Face your fears

-
Guys, if a girl doesn’t like you, she doesn’t like you. Even if you “make it” she may like your money but just not you. The moment you stop buying her designer bags and expensive food, you’re back to square one, “a good friend”. She could be in bed all day and claim to be ill, has family crises or a shit load of work to catch up with.
“And Karma said, you will fall in love with someone who doesn’t love you, for not loving someone who did”.

I’ve liked people that didn’t like me back. Most recently was Michael, a guy I met on Twitter. A guy I wanted to make the center of my universe. Lamentably, he just wasn’t “into” me.
Here’s to everyone that feels devalued, you’re beautiful and intelligent, don’t let insecurity run your life. Keep resting and not rushing because God’s timing is everything.

Cheers!

The Unspeakable State of Hostels in University of Nigeria, Nsukka

-
For the sake of this article, let me re-introduce myself. My name is Chisom Juanita Mefor, a 300 level undergraduate student of University of Nigeria, Nsukka. I live in Tafawa Balewa Hostel, a place students are reduced to inhuman conditions. Let me assert that everything written here  is thematic, though there are cross-references, it is wholly based on facts.                                                                       Personally, I think if Human Rights are Rights we get for being Humans, then decent accommodation should at least be Rights we get for being students. I live in Balewa Hostel, 200 series on the right wing. This hostel was built by Nnamdi Azikiwe in 1955 during the golden era, a time in which individuals who now serve as Heads of these same Institutions lived in single rooms, had acce...

Armed Words: Totalitarianism of Igbo Marginalization (A letter from Adaigbo to Wole Balogun)

-
I have delayed this article for two reasons. One- that I may come off as ill-mannered and tribalistic. Two- I may lose the little viewership that keeps me going. As matter of the former, people tend to feel a certain sense of entitlement when I write, most of whom I probably don’t even know- anonymous blog commenters. I want to assert that before being Nigerian, I am an Igbo girl, fast turning into a woman. And, if being defensive of Ndigbo (my people) makes me racist, tribalistic or bigoted, I wear that label with pride. I wrote this as a reply to an article published at the back page of Sun Newspapers on 20th October, 2018 titled Atiku/Obi ticket: S’West Igbo leader to Ndigbo: Don’t put all your eggs in one basket by Wole Balogun . In Balogun’s article, he ascertains that Ndigbo are politically unintelligent, outright unsmart by putting all their eggs in one basket. The “basket” of whom I suppose should be Alhaji Atiku Abubakar. This article is favored of neither APC nor PDP. ...

Understanding Sexual and Gender-based Violence (A reply to Augustus Bill)

Tops of the day, Sir,  Firstly, I would like to acknowledge that I was undeniably exhilarated when I read your comment on my SGBV Article. I thank you for always sharing your thoughts, your encouragement keeps me going.  Sir, on your argument about the exclusion and disregarding of Nigerian women in National Politics/lack of participation by the women folk, I admit there are truths to most of what you said, but I have an argument in favor of the women (the sex I belong to).   You would agree with me that the society we belong to does not encourage women in politics, that women are given slots in several political parties to contest for free is merely theoretical. Customarily, Political gatherings usually take place at nights. I have a number of female friends working as aides. And, all of them arrive home at anomalous hours. People say that “Politics is a dirty game” and I can wholeheartedly attest that it is not a myth. Politics is so dangerous and time-consuming....
