Chocolate Is Too Good For You

The first time you met chocolate you were head over heels in love with chocolate. Who is not?
Well maybe except Tony, Tam, Samson and a host of others. They said you were crazy for loving chocolate so much. You looked back at them and all you could think of was chocolate. How she made you so happy, filling you with enough value for your well being. Her smooth brown skin to sooth you. How she melted when you held her. Making your heart beat rhythmically.

Fast forward to a year later, you thought you have had too much of chocolate so you blamed chocolate for ruining your smile. You went on to tell her she upset you. And all that thickness was crushing you. You told chocolate to tone it down. That brown colour was hurting your eyes. But chocolate knew she could only be chocolate. She knew she was awesome and could not let the world suffer because a certain person did not find her good enough because in reality, chocolate was too good for him. He could not handle all that drip. Chocolate raises the bar every time.

Books To Read In Your Free Time

With a Pandemic before us and the constant advise to wash our hands, social distancing, quarantine. I feel like the best buddy these times is really a book. Not just any book! A good book. So I recommend the following books knowing that you should like it because they are really good. 1. Pride And Prejudice by Jane Austen Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen is set in a different time so you get to escape from the happenings around you and find solace in a different time. Like a handy time machine. And it is also about love so how about that? 2. A Religious Book. As we try to just stay calm and far away from others as much as we can. If you are religious like me, you may cling to the Bible, the Quran, according to your faith. This I know is very rewarding. Like a personal counsellor. 3. Born A Crime by Trevor Noah. Details the childhood of Trevor Noah. Really fun and i...

The People

I know a place filled with a carefree lot. The citizens love living life fast and on the edge. Lord knows how hard they dance on the edge despite knowing that the rock might tilt and they end up at the bottom of the hill. Another thing these people love besides living fast and loud is Hope. One would not blame them because hope seemed to be the only constant thing in their lives. Hope was always there. They could be in a vehicle that is about to explode and their general thought would be; I know this vehicle is about to go up in flames and we will all die but I, however, HOPE!! it does not happen before I get to my destination. They make all sorts of wild decisions; Let us build our houses close to oil fields. And in times of an explosion, we grieve and continue living there anyway. What happens when a pandemic occurs? They fold their arms and hope somehow it will just go away. And with a government that does not put the ci...

Nigerians Versus Foreign Accents

For Nigerians, there is only one solution to a shut door and that is breaking the entire building down. This is because Nigerians always find a way to get through. The fight is never easy. This is why the older generation always dishes out nuggets on survival to the younger generation. You just have to survive! Even if it means changing a lot of things about yourself like your complexion, age, accent. Today, I am going to focus on fake accents. This almost every Nigerian is guilty of. Sounding foreign in order to be steps ahead of people who sound “ local” . With this fake accent, you can penetrate into almost any space in the society. Does not matter the nationality you represent as long as you sound foreign. One would assume this must be pretty frustrating. Yes, it is. How is this frustration eased? By making fun of those who still speak with a Nigerian intonation by calling them derogatory names when in truth, the individual with both a Brit...
