Oghowen, My mother's beloved. (Episode 1)

        Epa domo, I greeted Papa Ikpomwosa, our neighbour. Esosa, welcome, my son.Una don get holiday? The old man asked. Yes, Epa,  we are on Easter break. Oh-0h! exclaimed the old man, welcome home, my son. How body? Fine, Epa, I said and started walkinghome briskly, mama would be expecting me. I got home and called, Mama!Mama! Mama came out and when she saw me, I saw the joy on her face, she ran to hug me, and started shedding tears, I cleaned mama's tears and told her to stop crying. Indeed, the death of oghowen is taking its toll on mama, mama was no longer the lively woman she used to be, she was looking old and frail.       Our  father had died in a ghastly road accident when I was barely three years old, I don't have any memories of my father, mama was pregnant with oghowen. Papa's family members threw mama and I out of our home and mama had to be the only one fending for us. I grew up seeing mama as a very hardworking ...

She went to the beach with her lover and it left her a scar that will never heal.

It was a Saturday, I had gone to the mall to pick up few things when a voice said hi from behind. I turned and there was a figure whom at first, I couldn't figure out his face but my heart skipped. I am Akin, said he. A-what? Yoruba demon? The heart that skipped came back to its job of pumping blood. I replied with a disgusted look, and grumbled hi, I made it obvious that I wasn't interested in the conversation. Yoruba demons? Three years ago, I came to Lagos in search of a job. I have gotten that job, I am now a well to do lady but what my heart has gone through in the hands of names like Tunde, Akin, Ola, Olu, Yemi, Ayo, Deji,, Sola? I vowed to never have anything to do with Yoruba demons anymore. I looked back and saw him still looking at me, I picked up my basket and walked away. Sunday came and it was time to go to church, tried kick starting my car but it wouldn't respond. Devil, why? I mumbled. I stepped down to open the bonnet and couldn't figure out what wa...

She penned this down for the man she once loved!

TO THE MAN I ONCE LOVED And tonight, memories cloud me like the heavens, Memories of when it was only us under the galaxy, With the moon watching over us silently, As our bodies dwelt on ecstatic journeys Introducing our souls to each other, The times you looked after me even without my knowledge, The times te only place my breasts felt good was on your lips. The times we laughed till it hurt, The days we fought and settled while kissing away each other's tears. The times we played like little children, Throwing water on each other's faces. The times we told each other our deepest secrets, And shared our deepest fears, And even in our fears, with warm embrace, we told each other to fear not. The tickle games, 'who laughs first, loses out', And to the moment we said we couldn't do them anymore. The laughter, the tears, The journeys, the touches, The friendship, the fights. The moment I walked through that door, And felt I would never see you agai...

ARE YOU IN A RELATIONSHIP AND ARE SCARED OF SOMETHING?

WHAT FEAR CAN DO TO YOUR RELATIONSHIP Now, this is ambiguous, I just need you to come into the bracket and understand the exact point. Not wanting to lose your partner is cool but inviting fear into it is the beginning of losing them. I can tell you that the moment you start getting scared of losing them is when you start doing unnecessary things, doing the right things the wrong way, doing more than the necessary things and if you're the sensitive type, especially the one who cares about their ego, you want to check that you're not doing too much and you end up not doing at all, confusion sets in, your partner does not even understand you anymore, today, you're cold, other times, you're burning like fire. I know you're confused right now but that is how confused it gets when you invite fear to drive your relationship. If there is one thing that I know, it is that fear is the most horrible ingredient for a relationship, get rid of it! I do know that when you fi...

If karma has to punish innocent generations for the sins of their ancestors, then, karma is a coward!

KARMA MAY BE RECYCLING EVIL  "May your children be paid back in the same coin that you paid me". We call it karma, but I think it is evil. Karma, indeed gives hope, it soothes, it makes people feel they do not need to fight back,  karma would. And although, I am not sure of the efficacy of this karma, I am sure we shouldn't wish for the daughter a rapist to be raped In the future. In this case, the evil here is rape and by such wish, we only pray for this evil to be recycled. Come to think of it, your children are innocent of your deeds, what then do you think about them being paid back with your deeds, since we are only humans and we tend to commit at least a Crime even against humanity once in our lifetime? People make mistakes and correct their  mistakes and if truly, the almighty forgives them once they repent, I see no reason why Karma would still want to pay their offsprings. So, dear karma, our children will come to this world unaware of our deeds. If truly y...

SHE COMPOSES A VERY EMOTIONAL PIECE FOR HER SOON TO BE EX. SHE SAYS; ADIEU, MY LOVE.

The other day while I was leaving home for school, I asked momma for little garri, even though I feared she would say no. But she said more than no. She said to me thus, I know you love garri, but when you love something and it threatens your well being, you leave such thing! Don't make me cry over a child all because of garri, you this child. Truth be told, I love garri to a fault! When people ask me my best food and I say garri and they say garri is not food, I find it insulting. So, garri is what? But if I tell you what garri has done to me in this world? Was it when I would almost vomit even my Intestines all because I took garri? Garri was warning me and using style to tell me that it isn't meant for my stomach, but no, garri is bae was my watchword. Then garri said if you wouldn't hear that I don't want to stay in your stomach, I will leave your mouth and refuse to enter your stomach. Seriously, there was a day I almost died due to this effect of garri in me. I...

HOW AN AVERAGE MAN SEES FEMINISM

An African man will travel by AIR, all thanks to the WEST. He will wake up early in the morning, have his bath in a SOPHISTICATED BATHROOM, all thanks to the WEST. He will put on SUIT and FINE SHOES, all thanks to the WEST. He will enter his CAR, switch on the AC, all thanks to the WEST. He will drop his children off at SCHOOL because he wants them to be successful, all thanks to the WEST. He gets to his office building but his office is on the 7th floor. Oh! Never mind, there is LIFT, all thanks to the WEST. He sits in his office, faces his COMPUTER, all thanks to the WEST. He bows to pray to JEHOVAH and remembers how his father had told him to continue the family's legacy as the high priest of IFA , but he rebuked and said, after his level of exposure, he could not worship little gods, he had chosen CHRISTIANITY . His father told him 'son, our culture is dying' and he didn't care, all thanks to the WEST . He remembers the time his father asked him to come inh...

THEY CREATE FIRE WITH LOVE

It was all cool and calm, Till we decided to start the fire. This fire shall not burn on coals, This fire shall burn on souls. Coals burn to ashes, Souls burn to ecstasy. Have you seen fire burn on water? We can create it, if you want so. Let this fire burn up our souls, Even as we drown in the Ocean of love. As we burn, we drown. Let us create a fire that water cannot quench. From the Ocean, we shall drench, From the fire, we shall melt. Let us go pyromaniacal, Together, we can create a fire, That no water can quench.

At what point should you walk away from a relationship?

You have to know when walk away from abusive relationships, from unprofitable relationships, from unyielding relationships, from unpromising relationships, from unfortunate relationships!!! Listen to me, brother, if you ask a girl out and she keeps saying no, it means she doesn't like you, she doesn't want to be with you. No, it's not that she's testing your patience. She doesn't like you!!! Read the handwriting on the wall, when you call her and she doesn't pick it up nor return your calls nor apologise for doing so and it keeps repeating itself? I know you are in love but brother? You gotta respect yourself! Are you in a relationship that is at the verge of breaking? And you are always the only one begging to keep the rope from cutting?
