Seeing all the videos of fans celebrating Wizkid’s birthday yesterday is so beautiful. He earned every love he gets from his fans across the world, I’m sure he’s somewhere watching everything with smiles on his face.

“I’ve loved Wizkid so much, I was listening to Holla At Your Boy and all that with my snapback. Then I started writing out his lyrics to learn and mime to his songs when I was in J.S.S 2. Wizkid is our Don, he’s what Lil Wayne used to be to us”

BIG WIZ isn’t even aware, yet FC came together, funded the celebration themselves, and turned his birthday into a memorable event. That’s not just fandom, that’s community, loyalty, and genuine appreciation.

When people celebrate you even in your absence, you’ve built something far bigger than fame. You’ve built love. 🦅❤️

I’ve actually purchased frozen foods from almost all of them physically, except few., I remember all their faces. Ofcourse except AishVogue

Very hardworking women
😂😂😂😂👏👏👏👏👏

[Baby Zee❤️😂😂🤌🤌(Ólùkọ́ Yorùbá) @hayzed0709]

I've never bought bras for myself before. 😭 My mum was always the one that noticed they were worn out and she'd replace them.
Recently, I realized she had stopped buying them... and I wasn't buying them either. 😂
So today, I said, this story must change.
I entered the market with ₦60k, confidently planning to buy about four bras and some pants. 🤭
The saleslady measured me, brought out my correct size, and for the first time in my life, I wore a bra that actually fit. Omo... everything sat exactly where it was supposed to. No spilling by the sides, no floating ontop, no adjusting every five minutes. 😭🤌
Then I asked for the price.
She said, ₦45,000.
I laughed and asked, How many is my chest sef that I'll wear a ₦45k bra? What exactly am I putting inside?😭😂
This woman looked at me and calmly said,
It's you that's carrying it, so you might not know what is there. We that are seeing it know. The one you picked is ₦45,000.
Omo...
My account bled instantly. 😭😂
At this point, I need to go and apologize to my mum. 😭😂
Mummy, abeg... I now understand the sacrifices you've been making all these years. Please don't retire from buying my bras yet. I'm not financially stable enough for this level of adulthood. 🤲😭

".....he was cooking, he was cleaning, he was leading, not just sitting depressed....."
That's a real man she got and it made her honouring him very easy.
But when a woman is dealing with a jobless, lazy emitional and egocentric sapa bien alpha maggot, her life would be miserable and she would be bound to misbehave.
You all remember Peter Nwachukwu right? Osinachi was all and humble and she still ended up dead.
The partner you are dealing with is very important.

Are there any bad songs from 2016? Like globally ?

[KT @Kahytie]

@kunle_kenny A lot of women give out their numbers to avoid this kind of assault but when we explain it, it sounds like a lie. Just look at this oversize elephant.

[Chidera Okere @deratoby]

@kunle_kenny I used to refuse to give out my number until I realized that it's safer for me to just give it out.

Some men can't take "NO" & it's really weird
