Zowie speaks

Never underestimate the intent of a man's heart. You can sleep on the same bed with him and even have great sex with him but he has concluded his plans of dumping you.

Never underestimate the revenge of a woman raging in anger. Your entire family and even ancestors may be ruined if care isn't taken.

Men are as wicked as women. They are humans who operate with dynamic hearts. Tread softly on how you treat people, many people do not believe in forgiveness. In fact they prefer damnation to repentance.

Do not take people for granted. Honour their loyalty and be honest, being honest builds your integrity and a good name which is better than gold.

It is only yesterday and today that you know, you do not know tomorrow. People hope, people aspire, what you see now is not the true reflection of what will be in future.

Only time will tell those who are truly victorious, those who against all odds chose the path of truth, perseverance and integrity.

A good name they say is better than gold, do well to prove yourself when you are tested. Life is but a vapour nobody is guaranteed what we boast of.

The state of my state

So I have been thinking, if a child offends his father in the house, does the father in the bid to correct his child calls his neighbour to report the bad deed of the child and begs the neighbour to help him spank the child? This is what I know, as a mother, when my baby is wrong, I talk to her calmly, lovely, I tell her how angry I am and I hope she doesn’t repeat it again. Of course, my girl constantly wants my approval so she will promise not be do it again. Other times, she does something wrong and I do not wait to talk to her sweetly. I will give her “abara” (spank), yes I am an African in the sense that I understand that this is my girl’s formative years and there are things that must be driven thoroughly into her. My girl is just 2 years 6months but there are times I have had apologised to her for judging her wrongly and I have scolded myself for being tough on her, other times I think I love her so sweetly that am scared she may get spoilt but I am quick to tell mysel...

Guiding Territories

Image
I understand that when a man cheats it is not always about the fact that his partner is doing something wrong. It is about the fact that it is in his nature to cheat, he has assumed society story that it is a man’s world and he is entitled to more than one woman. It is however amazing that women has so far helped to foster this narrative that most men are trained with the notion that they cannot be committed to a woman. In other to keep their men some women result to violence by tracing the women who has taken their men away and disfiguring their bodies.   Wives tend to pour their frustration on the women whom they think is taking their husbands away from them, forgetting that their husband is as guilty as the mistress. The society should frown at the man who disrespected his wedding vows and made mockery of his matrimonial home.  Everyone protects their territory. It is only a foolish person that sits; arms folded and allow the enemy takes his household into ...

The Condolence Visit.

Image
So I went to pay a condolence visit to a friend who lost her Dad. It happened to be the three days prayers for the dead and there were so many people present. I couldn’t believe my eyes, the governor of the state, ministers of top ministries and agencies, ambassadors both present and former.  I know my friend’s family to be an average Nigerian when it comes to wealth. Her family do not have a large bank account like she makes me believe because her father was a pious and gentle man. He was a content person filled with wisdom; he believed in the ways of the Prophet and sent many almajiri children to school. Politicians would usually seek his consent and request his blessings. These politicians never come to his house empty. While they present gifts in kind and cash to him, he rejects most not without telling the politician how ill he has treated his people and disappointed the Almighty who gave him the opportunity to be there. My friend always complained of how her fat...
