A GAME OF OPTIONS

Hey young lady... why are you walking down alone, let me give you a ride home. At first i ignored and i replied, i can take care of myself. thanks. The voice was persistent, just hop in its too dangerous for you to be walking alone at this time of the day. On a second thought i decided to let him give me a ride, it wasn't such a bad idea after all.  He asked me where i was headed, i told him and then, he asked why i was out this late. It was a long story of not connecting with your date, he laughed; then he started his own story of how he decided to be true to this girl and it turned out the girl was cheating on him. i could hear the sadness in his voice. the turned it was his time to get fucked. like he said everyone must get fucked up one day. We shared a blunt together and discussed how terrific it is to put your hope in someone.Girls or Guys ; we all get hurt but that doesn't mean that we are going to stop swimming because its a game of options. You can always find someone better, at least that's what we think.  We never spoke again after that day, perhaps because he asked me to call him and i never did.

Patrice ! Ade is sick o ! He’s having cough. Are you serious! replied another voice. Ade ! don’t touch me ! I said don’t touch me pls ! The sound mixed with fear and anger could not let me concentrate on writing the essay I needed for my summer internship.      On the morning of that same day, the 20th of March 2020, we were mandated to attend  the orientation of Coronavirus organized by village du Benin Togo. And also one must wash his hands with the provided soap and water in the school compound  before you can be allowed in class. The orientation was held in the hall with not more than 100 students per barge. The first barge ended with the installation of fear and extra carefulness in us and we washed our hands according to what we were taught in the hall by the school nurse before we left the school environment.       I was still on the summer internship application when news was brought to us that school has shutdown till further notice...

PEDOPHILIES : A MAN BUTCHERED FOR ABUSING A 10 YEARS OLD GIRL ; Caught in the act

PEDOPHILIES : A MAN BUTCHERED FOR ABUSING A 10 YEARS OLD GIRL ; Caught in the act                                                  Whenever this little girl comes back from school, this man will call her to a lonely place close to her house to abuse her. This went on for a very long time without anyone finding out what this little girl has been going through. The man went on with this disgusting act with this little girl without thinking about the future damages he is doing to this little girl.                          On the day he decided to change there regular place to an uncompleted building, he was caught by the girl's father and other neighbours. Also rumor has it that the girl is not his only victim and so I ask; how many girls in this country are facing child abuse, how many of them ar...

It's either from the preachers or the students struggling for water or the prayers from the mosque ,  all these has become part of being a being a UNN student. scarcity of water, lack  of provision of light, lack of healthy classrooms and environment. Studying in University of Nigeria Nsuuka should be a privilege but I don't know if I'm allowed to say otherwise                                       On  30th August 2019, I woke up with a splitting headache and the sharp noise of students searching for where to fetch water. that was when I realised that I will soon join the queue because I had ...
