Happy new month Guys. My name is Humble and this is my opportunity to tell you that we now create portrait AI studio like images and also AI generated art, That is whatever Idea you have for a picture, you are going to see it out in reality. We also still create logo and Graphics
Four things.
1. It is not a Christian problem. It is a cultural problem.
We are not a godly people, we are a religious people. Our ancestors usually pay homage to the gods every morning before going about their activities. They offered drink to the gods and ancestors before drinking theirs. It is who we are. We just brought it into Christianity. Christian countries do not demand you to pray before work. Your faith is personal.
2. Right to freedom of Religion
Right to freedom of religion does not just mean freedom to choose whatever religion you like. It also includes freedom to break away from any religion and freedom to be irreligious. If your organization refuses to accept your lack of Christian faith and insists you pray like a Christian, they have violated your fundamental human right and you can sue on that ground. If they sack you for your faith, you have another ground to sue.
3. Actions have consequences
Actions have consequences, even the right ones. Choosing not to pray has consequences- even though youncan sue on that ground. That is why people do anything - even dress like Muslims to get ahead. It is just a way of playing the game if you don't want to or can't fight the system. Choosing to come on social media to tell a religious people that you were fired for refusing to pray, and expecting them to help you is an ironic entitlement. Your choices reflect your own values, not societal acceptance. Crying on social media will not always get you help, but you can keep putting yourself out there regardless.
4. Sexual Market Demand
You said if you were a woman with breasts and ass, you would have gotten help. That is plausible, but let us discuss the market demand and the buyer's market.
I've seen men complain about women getting favours because of their sexual attraction. I've seen women complain about other women getting all the attention and favours because of their body - some have even asked "what does she have that I do not have?"
It is a buyer's market. Some people help because they want to - there are many people that need their help, so you getting that opportunity is grace or luck because your case is not special. Some others want value exchange. You need help, they need your body. You decide if the trade is worth it. As a guy, do you want to be your yansh for help? You may even want to, but the helper is not gay. The helper may be gay but not find you attractive. For the women, it is not like you don't have breasts and ass like the other woman, the helper is saying it is that other one that attracts them. When you go shopping for fruits, they all all pineapples, but you still vet and pick the ones that is more appealing to your eyes. It is how the buyer's market work.
So… let me tell you this story about my friend.
This thing happened a while ago, but till today, we still remind him of it whenever he starts feeling too confident.
My friend met a girl on Tinder.
Normal Tinder meeting. They had chatted for a bit. No deep conversations. No “what are your dreams?” Just vibes and agreement.
THE STORY OF TUNDE AND IBUKUN
They started with nothing but dreams too big for their one-room apartment. Tunde would wake up early to chase clients that never called back, while IBUKUN stayed up late learning skills on a phone that overheated every hour. They were building, slowly, quietly.
Then one year, IBUKUN'S’s work finally took off.
Suddenly she was earning more than Tunde ever had. She tried to celebrate it with him, but Tunde’s smile grew thinner each day. Whenever she paid for groceries, he called it “showing power.” When she offered to handle rent one month, he said she was “taking over his role.” When she surprised him with a gift, he asked if she was trying to “remind him he was failing.”
What she didn’t know was that Tunde had grown up hearing one dangerous sentence over and over:
“A woman with money cannot respect her man.”
It was stitched into him like a scar.
And what Tunde didn’t know was that Ibukun had grown up hearing another lie:
“If you earn more than your husband, pretend you don’t. Hide it.”
They were both victims of lessons nobody remembers teaching.
The day things fell apart wasn’t loud. It wasn’t dramatic. Ibukun simply said, “Why does my success feel like a threat to you?”
And Tunde, tired of wrestling shadows in his mind, whispered, “Because I was taught that once you start helping me, you’ll stop needing me.”
But here’s the truth:
She never wanted to replace him she wanted to support him.
He never wanted to resent her. He just didn’t know another way to be a man.
Their story wasn’t about money. It was about fear. About unlearning. About how brokenness hides inside people who swear they’re fine.
If love ever stood a chance, it wasn’t going to be because one earned more or one earned less.
It was going to be because they both remembered that money is a tool, not a scoreboard.
Respect is not paid for.
Love is not purchased.
Marriage is not a competition.
And people will always accept the love they think they deserve.
The saddest part?
Most people reading this still think the problem is the money.
But the real problem is the mindset. The idea that your partner’s success is somehow your defeat.
Until we fix that, no amount of money will save any relationship.
I had just returned from work that evening, looking like stress in human form. My shirt was untucked, one sock was missing, and the way I flung myself on the couch, you’d think I was escaping from a small chops debt.
Just as I reached for the remote to drown my sorrows in
Everything about that Sunday felt so uncertain, so plain, yet somehow remarkable. Until my phone rang.
It all felt like a dream when I saw his number pop up on the screen.
I knew that number. I had memorized it over the 14 months we were together.
Can we please stop comparing the lion to the tiger? A tiger is stronger, is heavier, is faster and more brutal than lions.
The lion is a fraudulent creature who paid influencers to call it “king of the jungle”. This overhyped wig-wearing fraud does NOT even live in the jungle.
For some reason, I have always hated the app Tinder. The truth is that, I can’t pinpoint what that reason is.
I probably felt it was an hook up app and I had said to myself that I would never download it, because paying for sex was something I would never do.
Lmao, but I was
Dear Zubby,
Thank you for your feedback. I am afraid you are mistaken. Akara and Akamu are Lukumi Yoruba words, and documentary evidence from the 19th Century from the Lukumi in Brazil proves this.
Akara or Acara means 'I count' (Aka or Aca), and then 'I buy' (ra).
It is short for Acarajé, which is the name the Yoruba Lukumi in Brazil still call it. Acarajé simply means 'I count' (Aka or Aca), 'I buy' (ra), and 'I eat' (je), hence the name Acarajé!
Nigeria's Lukumi (Yoruba) just shortened Acarajé as they shortened Omo-ti-Olu Iwa-bi to Omoluabi and Olofin-Orun (Lord of the Heavens) to Olorun.
Likewise, Akamu or Acamu simply means 'I count' (Aka or Aca) and 'I drink' (Mu).
Some non Lukumi people who settle in the Southwest from other parts of Nigeria often conflate Ogi with Akamu. Actually, they are different things. The Lukumi word for corn is Agbado.
When Agbado is milled and fermented in water, it is called Ogi by the Lukumi. When Ogi is made into a pap by boiling it with water, it is known as Akamu. When Akamu solidifies and is cut into solid blocks, traditionally wrapped in Banana leaf, it is referred to as Eko.
Please understand that Lukumi is a complex language. While less sophisticated languages may have one word for one form of plant/food, Lukumi Yoruba is nuanced. It provides clarity by having a different word for a form of food or plant at various stages of its processing.
For example, not all dried powder is called Amala. If the paste is dark, which usually means it is made from Yam powder, it is called èlùbọ́. If, on the other hand, it is white, which ordinarily means it is derived from Cassava powder, it is called láfún.
If it is made from unripe plantain, it is known as elubo ogede.
But to an outsider, they are all Amala.
Whereas other people call all forms of cassava flour garri, to the Lukumi Yoruba garri is only the flour. When it is made into a ball with hot water, it transforms from garri to eba.
When different ethnic nationalities came to Lagos, they did not understand the nuanced differences amongst Ogi, Akamu and Eko. Ti them, it was all genetically Akamu.
The way you know this is to ask such people to tell you the meaning of Akamu in their language. They cannot give a literal meaning in their native tongue, similar to how I broke down the etymology of Akamu into 'I count' (Aka) and then drink (Mu). And the reason is because it is not a word native to their language. Rather, it is a borrowed word.
Thanks again, and may God bless you.
