Given the history and culture of patriarchy in Nigerian society, today’s women and their independence have profound effects on the men in their lives for better or worse. In this article, we examine some of these issues. An independent woman brings to a relationship her own needs and circumstances which any man involved with her cannot ignore or wish away. If she already has her career going, any man getting into a relationship with her has to adjust to this reality. Today’s independent woman is not about to give up her career for the sake of any man. It is…

A healthy relationship presupposes that: Both individuals support each other, sharing the good times and helping or supporting each other through the bad times. Both individuals matter deeply to each other. Feelings of trust and respect are reciprocal. Both partners feel good about each other and themselves. The partners are commited to making the relationship work and they feel that the effort is worthwhile because they are in a good relationship. Where these ingredients abide, it enables the persons in the relationship to face the world with confidence. However not all relationships are healthy as much we might want them…

My dear daughter, Love is a many-splendored thing, and finding the one you love and who loves you in return may be a tall order but it happens all the time to most of us as it did between your mum and me.

My dear as you seek for the one you love and who loves you in return, you will encounter many characters – men who…
Dear Dorothy, I have been married for eight years to a man who was once the love of my life. We have a son together. I recently found out that my husband who travels a lot around the country because of the nature of his job is a serial cheat. While I have been loyal to him all these years, and alone by my lonesome self with my son, always missing him and looking forward to when his job brings him back home, he has been having a jolly good time with different women all over the country. How do…
Last week was a different week. There was an unusual consensus that Black Panther was the best black movie of all times. Set in Wakanda, a cutting-edge, futuristic and most developed country in the world, Black Panther portrayed Africans as ingenious, civilised and a generation of polymaths. But in the midst of this huge box office success, African and African originated brands were a no-show in the cinematic masterpiece. Before making any conclusions, we can make plausible excuses. Perhaps Marvel, the producer of the film wanted it that way. Maybe they wanted the audience to focus more on the content…

A young man once told me how he was very reluctant to approach a girl in his circle of acquaintance because she was “more successful” than him. She drove a brand new car compared to his old car. Long story short, when he realised he liked her very much and asked her out, he found that despite her material success, she was human, humble and proper. Today they are happily married. When it…
