This post is segmented into  Lessons and  Highlights .  And the latter will provide hyperlinks to different articles on the subject. 2021 LESSONS… "It is only a fool that lives life without taking its lessons". I believe that everything that hits you, good or bad, leaves you with something. So h ere are my 21 takeaways from the year 2021. Some of them are patterns I adopted for myself and recommend, whilst some are lessons: Be patient! Live in the moment! Focus on yourself and be kind to yourself! Be at your best, don’t try to shrink yourself! Think less; “ Overthinking nor fit solve problems” ( Nigerian Pidgin English ) . Communicate; be expressive! Lower your expectations of others! See situations as an opportunity to learn; also learn from others! You don’t know everything and you can’t! Genuinely admit your flaws and mistakes! Not everyone is worth lowering your standards for! Don’t judge yourself based on other people's opinions! Have firm boundaries and walk away w...

DAY IN THE NIGHT

Night turned day in Calabar as we savored every minute of the carnival till the last bone. I nor gree go house, as I made sure that I saw every band, their presentation and costumes which was lit. As at 1.am I was still walking, following the huge crowds of people from all walks of life trekking on the road like the people of Israel heading the promise land. Sleep departed for a while but trust me, as a 10 O’clock sleeper that I am, I couldn’t hold back for long. I Dey do ‘Strong head’, Dey from ‘Agbakara’, remain small I for land for inside gutter duuuuuuum  as I began sleeping-walking and reeling like Clint De Drunk but thank Jah for my buddy who stood beside me John Edom, he held my hand like a baby and led me to the path of “Right-teousness” while I sleep-walked. I saw kids running around and doing the Jerusalem trekking too, women and men and babes of my age still catching the midnight fun and the whole electrifying exuberance. I just couldn’t accept the fact that I...

Gun vs Knife Culture

By -
Image
  Unlike the USA, there aren’t many guns in the UK, and people barely have access to it. A colleague was narrating how she was almost robbed in her neighborhood, and when I asked what weapon the criminal used she said it was a knife. Knife crime is on the rise in many parts of London and across the UK. That’s why it is quite difficult to walk into a shop in the UK to buy a knife. Firstly, not many shops sell knives and the ones that sell will ask for some sort of proof or ID before selling, thereby making them quite difficult to access.  Obviously, in America, there’s a high record of gun violence. Someone can literally walk into a shop and get a gun, from what I heard, it is that easy. And so, between the UK and the US, I really can’t say one is better as per knife or gun violence because both of them are capable of sending people to their graves. In one community in London, I witnessed a knife crime incident where a secondary school kid was stabbed right in front of his scho...

BDSM

By -
Image
BDSM - An acronym for ' bondage and discipline, dominance and submission, sadism and masochism' . It is a form of sex where one person inflicts pain on the other for pleasure. And I will never understand the concept behind it.  Because why will you tie me with ropes and handcuffs, and flog me with a belt in the name of lovemaking? I find this insane!  You can call me old school but it just doesn’t make sense to me. There’s a difference between sexual abuse and abusive sex, and BDSM for me is abusive sex!  In research I participated in, I interviewed a lady who said that her husband cuts her lips with a blade and sucks her blood when having sex with her because sucking her blood turns him on the more. My people, please what do you call this? Vampire moves in the name of lovemaking! It is psychopathic!   It is called “love making” for a reason, and love in itself should not inflict pain on another, no matter how pleasurable it feels.  You mustn’t practice eve...

Success Adegor Viral Video...Okotie Eboh Primary School Renovated

“It is important to place on record and for the avoidance of doubt that the Contract of the first phase was awarded on the 29th of December, 2018 and work has since commenced.” Success Adegor: Delta Govt Suspends Headmistress The Delta State government has suspended the headmistress of Okotie-Eboh Primary School 1, Sapele Local Government of the state, Mrs. Vero Igbigwe. She was suspended following the viral video where little Success Adegor was sent home over her parents’ failure to pay her examination levies. Igbigwe was suspended on Monday when the Commissioner for Education, Barr. Chiedu Ebie, visited the school. The head teacher, according to the commissioner, could not explain the alleged illegal collection of examination levies from the school students. A statement by the commissioner explained why primary and secondary education in Delta remained free, insisting the head teacher had no right to impose any levy. He said: “In my brief encounter wit...

Nigeria’s President

By -

  The reason why many Nigerian youths seem to be garnering a massive movement for the Presidential aspirant Peter Obi is not that they are guaranteed that he’ll be the “savior”, but because youths are tired of recycling the same old self-conceited egocentric politicians as leaders.  They want something new, something different, something original! And they don’t care who he is or where he’s from! And my prayer is that their votes will count this time around!  Over the years, I’ve always been a backbencher in matters associated with politics, but when you hear prospective leaders of your country using sentences like “it is my turn to rule”, you just become provoked and triggered to speak up!  Perhaps in the minds of these leaders, they see the country as a business venture that family members take turns to run. This is absolutely unacceptable! Nigeria is not a monarchy that operates on a turn-by-turn basis.  “I put the outgoing President in that position, therefo...

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 ...

Dig Where You Stand!

I know of a man who said he doesn’t want to have any children because the world is already overpopulated and he doesn’t want to add to the world’s population. He is 50+ and single, and this is the reason he lives the way he does.  There’s this woman in his neighborhood who’s got 8 children. He makes reference to her everytime, and says he’s so pissed to see that just one person has so many children; he gets so vexed that according to him, the woman should be arrested! 🤣 Lol... At first this seemed really ludicrous to me, but come to think of it, isn’t it interesting to see how people take small individual steps to making change in the world? We too can do the same, we don’t necessarily have to choose to not bear children, but in many other ways, like: -  lending a hand,  - contributing towards development work,  - trashing the rubbish in the bin instead of dropping it on the floor,  - engaging in community development, etc,  we too can make choices that co...

World Book Day!

The UK has a very contagious reading culture. The habit of reading is something I find very fascinating, being a book lover myself! In the UK, you’ll find people reading books on the bus, train, plane, in the park, on the streets, and even while walking on the road (which is unsafe btw) lol. They not only read books, but they also read and leave for others to read. You could be walking around a neighborhood and find books lying outside someone’s house with the caption “they’re free, help yourself”. Snapshots of book lovers reading on the train/bus - captured by Progress Oberiko "Free books, please help yourself" In charity shops, you’ll find tons of donated books sold at very cheap rates. It is such a lovely culture. And lately, as a bookworm, I’ve found myself retracing my steps back to my first love – books! I’ve recently started Investing in books again and falling in love with my reading passion all over again. Not only with hard copy books but also audiobooks.   Last yea...

IN MY SHOES

Your current situation has a very intelligent way of influencing you. If you’re in a very critical condition, prolly sick or hoping for something, the people and the surrounding you keep finding yourself can either make you get better or worse! Okay lemme explain... I had a very terrible experience years ago when I suffered from swollen legs, dunno what happened, my legs were swelling,  took drugs and stuff but seemed futile. Anytime I went out, the class of people I saw were people whose legs were amputated, crawling, or crippled and this sent a negative message to my mind. I was like ‘O God, so this is how I’m gonna loose my legs” ?I said to myself ‘I AM FINISHED’! No Hope!t This feeling almost crippled my mind cos it kept recurring, even in the market, I saw them everywhere. Twas like the devil’s tactics to paralyze my mindset negatively. But I devised a technic to overcome them such that whenever those thoughts came, or whenever I saw people with critical situatio...
