong and committed to serving Him and caring for each other.
Nigeria has a serious processing problem.
Processing becomes extremely difficult when logistics, security, and power (electricity) are all very expensive.
Take jam-making, for example. We could be making a killing in this sector. Yet fruits go to waste every season simply because there is no reliable electricity to preserve them. Fuel costs eat deeply into overhead, and you have to pay duties at multiple checkpoints when transporting food across states. How do local producers and processors compete with international brands that don’t face these same challenges?
friendship; what a concept man!
my guy loaned his friend part of the money he used to japa a few years ago, now he has paid my guy back. but earlier this year he asked for his help to clear two lexus cars he shipped in, as he didn't have any family or someone he can trust in lagos.
as per his guy, he was happy to help. did all the running around and got the cars out quickly, then was arranging for them to be sent to asaba as directed, only to be told that one of the cars was for him.
mind you, he got married late last year and they are expecting. he used to tell me how pained he was that his wife takes cabs to ante-natal and how he was hoping for a miracle to buy to a car before the baby arrives, as it will make their lives easier.
well, christmas has come early for them. hard guy like me had tears in my eyes, cos this is so thoughtful.
One of my biggest dreams is to build a company that creates opportunities for women who started later than expected.
Internships and graduate trainee programs for women in their late 20s and 30s. Remote jobs for women in their 40s and 50s.
Call Of My Life is now one of the Top 10 highest-grossing Nigerian films of all time. This one is special. A small film made with so much love, faith, and the belief that audiences would show up for a simple, beautiful love story.
Thank you to everyone who bought a ticket, told a friend, dragged a friend, laughed, cried, posted, reviewed, and supported Call Of My Life.
We made history together.

"Peki sadece çikolata için mi?" dedim. "İlk başta öyleydi" dedi, "Ama geçen gün silgim yere yuvarlandığında, normalde hiç konuşmadığım çocuk sıranın altına eğilip bana uzattı. Sırf o çikolatayı kazanabilmek için herkes birbiriyle yarışıyor ama öğretmen aslinda bize iyiliği fark etmeyi öğretiyor.. Çünkü arkadaşımızı yazabilmek için tüm hafta sınıfta kim kime iyi davranmış diye dedektif gibi izliyoruz."
Kızım dahil bütün öğrenciler Pazartesi sabahlarını büyük bir heyecanla bekliyor.. Bir kalıbı kırmak için bazen sadece küçük bir çikolataya ve dünyayı çocukların gözünden görebilen bir öğretmene ihtiyaç varmış.
Kızımın öğretmeni, sınıftaki ilişkileri düzeltmek için muazzam bir yöntem bulmuş. Cuma günleri her çocuk, hafta boyu kendisine en iyi davranan arkadaşının adını ve sebebini bir kağıda yazıp kutuya atıyor. Kimse kimsenin notunu görmüyor.
Pazartesi günü öğretmen sonucu açıklıyor. Kimin kaç oy aldığını söylemiyor, sadece haftanın şampiyonuna çikolata veriyor. Bazen şampiyon sayısı ikiye, üçe çıkıyor. Kızım dün akşam "Anne, sınıfta gizli bir rekabet var. Herkes çikolatayı kapmak için birbirine deli gibi iyi davranıyor" dedi. ( devamı 👇)

She kept it for 8 straight days, followed the instructions on how to preserve since they were fresh flowers, kept pruning and recording each day 🥲🥲🥲.
Now that they are dead she wants to frame them 😃😃😃.
I don’t understand the logic but she was so happy, and that was enough.
You never forget how someone supports or makes you feel during pregnancy, postpartum, miscarriage/childloss, loss of a parent/sibling, grief in general. It stays with you and changes the way you see that person for life.
Tomatoes need olive oil to release their lycopene. Spinach needs lemon to release its iron. Turmeric needs black pepper to release its curcumin. Most nutrients need a partner to maximizetheir benefits. Cook with that in mind. 🫶🏽🫶🏽🫶🏽
