I'm helping my cousin's daughter who just finished NYSC apply to a few Eramus Mundus scholarships. If you're a young girlie trying to find your way out of Nigeria but don't have the means, please look them up. They often cover tuition and living costs. Get your IELTS ready.

Some pundits will watch Arsenal play and spend the next 24 hours looking for reasons to discredit what they've seen. Then there's Steven Gerrard, who actually watches football, understands the game and gives credit where it's due. Massive respect

you meet the right person.
I wouldn't have gotten married if I hadn't. I wouldn't encourage anyone else to.
A bad relationship is so much lonelier than singleness.

On the 16/10/2026 I had an accident at the chevron, traffic light at about 1am-3am. When the accident happened I was unconscious and sadly the responders came and robbed me of everything I had on me, my phone, wrist watch, wallet, cross pendant chain, ring, slides -

The way a good number of women romanticise the idea of meeting a complete stranger and marrying them within 3–6 months in the name of “men know what they want” will never sit well with me.
Not to be that person, but it’s strange. And the even crazier part is how much agency you’re willing to surrender in this whole narrative. Any random stranger can walk into your life, decide he wants to marry you within six months, and you interpret that as some grand validation of your worth. “He saw my worth, that’s why he married me so quickly.”
As opposed to questioning how strange it is that you’re willing to let someone you barely know make a lifelong commitment with you. Why is his willingness to marry you so quickly the ultimate measure of your worth? Where does your own judgment, discernment and decision-making come into all of this? Do you even like the person beyond the excitement of being chosen? So many questions, very few answers, but yeah…..it is what it is.

What a bizarre thing to say. If you are not happy in your marriage, then you should simply divorce. You should not break vows that you made decades ago, setting an example for your children, no matter how old they may be. This used to be considered a matter of honor and character
As someone who ended up with a non-Nigerian, the key to always having something to gist about is having common interests which is easier when you're from the same generation (he's 3 years younger). We can discuss everything from Arteta's tactics, to US politics, to WWII.
Marriage is not something I can do with a non Nigerian.
Marriage is tooooooooo eternal for me to do it with someone I will spend 10 years adapting to or will give up some parts of my culture for
The gist has to be steady for marriage to be interesting for me. If I lack things to gist with you I will clock out of the entire relationship
And what gists will I gist with someone that spent their first 25 years in Oregon?
When I can be gisting random with a Nigerian babe and we will end seeing that we know a mutual from secondary school, from different states and we met during Milo soccer competition
We can have random gists about Styl Plus and Paul Play. We can talk about Nigerian politics from way back. We can talk about so many things that both of us can relate to.
Gisting is too important for me in relationships. It's too important. And way back gists are Soul striking
More importantly I don't have to adjust my taste buds. Black Tax also is a community responsibility for me, many cultures frown at it and I cannot stop that.

She’s brilliantly well-chosen. Not so young and hot that Jensen Huang might get suspicious, but sufficiently pretty and slim to turn his head. Probably very cultured, clever, and amusing; dresses well, etc
Chapeau, Chinese intel
I cut off one of my aunties last year. Another one, I just cut off communication with yesterday. Women from these generations are slaves to societal pressures. They will lead you to hell.
This might be a controversial take but as a Nigerian women who wants to have a long and healthy marriage, I don't take relationship advise from older millenial, Gen X or boomer naija women (1946 - 1988) regardless of how close we are. They really love their patriarchal chains.

Why are we so lacking in boundaries as Nigerians? You follow someone on social media because you have decided that they are your God-sent helper and bombard them with DMs asking for money. I helped out once and since then you keep stressing me? WTH?!!!

People will project their fears and insecurities on you under the guise of being concerned. Miss me with that nonsense.
Even the women who are financially independent are choosing men because it's just the next step in life when you've graduated and have a good job. People pick the some guy who's ready and available without vetting properly for the right qualities a life partner should have.
I actually need women to sit themselves down, do a deep and honest introspection and ask themselves why they want to get married.
If your reasons don’t carry weight, please, abort mission because why exactly are you getting married because of food??
Why are you getting married so you can be catered for?
Marriage is a whole lot. It’s a lifetime commitment that comes with lots of sacrifices. Even good marriages can overwhelm you.
If your reason for getting married is tied to a man providing for you, I swear you’ll suffer because you’re not mentally prepared for what awaits you. It’s a lifetime commitment especially if children are involved.
If it’s money you want, go and hustle!
