IS TRUE LOVE STILL A THING OR ARE WE JUST MANAGING?

Once upon a time, love was so simple. Your parents met at a village party, exchanged glances over a plate of Pounded Yam and Efo riro, and boommmm 30years later, they’re still together arguing about NEPA bills and the best way to cook Egusi soup, gisting and banting. But in 2025 Nigeria???? Love is looking like a group project where only one person is doing the work. Let’s be honest- does love still exist, or are we all just managing because “God when” is not a financial plan? The rise of “ let’s see how it goes ” love (speaking from the perspective of the queen of let’s just see how it goes😂😂) Gone are the days of “ will you be my girlfriend? ” now, relationships start with: · “ I really like your vibe .” · “I don’t want to put a label on it but I feel something. ” · “ We are just enjoying ourselves, no press...

Cruise or Ment???

Picture this: You’re walking down the street, minding your business, when suddenly, someone whips out their phone, records you( most times without your knowledge), and posts it online for thousands—maybe millions—to see. You didn’t consent. You didn’t even know. But now, your face, your wig or your koi koi shoe is being laughed at, turned into memes, and spread across the internet like wildfire. Sound disturbing? Well, that’s exactly what’s happening with on social media lately especially with this weird Kpokirikpo Challenge —a new trend where people record random strangers they find “funny” or “interesting” and post them online, all for the sake of engagement. Some of you even go as far as recording people old enough to be your mummy all because you think she looks funny, you then open her up to ridicule , just like thattttt At first, it may seem like harmless fun. But beneath the surface, this trend raises serious ethical concerns about consent and privacy. The pe...

Beyond Redemption: You Were Made for More

I watched a video by Tito Writer, and it stirred something deep within me. She spoke about the women in Jesus’ lineage—Tamar, Ruth, Rahab, Bathsheba, and Mary. Women with stories that, by human standards, should have disqualified them. Women who carried labels and tags that society would never let them forget. But God? God didn’t just redeem them. He positioned them. He didn’t just erase their past—He used it to shape history. And as I listened, I couldn’t help but think about how often we, as women, disqualify ourselves. How often we let shame, past mistakes, pain, trauma, or societal judgment convince us that all we can get from God is just enough grace to be forgiven—but never enough to be used. But that’s not the gospel. That’s not who God is. And that’s certainly not where our story ends. The Women We Overlook but God Chose - Tamar – A woman who had to fight for her place in history, taking actions that seem questionable b...

IS LOVE REALLY WORTH IT OR IS IT JUST KILLING US GRADUALLY

Let’s be honest: we have normalized cheating in Nigeria to a really crazy point. A man cheats, and we say, “It’s in their nature, men are polygamous in nature”. A woman cheats, and people laugh, saying, “It’s just a backup plan, can’t blame her”. Even pastors will tell you to “close your eyes and pray for your marriage” instead of holding the cheating partner accountable. It would have been better if we were only normalizing it but we’ve gotten to the point where we consistently ignore the risks⚠️ (or should I just say the risk involved always skips our minds). Nobody thinks about STI’s. Nobody talks about how cheating is not just about “feelings” but about exposing someone-someone who has been faithful, loyal, and trusting-to diseases they didn’t sign up for. We are out here making jokes about side chicks 🐥 and side cocks 🐔(if you think this the wrong way wo you need deliverance) while people are being infected with STI’s 😷 in relationships they thoug...
