Hello,

Did you know that about 1.7 million people in Nigeria are suffering from schizophrenia? A severe psychiatric
disorder with symptoms of emotional
instability, detachment from reality,
and withdrawal into the self. 


The disease which can emerge at any time in life affects about one percent of the world's total population, of which fifty
percent don't have access to treatment
and thirty percent of these people are
in developing countries such as Nigeria.


My name is Ifeoma Ndidi and I am a script writer. I have recently written a short film that will help create awareness about schizophrenia in Nigeria. 


I do believe that the movie if properly produced and marketed will show people why it is important to pay attention to mental illness in Nigeria.


I currently do not have any funding for the movie and that is why I am posting this. I will appreciate it if you or anyone you know can help invest/finance this movie in any way. I will be anticipating your reply. Thank you

I’m curious, is anyone reading this right now sacred of having a child immediately after tying the knot? This has now become a topic among many single ladies and even a common practice among newly weds.

Why should you be afraid though? My apologies for bringing religion into this for those that do not share my faith, but isn’t children a gift from God?

I was having a conversation with a sister of mine just this morning when the topic came up. i was shocked when she revealed her plans to wait a couple of years before bearing kids, on the basis that kids are expensive and she went on to list the various expenses having a child will incur.

If i say she doesn’t have a point in all she said, i would be lying. however, i do not feel a child is one of those things to put off until you hit it big, because you will be waiting for a long time. If you don’t incur those expenses now, you will definitely incur them in the future, so why are you waiting?

Let’s face facts, money is never enough, even the likes of Bill Gates and Aliko Dangote are still looking for new ways they can double or even triple their earnings.

The best you can do in these situations is to bare the number of children you can afford to take care of and watch every other thing fall into place. Except of course there’s some other reason you’re putting off bearing children?

Nonetheless, this is my opinion, and it doesn’t stop you from taking your personal decision. At the end of the day “to each his own.”

Fashion has always been in Nigerian long before westernization came and amplified it. In Nigeria, fashion gained grounds due to the many expression of different cultures, ethnic groups, and religions. Like the western fashion industries, the Nigerian fashion industry also has several influences, structures and more participation than there usually was.

A good number of Nigerian youths now venture into different forms of fashion like never before. Some work as clothing designers, some, clothing stylists, some models, some, makeup artists, some, hair stylists, cosmetologists and some fashion photographers. Some even go ahead to find a career path as fashion journalists.

Most fashion professionals have their websites and social media platforms dedicated to fashion, while Nigeria's New Fashion Week has become the trend in major cities in Nigeria, attended by fashion influencers, enthusiasts and headliners. We can attribute these to the influence of the western world. However, the days when the western fashion was the only thing we emulated are gradually fading.

Today, Nigerians have created a niche for themselves, sewing natives with an uncompromising creativity. The fashion trend has now become so unique through her color play on pattern and style of sewing. What makes it more fabulous is their ability to blend both western and African style in their fashion, for wearable and everyday style.

About a century ago, Nigerians wore their traditional garb all the time. Now, it is being worn for special occasions like weddings, work on Friday, religious gathers ‘Church or Mosque’, and so on. Local fabric such as Ankara fabric a 100% cotton filled with vibrant patterns and African motifs is also called Dutch wax or Holland wax, African prints or African wax prints. It is good to know that it is not only internationally recognized but also internationally accepted.

It should not surprise you that until now, some still assume Africans only wear traditional garb or using clothing solely functionally (to cover the body and protect it from environmental factors) due to the fact that in many African countries, clothes have historically been decorative and scarring, painting, tattooing, or jewelry.

Back in those days, traditional clothing signifies which ethnic group one belongs to, and can indicate one's gender, class, religion, and region. For instance, city and rural dwellers in Nigeria can easily distinguish Eastern Nigerian ways of dressing from Northern Nigerian or Western Nigerian ways. This is because the different lifestyles call for different clothing styles.

Fashion in Today’s Nigeria has changed everything. An Igbo man today wears agbada, a well known Yoruba attire, to ceremonies. Even our politicians wear clothes belonging to different culture, to pass across the message that we are one Nigeria. People care less of dressing according to their culture. You can hardly know people’s ethnic group unless you move close to them to ask or to detect from their accent.

Nigerian magazines such as Flair West Africa (formerly called True Love Magazine), Genevieve, TW and Arise, and websites such as Stylehousefiles.com, Bellanaija.com, Ladybrille.com, Fashionafrica.com, Shopliquorice..com, among many, showcase and promote Today’s Nigerian fashion.

One of the good that Fashion in Today’s Nigeria has done to the country is improving the Nigerian economy by creating jobs and opportunities, and producing female entrepreneurs, which was scarce for years. Of course, Fashion in Today’s Nigeria is not without its challenges; however this will require another full article considering its importance and length.

I am sure this article has gone a long way to opening your eyes and adding to your knowledge on how the fashion industry got to the point where it is. And for startups, I hope it has been of great help thus far. Do drop your comment right below in the comment box, and feel free to ask questions if you have any, and will attend to it as soon as possible.
