Grateful beyond words to be featured on the cover of Rolling Stone Africa this Juneteenth. A day that honors freedom, resilience, and the generations who paved the way makes this moment even more meaningful. This cover is bigger than me it's a reflection of the communities, dreams, and legacies that continue to move us forward. Happy Juneteenth❤️🖤💚

Dare I say musical artists need to take notes from her. Evaluating those deals they get off jump will seriously save a lot of them the heartache they usually face with 360 deals

[Pablo 🇿🇦 @khosireign08]

She rejected teams that wanted her to sign to a yearly contract. She said she didn't want to be stucked with people she might probably end up not liking. She's on a monthly contract with her current team. A smart Queen.

The last patient this happened to on my call nearly died on the operating table. Omo, women really do suffer because labour (And all the ways it can suddenly go south), is absolutely not to be trifled with

This is one of the most painful things anyone could experience in their life time. One of my patients, just pushed out a baby, baby on her chest, we waited 30mins for the placenta to come out, after which Dr had to go in there and manually remove it. She SCREAMED OMG. She kept begging the Dr to stop but we just kept consoling her(it had to come out otherwise she could bleed out). I can still hear her screams. She kept saying “this is worse than child birth” pain meds given prior(she had a natural birth) but she still felt EVERYTHING. It didn’t detach, we ended up in the OR to help control her bleeding. At this point she had lost about 2000ccs of blood. (500cc is the limit for vag deliveries) This thing is excruciating. By the time we got to the OR, more blood loss. They had to put her under general. Blood transfusion began. Placenta out, Bakri, bleeding stopped after they called out an OB emergency to perform a hysterectomy. She almost lost her uterus. Whole time her husband was weeping begging us to not let her die.

This is actually a brilliant observation that deserves a proper answer. You are not wrong about what you are seeing. But what you are describing is exactly how languages disappear without anyone noticing.

Adamawa alone has over 40 documented languages. Bura, Vere, Chamba, Gaanda, Lala, Bacchama, Bata, Marghi and more and no they are not variations as you pointed out.

But most of them are slowly being swallowed by Hausa and Fulani because those are the languages of trade, mobility and survival.

So yes, your Borno security guard speaks Shuwa Arabic and your Sokoto okada man speaks Hausa and they understand each other perfectly. That does not mean only one language exists. It means one language won the economic argument. This is what linguists call language assimilation. The dominant language does not erase the others overnight. It just makes them less useful for daily survival until the younger generation stops learning them entirely.

Now here are the facts. Ethnologue, which is the world's most authoritative database on languages, currently documents 520 living indigenous languages in Nigeria alone. Not dialects. Languages. Nigeria has also already lost 12 indigenous languages or more to extinction. Gone forever.

The Middle Belt is where this becomes undeniable. Plateau State alone has over 50 distinct languages. Keyword "Dinstinct".

Benue has Tiv, Idoma, Igede and more. Taraba has communities that cannot understand their neighbours two villages away without a translator. Your Yoruba example actually proves the point perfectly. The fact that a Yoruba person can move across the Southwest and be understood is evidence of one dominant language absorbing regional variations over centuries. That process happened. It is still happening everywhere else in Nigeria right now.

Now I am willing to bet you have never heard of Hyam, Ngas, Mwaghavul, Berom, Amo, Buji, Sura, Anaguta, or Irigwe from Plateau State. Or Kilba, Huba, Bura-Pabir, and Chibok from Borno. Or Mumuye, Jenjo, Yukuben, and Wurkum from Taraba. Or Tur, Nyandang, Kugama and Taram further into the riverine communities nobody talks about. Or what about Igala, Ebira, Bassange, Bassa-Nge, Kakanda and Oworo from Kogi alone. I have not even touched Rivers, Cross River, Bayelsa, Edo, Ondo, or Nasarawa yet. You want to know exactly where each of these is spoken? You will have to tour Nigeria for that. And I promise you, this country will humble you in ways no map ever could. The 500 languages are not cap. Most of them are just quietly dying (Bura has an estimated 11,000 speakers with most young Bura people now not able to speak the language) while we debate whether they exist. And that is the real conversation Nigeria should be having.

Day 43 of #JusticeForOchanya 💔
Another day, my heart still aches for our little Ochanya. Sent to “family” for safety and school, this innocent 13-year-old from Benue was raped repeatedly from age 8 by her uncle Andrew Ogbuja (a lecturer) and his son Victor. The abuse destroyed her body with vesicovaginal fistula. She smiled through the pain until it took her life in October 2018.
Andrew walks free. Victor remains a fugitive. The silence from @BenuePoliceNG, @benuestategovt and @PoliceNG protects them.
We demand: Arrest Victor Ogbuja NOW. Re-open the case. Protect our girls.
Ochanya, your blood still cries out. Rest in power, beautiful angel. We see you, we feel you.
We are not tired.
We are not forgetting.
We are not stopping. 🙏

Let’s tag the @PoliceNG more 🙏🏽🙏🏽
