The lady that makes my hair told me an interesting story yesterday. She said when she relocated to this town, she could only afford accommodation in a shanty. A few blocks from where they lived was also the house of a rich man, who lived abroad, although he visited home a couple of times yearly. […]
Continue ReadingThis was an experience that a man narrated to me, recently: How does a woman wake up one morning to put a marriage of over 14 years behind her? Because that was exactly what happened!

Continue ReadingA voice note made the rounds on social media recently. It allegedly belonged to a married politician. The interesting thing about the voice note is the contents. It was a conversation that a man in love thought he was having with a beloved, unknown to him he was being recorded. When things went awry in […]
Continue ReadingI caught up with a relation recently. It was a disturbed man that I was talking to all through our time together. He’s been having issues with his wife. He attributes the sudden change in her attitude to the rich brother (overseas) whose word is LAW in his household. He said that nothing he brings […]
Continue ReadingOne ugly reality constantly being seen is men who run with their excesses, often to the detriment of all they should hold dear. A major monster that is tormenting today’s marriages is the avalanche of unwholesome views all over the social media, which are finding their way to the hearts of married women. The attitude […]
Continue ReadingWhen an unpleasant marital issue trends, opinions on marriage, especially in social media, begin to fly. Currently, women are being advised to not love, lift fingers or struggle with a man, lest she ends up used. Where such a mindset perpetuates, is that still a marriage? Would you be okay to receive the same energy […]
Continue ReadingI am tempted to conclude that it’s another spirit that enters most Igbo men when this ‘male child’ sentiment is pushing them. A man could have a home filled with wonderful daughters who adore him and he won’t ‘see’ them, yet in old age, it’s these daughters that would be losing sleep over his welfare. […]
Continue ReadingIn the message that a lady sent to me recently, she said, “My last baby was a girl, like the rest. I would later hear that when my father went to see my husband, who refused to visit the baby and I at the clinic, he cried his eyes out. Over what? We had a […]
Continue ReadingIn sharing his experience with me, he wrote, “My mother died over seven years ago but what died with her was my marriage of 12 years. My ex-wife is from a rich family and she never failed to make the class disparity between her and my people obvious. She carried on as if the presence […]
Continue ReadingThis issue involved a couple. The wife couldn’t place the husband’s sudden resentment towards her. But when I communicated with the man, I understood what he was grappling with. According to him, they lived in the same town with his mother but the wife has never for one day visited the mum on her own. […]
Continue ReadingIn sharing her experience with me, a young lady wrote, ‘’I remember a conversation that I had with an elderly man sometime back. I complained that it is becoming increasingly challenging for a young lady to get what she wants in this environment with legs closed. “Someone would always demand a ‘’thank you’’ in kind-even […]
Continue ReadingI told you that I have cut a long story short, right? One of the things that I didn’t point out is the HARD life of an average single mother. There are different days in the life of a single mother but they are unlike your normal days of the week. There are days of […]
Continue ReadingI’m starting this discourse with an experience that a lady shared with me recently. Read her, “I was a university undergraduate when we met. He was incredibly funny and handsome. He was on his way to becoming a lawyer. And was on one of those their ‘’attachments’’ in the city. I felt he was someone […]
Continue ReadingI didn’t know how much of my self-worth went down the drain, until much later. Do you know that I would often go to occasions and find ways to “pack” food that we would eat that day and the next? “I shudder now remembering how people used to look at me then. To cut the […]
Continue ReadingI am sharing the experience of a lady that wrote to me recently to encourage that person who’s probably wondering where God is in their circumstances. ‘’My mother would look at me and say “…but people always say you would be the light of the family. When will that happen?” “However, I must admit that […]
Continue ReadingShe has just been notified that her husband was murdered about two weeks back. And that she (and the children) should come home to mourn him. Her response to all that was said to her remains “Mourn him for what?” According to her, their last child doesn’t even know the father. He left them when […]
Continue ReadingI have been praying that the next update I would receive about the incident will be one in which the perpetrator is in handcuffs, already! It’s about the young boy that has what’s claimed to be razor cuts on his body. He was bleeding profusely from various parts of his body and it was his […]
Continue ReadingHere’s my response to last week’s message. In every phase of life, we must find the courage to confront an inevitable end when it happens. Believe it or not, what is happening with your girl is one of such ends. It simply means that her journey under your watch will never be the same again. […]
Continue ReadingIn narrating her experience with a domestic help to me, a lady wrote, “She started living with my family as a young girl. I have two kids and she was there when they were all born. In fact, when I had a miscarriage with my first pregnancy, she was there. “My husband and I took […]
