RomanceRe: How Do I Tell A Friend To Stop Bringing Girls To Have Sex In My Apartment? by calliope(f): 10:36pm On Aug 12, 2018
You just tell them.

How hard can that be?

What's the worst that can happen?

They walk away from that friendship? Fine, aleast you've got your peace of mind intact. I don't displease myself for anyone. Ever.

ladiesreject:
You mustn't be a Christian or Muslim to make heaven, you just have to live right..
To live right, you must FIRST learn to speak and act right.. You can't feign righteousness and outrightly condemn other people. It doesn't work like that.

Plus, living Faith no be church, na business enterprise. Church weh na youths plenty pass that one na church? Brothers and sisters meeting to discuss how to fvck. Example ""Winners Corpers Fellowship""
See wetin person wey de talk about "living right", open mouth de pour undecided

Hypocrisy much?

Please where is their head office located?
It's adjacent to the government hospital along igbogbo road. If you're coming from laspotech/Agric, alight at ikorodu garage, then board a keke; tell him/her you are headed to inec, It's 100naira.

I just had the same nasty experience here in Ikorodu, and this is my second time of trying to get the PVC
Go to their head office. Ask for lacasera. Buy some recharge card for him, and you'd be amongst the first 10 persons that would be attended to. You can thank me later.
PoliticsRe: My Bad Experience During Voter's Card Registration In Abuja by calliope(f):
I got mine the Nigerian way, after going four consecutive times and keep getting the no185 even when I got there as early as 6:00am.. I got frustrated and almost gave up.

Until one alfar liadat told me the security man collects recharge card just to put one's name on the pre-form list as early as 5am, mehn..
na so my name enter no 3 shocked
Let's just say, I was amongst the first five who got registered on the fifth day.

You see ehn, Nigeria is a very useless country.
A country where doing the right thing would only cause you unnecessary suffer head and still make you look very stupid. I learnt to do it "the Nigerian way", I guess that's the only practical/obtainable way to get things done in this country.

Bobrisky has transitioned right in front of our eyes and nothing has happened cheesy

This right here is what transvisibility and bravery looks like. I wish more queer people can muster courage to live their truth by emulating her.

We here n we queer. Haters y'all just have to learn to deal with it. smiley

I follow the Bible 100% you're free to call me any name you want
Follow the Bible? How so? Cos the Bible never likened poor, despondent children to witchery. Or did it? I stand to be corrected.

This move is not bad

People may misunderstood her mums punishment as wickedness but believe me, it's discipline

Even the Bible obliged us to suffer not a witch to live

From the child's look alone, she resembles a boy

She must definitely be a witch

That woman is really a good mother and I will advise ladies to learn a lot from her

The only area where she failed is that she didn't fully obey Christ's commandment by still giving the child a chance to live

Children like that don't have a future

Most of them died immediately after graduating from college

After causing severe increase in momentum of family's poverty rate and financial downfall

The wisest decision is to completely kill the child
you sound r*tarded and sick; seek help urgently.

RomanceRe: What’s The Most Memorable Moment You Shared With A Stranger? by calliope(f):
I was once stranded at peace park enugu sometime around January last year, someone had unknowingly to me snatched my purse from my bag, Thankfully I had my bus fare stuffed somewhere in my jean pocket, but unfortunately, I was 500naira short and my purse, ATM card, phone, all gone.

I went over to the lady at the counter, narrated my ordeal and pleaded, that I have been patronizing their company for years, and should be considered.
she gave me the we-are -sorry-but-there's-nothing-we-can-do-about-it look. I was dumbstruck. I could not afford to go back to nsukka. While I stood contemplating on what next to do, this middle-aged man walked up to me, told me he overheard my conversation with the other lady, right there, he counted 5k handed it to me and said, hurry now, catch the bus before it leaves.. Kai! I was like "sir, it's only 5h short not 5k" but he wave it off and walked away. My eyes were teary, I managed to mumble out a tank you sah. I couldn't believe what had just happened to me. This was the first for me. I had showed random art of kindness countless of times before, but never received it. That single art of kindness change how I saw the average igbo man.

When you live in a society that glorifies sayings like, "if you don't have money hide your face", even pastors will preach that if you're not rich, God is punishing you. People will want to make that money any way imaginable.
Unadulterated truth. It's a shame, really.

I am always pessimistic about anything concerning Nigeria.. This would definitely fail as everything in this country continues to fail. Is it the same Nigeria where almost all her citizens are criminals that can manage it well or another? Which Nigerian is honest sef? Pfft

Thanks for the link, Chimamanda is a Queen kiss

Read this before, reading it again now.

I was just wondering if that's all, calliope said she is on page 27, so I think may have added more to it.
It is not a big book but more of a pamphlet with over 52pages due to it smallish size.

You should.

As regard the bolded. I don't know what you mean cos for me, my mum and even my sisters didn't take any crap from anybody. You care to elucidate on it, please?
Just read the book you'd understand the perspective I am coming from.

A feminist manifesto? Is the book really about feminism?
Basically its about deconstucting gender roles, and equality, so yes its about feminism. Interesting piece i tell you.

Its a book i wish i could send to every woman who is raising a daughter in nigeria today. So she wont take alot of the crap our mothers and foremothers took, and also to every woman raising a son because we should all be feminist really. wink
