ALGORITHM

  “ You can’t write this exam, not even the Vice Chancellor can intervene.” The words hit me like lightning, each syllable carrying the weight of a reality I wasn’t ready to accept. I stood there in front of the exam official, my hands trembling, my voice breaking as I tried to explain . “Sir, please, I just need a little time. I will pay, I promise. Just let me write the paper.” But my pleas fell on deaf ears. His expression remained static, cold, unmoved. The rules were the rules, and I was on the wrong side of them. I had gotten to the exam hall hours before, hoping that maybe, just maybe, the examiner would show me mercy. I had worked too hard for this day. From the moment I secured admission into one of Nigeria’s most prestigious faculties, the faculty of Law, I had devoted myself entirely to my studies. I could already see my future, wearing the black robe, standing tall in a courtroom, advocating for justice. Was I going to be denied this reality? Everything seemed to be s...

IDENTITY

 Out of the amazing gifts my husband and I got for our wedding, we received this beautiful air fryer. We never really had one so we watched YouTube videos about the product and how to use it as well as following through the manual. Yeah it really helped. Being married to a man that loves fried yam, that was the first delicacy we tried with the air fryer. It worked!! Do you agree with me that the only thing that falls from the sky is rain and snow? No human or product  fell from the sky, they are all carefully designed by the producer.  When the purpose of a thing isn’t known, abuse is definitely inevitable. You are not an exception. Have you ever noticed? At certain points of our lives, it gets confusing. You suddenly do not know what to do with your life, and the pressure gets worse when we see our peers thriving but here we are completely lost. I’d like to congratulate you because God has given me a solution for you. In the book of Jeremiah, God told Him, before I forme...

How I Started My Career as a Digital Media Manager

Do you feel lost? I mean you feel like your life isn’t taking shape, there are some things you should be doing but the future doesn’t seem bright at all?  You feel like you should be doing more but everything just looks scattered and you can’t figure it out.  Please continue reading, I’d love to share my story with you. Although I am not there yet, I am sure your read will be worth it.  Please permit me to share my story of how I kickstarted my career. A journey of multiple tears, anxiety, but I pulled through and I am still pulling through. I say so because as I scale higher, the journey gets tougher but indeed fulfilling. To whom much is given, much is definitely expected and so, I am comforted each time I face turbulent times on this journey of growth, impact and success.   I graduated from the University of Ilorin at age 20, and had my convocation at age 21 after which I immediately went to serve.  Before I left school, I had the usual anxiety that come...

MY SALVATION STORY; THE FIRST YES I EVER SAID

  MY SALVATION STORY; THE FIRST YES I EVER SAID  While I share with you the first yes I ever said, I look forward to sharing with you the second yes, how it happened and all. But I must emphasise that the second yes to my fiance was possible because I first said Yes to Jesus. Indeed, Deep calleth unto deep. We all have that birthing moment into Christ and what I am about to do here is share the relatable moments with you and really what you are missing if your relationship with the Trinity is Inconsistent. Sometimes in 2016, when I started to discover that tingling affectionate feeling towards the opposite sex, Jesus called me directly (I mean, it wasn’t an altar call, He called me Himself) and said He wanted to be my first love, but I wasn’t ready to love someone I couldn’t see, touch, or feel. Coming from a Christian background, I just wanted to continue my daily devotion  and the usual Church services.  As time went on, I lost my peace and a sudden desire for Jesu...

BEFORE YOU COLLECT THE RING

JUST BEFORE YOU COLLECT THE RING!   “We broke up” Helen’s face fell as she painfully let those three words out. I pulled her closely and hugged her. Should I console or congratulate her? What a dilemma! I will console her, then congratulate her later on, I decided.  Let’s not even lie, that relationship seemed toxic. I will console her because letting go of her four years (which also translates to 1,460 days) relationship was no joke and indeed a hard thing to overcome. But with the knowledge of why they broke up, I really wanted to congratulate my friend.  Helen and I had been childhood friends who got lucky enough to have gained admission together into the higher institution. She got her dream course which was Biochemistry, while I wanted to study law, but got Mass Communication. Well I didn’t mind. It was a great turnaround for me in the end.  Before we gained admission, we had an agreement not to have boyfriends for the first three years of our lives at the ...
