Food is more than just sustenance. It is an experience, a reflection of culture and personality. Choosing between street food and restaurant dining often comes down to what you value in the moment: speed, flavour, ambience, or comfort. Both options offer unique experiences that go beyond simply filling the stomach. Street food is immediate, lively, and deeply connected to local culture. In cities such as Lagos, roadside vendors serve dishes that are rich in flavour and tradition. Street food is usually affordable and accessible to everyone. There is no need for reservations or formalities; you can order, eat, and continue…

Dear Dorothy, I am in my early forties and recently realised I have not given serious thought to retirement. I have always assumed I would sort it out later, but later seems to have arrived rather quickly. I work full time, I have family responsibilities, and like most people, there is always something demanding my income. School fees, rent, extended family obligations, unexpected expenses. Saving often feels like a luxury. I worry that I may have left it too late. I do not own property yet and my pension contributions are not impressive. I am anxious about becoming a burden…
Relationships are meant to offer clarity, comfort and a sense of direction. Even when things are new and unfolding, there is usually a shared understanding that both people are moving somewhere intentional. But what happens when you begin to feel unsure?

Instead, it appears as confusion, mixed signals, and a constant need to decode someone’s behaviour. If you have been questioning where you stand, here are signs…
There is a quiet confidence that sits comfortably on the shoulders of a fulfilled woman. It is not loud, not desperate for validation, and certainly not performative. It is steady. It is rooted. It is earned. Fulfilment looks different for every woman. For some, it is career growth. For others, it is family, service, creativity, or simply inner peace. Whatever form it takes, women who are fulfilled tend to share one common trait. They have stopped apologising for who they are and what they desire. Here are seven things fulfilled women are unapologetic about. Their Boundaries A fulfilled woman understands…
Valentine’s season carries a certain mood. It is softer, warmer and a little more intentional. Whether you are heading out for dinner, attending an event, spending time with friends or enjoying your own company, your makeup can reflect the tone you want to set. Valentine-inspired makeup is less about trends and more about expression. It leans into glow, flushed cheeks, defined eyes and lips that speak before you do. Here is how to approach it. The classic romantic look Think luminous skin, rosy tones and a defined lash line. The foundation of this look is healthy-looking skin. Start with a…
In Nigeria, weddings are not small affairs. They are colourful, loud in the best way, and full of extended family, neighbours, colleagues and “family friends” you have known since childhood. Choosing to hold yours on a public holiday can be a smart move, but only if you plan it well. From Independence Day to Eid celebrations and Christmas, here is how to organise your wedding successfully on a Nigerian public holiday. Choose the right holiday Not all public holidays carry the same weight culturally or religiously. In Nigeria, common options include: New Year’s Day (1 January) Eid al-Fitr and Eid…

Eczema is a common skin condition that affects both children and adults. It often appears as dry, itchy, inflamed skin and can range from mild irritation to severe discomfort. While eczema is not contagious, it can be persistent and emotionally draining. The good news is that with the right care, it can be managed effectively. Understand your triggers One of the most important steps in treating eczema is identifying what makes it worse. Triggers differ from person to person but commonly include harsh soaps, detergents, dust stress, sweat, certain fabrics and changes in weather. Keeping a simple diary of flare…
There was a special kind of creativity that thrived in secondary school corridors, and it had nothing to do with lesson notes or exam answers. It lived in the nicknames we secretly gave our subject teachers. These names were rarely spoken within classroom walls but echoed loudly in whispers during break time, after school walks and group chats long before group chats existed. Every school had the strict Mathematics teacher whose footsteps alone could silence a noisy class. His nickname was often inspired by his no-nonsense approach or his famous red pen. Some students called him names that reflected fear…
