Inside danfo this morning, the bus fare was 800 Naira. The woman beside me stretched 700 Naira to the conductor who rejected it immediately with “e gba owo yin pada jare. 800 ni moto”.
The woman replied “na 700 I get my brother, no vex, my uncle”
He didn’t let her land as he had already shifted attention to other passengers. He still replied “mama, mio gbo pa. E fun mi ni 800 mi. Eyin le nra epo si moto fun mi ni?”
The woman kept begging, he also insisted on his full 800 naira while insulting her. The insults were getting to me and since I already gave him 1k and my 200 Naira change was with him, I said “condor, remove her remaining 100 Naira from my change, give me 100”.
The woman looked at me with bad left eye reading “talo ran werey eleyi nise”. She didn’t even let me read meaning to her eyes finish before she shouted “uncle, don’t pay for me. I didn’t ask for your money. Because of 100 Naira, he has insulted me enough and you still want to pay him. Didn’t you hear all the insults? Lai lai. If he can’t accept abeg, he should getaway”.
I looked at the condor, “alaye, 200 naira mi da?” He gave me my money and requested that 700 naira from her. She said “never. Upon all the insults wey you give me? If I pay you 700 after those insults, make I die”.
The conductor started shouting and ready to drag her down at the next bus stop but he no fit. She said that the insults have reduced the money to 500 Naira and she stretched the 500 to him. I was just laughing. I have never seen monetized insults before.
Another passenger now added that what if the conductor start praying for her, will he get his money back? She said “Yes, he should work for his balance”.
I swear, this guy prayed for her from Anthony to Onipanu to collect his 200 Naira.
There are moments money can’t buy, and today was one of them.
I took my one-year-old daughter to visit my 90-year-old grandmother. Three generations under one roof.
My daughter didn’t allow Grandma rest for one minute. She was touching everything, climbing everywhere, asking for attention, and turning the whole house upside down. 😂
The funny part? Grandma didn’t complain. She kept smiling, laughing, and watching her with so much joy. I guess this is the kind of stress that adds years to your life.
Watching the oldest and the youngest in the family together reminded me how beautiful life is. One has seen almost a century, the other is just starting hers.
May we all be alive to watch generations after us grow. ❤️

HOW TO PUT PAYMENT NARRATION IN YOUR BANK TRANSFER IN 2026
Tax is mainly focused on taxable income and this taxable income is basically money paid to you in exchange for a particular service
So if you refuse to put the right payment narration, you may face some problems or even pay more, when filing your T A X Return
If you describe the payment narration correctly, you only pay tax when required... and nothing extra.
SIMPLE DESCRIPTIONS YOU CAN USE (LEGALLY)
1. When a Family member sends you money, they should write
"Gift / Family support" in the payment narration
2. When a Friend or anyone pays you back the money they owe you, tell them to write:
"Refund / Reimbursement"
3. When you move your own money to another account, write:
"Personal transfer/savings."
4. When someone lends you money, he or she should write:
"Loan received"
5. If you put your own money into a business, write:
"Capital contribution"
6. If you operate a POS and your customers want to make a transfer to you
They should write
POS transaction
7. You are a business owner and you sell things
Your customer should put narration like this
Payment for two cartons of Indomie
To be continued...
Ignorance of the law is no excuse
Most Nigerians don’t need ₦50m.
They need financial sense.
Because if ₦50m enter your hand today:
– You’ll price houses in Lekki
– You’ll go Dubai “to clear your head”
– You’ll buy iPhone 17 for validation
– You’ll start a business you know nothing about
– You’ll give money to friends to “show love”
Relax.
Here’s what ₦50m should do:
₦10m → Apartment (2 years rent)
₦20m → Lock at 17–20% APY (₦280k–₦330k monthly)
₦10m → Dividend stocks (UBA/GTCO/ZENITH)
₦5m → Learn skills that make money
₦5m → Liquidity + emergency
Money no dey finish.
People finish money.
School won’t teach you this.
I just did.
Someone tagged me to a post someone made here on X. The quote reads: "For a young Christian seeking a close relationship with God, the Catholic Church is not for you."
In the comment section, she mentioned that her reason for saying this is because in the Catholic Church, the prayers are already written, and it feels like mere recitation. She asks: “When do you actually get to communicate with God in your own words and express how you feel?”
While I commend her openness, I find the post a bit shocking because the young lady mentioned in one of the replies under the post that she is a Catholic and even confirmed. The sacrament of confirmation is the sacrament of Christian maturity. A confirmed Catholic is considered mature in the faith. But the post shows a misunderstanding of what prayer truly is in the Catholic tradition.
This response is for every other person who may feel the same way about prayers in the Catholic Church.
First, the Catholic Church does not restrict anyone to written prayers. In fact, the Church encourages spontaneous, personal, heartfelt prayer. We have countless devotions that require personal communication with God:
1. Visitation to the Blessed Sacrament/Adoration, where you sit alone with Jesus and speak to Him freely from your heart.
2. Meditation on Scripture (Lectio Divina), where you reflect and talk to God personally.
3. Private prayer at home, morning and night, where you use your own words.
4. The Rosary, which includes deep personal meditation on the mysteries of Christ’s life.
5. Silent contemplation, where no written word is needed - only your heart before God.
Written prayers are not barriers - they are guides, just as Jesus Himself taught a written prayer: “Our Father…”(Mt 6:9).
So the issue is not that the Catholic Church prevents anyone from speaking to God. It is that many have not yet discovered the depth and freedom of Catholic prayer. The Church gives you both: ancient prayers that form the soul and the freedom to speak to God in your own words.
