Never Settle for Less

Do you know there are some men that don't flush after using the convenience!

Whether solid or liquid

They don't flush

I never knew until recently

I couldn't fathom the very idea that someone, an adult not a child, will use the toilet and stand up, or walk away without flushing

Imagine a husband like that

His wife will be faced with his shitty business every single day

In fact some women are now used to it, it's normal to them

They have been domesticated to the level of being lower than goats

Feed the woman grass on the altar of patriarchy and she will eat it with stew just to be tagged virtuous

Should we tell them?

Aunty, it's not normal

The fact that you do it regularly for uncle doesn't make it normal

It is disgusting and filthy

How in God's name can someone marry such a person, because I am sure you noticed this diabolical habit while you were dating

A woman was sick and tired of flushing her husband's shit, so she reported to her mum

Her mother told her to endure and flush it..."What's your work as his wife, the evil mother said. I did worse for your father and I didn't complain..."

"I used to clean his vomit every night he came home drunk, with you and your brothers asleep, I will bathe him while he slaps and spits on me."

"You are a dutiful wife so flush his feces and cover your nose, the mum advised."

So she endured until one day, she traveled for the weekend, came back Monday morning and found 2 days old shit with...I can't even type it...apparently, the animal pooed and didn't, couldn't flush, so he left it and was using his friend's restroom.

Get this...he was flushing there!

When she came back and found it, she reported to her mother-in-law, the mother-in-law said her son has always been like that from childhood, and if she can't cope then she lacks good home training.

That night, her husband slapped her and refused to eat her food or touch her for the next two weeks because she reported him to his mum.

She went to her mum again..."Oh, so na only slap he slap you, you should be grateful, what if he used a belt to flog you or beat you. Your husband is a nice man, just thank God because I didn't teach you to be disrespectful so go back and apologize to your husband."

The marriage institution is inarguably the biggest producers of sad and bitter couples... Chief amongst them is the women.

Wives are the most unhappy people in the world today.

The man can always leave and go out to find solace

He can leave and come back with another woman

But the woman, she isn't even allowed to leave to find peace, except when she is kicked out by the man to shit and piss

Or she leaves half-dead, physically or emotionally

In all cases, she leaves

The man never leaves, it's his house, his home, his fight, he's the indabosky!

But yet, it's the woman that is always in a hurry to go into this same institution

One she spends her prime always on her knees, not blowing steam, but blasting in tongues with a black eye or bruised skin

We know she and her partner observe social distance even in bed

But act like all is well

Yet, once she enters this same institution, she starts harassing her fellow women who are yet to enter with questions like...

When are you settling down?

Won't you settle down?

You are getting old ooo?

Etc

See all these ramblings???

Never allow them to get to you!

Never allow yourself to be put under pressure to settle down!

In haste to settle down, don't spend the rest of your life settling matter.

Just don’t.

It's that simple!!!

You will never settle down because you are always gonna set up smart!!!

It's not a crime to set up smart and set healthy standards as a woman

Let the men measure up!!!

It's better to find heaven at 40 than discover hell at 25

When next you are asked when you are settling down

Tell them Queens don't settle down cheap like their kinds desperately do, they set up!!!

I am not afraid of the storm Facing it alone isn't something I would lose sleep over But I want to conquer with you Set anarchy to never after Bring liberty to forever more Alone we are survivors, caging the fiercest waves Swimming the deepest seas But, hand in hand we would drown the ocean You and I, we would drink the rivers dry And spit out islands Kingdavid Chinaeke Ofunne Authorpreneur

Solomon's Lair!

Rated 18 Solomon's lair  I almost refused to go for the birthday party this year. Solomon always hosted a party every year, and as usual, I always gave the opening speech and acted as the MC too. I hated the drama and fake smiles all around. Each year, new faces present, old faces absent. New Friends present, Old friends lost, only me stagnant. I was always present as the best friend, the loyal soldier, meanwhile I was notoriously known for not celebrating my own birthday. It was so bad that most of my friends didn't even know my date of birth, just my age. Yes, it was that bad! It was an exhausting exercise for me. The cake and speeches, by God I hated the hypocrisy. So this year I swore to him by the old gods and new, that I wasn't gonna be in the spotlight of his special day. I just wanted to drink and chill quietly in solitude. Surprisingly, without any fuss, he obliged me. ''Obi is now a man o'' I smiled. ...

Riotous Love

I have always found Tony, my boyfriend, fascinating His write-ups and rants about bad governance and patriarchy got me wet and awestruck every single time I visited his timeline  Whenever he wrote a piece on Facebook and Twitter, he got thousands of likes and comments I always read every comment, especially from women who were mesmerized by his writing prowess I was once part of such women until I decided to shoot my shot, and, like cupid, I hit him straight in the heart A simple "Hello, I've read and enjoyed all your stories, maybe you could write ours someday, hope I'm not overreaching?" I had to drink almost a full bottle of bailey's to find courage for that stunt, and today, we are celebrating 8 months of the best love story ever. He was my Mr. Perfect, everything I could ever ask for and more It wasn't surprising when he asked me to join him and go for the peaceful protest here in Lagos, and like a love-struck puppy, quickly I jumped up and said yes That ...
