"Go and tell the chiefs to report themselves at the palace unfailingly tomorrow morning!" King Adewale yelled, ordering his messenger after dismissing Alani, the royal spy who had just brought a strange terrific message that moved the king's throne. Grave silence filled the palace through the courtrooms as the chiefs heads were casted down at the king's report. They thought they could do it secretly without staining their king's hands but their plans fell through. Every other king before king Adelaja only demanded five percent of their land produce as his annual tributes but Adelaja had only made life difficult for them by first increasing it from five to ten and now thirty five percent since he was inducted. Furious, burning with anger, "How could you all do this behind me? What were you all thinking?" The king shouted "Adelaja will never believe I'm not part of  this rebellion. How can I face him?" "We are prepared for this as...

Hello Guys, I was talking to a bunch of your species recently and they made me understand that they don't want to settle for less, then the question that popped into my mind was, 'Are they the more they want?', 'Are they the best they want?'. I am telling you now so you will know, every matured girls I can point to have grown over the stage of looking at body structure. Body structure in terms of 6 feet tall, round face, beard gang and all that. I am glad that I can say that our ladies have come to the place of realizing that it's not about the structure, it's about the content (the structure is just a bonus) because sooner or later, the structure will degrade and the content will be exposed and that is when you will know what kind of man he is and it could be too late or just in time. So, what do we want? We want a man that values his appearance, you can't be looking like a homeless lout and you want a girl with the brains and brawn. Be what ...

I have never seen a life that was easy. It's all hard, one way or another. I am grateful that I have food in my mouth, clothes on my back and a roof over my head. And I try my best to look to others, to make sure of the same for them. I try to fill my days with good works so my sleep will be peaceful. And so far, I have done some good, done some bad but learnt from it all. I am glad to be 21 today with stories to tell. Happy birthday anniversary in arrears to me. November 27 2017.

Pick up the pieces! It might not be as good as new but it can  be put back and be whole. Life will get you down severally. It will hit you so hard you would begin to wonder maybe you had a past life where you did a lot of wrong things. It will be so unfair to you that you would start asking if it's a crime being you. It's okay to fall, it's okay to fail but it's never okay to stay down and be trampled upon. You need to pick up the pieces and get back up! What will speak louder than your insult is your final result.

Writing has never been a hobby to me, instead it was a lifeline, an outlet, a channel that had helped me to communicate my thoughts to others. I can still remember very well sometimes back, when I was with my ex. I couldn't talk about issues that was affecting me and things he was doing that was unpalatable to me and so being an understanding person, he allowed me to write my fears and channel my anger into notes and he always took his time to reply back and same as my friend-turned-sister, whenever she got on my nerves, all I could do was write it out, I couldn't talk. Since writing is not a hobby, sometimes I find it hard to write for a short period of time. It just feels like there is no inspiration coming especially when I am facing some challenges. If you check my articles, you will see that everything I write has a little dose of personal experience or someone's view. Further into my writing career, I realized that motivation is my forte because all my life, ...
