The moment you are in public space you must learn to not take personal what people say or do to you. Some it might be because of the misinformation they have, some it might be because they want to protect their interests and some it is plain childishness and silliness.
There are things that people will say to me and have said that I wave off. Why?! Because I chose to be in the public space and that made me to take responsibility for whatever is thrown at me.
If I hadn't come to the public space and they did some of the things they do, I probably will break the person's every single bone🤣🤣
Come to my house to talk to me anyhow, you go just see anyhow! The moment I decided to put myself in the public domain I accepted your anyhowness
There are people we are friends today that during last administration called me a prostitute and said APC men were passing me round. It was based on their sycophancy and need to defend government. Tomorrow will they go back to their ways and call me prostitute? Strong probability
There are some who said I was the best thing after jollof rice during GEJ who call me prostitute today. Can we be friends again when they no longer have need to defend government? Absolutely yes!
I know who I am. They are still finding themselves.
You must learn to be true to yourself and not allow yourself to be emotionally blackmailed or guilt tripped.
If you are going to help anyone, DO!
If you don't want to help anyone, DON'T!
You do not owe anyone any explanation!
What is most important is not what is done to you. What is most important is what you do to yourself and to others. You are the only person you have to tolerate 24/7. You must like what you do and be at peace with yourself.

People talk as if the North did not vote for Jonathan in 2011. Lets go through the results! The main contenders were PDP ( Jonathan) & CPC (Buhari).
Lets start with Adamawa Jonathan won Adamawa. He got 508,314. Buhari got 344,526 #YouAreNaijaSycophants
In Bauchi Jonathan got 258,204 & Buhari got 1,315, 209.

FCT, Jonathan got 253,444 while Buhari got 131,576
Gombe Jonathan got 290,376 while Buhari got 495,898 #YouAreNaijaSycophants
In 2011 Jigawa gave Jonathan 491,252 votes while giving Buhari 663,994 yet some come here shouting that Jonathan was voted out in 2015 because of his region & religion. When he won, what region was he & what religion was he? #YouAreNaijaSycophants perpetuating #GenerationalHatred
When they marched and said #EnoughIsEnough and Jonathan should be made Acting President in 2010 you called them heroes. When they marched and said fuel subsidy should be removed in 2012 you called them zeroes. #YouAreNaijaSycophants
When they voted Jonathan in 2011 you called them patriots but when they refused to vote Jonathan in 2015 you called them traitors #YouAreNaijaSycophants
Your concern is that the one you like must be praised and you be the ones that continue to have access to give out bad governance #YouAreNaijaSycophants
On January 1st 2012 fuel subsidy was removed and for me it was the best News ever! Finally, the govt was doing something right!
My support for the removal of subsidy was the reason I never joined #OccupyNigeria protest. I saluted the Nigerians that did #BuhariFuelSubsidyScam
I saluted the Nigerians that did, because for the first time, I saw Nigerians uniting and making demands like I have never seen before except during the 1993 elections #BuhariFuelSubsidyScam
I watched aghast as citizens were attacked and killed by security agents across the Nation and finally the reduction and compromise reached by government and NLC and for me it was all heartbreaking. #BuhariFuelSubsidyScam
I married a man not a little boy playing at being a man. My husband is the most practising feminist that I know. We have the same values and that makes things extremely easy. We have mutual respect for each other. He doesn't see me as handler of the house, he sees us as handlers
My husband constantly asks how can he make things easy for me and I also do the same for him. Instead of assigned roles we do that which is our strength.
I don't know how the cooking gas in my house gets replaced. He didn't know when the kids(now young adults) wrote their exams
Before we got married my husband told me I had to be financially independent. He believes a woman must have total control of her life.
Good evening everyone.
I am okay. I refused to run. I walked with my fist high up. @PoliceNG were all shooting at me as I walked away. I came out of the fence they cowardly built around themselves and about 4 of them came at me at the junction throwing bottled water this time 😁
With my fist still raised i told them how shameless they were. One of them cursed me and I gave it back to him. Only one of the bottled water they threw at me touched me slightly and from anyone far away with 4 of them throwing water bottles at me it would have seemed they had me
One of them had pushed me and the raised hand might be what some saw as a slap. No, I wasn't slapped and I refused to cower and I turned and gave them a piece of what I thought of their pathetic selves and if I am going to die, it would be with my fist high up and my mouth open
Our demands were as follows
1.Instruct the Police Commands nationwide to immediately stop harassing, threatening, assaulting, terrorizing, brutalizing and killing citizens who are peacefully protesting to the government to #EndSARSImmediately
2.The Public Trust in the Police is closer to zero than to one at this time and nothing marginal or tentative by the Inspector General will suffice for Citizens.
