I have seen👀



I have seen

But could be in trouble if I say


I have seen a wife

lied to her husband

that she's away to see her mum

when in actuality

promiscuity took her from Ibadan to Lagos


I have seen a husband

pretending before the wife to be broke

but giving luxury to Bola the side chick

getting home late with excuse on traffic

raining curses on his innocent boss


I have seen some children

multiplying tuition fee by four

for flex and designer tops

prodigious living on parent's loan


I have seen

But could be in trouble if I say


I have seen pickpockets

at bus stops during rush hour

unleashing their terror 

but "fem" my mouth is shut


I have seen MDs

who pretend to be kind

desperate to taste honey in jar

before giving out the job

"use what you have to get what you want"

Congratulations, resume on Monday


I have seen business owners

selling their products and services

with exaggerated qualities

Mere falsity for pecuniary gains


I have seen

But could be in trouble if I say


I have seen politicians

promising heaven on earth

sugar-coated mouth of men and women

failed promises in four years or eight


I have seen celebrities

flaunt wealth and bask in affluence

expensive life for the gram

may be suffering and smiling


I have seen pastors

stage miracles

heresies and misinterpreted scriptures

dancing to devil's tune at midnight

most righteous at daytime


My eyes have seen

My ears have heard

But I could be in trouble if I say

Something big🔘

We all get happy when we hear our share is bigger than someone else's. Naturally as humans, we would always want more just like Oliver Twist. Shall I say we even hate to share things equally among others? We are most likely to negotiate with others to make them see reasons why we should have more of the normal share. Just like two people sharing the sum of #10,000, one may have to remind the other that he's older, whether he knows the person that gave them the money or maybe he worked more. So, I was eating pounded yam and egusi this afternoon (Well, I'm not willing to entertain any question about how I got the meal package sha). The meat was big and looks too gluttonous to be consumed but deep down I kind of like the fact that the meat was big. Most times, we want big things. Getting big pay, big contracts, big meats, big apartments even some guys like ''big and bang-bodied ladies.'' But wait, with all this big big stuff, what if someone gifted you a dress

Overcoming inferiority 🤳

  There are two sets of people reading this: those that have experienced my current state and those looking forward to it. Maybe I haven't said this but right now I'm blogging as a graduate. Yaaaay I'm not here to wail and narrate ordeals but you would agree with me the journey isn't bread and butter if you study in any of Nigeria's federal or state owned institutions. I want to believe that whoever has taken a step to pursue whether NCE, ND, HND, B.Sc/B.A/B.Ed/B.Agric/B.Tech, L.Lb or any other program in a tertiary institutions should be lauded indiscriminately. For someone like me, I would say it's the survival of the fittest. Almost weighed down and battling with inferiority complex among my friends in the university but at last I had to shake it off as in 'odeychi' Prior to this time, I mean about 5years ago during my ND, I always try to evade conversation that probe into where I school. I could remember how I would always lie to an admirer or any ot

Women👩👧

 Most times we often depict the female gender as vulnerable. They are exposed to danger and all form of ill treatment in the society. I could remember a speech I delivered to my fellow coursemstes some years back in an English Presentation class. It was titled ''You're invaluable as a woman'' and it was targeted at appreciating the female gender. Coming from a family of six where my dad was the only male, I was so interested in the topic which made me treat it personally. Well, I believe by now we should have debunked the ancient myths of ''female children do not need formal education'' or ''a girl child will end up being in the kitchen'' and so on. Even though President Buhari once made a statement that undermined the female gender particularly about the First lady belonging to the other room. He retracted his words later but we all know the school of thought to which he belong. Women go through a lot, let's be factual about it.
