The 'ER' Mentality




By Ebi Ashidi
We have a very short time left in 2016, so we've also made this a very short read. So don’t say you’ll read later, do it NOW.

It’s almost 2017 - and it’s only natural that we'd look back at the past year and pull out a few lessons from it; understand the places where we fell, why we fell and how we can avoid similar occurrences.

It’s also natural that we'd take into consideration our victories, the breathtaking bliss of that feeling of victory, and to plan out how we can multiply such victories in the coming year.

When burnt with a Lagos tire

BECAUSE OF THE BOY THEY BURNT IN LAGOS


By Someone.


***Saving Mama***
Today, Mama's health condition worsened drastically, and the doctor threatened, despite my tears, to abandon mama and let her die if i don't find a way to fetch her food. You see, the treatment wouldn't work, because she hadn't eaten for days. There is no food at home, no money either. Sometimes, she falls when she stands, and cries like a baby, when the doctor's injections come rushing down her veins. It's painful!

How NiMSA broke my heart

I remember when we first started going, we left our 5-star Hostels in Ido, to leave for an adventure.
Do you see why we chose to school here?


It wasn't easy to leave, as the consultants would like you to learn for 26 hours, 9 days a week.
Bye bye sir...

Nature's Treasures

Have you ever had a day, where everywhere you looked there were treasures shining bright...?

No, I'm not talking about piles of gold or fistfuls of diamonds... I speak of star studded nights, ruby dawns, and sapphire afternoons. I speak of Nature's Treasures...


When you take a walk in the morning, you're greeted by emerald trees...

A Call To The Deep





By Obafemi Faith



A Little lower

A drawing closer

Deeper, deeper... my heart bleeds

The New Normal



Do the killings, and bombings, sound normal? Are they becoming less strange and more ‘usual’? Will you say you have gotten used to the bad news?

You know, I wonder sometimes if bad news is still tagged ‘bad news’ or if it's now one of those things.

Triolet 5: God is King


Triolet 5: God is King

God is King over Israel,
Ruling with justice and mercy;
The people boast, ‘Immanuel,
God is King over Israel…’
In Zion always will He dwell,
Guarding His people jealously—
God is king over Israel,
Ruling with justice and mercy.

The Yoruba Demon




Yoruba Demon love is like peppered dreams. Hot and spicy.... it's nice when it begins - until it starts to hurt you, and your eyes start to water, your throat burns from kisses, and the fire burning in your heart starts to BURN your heart.
