Who Gets To Tell The Story? - "Africa The Hopeless Continent"!

By -
Image
The just-completed Global Reporting Summit organized by One World Media  on 12.20.21 with the Theme: “Who Gets to Tell The Story ?” was one of the most brilliant conferences I’ve attended this year, bringing key global issues to the table.   It was my first time meeting and listening to Moky Makura a Middle East Contributor and CEO of Africa No Filter . I really admired how insightful her speech was and it left me extremely inspired. Moky spoke about “How influential the media is in creating and changing narratives”. Once I saw the topic I didn’t think twice before buying the ticket to attend the event because I felt this was one interesting issue that needed to be talked about more often.   Moky began her speech with two interesting questions: When I say Africa, what comes to your mind? What influences your perspective about Africans? And she went ahead to highlight, based on her organisation’s research, some factors that influence the way people think and sp...

Dear Newlyweds…

By -

  Please don’t let anybody pressure you into when and how you should have children.  Please people should stop having “children-expectation” from newly married couples.  When a couple is newly married and after a year no child, people start labeling them as though they have fertility issues.  But that’s not always true. People have different reasons for not having kids immediately. And one of them is building intimacy.  📍 I think that the first few years of marriage should be used to build intimacy with your partner.  This intimacy and friendship are what will hinge both partners together in the long run.  📍 Because whether you like it or not, when children start coming it can never be that same.  There’ll be a lot of distractions and divided attention.  📍 Your Intimacy is more or less like glue in the relationship, and it is pertinent because your children will become adults and eventually leave to stay on their own, and you will be left ...

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...

Nobody Will Know !!! (PronunciationHacks)

By -
Image
  I’ve paid keen attention to the English pronunciations here in the Uk, and I’ve come to find out that they don’t stress themselves to pronounce words ‘correctly’, as we non-natives are taught to. There’s a trick to their pronunciations and I’ve tagged it the “nobody-will-know” style. So for most    English speakers here, for example in pronouncing THOUGHT, instead of using their tongues in between their teeth to produce a theta sound, they rather use the F sound.  So when they say a sentence like “I THOUGHT you’ll be coming to the event”, you’ll hear: “I FOUGHT you’ll be coming to the event”. That’s the trick! 😂   So, dear non-native English speakers, stop stressing yourself and biting your tongues in attempt to pronounce words correctly, the owners of English don’t stress themselves.  ✅  Feel free to say: FREE instead of THREE, no body will know!  🤷‍♀️   ✅  Say VEM instead of THEM. No body will know!  🤷‍♀️ ✅  Say FREE FIR...

“Keep an eye on her”...

By -
Image
  I did something today that I’m really proud of, even though I ended up breaking down in tears after — Calling out racism! I’ve met lovely people across all races since I moved to the UK. I’ve had very pleasant and memorable experiences. But I’ve also encountered people who left me with unpalatable experiences. One very repetitive disgusting experience is RACISM!  I don’t care how covert it is, it is evident and it absolutely disgusting! So today I discovered a massive mall not very far from me and I went on a tour. It is called Exchange mall located in Illford East London!  One of the shops I visited was TK Maxx , I looked around a bit as I window shopped, and on my way out as I approached the exit door, I saw a security staff dutifully positioned there.  I clearly heard one of his colleagues giving him an instruction through his walkie-talkie phone. He said, “The Black Female approaching, keep an eye on her”.  Now, I was the only Black female approaching the ...

Dear International Student...

As you arrive to study in the UK this September, here are a few clues to keep in mind: 1. Have your jackets with you even though it’s summer! It is better to have one and not need it than to need one and not have it. Because you can find summer, winter, and autumn, in one day; There’s nothing as unpredictable as a BRITISH WEATHER! Escalators in some London train stations        2. Just immediately after you alight the plane you’ll be met with long-ass escalators which looks like they’re taking you to heaven. Some of you may already be familiar with them, some may not, and just like me, you may develop a phobia for escalators and feel like you’re gonna fall down when you place your first foot on it, but don’t worry, it’ll soon become your friend.  Stratford Coach Station, London.      3. You’ll begin to hear phrases like "get a coach"!  Don’t look clueless! It’s just another way of saying “get a bus”. Speaking about buses, don’t forget to pres...

World Book Day!

By -

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...

Nigeria’s President

By -
Image
  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...

ONE BIG FAMILY...BEFORE greets AFTER

By -
Image
#ONE_BIG_FAMILY It’s been over two months since their story shook the internet. A family of five that was known for their bizarre lifestyle and affliction. Ben, his wife and three kids for over seven years roamed the hinterlands of Bekwarra-Ogoja, Cross River State in search of nothing in particular. Adorned in their customary rags and spotting dreadlocks, which is typical of insane people in Nigeria, they found a home sleeping in open fields and in the cold. Two months after
