A Detailed Explanation of Feminism for Nigerians

What is Feminism

Feminism is a social, political, and cultural movement, a belief that men and women should have equal rights and opportunities. It aims to eliminate gender discrimination, sexism, and patriarchal norms and structures that marginalize and oppress women. Feminists fight for women’s rights and gender equality, including reproductive rights, fair wages, ending sexual harassment and assault, and much more.

Don’t get it twisted

Before you twist it, it’s not a movement to make women become like men and vice versa. Feminism targets the system not the gender! Okay maybe the gender lol. The system includes political, social, religion, educational, career sector, etc.

New Year token for you and yours

Compliments of the season!

Not the best of the year, but it’s one of my best seasons, regardless. I was trying to write something to inspire you yet again, but I thought a video would serve same purpose.

One of the challenges I had was looking for the perfect word, the perfect posture, oh, I didn’t have a script, I just wanted it to flow. There were lots of frictions, and finally I could release this less than 3 minutes video.

How to get rid of Chapped Lips

All day long, your skin glows, people have asked you a couple of times what your skin care routine is, you blush and stylishly wet your lips with spit, so they donโ€™t notice your lips have some similarities with the bark of a tree โ€“ all dry.

Cheilitis, or chapped lips, is a common and irritating condition, your lips are dry, cracked or sore. Lip skin is significantly thinner and more sensitive than skin found elsewhere on the body. The sun and cold, dry air also expose the lips, making them prone to dryness, cracking, flaking, and peeling.

You’re my Onions – Lori Iro

One of the best videos you’d see on the internet, trending for about two days now, is an Evangelist, who went about preaching, somewhere in Ogun State. The centre of his message was pivoted on lies, that is, he preached against lies. How he went about it was both amusing and touching. For me, I’d say, message received.

Let me run you through the lyrics and then you’d play the embedded video below. You have most likely seen it, but I’ve not been tired of playing this video, over and over again, especially the part where he start to sound the bell in a melodious rhythm, danced to it and sang along ๐Ÿ˜‚ ๐Ÿ’ƒ . Are you sure I won’t turn this to my Phone Ringing Tone ๐Ÿค”?

The Citation Movie Review: say no to sexual assault

I was just few minutes into the Citation movie, I got intrigued by the graphics, the transition in between scenes, the representation of the African culture, the meaningful dialogues, the casts, and the systematic unfolding of the story, it all summed up into a perfect artistic piece. I was forced to pause in between, and ask Google if it was still Kunle Afolayan that wrote it. It was him! What was I expecting ๐Ÿ˜‚? He has a good track record in telling true African stories.

Cash Crash (Short Story by Precious Deji-Omolere)

Ada lay on the bed, staring at the fan slicing through the air; the speed slowed down and she felt fresh air was withdrawn from the room. Her eyes rolled to the side socket, the red light was off. The cloud turned ash with the 1pm sunshine on a standby. Her mind went to the clothes she thought she washed, then remembered it was interrupted by the disturbing call from her boss. Ope, her cousin who came visiting for two weeks before the President declared lockdown in Abuja.

How to make the most of the lockdown in a very special way

I was in the room that night reading about the spread of the Novel Coronavirus, how it was spreading from country to country. As at then, it had not spread to Nigeria. But I felt like a virus that doesn’t respect developed countries would do same to developing countries unless we make a serious move, which is the least any country could do.

Just like me, there are several others that found the lockdown shocking, the shocking part is having to stay home for this long. I thought in two weeks, the US should have been able to find a solution to it, but here we are, all the countries of the world are trying so hard to fight it.
