When I still smoked, we had this spot around Garki marrket where we lit up. Myself, Fred, Leke & 'Vlad'. We were rolling up to smoke per usual one time when Leke suddenly said he felt wet all over like he had just taken a bath. He kept saying his shorts were soaked but we could-

Dear Nigerians, from now till the elections end in Jan/Feb 2027, you must hit the streets. Time to time.
Can be Tuesdays and Thursdays.
Can be Wednesdays and Fridays.
Can be 3x a week.
Meeting places can be in front of INEC offices in your LGA or your house of assembly.
The pressure must be felt and dealt!
Otherwise, forget about transparent elections. We will cry the same cry we did in 2019 and 2023.
I will be vilified for this. I will be called out. But I will not keep quiet.

🇺🇸US Based Nigerian Pharmacist’s 18-Year Marriage Ends in Blood-Soaked Bedroom: Jury Convicts Him of Murdering Wife After She Tried to Leave
Olufemi Oladapo Ademoye (also referred to as Femi; 56 years old at the time of the events and trial) was a pharmacist in Tampa, Florida. He owned Crown Pharmacy on Waters Avenue and was active in the Nigerian professional community, serving as vice president of the Nigerian Association of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Scientists in America (NAPPSA). Juliet Toyin (or Oluwatoyin) Ademoye (approximately 53) ran the family’s African Eateries restaurant and catering business on the same street; Olufemi often joined her there after closing the pharmacy. Before moving to the United States, she had worked as a secondary-school teacher at a Federal Government College in Nigeria.
The couple had been married for about 18 years and lived in a duplex at 8615 Villa Largo Drive in north Tampa. They had a teenage son (referred to as Seun or Sean), who was roughly 16–17 years old in 2010 and was out of town at the time of the incident. They were described as prominent members of the Nigerian-American community in the Tampa area. Neighbors later noted that Olufemi had a reputation for a temper, including confrontations with the neighborhood association.
The night of June 16, 2010:
According to prosecutors, on the night of June 16, 2010, Olufemi discovered emails showing that Juliet was planning to leave him. She had been confiding in another man living in Nigeria about her unhappy marriage. In one email she sent a photograph of their teenage son with the message: “This is a photo of your son Seun.”
Enraged, Olufemi called a relative, who advised him to spend the night in a hotel and cool off. He said he would do so, but first wanted to stop briefly at home to collect his passport and some money. Instead, he stayed. The couple argued for hours. Their son was not home.

Something powerful is happening across Nigeria. The youths are really getting more serious for this Peter Obi presidential ambition.
Today in Edo State, after hearing the threats of some thugs challenging the Obidients to do a rally in Edo.
Immediately after hearing the news, the youths of the state quickly mobilized for a powerful campaign for Peter Obi.
And no thug had the courage to show up. 😥

Modern life made it easy for men to stay soft, and a lot of them took the offer.
In school, the boys who sit still, follow every rule, and talk about their feelings get the praise. The ones who want to compete, roughhouse, or build things get told to calm down.
Over time, that trains a lot of young guys to suppress the parts of themselves that used to be normal. They learn early that energy and drive are problems to manage, not strengths to use.
Then they hit the real world. Plenty of jobs today don’t need strength, courage, or the ability to handle real pressure. You can make decent money sitting in a chair and clicking a mouse.
The old path; where a man learned a trade, took physical risks, and earned respect by producing something tangible is smaller now.
A lot of men never have to prove they can carry weight, so they never develop the habit.
At home it gets worse. A big percentage of boys grow up without a father in the house. Nobody is there to show them how to deal with conflict, how to stay calm when things go wrong, how to work hard even when you don’t feel like it, or how to protect and provide for people who depend on you.
Other boys get a dad who is physically present but checked out, or one who has been taught that leading is the same as controlling. Either way, the example is missing.
On top of that, the culture keeps telling men that the old traits are toxic. Being decisive, competitive, stoic, or ambitious gets framed as dangerous.
At the same time, porn, video games, and endless comfort make it easy to avoid anything hard.
Real relationships take effort and rejection.
Building skills takes years.
Leading a family means putting other people first.
A lot of men choose the version of life where they never have to do those things, and nobody really pushes back.
Traditional masculinity wasn’t about being aggressive for no reason. It was about taking responsibility when it was uncomfortable, staying useful when it was easier to quit, and building things that last.
The longer we treat those traits like a problem, the more men opt out. And when enough men opt out, the people who depend on them feel it.
End.

Días después, la lujosa residencia de Wilson Joseph en Croix-des-Bouquets quedó reducida a escombros tras un operativo de la Policía de Haití y tropas salvadoreñas, según el Miami Herald. Joseph, buscado por EE.UU. con una recompensa de 1 millón de dólares, habría escapado y estaría escondido.

This guy on live gives his reasons for being threatened if an Igbo president emerges in Nigeria, saying it's because of some things they've done in the past. I'm glad the host is well informed because such a narrative would have flown if he wasn't countered immediately in the same clip.

So, I did something in class today during our 20 minute break session. It pains me that I forgot to do a video recording.
I showed this tweet to 5 different people; a guy from America 🇺🇸, another guy from Australia 🇦🇺, and three girls from Russia 🇷🇺, Bulgaria 🇧🇬, and South Korea 🇰🇷.
My question to them was very simple; “what do you think about this tweet I saw on the internet?”…….. The girls from Russia and South Korea could barely even comprehend the tweet and let me not say what the two guys actually said. 😂😂😂
Again, what you guys are doing in Nigeria is not LOVE but a GENITAL-Ponzi Scheme, and one day, you lots will tell yourselves the truth.
But for now, as we were. 🚶🏾♂️🚶🏾♂️🚶🏾♂️🚶🏾♂️
I'm not your typical Nigerian girlfriend who shamelessly makes a man responsible for every bill.
I've paid a man's electricity bills every month, bought his groceries every week while shopping for mine, made sure his favourite perfume never ran out, and taken responsibility for his skincare because I was the one who introduced him to it.
The monthly allowance he gave me wasn't even enough to cover all these things, but I didn't mind because I earned more than him and I understood the genuine intention behind his giving.
I know how to receive, but I also know how to show up financially for a man I genuinely care about. Love should never be a one-way transaction.

Born before television entered ordinary homes, he now keeps in touch on WhatsApp.
Today, my father, Ogbueshi, is 100 years old.
On November 9, 1926, the world he entered was almost unrecognisable. Queen Elizabeth II was a six-month-old baby. Lufthansa, Mercedes-Benz and McKinsey were newly established. Television had just been publicly demonstrated. In Nigeria, the Union Jack flew over a British colony, and the Daily Times had only begun publication.
He was 33 when Nigeria became independent. He was 39 when the first military coup came in 1966. He lived through the tragedy of Biafra, the return to civilian rule in 1979, and the long years of military government. In 1999, he witnessed the restoration of democracy, and he has now seen 27 unbroken years of it.
He has travelled from handwritten letters to the telephone, and from the telephone to the smartphone. Today, he chats on WhatsApp, transfers money on his banking app, and still reads the news online. A man born under colonial rule now moves with ease through the age of artificial intelligence.
Yet his life has not been made of change alone. He has buried all his siblings and outlived his two wives. He has known the joy of raising a family and the sorrow of saying goodbye to those he loved. Through it all, he has remained steadfast.
His mind is clear. His health, within the limits of age, is remarkable. No terminal illness. No debilitating disease.
As a teenager, I never imagined he would see 70. A hundred was beyond my imagination.
November 9 has always been special to our family. My youngest brother was born on this day, and on this date, I married the love of my life at the Anglican Cathedral of the Advent, Life Camp, Abuja.
This morning, we will gather around him and sing his favourite hymn, How Great Thou Art. On December 27, we will gather at St Andrew's Church, Obosi, where he was baptised, to thank Almighty God for a century of mercy.
A hundred years ago, the world was different. Nations have risen, empires have fallen, and inventions once unimaginable have become ordinary.
Through it all, one thing has remained constant: God's grace.
Happy 100th birthday, Papa.
Your life is our testimony.
