Help, save us from Northwest!

The first time UncleBae saw Northwest filling station, he commented that a filling station sharing name with Kimye's first child can hardly mean any good.

Turns out he was right. the filling station has become an addendum to an already bad situation. Usually, when you escape ajah traffic and drive to Ilaje, you breathe a sign of relief. Not any-more. Now, VGC is where the traffic is. Endless fuel queues traceable to Northwest are messing up the road. Sunday was a complete shut down, with people grounded for hours on the road. It's no better this early Monday morning too. As at 5:20, there was already traffic all the way to VGC, cest tres terrible.

Ajahrians are calling on LASTMA and everyone who can help, please save us from Northwest oo. Of course, we are side-eyeing Kachikwu too, oga do something biko, this fuel scarcity has gone on for too long.

As it is now, you have even more reason to pray before leaving home, that our leaders will find a way to make life easier for us and that the gods of traffic will respect the anointing you carry. If you don't carry any anointing nko, I don't know for you o.

Traffic or not, fuel queues or not, its a new day and a new week, let's make it count! And yes, happy April!

Epic Traffic Sunday for Ajah Residents

Anyone who lives around Ajah can testify to how difficult it was to get anywhere on Sunday. Many commuters who left home with plans to go to church turned back midway when it was clear they were going to get nowhere. The ones who attempted to brave it or were in too deep to make a U-turn ended up conducting their worship service in their cars. To think Sundays are meant to be traffic-free days kwa?! My hair stylist could hardly walk properly when I saw her later in the evening. According to her, she left Badore at after 9 in the morning and didn't get to VGC till well after 11. Naija tweet-sphere, especially  +GIDITRAFFIC  was rid with complaints and lamentations. The discomfort was heightened by the fuel situation. Hard earned fuel wasted in traffic on a Sunday morning. Yes, Ajah traffic has always been bad, but now its even worse, it is now a prayer point. For those of you residing in less problematic areas, say a prayer for us or dash us your gallon of petrol.

WHAT NO ONE TELLS THE BRIDE

You know how politicians and politically aware people eagerly await a new government’s 100 days in office? Publications highlighting the government’s achievements in the time frame, bearing assurances and fresh promises to silence wailing wailers flood the media. 100 days in office is usually a big deal. Since my husband is so into politics and so not into anniversaries, I decided to ignore our 3 months month-niversary and celebrate 100 days in marriage instead. Well, it didn’t quite work. And that’s perhaps where I should start. There are several things the bride does not hear before she becomes a wife. Many she is outrightly not told, others she is too happy or too busy to understand. Then she gets married and after the long awaited event, her ‘eyes clear’.  Sometimes, the giddy feeling lasts till the honeymoon is over, but when she returns home with her husband, reality hits. Even when the new wife has the most understanding husband and uninterested far-away in-...
