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

Can I live your life for you??

What happens when a lot of people are pointing out the right way you ought to live for you? The moment someone says "it's done this way" and another tell you "that way would be better" All you put yourself to is simply FRUSTRATION. Generally speaking, we love acceptance as human beings. We want to do things that would make people proudly have our backs and say yes, that's my friend or that's my child. The moment we crave for people's acceptance, we tend to be vulnerable by giving ears to what people around us say so that when they tell us they don't like what we've done, we just at times gullibly adjust that thing even when we knew we had done nothing wrong. This act is referred to as PEOPLE- PLEASING.  It happens when we are so conscious of what people might say about us so as not to break ties with friends or loved ones.  When people around us notice this vulnerability, they would be delighted in tossing us to and fro like they do to coins ...

New Year Resolution 📝

This resolution of a thing sef, it's always somehow. Many of us pledge to do some things or even vow to stop some things at the beginning of a year but eventually we get incapacitated. How numerous resolution get discarded by February baffles me alot sha. Another worst thing about this is that some people even forget they made a resolution as regards a particular thing. They remember at the close of the year and promise themselves they would turn it over to the incoming year and the cycle goes on and on. Why do we find it hard to stick by our resolutions? According to Oxford Advanced Learner's Dictionary, resolution may mean : A strong will, determination. A statement of intent, a vow. Some people, after so many failed resolutions have given up, they want to go with the flow of ''anything goes.'' The idea isn't that bad, it is however good when we map out how we want the new year to be. Whether to inculcate new things or thrash stuff that ain't ideal. Do...

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. ...
