Which?

Someone once rightly said, 'I was crying I have no shoes until I saw someone without legs.' Which will you rather have: shoes or legs? Affluence or good health? Most beautiful bride or peace in the home?

Why Guys Don't Propose Fast Enough

http://www.reception-wedding.com/wedding_rings.htm I have been refusing to blog on this for a long time for fear of being misunderstood. But the barrage of complaints for a number of affected friends has not abated. Let me use this story to buttress my point. Please note that the names have been changed not to point at any individual living or dead. Adaku has always been a reserved girl. Right through Secondary School and her early university days, she kept away from associating with certain kind of friends especially girls who do not think like she does and guys. Her upbringing has been under the strict and conservative instructions of her parents. But in the university she meets Haruna, a handsome, intelligent and promising young man who was a year ahead of her in the University. One thing leads to another and before long, they were dating steadily. Their relationship continued from her 3rd year in the university till seven years afterwards. Now, Adaku isn't very sure ...

"My Husband washes my Undies"

My country is indeed an interesting place! I read with consternation as a couple of women reportedly emerged on social media to announce to the world what their spouses do and whatnots. I believe the whole noise came off one of the events on the ongoing BBNaija show where one of the contestants reportedly washed the pants of his love interest. And the dying-to-be-distracted throng of Nigerian youths started another session of tantrum throwing on the internet over whether Neo (so is his name) should have or have not washed Vee's (I hope am correct) panties.

It's Revolution Time

Image
An Igbo adage cautions the chicken to carefully observe how the patridge is being skewered because it will definitely get to its turn one day. When it started in  Tunisia , Mubarak did not know it will get to him. He must have thought that Ben Ali did not play his card well. And when it got to him, Ghaddafi must have scoffed with satiety. Now that his domain is in crisis, the wise Saudi king is making amends; A wise step for a clever and sensitive ruler. For those who are still sitting on their peoples' rights while looting the national wealth ... the clock is ticking. Revolution is spreading and it does not know international borders any more! But for those that think it will never get to them ... hmmm! I laugh. Let's just wait and see. There is no fixed date. For Ben Ali it was 22 years; Mubarak 31; Ghaddafi 42. Do not be deceived, it may come down to 2, 3, 4 and even fewer or more years of oppressing your people through corruption. It will get to you. Yes, you that t...
