@TooMuchDora @ShamzPorridge They are so many things that trigger a housemaid to do such things: the way you treat her, the way you pay her, and may be it may be her prior plan for coming

Thank You for Donating Your “Super Brain” To Be The President Of Nigeria — Akpabio Appreciates Tinubu
President of the Senate, Godswill Akpabio, has praised the developmental progress of Lagos State and commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for laying what he described as the right foundation for Nigeria’s growth.
Speaking during an event, Akpabio acknowledged the impact of successive Lagos administrations, noting that the state’s transformation began with earlier leaders, including the late former governor Lateef Jakande.
He said, “So I can confirm now, Mr. Governor, successive administrations after Asiwaju and after our late sage, Lateef Jakande, of blessed memory, you are changing Lagos.”
The Senate President also offered prayers for the state’s leadership and residents, adding, “May God Almighty continue to keep you alive and keep the good people of Lagos alive.”
Commending President Tinubu’s leadership, Akpabio described him as a “super brain” whose governance legacy in Lagos has extended to national development.
He stated, “I thank you for donating a super brain to Nigeria to be the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, GCFR, is laying the right foundation, not just for the growth of Lagos alone, but now for the growth of Nigeria.”
Expressing optimism about the country’s future, he concluded, “And inshallah, by the grace of God, Nigeria shall move forward.”

My father never came to a single thing I invited him to.
Not my primary school graduation. Not my secondary school prize giving where I collected 3 awards and kept looking at the gate. Not my university matriculation. Not the ceremony when I got called to bar in 2012. I'd send him the date weeks in advance and he'd say I'll try and that was always the full sentence. I'll try. No follow up. No explanation after.
My mother would sit in his place and clap loud enough for 2 people.
I stopped inviting him after the bar call. Not from anger. Some people love you completely and still cannot show up and after a while you stop making them feel guilty about it.
He was not a bad man. I want to be clear about that.
He was a mechanic in Mushin for 35 years. Worked 6 days a week. Sent every one of us to school. Never raised his hand. Never left. The lights stayed on and the rent was paid and there was always food and he did all of it quietly without asking to be celebrated.
He just could not sit in a plastic chair and watch something.
I accepted that and moved on.
Last year I bought my first property. A flat in Ojodu. Took 9 years of saving and 2 years of paperwork and a lawyer who nearly finished me. When the keys finally came I sat in the empty flat on the floor for an hour just breathing.
I called my mother first. She screamed. My sister cried.
I didn't call my father.
3 days later he called me.
Said he heard about the flat from my mother. Said he wanted to come and see it.
I didn't know what to do with that so I just said okay. Gave him the address. Figured he'd say I'll try and we'd never speak of it again.
He showed up on Saturday at 9am.
Stood at the door in his good agbada. The one he only wears for serious things. Holding a small nylon bag.
I let him in and he walked through every room without speaking. Not quickly. Slowly. Like he was counting something. He checked the pipes under the kitchen sink. Knocked on the walls. Opened and closed the windows twice each. Looked at the ceiling in every room the way only a man who has fixed things his whole life looks at ceilings.
Then he came and stood in the sitting room and looked at me.
Said the pipework is good. Said the windows seal properly. Said whoever built this knew what they were doing.
I nodded.
Long silence.
Then he opened the nylon bag.
Inside was a small framed photo. Me at maybe 7 years old sitting on the bonnet of an old car in his workshop. Grinning. Both legs swinging. He's standing beside me with his hand on my shoulder looking at something outside the frame. I remember that day. I had gone to the workshop after school and he let me sit there while he worked and gave me a Fanta and put a Michael Jackson cassette on the small radio.
I didn't know anyone had taken a photo.
He said he kept it on his workshop table for 22 years. Said he wanted me to have something for the new place.
I held that frame and stood very still.
He said he knew he missed things. Said he was not good at the sitting and watching. That crowds made something in him go wrong in a way he never knew how to explain.
Then he said the flat was good and he was proud and he asked if there was anything in the kitchen because he hadn't eaten.
I laughed.
Made him eggs and bread while he sat at my kitchen table in his good agbada like he owned the place.
We ate and he told me about a car he was working on. I told him about a case that was giving me trouble. Normal conversation. The kind we should have been having for years.
He left at 1pm. At the door he gripped my shoulder the same way he did in that photo.
Didn't say anything.
Didn't need to.
The photo is on my sitting room wall now. First thing I hung in the whole flat.
Some fathers cannot sit in the plastic chair.
But mine drove to Ojodu in his good agbada on a Saturday morning with a 22 year old photograph in a nylon bag.
That was his standing ovation.
I just didn't know to look for it in that shape.

I watched the video of the Father that went to the gym to arrest a gym instructor for impregnating his 17 year old daughter. For some reasons, I am always of the opinion that any guy that goes to the gym every morning and evening, Monday to Sunday, rubs cream and powder, and be doing fine boy isn't serious with his life.
Aside that broadchest, lines between their stomach known as 6 packs, and and yeye body physique which they pride in, most of them are gold diggers who prey on ignorant women.
They will wear singlet every night, rub cream and be doing fine boy. Majority of them are Male Ashawo under the guise of Bouncers. They know that's what most ladies want, so they prioritize it
I am sorry to say this, if you are dating a guy under that category, you might just be dating yourself. Some of you ladies are the ones bankrolling them under the serious boyfriend tag. Una go see shege. Some blackmail some of these ladies and take money from them.
They are the people Cindy referred to as iron condemn preek. Ṅa dem dey gather baby mama full everywhere. Take this post seriously for all I care.
Except it's emergency and your life depends on it, avoid bouncers and gym instructors. They will mess your life up

Two weeks after I got married, my mother in law came for a visit. She had missed our wedding because of a flight issue but came later.
She and I vibed instantly because I had not met her before.
We were inside her room one day, when my husband entered and asked where the laundry I did was, he looked frustrated as he asked for a particular cloth which I had washed
I quickly excused myself from to look for the shirt for him and when I went back to the room, my mother in law asked why I allow him talk to me like that
"Enipe?" 😳
"You're doing his laundry and he still can't look for his clothes himself? What are you? A maid?"
She pulled me closer and said, "see ehn, don't let him turn you to his house girl o, since I got married, I've never done his father's laundry, instead he does mine and I brought him up to be that kind of man, if he's not gon be polite and appreciate your efforts by looking for his clothes after you've washed it, let him wash and fold himself" she said
That was the last time I did his laundry in that house and he has been doing mine
Good mothers in law exist
