Who should be one's NEXT OF KIN?

A thread

Choosing a NEXT OF KIN is not a herculean task and definitely not something one can do in a hurry or just pick anyone like we pick up data randomly to fill up a form as we are used to. For unmarried folks, one's parents may be the best, or one of your siblings in whom you have confidence to carry on your estate or business in the case you pass away (May you live long but don't be too religious, we will die someday🙂).

I saw a picture of a boy doing a bus conductor @TheNationNews twitter handle and it sparked some memories that I believe it's not yet time to share.

But believe me, when you see people struggle that much, fight to live a better life like a wounded lion

1/8 It's borne out the raging desire not to be an outlaw and neither condemn yourself to the demeaning attitude of begging for a living, but rather be a provider amidst the stringent living conditions and harsh realities that we have been created to live with in this

I support this, it doesn't make any sense that the Federal government in their strong opposition will come back to claim it will supervise Amotekun. Who does that and who does not know it is a ploy to render Amotekun useless like some of their many security agencies.l Lest we forget, Amotekun was created because the Federal Government failed to protect the people and curtail the excesses of criminal in the southwest, for them to come out now and claim that they want to start supervising Amotekun through one of their many useless and failing...

The supreme court judgement that allows female children to inherit their parents properties after death is worthy of commendation and celebration. I just can't stomach how some cultures go down to deprive a particular gender what should outrightly be their right because of gender We live in a very crazy world, and funny enough in a very funny society where the least impossible expectation play out before us like an Indian movie. Where culture plays a role in characterizing relationship between a man and a woman, while also dictating what to do and not do.

HONOURABLE ABBAS AGBOWORIN: One of the Inarobo Makinde Tsunami Beneficiary of the 2019 Fallout in Ibadan. As much as I believe a good grammar is not a yardstick for performance in any political office entrusted in one's hand, it is a big disaster when the political office holder's performance is mediocre and more painful when he cannot express his or herself in simple English.

But everyone always try to cover up because of stigma and fear, while some of those that opened up do it for clout , thereby creating a distrust from concerned parties who will push the fight on their behalf, until the very terrible happened like the Uwa's case. Rape is a serious crime, that should be dealt with in proper legislation, social castigation and follow-up of justice, while the false accusers should be santioned too

Yesterday, a video popped up of a lady being assaulted by a grown man, and instead of hell to let loose,...

Still on the #NoToRape campaign

Sometimes last year when Senator Abbo assaulted two ladies, what came of it?

Some said that he has apologised, apology is not enough tho How many women know the female legislators that we have in the National Assembly (Senate & Reps)

Apart from social media noise, how many actually followed up with protest and calls for legislation to seek justice for the tape victims or domestic violence

CORONAVIRUS LOCKDOWN PALLIATIVES: ASK YOURSELF, DO YOU DESERVE IT?

Nigeria has a population of over 200 million people, and just about 40 million (1/5) have BVNs.
🙄🙄

Now ask yourself again if you really deserve that palliative?

You’re not among the poorest of the poor! The whole idea of using BVN to determine the poorest of the poor people is a sham!

The real vulnerable and very poor people don't even have a bank account and they don't have information with the government statistics apart from the fact that they add up to the population.

I agree that times are difficult and everyone is in one mess or the other just trying to survive, but I think it's insensitive for some of y'all folks to just jump on any tweet and start asking for financial help. At times, you see a very important discussion and you are looking for smart submissions but you see people trying to wave it off and ask for financial help like they will die if they don't get it.
