What is the African definition of a befitting burial and who agreed on that standard?It's been a while you heard from me, but fret not - I am back(you guys better have missed me). What's on my mind today is the opposite of life - death, and how we bid our loved ones good bye after they are gone. ...

The most common Nigerian response to economic hardship/relief measures is wait for it... rice! You might expect policy reviews or implementation, creation of jobs, financial improvement measures, etc. But no, each and every time, the government's answer is rice.Distribution of bags of rice, subsi...

Modern social courtesy demands that we be economical with opinions and judgement - even if it is the truth. Gone are the days were the honesty was encouraged irrespective of whose Ox is gored. It's 'growth', and 'development', so I guess I have to live with it right?But just before I go on with l...

People who tend to sacrifice relationships on the altar of ambition, are often viewed as bad, nasty, and downright evil. To be honest, it's easy to see why - how can you do away with a relationship built over the years just to further your own selfish ambition?Boo hoo! Cry me a river. Yup, this i...

Something significant happens in the life of a person that leaves a permanent effect on them. For some, it alters just a smidge of their personalities - and for others, it changes them entirely. Whether this change is good or bad, that is subjective to each individual.2021 brought with it my own ...

There is an unappreciated wisdom and concern that comes with the advice 'do not post everything on social media'. Often, when that statement is made, it is met with a measure of resistance (as is almost everything these days). People assume that whoever made it has a nefarious intention of trying...

If you are a filmmaker, I bet you would have heard the phrase 'give the audience what they want' on multiple occasions.

It's the year 3024, and the location is a secondary school. A history class is in session. The bespectacled teacher is in the middle of a lesson about a past era - the 2020s.
