“CLOSE GINI?” | CHRONICLES OF AN ABUJA ROAD USER #2
Have you recently heard that local slang which says, ‘I can’t come and kill myself’? I’m sure you have and that phrase is a perfect definition of my experience In Chronicles of an Abuja road user today. It’s one of those days that makes me think of going into 40 days dry fasting or just ‘gathering liver’ and visiting one ‘babalawo’ to give me the mumu button of one senator just so I can have a car of my own. While you’re laughing at my fantasies, just hear my story then judge for yourself too. Lol….. On this faithful day, I was in high spirits as I locked…

My Eclipsed Scars & How I Found Christ – Part 2
Three months after we had settled in our new home, a 3-bedroom apartment, we joined the closest Catholic Church and everything began to follow the usual routine again. Mum joined the C.W.O of that parish, my elder brothers joined the Rosary Brigade Guide & an O’ War while I joined the Block Rosary Crusade in preparation to receive the First Holy Communion. How I looked forward to that day. I dreamt about it a lot – walking down the aisle in my white dress, my palms held together in front of me as i knelt in front the Priest (giggles…). Every Catholic child always looked forward to that titillating experience. I don’t…

Monster Love – Part 1
By: Handsome Okwu In his embrace was comfort and protection. I have known him since I came forth, when my mind was plain and without intention. He was my hero and the very first word my mouth could echo. Five was the year he explained how much he loved me. A demonstration of his undying love was a kiss, a gentle touch as I stood there confused of my emotions. “Tell no one how much daddy loves you or else he would stop loving you.” These were his words that turned me a fool. 15 was the year Mama traveled for three months on church mission. My lover came to…
