Happy birthday to a happy Lagosian feminist

When you see a girl that plays the draught game,
loves politics, reads and quote Malcom X, Martin Luther King Jr, Chimamanda Adichie Ngozi, Keneth Hagins, Joseph Prince and Jesus Christ, marry her. Guys who read, find girls who read, a lot more attractive than the one's who don't (Its my personal opinion, no offense to anyone). A girl who reads can be a fantastic company, simply because they always have so much to say about everything. You can always rely on her when you need a different perspective about certain things. Like she once told me the biggest reason Obama celebrated the gay law on being passed is because he's one himself. They can help you hold yourself together when you are going through tough times. I believe girls who read, are less judgmental. They always have a book suggestion depending on your present state of life, which is a very valuable thing. They don't burn your pocket much, coz all they want is books all the time. Which are affordable most of the times. Quote their favorite Author, and they go crazy. They are more open minded. They can be great friends. Boya Oluwaseyi Oseyive could not have been described better. The best moments of my undergraduate days were spent with her and those memories were taken away with me. Still cannot unravel the mystery future holds, but regardless, you've occupied a big portion of my heart. Like a candle in the wind constantly flickering and fighting against all odds to stay alive she owns a restless spirit that keeps fighting to make the world a better place. Happy birthday to the happy Lagosian feminist.

One day, I'll write about this place

Unilag Cresol; a derivative of a congenial isomer. One day, I'll write about this place - Kunle Adegunoye. Even after leaving you , I dare not compare you to any other. From the front gate through the Senate building to the back gate, your serenity describes a genuine tranquility. I was a bit baffled when Akokites regard you as the school of first choice and nation's pride. I thought it was normal for them to bask in the ephemeral euphoria of having their education in Nigeria's first University established by the Act of Parliament. Time and again, you have made bold the claim of superiority to others. In my four years here from 2011 to 2015, you twice led the table of Nigerian universities according to NUC. Not only were you "first choice", you taught others how to be first in everything. Our first pride in you was the unilag radio, 103.1 established in 2004. When others saw and started making efforts to achieve the set feat, you moved a step ahead to havi...

ADEBOYE AND OYEDEPO: MEN OF GOD OR MEN OF GOB? by Sylvanus Omoniyi

I want to say something. It is important. But before then, I want to thank all my enemies all over the world who have been supporting me. May God support you with evil things. Also, I want to appreciate all the witches and wizards in the world who dearly love me. Thank you very much. If witches and wizards could like me, who are you not to like me? I have given up on humanity because everyone is stupid. I have decided to be true to my heart because people are not reasonable again, especially in Nigeria. I am yet to find a single reasonable being in Africa. Everyone in Africa is an asshole. We are dumb asses. See, it is not that I derive any pleasure from insulting people. Not at all. The only thing is that I get pissed off when people are being unreasonable.  I have been performing a lot of experiments. On social media. And in reality. You cannot even understand the way I think. Everyday, I strive to be less afraid and to have more freedom. I try to look at things and people and...

Taiwo Adewole, a man from the past future

Image
After returning from an invigorating dance arena at the Education love garden, a curious Kunle asked Taiwo, his ne'er calm friend why he was in the habit of liking his own Facebook posts. Taiwo laughed uproariously and the walruses in the jungle shivers with delight. He pondered the question, laughed again, snorted snuff into his three nostrils, emptied a human skull of last week palmwine and orijin into his snout and said,  "my boy, do you know why, when the lizard survives a fall, it nods its head in self-congratulation? Kunle kept quiet. SMH! Taiwo continued after downing two bowls of nkwobi, three plate of indomie and a human skull of Lager beer and quickly checking his class whatsapp  page to see if anyone wants to pay for docket or class due, "because if the lizard doesn't, no one else will". "If I don't like my post, no one else will", he concluded. Then he took a selfie with Kunle's phone(he had been told about the kamikaze effect ...
