Open letter to the "ASSERTIVE" geng

 

How hard is it to allow people to choose their poisons? (Photo credit: Google)

Most times, people underrate the value of quality friendships and often blow up bridges until they need to use it again; people don’t mind burning ladder sticks when they’re cold and then make it seem as if the world is against them when they need to ascend, you too see.

The most common conversation on social media today is that of people that will tell you they’re canceling you if you’re not voting their own candidate at the coming elections, what happens to allowing people to make their choices out of free will?

I actually have no motivational talks for anyone today and I’ll align with Dr. Dipo’s post that I saw yesterday; if you want to cancel all your friends because they’re not interested in voting your political candidate, please go ahead and do so.

If you feel your employer is stupid to follow a certain candidate you don’t like, fire your boss today! Sheybi your conscience is king, send out your CV to potential employers that will vote your candidate and trust me, you’ll be happy… Right?

E remain one, if you’re married and your wife won’t vote your preferred candidate, do you have a solid divorce lawyer? Or you’re a young girl and your boyfriend doesn’t want to get sense and vote your candidate, break up with him danu danu… Nonsense.

Same people that will ask you to allow them make their own decisions are the same people acting like they are the personal lord and saviors over others. The part that makes me laugh the most is the hypocrisy around the religious affiliations LOL.

I will come back to APC’s rented hustlers (clergies) sometime later but does it occur to you that while you’re bashing one party for choosing Muslim/Muslim ticket, the ones that balanced it will laugh at all of you when they meet at their Ogboni meeting (help me insert the shining teeth emoji here) LMAO.

As my friend, choose whom you want to serve with your full chest and stand by it. What I will not take is for you to come and lament when the consequences of your personal choice come to roost. I will laugh at you and still buy you beer on top. Selah.

17th May, 2023 - My darkest hours

Image
One year after her passing, nothing has changed, I still feel pains and, I still have a lot of unanswered questions but, Valar Morghulis - All men must die. (Photo credit: Ramsey's iPhone) Yea, it's been one year already, and nothing has changed. I still feel as much pain as I did exactly one year ago, when the darkest of clouds usurped me. When the earth received my mother's body, it still hurts. I’ve tried many times to do this, but it is what it is. What a year it has been. There was no inkling before it happened, so there is no benchmark. However, it’s a different kind of pain, one I don’t wish on anyone. The 17th of May 2023 will forever remain where it is; hopefully, it remains the darkest ever until my dying day. The mood was obvious; Deepsea could tell in the car. Joy sent me a text message to lift my spirits, but calls from Ibadan informed me that my mom was on her way to the hospital. It didn’t take long for me to realize it wasn’t her usual attention-seeking dr...

If her name is Precious, you're single

People will leave you wondering if you're abnormal, omo iya mi, ma fo, na dem be the problem not you. Oya stay jiggy make we enter road. (Photo credit: Google)   “When you’re losing a tug of war to a tiger, release the rope before it gets to your arm; you can always get another rope, of course, except if you want prosthetics; you don’t want another arm.” - Ancient Chinese proverb remixed by Rambo. 2023 taught me a lot, and one of them is this: “If that person looks too good to be true, don’t force it; the person is certainly a fraud." And this rings true for everything. Whether living or non-living, don’t force it; it’s too good to be true. I was going to write about Precious, but I realized it’s a waste of time. Someone would text or call to tell me I’m pained, and it would get me emotional. I’d rather leave it as it is and sweep it under the rug like I always do. No worries on this one. Lesson number 1 from 2023: Tomorrow isn’t promised! See, a day before my mother passed...

Panda's wife and the memories of Tinubu Road

Image
  Happy birthday beautiful and uber-smart Toyin Adepegba, my good friend from Tinubu Road. (Photo credit: Toyin's WhatsApp status) Toyin Adepegba is 40 today, today is also my parents’ wedding anniversary and it evokes some nostalgia from way back. I remember how they celebrated one particular year, that shit made me start thinking of getting married at just 10… Look at me now LOL. This post is about Toyin, a great human by all standards. She was my first friend at Brand Regimen, she knows her job and has this drive that won’t let her settle for anything below her standards. Let me share a few things I copped from here during our days as colleagues. Toyin was the Business Development Manager at BR and later had to fill in when there was a gap on one of the Account Management Team, one measure of her success in that role as far as I saw was how good Joy became as her protégé, that counts for a lot. While I was the lead on decks and strategy plans, Toyin offered solid outlets o...
