Left the middle-aged man hooting and hollering to focus on the women...

I read through him a long time ago and blocked anything that has to do with him. Same pattern with that one called SB. Men who deeply hate women and mask it with religion and plenty of motivational talk. Women never learn. I will be here when it unfolds.

She is a Swiss citizen. Her government has evacuated her so she can continue her care.
She is stable enough to fly, which is a good sign. I just hope we are in line to receive some of the rare antibodies she will have once she makes a full recovery.
The Minister of Health should explain why Nigeria is evacuating its Ebola index patient to another country.
Is it cheaper?
And for how long?
For me, this exposes serious weaknesses in our health system. 🤦
If Nigeria can detect Ebola, isolate the patient and trace contacts but cannot provide the required critical care, it reveals a major gap between our outbreak detection capacity and our ability to deliver comprehensive treatment.

You know, my takeaway from Romeo and Juliet has always been that young people are foolish and impulsive.
Yes the times they lived in yadayada. Those were two STUPID rebellious children. Their families should have let them date. They would have broken up three weeks later anyway

When you are unmarried & childless there is an undeniable pressure to show off other accomplishments. Like your career has to be exceptional in order to justify “choosing it over” a relationship

“I’ve never had a stylist in my life, I’ve always styled myself throughout my career. People always say, ‘Ebuka your stylist dey try’
I picked suits from Johannesburg and worked with Seyi Vodi, I sit with creatives and before the start of any season, I already know what I will wear at the finales”

We can argue it’s satirical, allegorical, and many more in favor or against.
But have we considered the fact that, it was heralded as the greatest love story for the longest time even though it had other elements, and it became a form of description for love, even for the layman?

My only contribution to the Romeo and Juliet brouhaha; these characters were presented as passionate teens deeply committed to their legendary love that transcended the hate each family carried.
The tragedy is in the consequences of holding on to hate even in the face of “love.”

Romeo and Juliet’s deaths weren’t the only thing that made the story a tragedy btw. It was the culmination of a world so consumed by chaos, violence and conflict that their deaths became the inevitable resolution. The world they lived in offered them no safe way to love.

The way most Nigerian parents don't view their children as autonomous humans shocks me.
Wdym you're still beating your grown children???
Once in a while, you have to show your parents there's no monopoly of madness.
The fuck

They started with your face, moved on to your waist, and now they're after your knees. Meanwhile, endometriosis and PCOS research still can't get funded. Capitalism at its finest.
Just strong your mind, and in the words of my mother, "God will not let us know how much we spend on our children"
