On the day that I wrote my one and only UTME, I was tensed and scared because of the tales about how hard it was to pass plus one would be sitting with strangers.

But seeing the questions, I relaxed because I was familiar with them and do answered them to the best of my knowledge and I passed when the results were released.

I suppose that some of the students who took the last UTME were like me on the day of their exams or even worse because of exam tension but what I am sure is that none of them would say that they have not seen similar questions before then with the plenty lessons centers littered everywhere in the country now.

But what I don't understand is that why the massive failure?

Many people have blamed it on social media addiction and some say it's because many parents have failed to check up on the academic performance of their wards because they are busy chasing money, yet again some say it's because of the time slated for the exam while some blame it on the technical glitches from JAMB's corner.

But for JAMB now to come out and say "man proposes, God disposes" is the height of nonchalancy and unaccountability on the their part. Like you couldn't prepare ahead of time to ensure that everything goes smoothly?

And instead of taking the blame for your nonprofessionalism, you are pushing it to God, like seriously?

Well I don't blame them, because we as a Nation depends too much on divine intervention for things we can easily task ourselves for, so JAMB doing what almost all of us do, instead of taking responsibility for our actions, we blame spiritual forces.

In that vain, let's pray that the next exam will be glitch-free and all candidates will come out in flying colours, Amen.

Good morning ladies and gentlemen, how did you sleep last night? May today favour us all, Amen 🙏🙏

I know I was not the only one who was told that once we threw our fallen teeth on the roof, rats will carry it and give us fine and tiny teeth like theirs 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Now I wonder where those whose teeth are like shovel threw their own because I got what I wished for when I threw mine unto the roof.

Meanwhile it's my baby's birthday, please say a word of prayer for my Lil Miss Zara. 🙏

Ever since my brother and I were called "longer throats" by some children around our ages years ago just because we arrived too early for a party that we were rightfully invited, I developed a phobia for parties just because I would know when is the right time to turn out for one.

I have talked to myself about it because most times when I get invited for parties I develope "cold feet" just because of this use-less fear.

That had been the reason why I don't show up for most parties that I should even when the person is so close to me, I would always come up with one excuse or the other.

Now people would say during your own time, nobody will turn up for you but guess what? That doesn't even bother me because I'm an introvert and as one avoiding parties even our own does sound so serious.

That's why I have always fancied a private wedding celebration, just the couple, officiating priest(s) and close relations, no reception, no party.

I hope my spouse would subscribe to that because I wouldn't know how to face the crowd 🤦🤷, anyway till then we shall find a way around it.

But for now check out my these designs 👇👇

MARRIED TO A GHOST

When we tell ladies to ensure a guy pays your bride price before moving in with him it seems as if we are jealous of her love life, likewise to the guys, marry a lady properly according to the customs and traditions of her people but no, you folks wants it cheap which is not do cheap.

I know you must have watched it on TV from Nollywood movies of how men were made to marry their lovers in deat.h before she would be committed to the grave but I tell you solemnly, it happens in real life.

I know a grandpa whose "wife" dyed right in her ripe old age, infact both couple were warming up to becoming great-grandparents before she dyed.

Normally when such happens, aside that the woman's family already knows but you have to go "officially" to inform them and they will ask you pertinent questions regarding her life and how she dyed.

Alas, this grandpa went with kinsmen and children to inform his "in-laws" of what he befallen him but their reaction were least expected.

To the children's dismay and the kinsmen disgrace, the dea.d grandma was not properly married. Nothing was paid on her head.
Infact her kinsmen accused the grandpa of kidna.pping their daughter and that they had been looking for her since years ago.

The children were shocked to get such reaction from their maternal uncle's whom they had a pleasant relationship before.

Long story short, the grandpa was made to marry his wife properly or else he would not be allowed to bury her.

He was made to perform traditional right due to her, no exceptions were made despite that she was dea.d. He even printed invitation cards like it was a "normal" wedding.

Though his children assisted with all the expenses but it wasn't a nice experience.

Learn from other's mistakes and take precautions. A word is enough for the wise.

📷 Is the wedding IV I did over the weekend, when you marry in the proper way, you would enjoy your marriage despite any challenge.

Wouldn't you like to get something like this or even better?

CHAPTER 4: THE HOLLOW VICTORY (GUILT & REGRETS)

The baby came screaming into the world at Reddington Hospital, one of the biggest in town, a boy with striking resemblance to both parents, he has Emeka’s broad nose and Amanda’s piercing eyes.

Two more followed in quick succession—twins, a cruel joke from the ancestors.

With each child, Amanda’s triumph curdled. Emeka, once so polished, became a harried shell of a man, juggling diapers and dwindling business accounts. Nneka, stripped of her social standing, moved to a flat in Ikeja, where she wallowed in pain and regrets and ignored her sister’s calls.

And the children...

They called her "Mummy," their small hands clinging to her with unconditional love. Love she didn’t deserve.

One harmattan night, she dreamed of her father’s face—weathered now, his once-proud shoulders stooped from shame.

"Was my pain worth this eh, Ada'm?he asked with disappointed written all over his face.

She woke up choking on silent tears. What has she gotten herself into, she wondered?
