Is Akwa Ibom Biafra? -The Biafran gist is REAL!

Hello, munchkins! Hope y'all talked to God Father today? Coz, ya know, "ma angels shut the devil up" in Momma Nicki's voice. Coming back from church, turned up the radio and "I AM A BIAFRAN.", came blasting through. Apparently, the dude was an Akwa Ibomite, and he kept insisting that " Akwa Ibom is Biafra." He continues ranting about how Akwa Ibomites should consider themselves as Biafrans and nothing less. I remember some weeks ago, one of my Ibibio friend was saying that "Akwa Ibom isn't Biafra." I've also heard different opinions on the issue, since Akwa Ibom is part of South and Niger Delta states. So, what do you guys think? Is Akwa Ibom, Biafra? The next guy that came on the radio said something that stuck to me- "anyone who still supports One Nigeria, after this, is evil." "This" being the Nigerian soldiers' attack while looking for Nnamdi Kalu. They didn't find him though, but eig...

Are Nigerians safe?

Tbh, I've never been one to follow up news. I always felt that I shouldn't stress myself over things I had no control of. I was wrong. Nigerians in the country will relate to the feeling of fear sweeping like a tornado, over the country. Nowhere is safe, not even our houses. Some days ago, there was a threat to security in Oyigbo, Rivers state. The Biafran youths and the northerners were fighting. This resulted in death and casualties. Also, in most southern states like Abia, the strife got real with raids and killings. One source said: "someone would knock on the door to your house, and when you went to answer the door, you'd be gifted a shot in the head." According to this man, the Nigerian soldiers were going to random houses and shooting the inhabitants with guns. Another man said- "fear gripped my heart when I saw the fighter jets." Fighter jets? I haven't googled this yet to know if there were actually fighter jets involved, or ...

Mind Games (coming soon)

Mind Games [Episode one] By: Treasure A. Abaa Coming soon on Wattpad. 2018© #1 Location: South Africa Specie: fifteen year old human Potential: confirmed                                           Ava "Ava!" Pointedly ignoring my elder sister, I put on my headset and increase the volume to the highest, ignoring the warning sprawled on the screen. Trey Song's Slow motion blasts through my eardrums, effectively damaging my heart for a couple seconds, before I adjust to the loud music in my head. My head. That's where all my fears are. My sister storms off with a hiss, and I immediately pull off the headset to rest on my neck, with a broad grin on my face. Drawing my HP windows vista closer to me, I refresh the bookshelf link, and get comfortable as "Mind Games, Prologue." flashes on the screen. I absolutely detest anything relating to ...

ASUU strike has been called off

So, the ASUU strike has finally been called off. Should I be happy? ...or sad. You know, just two days ago, I was telling my friend -over the phone- that I was so tired of staying at home. I've been wishing and crying and hmuing for the strike to be called off. Now, it finally is, I donno if I should cry or smile๐Ÿ˜‚ Okay, back to school, it is. I'm just super happy that I didn't have to make marriage preparations๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚๐Ÿ˜‚ lmfao. I was even planning to get a job! I actually started learning tailoring๐Ÿ™ˆ๐Ÿ˜น P.s: I'm watching "2 Guns" for the umpteenth time๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿ˜‡๐Ÿš๐Ÿป

Book Review [1]

Fat Girl In Transit by: Nwaanyi_eze @alex_andrey One word for your book, Alex, is 'Wow'. Fat girl in transit is so... Nigerian, and I love it. We need more books like this all over the internet. I love that you used Nigerian names and phrases in the book, and also promoted our local artistes like Simi (Jamb Question). Shalewa is a really strong character. In fact, a little too strong. Being fat in this age isn't easy at all. It's both emotionally and physically draining, literally. I think that the beauty of a Character is appreciating both the strengths and weaknesses. Therefore, our characters have to be three dimensional. That way, other people can easily relate. Shalewa is constantly pressured by the world and her mum, so, in coming chapters, she is allowed to be weak. My friend says that crying is good for the health. Lols. 'Fat Girl In Transit', has a really easy flow to it. There's a healthy dose of romance and humor, which is necessar...

hot coffee๐Ÿ”ฅ

"I think the biggest misconception about me is people really don't know who I really am. They see the party side of me, they see the crazy side of me. But I also have a laid-back side. You know, I'm chill, down to earth. If you want to grab a cup of coffee and just talk about life, I can do that." - Nicole Polizzi

Revenge Of The Plastics [1]

"In a friendship of three teenage girls, the ultimate combo should be; a book obsessed one, a fashion obsessed one, and a boy obsessed one." - Treasureabaa ___________ "Oh my friggin boshhht!" Is this THE TWINS?!" My name is Wren and 'the twins' here are my two best friends from freshman year, before mum decided she needed to tour the world in thirty days, and before Dad realised that the fashion world had more to offer than boring stock exchange. Breathe in. Breathe out. Blinking rapidly as my eyes peek open to see that lo and behold, my wild imagination wasn't conjuring up the twins. They really are standing before me with stupid grins on their pie faces. I cannot believe my eyes, just when I thought I was in for a senior year of hell, the famous duo shows up. Kenny and Carla were one of the only friends I had before Dad decided to move to Indonesia for mum's sake. She was starting to get upset about minor issues, and I even ...

The writer's fear

I gaze wide eyed at the book in my hands Beautiful ethereal writings scribbled on the pages gazes back at me. The words, my words! They are Alive! The book flies out of my hands and lands on the ground with a loud thud The pen follows swiftly My breath coming in shirt gasps I need to run! What the hell?! The lights are out, leaving me shrouded by darkness My breathing ragged I crawl my way to the door Finding the handle and wrapping long fingers around it I pull but to no avail Locked. I'm trapped! A few thousand shakes of the handle I'm drenched in my own sweat The unmistakable metallic taste in my mouth Blood! Musta bit my tongue. Suddenly, something glints in the darkness I feel for it. A key! Stealthily the luck turns Letting me out, banging the door behind me I look left and right My breathing calms Heart beat is back to normal Normalcy is a pretense I smile as I pretend that nothing just happened. This really happened to me! I was w...

Oh! NEPA (or whatever the power holding company now call themselves) have taken their light :((( This is so unfair! I'm like super bored and my room's really dark. I feel like I'm lost in the dark ages! So, I was going through my Instagram page, and I saw a LOT of beautiful pictures there. I realise that I need a photographer. If any of you know, or maybe you're a photographer, please email me, or comment below, OR go directly to my IG. My Instagram user is sassyteasel.
