As a young girl growing up in Nigeria, life we've always been taught to be a battle field and we're brought up with so much humility and respect for elder ones. Watching movies and seeing the freedom white children possess always fascinated us and we wish to be like them. There are so many things… Continue reading THE STORY OF A NIGERIAN CHILD.

Civilisation
Hello, It's been long 🙂, I've been busy with exams and I have a lot of things to do. The pages kept tearing and the words erasing, The legacies of our fathers up in blazes, Sacred knowledge and teachings no longer existing, The consequences of our actions affecting us in phases. Like a painter repainting… Continue reading Civilisation

Seated on a mountain's peak A pleasant sight lies in front of me The beauty of this vast world Shall remain in my memory The images the clouds form in my headAnd the building which look like tiny pieces from above. But peering a little bit deeper, I see the emptiness of this worldThe higher… Continue reading POETRY
