WELCOME TO 2017!!!

This time last year, I was too ill to talk to anyone; too weak to handle my mobile and put up a post. My brother, mum and sister were worried sick. They didn't like the thought of me entering the new year with any form of ailment. I couldn't help it.  Eventually, I did enter the new year sick (although I pretended to be well) and remained so until about three days into 2016.

I went for the crossover service at my home church in Kano state and ended up sleeping throughout the service. I only woke up when it was time for the final prayers and the usual Happy New Year' shouts at exactly 12am.

This year is different.

I couldn't make it to any church for the crossover service (blame my village) but I'm strong and healthy. I'm online and active. My brain is working fine.
I'm thankful for this and many more.
2016 was great for me. I count my blessings alot and I often name them.

My family is strong, healthy and happy.
Sis and I graduated from the University.
Bro became a daddy
Mum is stronger and happier
I started a blog
I opened a page
I earned some cash
I made some friendships and connections
I took some stuff in my life seriously
I walked out on some people and watched some others walk out on me for the right reasons
I made certain tough decisions
I learned a lot and unlearned a lot too
I embraced my fears
I got better
I found ME
God came through for me
I haven't looked back and I have no regrets. My life isn't anything next to perfect but it is beautiful and I am happy.

I'm going forward and I'm getting better.
 Thanks for being a part of my 2016. With you, my year was awesome.
#Blessings
Happy New Year Fam
2017 will be huge.

GLOBACOM SHUTS UNEC DOWN WITH TIMAYA, MI AND RUNTOWN, DJNEPTUNE AND DJLAMBO

Last night is a night that will not be forgotten in  hurry at the  University of Nigeria, Enugu Campus as Globacom ended its week long mouth watering Campus Data Bundle campaign tagged 'Glo campus storm' with an enveloping event which brought down A list artistes such as Timaya, MI and Runtown to the white house of the prestigious institution. Yours truly was there and brings you reports! The event was slated to start by 4pm although it later started much later that night due to problems with the generator which was to be used to power the auditorium and other equipments for the event. Many students left for emergency night class in the few opened classes like Abuja auditorium and Coscharis building. Luck however was on the side of the patient students who were already murmuring that the show was a scam, when PHCN restored power supply around 11pm. Immediately the power was restored, all the students including those who left for till day break studying returned and the a...

CRUSH ISSUES

I was standing by a corner of the road awaiting any oncoming tricycle (keke) to halt. "Mummy will kill me today. How did I forget to look at my wristwatch?", I wondered aloud as I searched my head for any sugar coated excuse to give her for staying out so late. "Hello". Excuse me", a strong and smooth voice behind me said. I ignored the voice. Hello, please excuse me".The voice repeated and seemed to draw closer. I turned around. My eyes couldn't believe who I saw so I quickly looked away. "I'm sorry to bother you but I couldn't help but notice you alot in there". The voice called again. It was Kiss Danel. Yes, Kiss Daniel. The celebrity. The Woju crooner. My all time celebrity crush.He was the one seeking my attention. Wonders shall never end.  Kiss was the guest artiste at the event I had just attended at African cultural centre, Kano.Throughout the event, I noticed he kept looking at me or maybe in my direction but I wade...

The Error of 'Don't you Know you are a Girl? '

Part 1 Dear Society, When you want to correct a female going wrong, especially a child,  do not remind her that she is a girl. Do not tell her to stop because she is a girl. Tell her to stop and change because her actions are wrong. When she wears a skirt and sits with her legs wide open,  tell her to close them because it is wrong to sit with your undies exposed. When she talks arrogantly,  correct her because it is wrong to speak that way. Don't tell her to be polite because girls should be. Sensible humans are polite. Politeness is not gender specific. When she dresses indecently,  correct the wrongness of the dressing. Don't make it about her gender. Decency doesn't apply to one gender. When she is unable to cook at 18, remind her that it is only reasonable for an adult to be capable of making food for his/her survival. No gender needs the skill more. When she rides her car in a rough manner,  remind her that wrong driving has sent many to their...
