You didn't get the point.
But if a woman divorces and remarries in this generation,she will be castigated.
We make it look like the older women NEVER left their marriages to try again or even remain unmarried
That indeed is a terrible situation. Every woman deserves to find happiness

Dialectics is the teaching which shows how Opposites can be and how they happen to be (how they become) identical,—under what conditions they are identical, becoming transformed into one another,—why the human mind should grasp these opposites not as dead, rigid, but as living, conditional, mobile, becoming transformed into one another.

To the socialist it is not the horrors of war that are the hardest to endure ... but the horrors of the treachery shown by the leaders of present day socialism, the horrors of the collapse of the present-day International.

“Why some people feel more comfortable in the “margin” of society, may simply be that it imparts them more breathing space, shores up their identity, embodies a gateway to self-determination, and confers them a sense of sovereignty, allowing more time for stressless apprehension and thoughtful reflection.

She hasn’t drastically changed in appearance. Maybe that happens in one’s eighties. With her strong personality, no wonder she got married twice. She would be difficult to control especially for a Nigerian man since she was trained by the British.

Above is the famous Onyeka Onwenu investigative reportage of the monumental corruption and wastage of national resources in 1984 during the inglorious Buhari military junta regime era. This was when journalism was journalism not these days of brown envelope journalists like Sam Omatseye, Reuben Abati.

Meanwhile, the same political scenario and trajectory since post independence is still plaguing Nigeria till date. This just confirmed that the nation is under a curse.
the question now na: who cursed us? 😢

Nostalgia feelings - Sunny Ade's girlfriend that year when the following songs were recorded cheesy

"wait for me" and
"you and I go live as one"

She was even fell in love and was married to a Yoruba Muslim, and gave him 2 kids or so at some point. She is a totally detribilized Nigerian.

The favouite cultural dance song in primary school in the 90s was her track inyogogo iyo go inyogogo or sometimes like that.

Another great song of hers is dancing in the sun.

My favourite song of her is one love keep us together. The electric guitar played on that track was fire. If I was to marry an Igbo woman, it would have been an Imo woman because of the Elegant stallion - her nickname. She was my woman crush as a kid. grin

So far, she is the best female musician to ever come out of Nigeria. I can't think of any other that comes close to her. I am sure people born in 1980s and below can relate very well. Let's celebrate her while she is still here with us.
grin no be today ibo women don Dey fall for Yoruba demon grin no wonder the hate from their men is so strong,he was even married to a Yoruba Muslim grin abeg file fun Yoruba cool
