The Good Life

ONYEKA ONWENU DEAD? I woke up to the shocking news. Just yesterday, she was on this side of the divide, very much alive and was doing what she loved best; singing. How could anyone have known that was gonna be her last performance as she slumped shortly after and died. Oh Onyeka! A woman of class and poise  Graced, beautiful and blessed with an ageless voice. Her songs had something meaningful to say. She sang for love, She sang for the unity of Nigeria She sang for peace Always smiling Full of life and hoped for a better Nigeria No matter how many times death comes knocking, no one can get used to it. So here we are with mixed feelings and tears giving our salute to a wonderful hero who not only made Nigeria proud but was a source of joy in our homes. FAREWELL TO A WORTHY NIGERIAN! WE ARE PROUD OF YOU!

Yesterday, it was government selling a bag of rice for #40,000 and then we saw the places were rice was being distributed freely, even on the highway. The current market price of rice is 80k plus, the government has never bothered about that but in 24 hours, we saw them do crazy things. Where did they keep this rice they're sharing all these while? There's been massive deployment of politicians, influencers, leader and all sorts to try to stop the masses from engaging in the forthcoming protests. Today it was thugs walking the market place and streets threatening people not engage in the protest. How about the people that we've seen protesting against the forthcoming protest? Days ago it was the President's daughter that was issuing a warning to people not to engage in the protest. Meanwhile the President has not bother to say a single word to address the people or the on going economic situation of the country but the government has employed a million and o...

Helllllloooooo My Dear, Easy easy Take a deep breath and quit crucifying yourself None of us came into the world holding manual on how we should live out our lives that is why there's room for mistakes. There's no human on planet earth that hasn't made a mistake at something There's no perfect human either So why do you keep recounting that incident? Why won't you let go of the erroneous decision you made in the past? Why have you let that event haunt you over and over so much so that it's hanging over your head like a banner and determining how you e been living your life? Life is full of mystery Learn from your mistake, forgive yourself and avoid a repeat. Sometimes, destiny might be designed that the circumstances that looks like a mistake will become the source of your lifting. Do not bury your head in the sand over an error There's no time to keep throwing yourself a pity party Dust yourself and move on Greater things await you!

Dispute in marriage is something no couple wants to discuss how much more get into. In a way,I think it kinda favours women and my case study from homes with loving relationship. Remember the phrase 'Happy wife, happy life?'🤣🤣🤣 This is very much true cos no man wants to funny dramas women put up. First things first, the men don't even understand the subtle signs we women drop here and there. Then if by some miracle they do, they won't even know how to begin to deal with the situation because typically, we say Leave me when we want to be held Don't talk to me when we're re actually wishing in our heart they won't stop trying to beg, pet and try to talk to us Ok, you can do what you want, when we're inwardly screaming no. So the men have simply found a blanket rule for survival which is, for the sake of peace and to ease stress, 'the wife is always right'. This is quite funny and doesn't make any sense to the logical guy out ther...

To whom much is given... Somewhere, somehow, along your life's journey, somebody showed you grace, someone helped you stand Someone was your voice when you couldn't speak Someone stood as your biggest cheerleader Someone held the touch for you Someone gave up their slot for you Someone smuggled you in Someone stuck out their neck for you Someone deprived themselves of something for you Someone stood as your voice of reason or voice of encouragement Someone helped you fight your demons A few years later... Now you're standing and your mantra is ' If I didn't have it easy, no one will' You've become a big stumbling block Instead of showing people the door, you have become the wedge at the door Why should A, B or C have that? Do they know how I suffered while coming up? Since I went through hell and high waters I'll make others experience same, if not worse You have become the gate keeper Everyone must appease you or else. Well, I'm here to ...

Imagine a five year old kid asking the father to be given a car to drive. No matter how wealthy that father is, he'd never grant such request. This is how God also deals with us. There are things or times we've prayed, prayed and prayed some more but it seems there's no answer to our requests and sometimes we even get angry at God but truth is, we never know what an alternative response will become to us. It's a fundamental truth that no loving father will withhold any good thing from a child he loves. So when we pray and it's all silent, it might even be a reason for Thanksgiving. I've seen people who the car they just bought led to their death A friend of my family who has been praying for the blessing of a child for over 5 years finally got her answer. She delivered a healthy and beautiful boy, by the third day, she slumped and died. That job, that promotion, and other things you're seeking for, even trying to be in good terms with some person...

Iyaloja of Edo State? I saw a disturbing clip where the Edo state market leader was complaining that Tinubu"s daughter who is the Iyaloja of Lagos Markets - basically the leader of Lagos markets wants to impose a new leader in Edo state. One would think there is an end to greed, thuggery or the need to be in control. After doing her business in Lagos for as long as her father was the governor and continuing afterwards, just as her father emerged as the president she now wants to wield her powers on all the markets in Nigeria. Beyond the economic sabotage this will be for the country, because she will begin to dictate the process of commodities and as we know, they would be at cut-throat prices so she can have a percentage in all the sales but then there is also proxe Control. What next would it be?  it's not like Lagos markets have been the best or like they do not leave so much to be desired. But then again... what do I even know?
