All too soon, the taxi ride came to an end. As I alighted at Area 3, Open University, I knew I had found my City. I was never going to leave. I was home. I looked around with that tremulous half smile still hovering over and around my face. I knew I must have looked …
The lower part of my face was trembling slightly as I did my best to keep a straight face. The taxi headed for Area 3. I looked around and saw a hill across the road and behind, as the taxi moved away on clean, well-demarcated roads. I would find out later that hill was Kukwaba …
I’m starting these notes today as a salute to the Abuja I used to know and love- which, by the way, I still love very much. I remember the first day I came into Abuja. It was a road trip from Lagos, through lokoja, or was it through someplace else? I do not remember too …
It’s been a pretty long minute since I was here 😅 I did mention in my last post how busy I was. My workload only increased during the lockdown. While others were lounging I was working 😪 I’m not really complaining though, always grateful for the gist of writing which allows me to work always …

Yesterday was Sunday. One of the challenges I’ve noticed about this period is keeping up with days of the week. It seems like it’s just, “yesterday, today and tomorrow.” The days seem to have lost their individuality to this scourge!😪 So, yes, it was Sunday, and we had church, in the living room, via livestreaming …
It is a little past 4am in my neck of the woods and I just woke up. This piece was to have been written at the end of the day yesterday but as is usual with me these days, I fell asleep earlier than planned. Amazing to think how tired one gets when there is …
Writing is my work. I write articles, novels, children’s books, biographies, inspiration, short stories, name it. You have a school project that needs a second eye? APA style, Harvard? You need a ghostwriter? Editor? Need advice on Publishing? Need someone to guide you through any aspect of Publishing? Call me. I hope you get the …
One of my goals for 2020 is to go back to school. I mean, real classroom butt down and learn type of situation. I started working on this goal since early last year, against this first quarter of 2020. It’s been one obstacle after the other. But I’m still pushing it. I love the game …
