illicit: My first time and still only time at/in a morgue... I was out of state. My mum passed away. This was during covid 19. But she succumbed to diabetes. At 66. In a federal medical hospital. They also have a morgue. So she was transferred there.
I have heard a lot about morgue visits. When I lost a brother. My sister told me that the morgue at UCH Ibadan was a very scary place to be. She was maybe 15 and I was maybe 12 then and she was at the morgue with the wife to identify his corpse. She described a morgue in really incredible strange terms. I knew that people exaggerate.
They often want to make you think that a morgue is a spiritual or gothic place, that the dead people are still somehow alive but naked and cold.
Some will even tell you that they go out and come back. Se will even say they sneeze, they eat, they copulate. They hold meetings...
Why are they dead if they can still do things that a living person does?
So I was mentally prepared when it was my turn to see a morgue in and out.
My uncle was there, my brother was there, 2 of my sister's were there except a 6 months pregnant one ( they believe that a spirit can enter her in the morgue) so we left her behind.
At the morgue, inside. I have decided not to let my gaze wonder too far.
When they entered the room or I don't know what it's called. I decided to stay at the entrance because they had to wheel her out for proper identification. I was the only one yet to see her corpse. She died the previous day.
She looked like she was sleeping. I don't know if any man can see their parent in such state and not cry. The tears came without my permission or awareness, I was crying before I realized that I was crying then I felt a hand on my shoulder. It was just my uncle. I had never cried so hard since I was an adult that someone had to console me. When I lost my very handsome dad as a child, he was just 50 but I have always thought that he was the oldest man, I didn't know if I was to cry or try to be a young man.
Now I know better. I didn't remember anything about spirits I just kept remembering that till I matured. There's no time my mum slept outside unless she travelled. Here she was in this cold place since yesterday among strangers...
There was once corpse behind the entrance, the only one the corner of my eye caught.
I didn't want to stare at it because I won't forget about it. I don't know how to describe this corpse, obviously it didn't die of natural causes. It was bloated and greenish...
There was one worker at morgue. A middle aged man. He also knew my mum at the ward when she was alive. So I learnt or made to believe. He followed us to the burial. But this man was an extremely quiet person...
He sat away from the crowd. Won't drink alcohol. Ate enough. I don't know if it was customary for morticians to attend the funeral.
Sometimes I wonder if he wasn't a ghost. But I don't believe in ghosts.
Nothing special, it's as quite as when you are in the library
Lumig: Good to hear... As I don't expect a perfect election (it doesn't happen anywhere in the world) I must commend INEC for a job well done. INEC getting better

Botragelad: Isn't it awesome that Israel had prior knowledge of this facility and others for a long time, yet refrained from destroying it. Instead, waited for Iran to behave erratically, which is precisely what Iran the loudmouth did, playing right into Israel's hands. The truth is, Iran's secret facility wasn't as secretive as they presumed. Lol
Do you folks remember how Iran and its supporters, especially the keyboard warriors here denied that Israel had successfully dealt a strategic and crippling blow to some key Iranian facilities? Israel demonstrated its capability by dominating Iranian airspace for hours, effectively destroying their air defence systems and leaving Iran in a state of confusion.
Now, if a nation thousand of miles away is aware of your "secret" nuclear facility and can easily dismantle it, that's a grave concern. Am yisreal chai 🇮🇱!
More reason Russia don't want Ukraine as part of NATO cos it will be so easy to spy on them. Any misunderstanding in the near future, they already know where to attack
Undilutedme: Hello, Nairalanders. Good morning, I’m going to be short.
I stay in Ondo and I just finished my youth service and currently, I’m staying with long time friend(We’re splitting the rent) till we are able to find our way. Something happened last week Friday that has brought a little misunderstanding (We don’t flow like before) and I want your opinion.
Okay, so I went to my work, I work from 8-5, sometimes 6 and that day, my girlfriend called me and said she was around the house and wanted to wait and see me, I told her it was fine that I would be back soon. I went back later to the house and I met her, my friend wasn’t around then. The house was very neat, but I knew she was the one who swept it, so I didn’t ask. But one talk led to another and she told me it was that my friend that told her to get broom and sweep the room. When she said it, I wasn’t so cool with it because I felt he didn’t have that right to tell my girlfriend to sweep the room. Even if she wanted to sleep it, I should be the one to tell her and not my room mate. I told him and he didn’t see anything wrong with it and insisted that I didn’t like it and he shouldn’t do it next time, because I found it a bit disrespectful to myself and my girlfriend. Since then, he hasn’t been so cool, we talk but not like before. Did I overreact? Do you think it’s okay or wrong for my roommate to tell my girlfriend to sweep the room?
NB; I do not tell my girlfriend to sweep the room when my roommate is around, so it doesn’t bring “see finish “ so, she’s never swept in his presence before, but she does it when he’s not around.
Also, he has his girlfriend that comes to the house too and I have never told her to do anything like that before. So, what do you guys think?
You are insecure
Your gf didn't complain to you, why carry the matter for head like gala
Woman wrapper, she will eventually break your heart.
Let her breathe, she can make decisions on her own
Whytelyon: Trump no be Tinubu. His policies against China made china to sit up. The policies against north and South korea tensions nko? Who do you think held Russia and Ukraine fall out the initial time? Middle eastern crisis? Officially naming Jerusalem Israel's capital ? Who do you think did all these stuff? Who uncovered the nonsense being done in Epstein Island ? Who? His 4 years In office we can tell what he did , unlike Kamala who would laugh and insult Christians at any point possible..
Former undisputed world heavyweight champion Mike Tyson is set to make his first professional boxing fight in almost 20 years, against YouTuber and actor-turned-boxer Jake Paul.
Tyson became the youngest boxer in history to win a major heavyweight title when he was just 20 years old, in 1986. One by one, Tyson won the three major titles of his era (WBA, WBC and IBF), and he also secured a valid claim to the lineage when he stopped Michael Spinks in a single round in June 1988. At that point, Iron Mike was the baddest man on the planet.
To date, Paul has competed in 11 professional fights, winning 10, 7 of which came at the end of the competition. Most of his fights have been against non-professional boxers. In his last fight in July, Paul won by stoppage in the 6th round against Mike Perry, an MMA boxer and also a bare-knuckle boxer. Ironically, that was the date Paul was originally scheduled to face Iron Mike, but that fight was pushed back to November after Tyson suffered an ulcer flare-up on a plane, and medical professionals advised him to do not fight until you have recovered from the episode.
Today 15 November 2024 iron Mike will be fighting his legacy fight, fight for honour against Paul after Jake Paul dramatical insult against him regarding his daughter,Tyson said its not about money but legacy said the 58years old legend

ExAngel007: A man from northern Nigeria has said that only Islamic law can change Nigeria.
The social media user with the handle @sarki_sultan posted:
According to the social media user's bio, he lives in the UK.
This comes amid outrage over President Bola Tinubu attending the Joint Arab-Islamic Summit in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, earlier this week, with Nigerians asking if Nigeria is now an Islamic nation.
It also comes just two weeks after a bill seeking to make Sharia law not just a personal matter in the constitution was rejected in the House of Representatives.
Bamidele Salam, a lawmaker from Osun State, said the bill should be rejected because it has the potential to derail the freedom enjoyed by all religions in Nigeria.
Can any thing good come out of the North? They keep dragging the Country backward
faxana: Artists we expected to be on the nomination list for the 2025 Grammys but weren't. I was quite shocked to not see the names of some artists on this list besides putting out some really great pieces of work within the time period eligible for the Grammys. Why? For some of them we'll never know but here are the artists we thought stood out.
Ariana Grande I've been a fan of Ariana Grande since her Cat Valentine days and since she left Nickelodeon she hasn't failed to serve. Ariana Grande released her Eternal Sunshine album on March 8 2024, though well received, it has failed to bag any nominations for the 2025 Grammys. Fans have speculated that this may be because the album wasn't promoted well enough due to her being busy with the Wicked movie filming.
Tyla Tyla is the media's sweetheart and IT Girl but she failed to bag a nomination despite releasing her Debut self titled album this year. None of the other songs on the album apart from Water has managed to catch the attention of the 2025 Grammys.
Megan Thee Stallion Despite putting out an impressive body of work with great visuals and lyrics that sparked a beef between her and the Queen of rap, Nicki Minaj, it didn't get any nominations this year. I'd say this is because of the Crazy beef one of the songs on her album caused between her and Nicki Minaj. The Grammys know better than to be involved in messy.
Nicki Minaj Speaking of the Queen of Rap, she released her album Pink Friday 2 late last year but it didn't get any nominations at the Grammys. Not so surprising as we all know Nicki’s not really the Grammy's favourite.
Dua Lipa Dua Lipa’s album has been largely forgotten by fans even though it was released in May this year. After Houdini, it failed to garner any traction. But we know that isn't the reason she didn't get a Grammy nomination as we can see other artists in her talent level and below get nominations.
Kpol idols Our focus is on Lisa of Black pink, she has been highly active in 2024, releasing several solo projects that garnered significant attention, though they may not yet have translated into Grammy nominations. In particular, her singles "ROCKSTAR" and "New Woman," released in June and September 2024 respectively, received substantial acclaim. Lisa's performance of these songs at the 2024 MTV Video Music Awards was a standout, showcasing her strong stage presence and dance skills. These singles also achieved notable streaming success, each surpassing 100 million streams on Spotify, which reflects their popularity globally.
