Well Dr Orekunrin is the only reasonable Nigerian there, proudly Afonja. As for chimamanda, I don't know the female rights she's "activitisting" for. All proponents for Gender equality should go and sit down, When ladies start texting guys first on whatsapp, I'll take them seriously. As for Emmanuella, I think the organizers are confused or just don't understand English. 7 Likes |

Good news honestly am really getting tired of this country, it's been 2 weeks now, I've been hunting for a short time job to do before the school resume, for me to afford my school fees and other expenses, yet no work anywhere, though some people has contributed their own quotas, but honestly is this country this doomed, for someone who has the urge to work and couldn't find just one, not even a white collar job... Factory, serving, motor boy, petrol attendant, office jobs, even site works... None. Am seriously depressed Should incase the story change from ur end Pls contact me on both what'sapp and call line on O7O 33266193. I STAY IN ABEOKUTA. THANKS 2 Likes |
