If Brexit was Nigexit...

Trying to keep up with foreign policies and international politics(as I have dreams of being a big international investor soon), I researched into Brexit, considering the different sides to the story, the different schools of thoughts and all what not. I found a lot of interesting opinions but this conversation in the comment section of an article got me the most.


Like seriously, what an analogy. Imagine calling a meeting of everyone you know or doing a press conference or open letter, announcing to them that you are no longer with your spouse and if they want to retain links with you, they must cut ties with them also. Too funny!

On a lighter note though, imagine Brexit was Nigexit. Naija twitter-sphere would have exploded, memes everywhere. What about the blogs? Aunty Linda would probably make enough money to buy another mansion, this time in Wuse 2. Aunty Bella with all her informed 'commenters' would  have a filled day too, the comments will never end. Zikoko would have done so many series on the twitter reactions. At some point, we would have been so engrossed in the fun that we would have forgotten the gravity of the situation.

Jokes apart though, let us not stop praying for Nigeria. The avengers are not smiling and so many things are going wrong but Nigeria is our home and it must stand, safe and secure.

In the Naija spirit, if Brexit was Nigexit, how do you think Naija social media would respond?

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-...
