Not to be that person, but our literary/visual understanding of romantic expressions as Africans are very much defined by white standards. Yes, even in love, we are colonised.
Otherwise what concerns an African woman with hair tucking? Her Afro (or braids) don’t move that way 😭
Our mothers didn't really do all of this. It wasn't always possible. The labour was passed on to daughters. We made fires, put those pots on the stove. They'd do the touch-ups for flavour but we did most of the work. We started cooking way before teenagehood.
Actually this is a “class action” I can get behind on my own dime. I’ll have a team do some preliminary research and if we decide to pursue, I’ll give an update. We need more public interest litigation.
🚨The Current Normal in Nigeria
Imagine a mother watch her little daughter die of hunger right in her arms after 76 days in captivity, right inside a country they call theirs 💔
In less than a fortnight, toddlers will have spent two months (60 whole days) in the forest with animals in the name of kidnappers.
Unlike the ‘bring back our girls’ that went international, there isn’t even a hashtag for these kids.
Nigerians, it’s not fair o!!!💔
When Nigerians continue to memeify our problems, this is what happens. Keep making your jokes and skits and calling them “satire”. The people you are doing it for will satirize you back and in a crueler way.
Omo! Do you people know how insane it is for terrorists to kidnap a retired general, kill him and then return his body in a handover ceremony where they took pictures knowing they'd leave unchallenged?
Do you people know what kind of trouble we are in?
Today’s a public holiday, most are at home relaxing or just having fun. Guess who are denied of doing such? The children kidnapped in Oyo, Borno and now Kogi. It’s almost a month with no food, proper care or shelter.
Pls Bring Them Home 🙏🏾
It always beats my brain that Nigeria has a dedicated national programme & budget to fund the rehabilitation of terrorists but has nothing dedicated for the victims of the terrorists who are traumatized for life.
Guys!! It’s cold very outside! I just stepped outside my house to feel it. And if it’s this cold in Lagos, it’s colder in Ibadan and much even colder in the bushes! These children and their teachers are shivering right now! This is their 27th night! God!😭😭
No kind of poverty should make you partake in a terrorist giveaway, man. Money you know likely came from the ransom paid by families of kidnapped victims?? Haba what kind of society are we??
In fact every single one of you should be treated as a criminal.
Are you aware that 176 kidnapped victims from Woro community in Kwara state are still in the terrorist den since 3rd February?
The victims are infants, toddlers, pregnant women, nursing mothers, children, women & men.
While other children are going to school today, our Borno & Oyo children are in the bush in the hands of terrorists.
Children as little as 2years old.
Never stop speaking about them!!!
