Tips for Finding an Apartment in the UK

By -
Image
Looking for an apartment in London is like looking for a life partner. Very similar characteristics: You’ll see the one with a good location: proximity to market, bus station, etc, but has a tiny tiny room.  🤦🏻‍♀️   If you eventually find one of good size, the rent price will be enough to buy land in your home country!  If you say you should go for a shared apartment to save cost, you will see the one with too many flatmates (4-7 people under one roof)! With a high tendency of noise and discord! And I don’t recommend this if you’re a student!  You will also see the one that has only one bathroom (with like 7 Flatmates sharing it), and you’ll literally have to queue to shower! You will also find houses where flatmates have pets—pets that’ll be sharing the kitchen with you  😥 . And if you’re someone like me who has a phobia for animals, you’re finished! It’s just so difficult to find one that ticks all the boxes, especially if you’re on a budget: Space, locatio...

  What is domestic abuse? DA is the intentional use of force, intimidation, or physical abuse to gain and maintain power or control over someone that is an intimate partner. And one component of domestic abuse is that one partner makes CONSISTENT EFFORTS to gain and maintain power and control over the other.  Domestic abuse is an epidemic that occurs in all societies around the world, and it’s often accompanied by emotional abuse and other abusive behaviors, that depicts the dominance of one partner over the other. Red flags / Warning signs: So often when we picture dv we think about bruises, punches, and physical scars, but domestic abuse doesn’t always look that way, it can come as sweet and charming behaviors that make you feel loved, and you may not notice the things your partner does to control you.  Domestic abuse is beyond bruises and battered faces, domestic abuse can constitute financial abuse, sexual abuse, and emotional abuse (which can be deep and internal an...

“When she was pregnant with Success, she decided to drink ‘Angle 90’ (a poisonous substance). She said she wanted to die. But I advised her to sell the baby for N500,000. Success' Father narrates.

Mr and Mrs Godwin Adegor, Parents of Success, the little girl who became popular following a viral video of her lamenting after she was sent home over her parents’ inability to pay her school fee, has revealed why they named her Success and how her video has changed their lives. In the interview with The Punch Success’ father, Godwin Adegor, who is an as okada rider, and her mum who sells recharge cards and raw eggs, revealed they also have two other children – Gift and Marvelous – who are in Junior Secondary School. “I knew she would be a great child. That was why I gave her the name Success. We received many favours on the day she was given birth to. Let me tell you a short story about Success. After our second child, my wife said she didn’t want to give birth to another child. “When she was pregnant with Success, she decided to drink ‘Angle 90’ (a poisonous substance). She said she wanted to die. I convinced her that rather than kill yourself, have the baby so that ...

MISSING

  Something horrible happened to me recently. Turns out it is one of my 2021 highlights  Quite a lengthy read tho... I was all packed to leave for Brighton from London. Had one piece of luggage and a backpack, with my purse hanging in front of me.  Got on the bus, then on a train and then landed at the National rail station to board to Brighton. It would take 8mins for the train to arrive so I sat on a waiting chair where a young man was already seated, greeted him with a smile and sat beside him, with my backpack on the middle seat separating us.  Train arrived and I jumped on it, sat on a seat beside the toilet but decided to move to another cos of how close it was to the toilet. My earphones were plugged in throughout most of the journey. One & half hours into the journey we arrived at Brighton and people were already stood up waiting to alight, I noticed my backpack was missing.😳🤯 Scurried over and under my seat, see if it was there, but no, it wasn’t. Left...

VOLUNTEERING

By -
Image
I want to stress the need for volunteering. Volunteering means offering your skills, time, and resource to the benefit of other organizations or to someone else, without having an interest in being paid. I know that the term volunteering may sound synonymous with “ OSHOFREE ” for some people, especially Nigerians. It’s not your fault. For an economy where people struggle for survival, people will definitely eschew anything that doesn’t put money on their table. But regardless, the importance of volunteering cannot be overemphasized.  Volunteering gives you the opportunity to render service, and at the same time develop your skills. Sometimes our problem is that we focus too much on our stomachs and on immediate satisfaction that we lose out on many other opportunities for growth.   Yes, “man must survive” but there are so many other factors that can contribute to man’s survival, and some of them include: recommendations, improving your cv, building relationships, having goodw...

“Men Are Polygamous In Nature”

By -

  There is nothing prestigious about marrying many wives. It has not and will never be the ideal! It is considered “traditional” to marry more than one wife, but sometimes when we choose to applaud tradition, we should also look at the context in which those traditions were made—some of which have evolved over time, and some that still definitely need to evolve. Some of these contexts include: Back in the days, women were not seen as “co-human beings” but as mere commodities! Back then, a man’s wealth is measured not just based on the herd of cattle he has, but also based on the number of women he can marry.  Men with more wives were seen as more charismatic and “manly” because it then proves that you can afford to “take care” a large family. So the more wives you have the more respected you are. Also, marrying a woman back then, is not child’s play, you had to pay a “price” called “brideprice”, hence, the more women you have the more “price” you must have paid, and the more p...

Collapsed Lady

On my way to work today, a pregnant lady collapsed and passed out right in front of me. It was on the Overground train.  She had gotten to her stop at Blackhorse road and was just about to alight. And suddenly she slowly collapsed on her back, landing on the floor inside the train.  I was already in panic mode, and the Nigerian in me was quickly gonna grab her as I saw her fall, to prevent her from falling to the floor and possibly hitting her head, but I was surprised to see the other passengers standing and watching her collapse, without doing anything. (This is quite a British attitude anyway. They’ll watch you fall and then ask you “are you okay”? Lol) Part of me felt I might be doing the wrong thing by grabbing her since many others weren’t attempting to do the same, so I held on a bit. I’m pretty new in town, so not entirely sure about what the acceptable reaction is in certain situations. After she had landed on the floor unconscious, a young Black lady then rushed to h...

SUCKING

When I first saw them sucking, so many thoughts ran through my mind; I couldn’t help but wonder what manner of food that could be. Although I was very young, I could still replay the look on their faces whenever they sucked. I’m referring to the 'Calabar' neighbor we had, whose kitchen was marked by the unique redolence. The aroma alone does a public announcement that they are “Calabarians”. I dunno if you’ve tried this sucking before; but my first time was with Afang soup. Afang soup makes no sense without  “suckables” in it. Omg...I lack words to describe By now you’re wondering what exactly this thing is ... “Mfi”, as it is locally called, is simply unshelled periwinkles. It is mostly eaten by Cross Riverians and Akwa Ibomites; and it is characterized by so much sand content. You can tell when someone is cooking with “Mfi” during the washing... The process is so tedious. Enough water and enough patience are the basic tools for washing, as it makes so much nois...

Proudest thing ever!

By -

  One of the proudest things I’ve done in my life is resigning from a toxic work environment. I once worked with this Start-up organization, where the CEO was a real bossy boss.  He was walking in his “CEO shoes” every day of his life, he was so obsessed with achieving his dream for his org that he cared less about his employees!  We would use our personal emails and our personal mobile number to reach out to clients.  I remember suggesting that a work phone should be provided for me because the clients were beginning to encroach on my personal space, but I was told off and tagged a complainer. In so many ways we were going out of our way to help him achieve his goals for his organization, yet these sacrifices meant nothing to him.  He kept demanding more.  He’d give us tasks that encroached into our weekends even though working weekends wasn’t part of our employment contract, and when we fell short of delivery he’d scold us so harshly, making us feel like ...

Equality vs Equity - IWD

By -
Image
Equality means that everyone should have equal amount of everything. But there is another word that I think is way bigger than equality, and that is equity . Equity doesn’t means that everybody should have equal amounts of everything but rather,    equity means that people should have the exact resources and opportunities needed to reach an equal outcome—and in certain situations this means that some people should have more, while some should have less, not because they are considered less humans or less capable, but because it is fair to do so.  Equity means having a balanced distribution of opportunities! And this has been the demands of women from various parts of the world. And equity, for me, means fairness! Because even in equality there can be unfairness, but in equity there’s fairness! And this is what guides my advocacy for women development in society. Equality means asking a millionaire to pay £1000 for tax, and asking a £2000 salary earner to pay the same amou...
