Back then every young teenage Nigerian boy spent the majority of his time on Facebook before we all decided to occupy the streets of Twitter. But I’m unsure if Facebook was my curse or blessing. You decide. It was on the Zuckerberg app I saw her for the first time. If her looks could speak, it would have warned this mesmerized teenage boy to guard his heart because he was venturing into uncharted territories. Her name is Nkiruka and from her unretouched Facebook pictures, she was reminiscent of a goddess. To borrow the current ubiquitous term on social media, I…

I open my eyes to pitch darkness; there was no one in sight. The environment feels cold but I feel sweat dripping down the side of my face. There’s not a single sound, the silence is deafening. My breathing is heavy and I can’t breathe properly because my mouth is covered with duct tape. I try to move but my hands and legs are tied together behind my back, like a goat about to be slaughtered. I lay still on the floor and at this point, my heartbeat is louder than the sound of a bass drum in a marching…

Trailing the runway of the concluded Paris Fashion Week and the designer servings, we couldn’t help but notice the throwback, time capsule pieces that left nostalgic feelings. Fashion is the perfect recycling machine; nothing ever really goes out of style and times like this serves as proof when designers fetch from the same inspiration well. For Gucci’s Spring/Summer 2019 collection, Alessandro Michele created pieces with textures, patterns and silhouette reminiscent of the 60’s 70’s and 80’s nightclub scene. While Isabel Marant staged a runway decorated with disco elements and clothes made from silvery, shiny fabrics. Fashion is ever evolving but…

Question: Are you single and searching? Answer: Yes Question: How come? Haven’t you met the right woman? Answer: No I haven’t; girl’s these days are quite fake. Fake hair, faux lashes and claw-like artificial fingernails are their beauty watch-words. Now, the coke-shape is in and cosmetic surgery is in high demand. Ladies are clamouring to look as unreal as possible. To be honest, only men who often laugh to the bank get all the attention. Question: I understand. Basically, innocent girls are hard to find, right? Answer: Exactly! Question: But, have you also considered that you may not have the…

Groups were a big deal in the 90’s and for some reason, music seemed better when there was a marriage of vocals that created harmony. Any music aficionado conversant with music from the 90’s would know that there were several groups that were an all-time favourite despite their eventual disbandment. Today, we are throwing it back to our favourite music groups from the 90’s. K-Ci and Jojo At the time when most African American artists were venturing into hardcore rap, this R&B duo serenaded our eardrums with love songs. Boys II Men This 90’s quartet R&B group banded by Nathan…
A beloved uncle of mine often said: “Loving without reasoning is a recipe for a disastrous relationship” I don’t know if most girls are aware, but secretly, most men want to marry a virgin despite how many girls they’ve slept with. In this age of pervasive promiscuity, it is important to note that sex is not to be indulged in lightly. As the mammy wagon philosopher will have us know, “Every action has its own Wahala”, so you have to “shine your eyes” (as we like to advise, with intense expression) and weigh the pros and cons before you engage…
Some may pin her as a radical feminist because of her controversial views which aren’t in tandem with the patriarchal ideologies of the average African society. Even those who claim to pitch their tent under the umbrella of feminism aren’t entirely in support of her, but notwithstanding we can’t deny her guts of steel and fearlessness to attack a sitting culture that, for years, has seen women in a lesser light. Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie is our Woman Crush Wednesday. The writer and very vocal advocate for feminism recently had an event on the 22nd of September tagged ‘An Evening With…
