Maybe if the Ooni of Ife had sponsored children from Ife to the International Mathematics Olympiad instead of using that money to buy a car and give chieftaincy title to a paedophile WHO RAPES CHILDREN, those grumbling wouldn't feel so bad about watching Igbo children win awards
At some point, I thought Evelyn Hugo in “The Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo” was real.
I wanted to Google her at some point. The writing of that book was too good!
My baby was 5 months old when I started noticing build up of white substance on her tongue. I was told to clean her tongue with cotton wool and warm water which I did daily but it kept getting worse.
Shortly, the white substance started turning black and two days later, my daughter’s tongue was completely black. I was so scared my husband and I rushed her to the hospital. We saw a doctor who prescribed Nystatin drops for us to drop on her tongue 4 times daily.
I started using it and there was slight improvement but we kept going back and forth, one day, it seems like it’s working and the next, it’s like nothing is happening. I got so worried and started crying which prompted my husband to call his mum.
Mama came, met me crying and just laughed. She said the solution is the sap of a tree and we can only get the sap early in the morning before sunrise.
I was so uncomfortable with the whole thing but I needed a solution. The next morning, she came with the sap and cleaned the tongue herself, and by afternoon of same day, the black lining was beginning to peel off as she sucks.
I was the one that woke my husband the next day to go get the sap and by the 3rd day, my baby’s tongue was back to normal.
There are traditional ways to some things, you just have to find a balance.
Peter Obi wants one term as a president to fix Nigeria, when he failed to transform Anambra for 8 solid years; That's one state in 36.
Atiku gave up the chance to lead his people, to become VP. As a governor he could've easily had the power to build his state mind you.
Tinubu is seeking a second term when we are barely surviving his first; No promises has been fulfilled and evident to Nigerians.
The three major candidates Nigerians bank on.
#BBNaija's Angel lost her first boyfriend in 2019 when she was just 19. He slept one night and never woke up again. A young man who knew he had found something rare… gone too soon. Angel grieved that man properly. She honored him so much for 2 years. She allowed that grief to sit in her chest and change how she moved in the world. Angel carried that weight into every room she walked into after.
I knew how much grief she carried from losing him. He knew he wanted to marry her, but he died so young. May his soul rest in peace. That first love deserved to hold her forever. It was difficult moving on, but she went to BBNaija in different seasons and had a lot of back and forth with several men. Even women in the house were jealous of her, with the way she pulls men effortlessly.
Boma screamed at her in the house, told her she was not his mate, came for her during a task clash, and then had the nerve to be crawling close to her behind the scenes. I love when she clocked him and how his own housemates clocked it, noting that he had not even liked Angel from the start and was using proximity to her strategically. He eventually had to sit down at the reunion and apologize. 🫣
Then there was Cross. Angel gave that man everything...cooked for him, lent him money, nursed him when he was sick, booked him spa treatments and he did not return the same energy. He couldn't even hold a proper intellectual conversation. She poured and poured into that situationship and got nothing back.
And Emmanuel? He was in a full relationship with Liquorose and still found time to whisper in Angel's ear at the finale that he could not wait to see her outside. These men were coming for her from every angle, and then the internet wanted to paint Angel as the problem.
Maria Chike, who later snatched someone's husband, slut-shamed her at every chance she could get. The slut-shaming she received for simply existing and being magnetic was embarrassing. Men were throwing themselves at her left and right, and somehow she was the villain.
Aside from Tacha, I've never loved a BBNaija housemate the way I love Angel.
Then, she returned to the house for the ALLSTARS season and fell in love with Soma, but she is one of the smartest people ever, and she eventually knew he had nothing to offer her, so she bolted at the slightest inconvenience and good thing she did. Soma never fully let go of his ex-girlfriend, Hilda, even while publicly dating Angel.
Reports alleged he was visiting Hilda's family in Port Harcourt to declare his intention to marry her while Angel was out here buying him gifts and loving him out loud. There were even claims that he told Hilda their relationship was a strategic move for "shippers' money" rather than genuine romance. Meanwhile, Angel was being harassed at 3 a.m. by Hilda's friends calling her a prostitute, yet she was still somehow painted as the villain.
How do you bag a woman like Angel and hide the fact that you have an ex-girlfriend whom you're actively dating?
I'm glad that after all the heartbreak from men, a woman finally gives her the love she deserves, and I wish her a happy married life.
I love it so much when women upgrade and when the upgrade is everything and more.
Tumi is the class and peace Angel deserves after so much chaos.
A rich partner.
A Black queen.
A Cute Stud.
Spoils her silly.
Actively affectionate.
Less drama.
Zero side-chic drama.
And a ring on her finger in less than a year of dating.
Angel won, and if you think otherwise, you're just homophobic. 🫣🏃🏿♂️

I find it fascinating that the speed of light is the universal constant, and somehow the Bible says that God’s first command was “Let there be light”.
Like think about it, if you were Moses trying to invent a religion from your imagination, there was nothing intuitive about that as your starting point 5,000 years ago.
Consider that people were thinking the sun revolves around the earth even as late as Middle Ages.
I have never come across a kid that suffered so much like Ochanya.
Sh returns from school 2pm.
Victor returns home by 3 and then forces himself on her.
He continued r@ping her for months.
Then one day, the Father came home and caught his son raping the innocent girl with tears in her eyes crying for help.
When she saw her "Father" she thought help has arrived.
Instead of stopping his son in his early 20, he pushed the son away from her, and climbed the innocent girl.
The next day, the man canceled his 1pm lecture and returned home very early from work to wait for the girl.
Immediately she arrived from school, he began to rape her. His son walked in, and took turn.
It continued for years.
Father and son raping a girl of eight years turn by turn, year after year—tell me something more cruel and barbaric.
The little girl from 8 years became 10, and became very sick.
Winfred walked into them one day raping her and instead of reporting, she protected her father and sibling.
The aunty, Winifred's mum found out, but she kept shut. When the doctor's test results came out, the family hid the results.
Yes, she's an accomplice.
At the early stage of discovering that Ochanya was sick, it could have been easier to treat, but she deprived her treatment.
While the girl was sick, it didn't stop Winifred's Father and brother from still raping her.
For five years, nobody in the family reported the case to the police. They were all aware.
It was Ochanya that opened up when she was already dying, but Mr. Andrew like a Nigerian politician still fought his way through the case.
Ochanya finally d!ed at 13, guess what! Winifred's Father influenced the doctor's autopsy.
That's how heartless humans can be.
Winfred is living her career as an "influencer" on X. Victor, the rapist is living his dream career as musician and Winfred always promotes his music here. The rapist-father is still a lecturer teaching teenagers. (Imagine a rapist among teenagers).
But they deprived Ochanya her dream of becoming a medica doctor.
Now Winifred just returned to X with a banger post, smiling sayiythe trend is funny, like she is not a willing accomplice of rape, but another family would weep at the thought of her family's wickedness.
How do they sleep in that home knowing that they are all rapists, murderers and accomplices?
Wini shouldn't be let free here until she testifies against her rapist father in the court. The court needs evidence, wini is the evidence but she has refused to be one.
Until Justice is served, we remain Ochanya's voice.
Ochanya deserves justice.
Silence in the face of injustice is INJUSTICE—and evil.
Just a reminder that the way Simi was dragged, isn't the same way those who were accused of covering a RAPE allegation was criticized. Then we have the case of Speed Darlington, does anyone talk about it anymore? NO.
Never taking y'all serioulsy.
Let break down this “not all men” stuff for you people
Out of 10 men in a room, one cracks a sexual joke.
Two of them actually find it funny.
Three of them don’t find it funny but chuckle just to fit in.
Four of them don’t find it funny but don’t say anything.
None of them says, “stop, that’s actually disturbing”.
Later, 9 men go back home believing they’re part of the good majority, unlike the man who cracked the sexual joke. But from a woman’s perspective, there isn’t much difference between the people who laughed, the people who laughed just to fit in and the people who said nothing.
All three do the same thing. They keep the room safe for the men who cross the line. And that’s the part “not all men” doesn’t address.
Women aren’t always saying that all men harass, but what we are saying is that a lot of good, polite men end up protecting the system where harassment feels low risk.
I understand why men resist this framing, but doing nothing is not the same as doing no harm, when the environment itself is what enables thr harm. The least you guys can do for women is to SPEAK UP.
It’s the same thing going on with this raping festival, some men wouldn’t participate but they wouldn’t stop the men that are participating.
But since they’re not part of the majority, they think they’re the “good” ones, when all they’re doing is protecting the system that keeps failing women.
Misandry is women venting. Misogyny has institutions, laws, traditions and festivals behind it.
Misandry is like old women gossiping at the back of the church. Misogyny is what happened in Ozoro today.
One is a reaction while other is a system.
