Here’s the picture of a Youth Corper and his mum who sells Frozen Fish. His mother evidently paid for his education from the proceed of selling frozen fish. An average human will be quick to hide behind veils but this young man honoured his mother by not only identifying with her, but showing the world how proud he his to have her. I think this is the true definition of honour when the...
The Gift of a Man
The Gift of a Man I heard a lot of things about my childhood; things that wowed the adult I am today and make me wonder “why was I ever sent to a school to be taught out of creativity?” Sometimes I look at my parents in astonishment and I ask within myself, “why will this beautiful ‘one’ succumb to the dictates of society and consciously throw their choice, heavily talented and equally gifted...
So Long Dre!
How can you be gone Sonola Oluwatomisin? Why leave today when you still have a thousand years of conquest before you? Why leave now when your son and daughters are just getting to know you?

The Consequence of Your Actions
THE CONSEQUENCE I absolutely have no problem with those who choose to the option of going homo/gay or bisexual, it’s like me choosing wine and others falling for the cigarette and some other doing both cigarette and wine.. it’s a world of choices and such people should be allowed to do what they like with their assholes but where I stand against such is when this people choose not to...
Iya Agba – Letter To My Grandma In Heaven
Dear Sabitiu Cecilia Oderinlo, It seems like a few days ago that you left but indeed, it’s been more than a few years, it’s ten wonderful years already since you left this world of sin to the realm that is unseen to us all, a chapter that we hopefully will see or never get to see if Jesus returns before the inevitable unseen arrives. It’s beautiful that you left at the ripest of age, an age when...
