While some are still on going, I hope to get to master the skills I've learned so far, and get to use them some days..
2025 will be magnificent as I'd do and explore more.
"Let her go" by Ed-Sheran still remains one of the best and realistic lyrics.
Not just about a "her/he", but the reality that we only miss the sun when it starts to snow.
How can we appreciate light when we've not seen darkness?
"Ogun kill this bank, Ogun kill that bank."
If Ogun actually kills us, how will you withdraw your money?
Just tweet @kudahelp_ng, let's sort out whatever is causing fight.
The finish line is close now. Not as an end, but as a reminder that every difficult step, every setback, and every long night was shaping something greater than a medical student.
LAST DAYS AT FORCADO HIGH SCHOOL!
Somewhere between trying to understand the human body, I found myself understanding a little more about resilience, suffering, and what it truly means to care.
Yesterday in church, a woman who’s almost 80 came out to testify. She said that last week, someone gifted her ₦20k. That was the first time in her entire life she ever had ₦20k in her account that wasn’t for medication or food.
The pastor asked if she was serious, and she said yes.
The pastor then gifted her ₦150k. Her account number was read out, and before the end of the service, her account already had more than ₦500k.
I got a call from my daughter’s high school principal today. He said she’d been caught operating an “unauthorized commercial enterprise” out of the girls’ locker room. My stomach DROPPED. I left work immediately, already imagining the worst: Drugs. Vapes. Stolen stuff. Some TikTok side hustle gone wrong. By the time I got to the school, I was preparing myself for lawyers, suspension, maybe even police involvement. I walk into the principal’s office….…and my daughter is sitting there quietly with a spiral notebook full of spreadsheets. Not cash. Not customer lists. Spreadsheets. Turns out, she’d noticed some girls at school were quietly struggling: • no money for feminine hygiene products • no winter jackets • wearing the same clothes every week after budget cuts hit families hard So she started her own underground support network. She collected donated jackets, hygiene products, gloves, and clothes from wealthier neighborhoods.
Then she cataloged everything by size and need in her notebook like a tiny operations manager. And from her gym locker, she distributed items discreetly to students who needed them — no embarrassment, no announcements, no attention. The principal wasn’t calling because she was in trouble. He called because the school found out… and wanted my permission to turn her “illegal locker room business” into an official school charity program.
I thought I was driving to the biggest parenting nightmare of my life. Instead, I walked into one of the proudest moments I’ve ever had as a parent.
My guy reached out to me that I should accompany him to his fiancée’s house to meet with her parents this morning. I nack my native, put fuel for car, then we drove down to Tsafe. The brother-in-law was with us cuz he’s the one leading us.
Next thing I go hear be say I go need park my car for Tsafe, then we will take a bike to the village about a 20-minute ride. I say, No wahala.We park car keep.
Next thing ehn, we will need to drop our phones in the car. I ask why. He say Sheikh Gumi brothers fit stop us for road collect our phones.
Sharply, I told him, I am not going o! What if they decide not to collect phones this time around and whisk away with us instead?
Omo, my friend and the in-law don go; I use God escort them, they will come back and meet me where I parked. I no dey take that kind risk, abeg. Pikin and wife dey house.
A pure definition of what it means to be biased.
When "The so-called "men of God" you mentioned come online to say "Pray for Nigeria" , we criticize them constructively or head on, WE DON'T HAIL THEM.
Check the trend going on X about a "so-called man of God".
Why are we angry?
The so-called "men of God" come on the internet to say things like this on a daily basis and you people will hail them... Anybody that tries to expose how ridiculous it sounds una go say "leave them for God"
We are not ready at all
Happy Children’s Day.
It’s supposed to be a day of joy, but lately it doesn’t feel like that. Not when children are being taken, not when schools don’t feel as safe as they should, not when parents send their kids out and pray harder than usual.
Childhood should be simple, laughter, play, and coming back home safe. But for some families right now, that simplicity has been replaced with fear and waiting.
Still, we can’t stop hoping. Hoping that things change. Hoping that children can go back to just being children again.
Before I got married, I saw other people get married and how they had marital issues, and how they handle them.
In my little life, I grew up with guys. Lots of them. I understand the financial stress and the mental pain it does to them, yet they don't get to speak out but keep grinding. Doing what it takes to provide and stay liquid financially.
I've seen how financial bankruptcy has dealt with marriages. I understand what it's like to be up there today and down at the lowest bottom tomorrow. It affects the man, his wife, and also the kids' academics.
The worst part, some send their wife and kids to the village while he moves into a one room apartment in "Face me i slap you" house. You will never know that that man was once a DON in the business world. A wrong investment, business, or wrong financial decision without proper research dropped him that low. Yes It is human to make mistakes, but some mistakes can be costly.
Life can come at you after marriage. This is why I love my husband that much to be a solid financial defense he can fall back on. That man loves me so much, and I'm very much concerned about his finances. This is why I keep doing business investment, land investments, stock market investments, and also earning from my job.
I'm doing this to keep him afloat, that no matter what happens, he has something tangible to fall to, on a rainy day. I am this invested in my husband because he loves me that much. There's nothing he's holding back from me. Financially, i know every amount he has on his 4 bank accounts and ATM pin. I have access to any of them. He leads me aright, he communicates, he's wise, and pushes me to be more. He is that man. He leads while I submit. There's absolutely nothing i wouldn't do for him.
I'm not a "perfect" wife, I have my issues. But then again, I focus on his strength, and he focuses on mine too while we work on our weaknesses to be better as we grow together.
Your marriage can be heaven on earth. It only depends on You and who you choose to do life with. When you both are aligned, and love is in the center, there's nothing you wouldn't do for each other. There are good marriages out there. I'm telling you for a fact 100%.
