Allow me to reintroduce myself...I am success



We aspire to whiteness!

Because, historically the color of success has predominantly been white.

Now we see success as white and not black.

That is why our ladies and gentlemen bleach their skin.

Our OAP’S, TV presenters, actors, and teachers try to sound white by force.

We feel fulfilled when we take the blackness away from our kids and drown them in so much whiteness, we fail to find any atom of blackness in their black.

Our youths aim for the white look desperately because we have been brainwashed into thinking white is the color of success.

Black is synonymous with underdevelopment and an uncivilized existence.

Success to us now is America, Europe, Australia even Asia, but never Africa.

This narrative was written a long time ago before we even had a name for this system and a voice to go with it.

But what do you expect, we live in an era where we see God as white, Jesus as white, Angels…white, now, even beauty and privilege too is defined as white.

So when you travel to U.S.A, London, France, Spain, etc, it doesn’t matter what you are doing there, even if you are washing corpses, prostituting or sweeping streets…so long as you are in Europe or traveled across the Atlantic Ocean, you have made it!

Success has a color, and it is not white.

It is color you!!!

You are successful first before the color of your skin

Your race or skin color does not define success for you, you define it for you.

You are a success whether you are black, brown, white or yellow

Success is not a skin color, it is a brand.

You wear success however you define it

Success is not a definition

It is an image

You define success when you wear it

So the best definition of success isn’t how white you look or sound

But how well it fits when you wear it

So the next time you are asked…”Hey, who are you?”

You just look them in the eyes and say….”I am successful”

When you are asked, “How are you doing?”

Reply with… I’m successful and you?

So ladies and gentlemen, allow me to reintroduce myself…My name is Success Kingdavid Chinaeke Ofunne and I am successful.

I hate my Job

Warning: Strong adult content 18+ I hate my job My boss, Miss Patricia, is a tyrant 40+, beautiful angelic face and even more perfect body, with a lovely smile, that she hardly uses, single mom of two beautiful teenage girls, whose pictures are hung everywhere in our offices. While her exterior is sweet and beautiful, her interior is dark and evil. Always barking orders at the rest of us, like children, her voice is so loud you wonder where she has the energy to scream in such a high note all the damn time She is so feared, her car horn is enough to immediately drown whatever noise or laughter is coming from the entire building The popular saying among us, her staff members, is that the fear of Patricia's horn is the beginning of wisdom I spent years searching for a job in the streets of Lagos, begging even, embarrassed by security men and spat at by lousy and saucy receptionists, to quit this one just like that. We die here! I was prepared to eat shit for as long as I could, so I ...

The Law Man

*Longshot* "Aim!" "Fire!" kraaakkkk kaaaaaaaa krrrrrrrr!!! Sounds of gunshots rendered the air as six policemen died, all tied to the drum and shot by their comrades. Six corrupt policemen once again killed on the orders of the new police chief, totalling 600 since Nonso was elected Police chief read the Star Newspaper. The biggest and most popular newspaper agency in the country. Nonso holds the record as the youngest police chief in the history of the Nigerian police force. And the most lethal. He singlehandedly ended the reign of terror by the SARS operatives, totalling disbanding the unit, executing most of them to the dismay and utter disbelief of the local and international community. How can one man weild so much power, and why is the presidency backing him up. But Nonso was not just any man, Nonso was the man you called to clean up a mess and he did it without leaving a trace of stink nor stench. At 35, his resume was a reflection of unsurpassable exploits a...

 Warning..... 18+ You have been warned!!! I looked at the phone in my hand for some minutes as I turned on my bed, planning my next move  The excitement of getting a new phone was eclipsed by what I was about to do So, putting on my latest expensive transparent black gown carelessly on my thin, fit and light skin body, I waltzed out of the bedroom like a woman with a goal and went straight to the house next to mine I knocked twice and listened  In minutes, I heard a voice call out... "Coming..." Then a lazy slap of feet on tiles followed, you could tell from the sound and vibration approaching the door that it was not an ordinary feet but two strong legs hitting the ground with power The door opens in slow motion and an average height, chocolate skin young man just getting past his mid 30's but still looking prime and delicious, zero beards, strong jawline and broad shoulders, sitting on a rather large chest, stood in the doorway, surprised to see a beautiful young lady i...
