Mention it, and I’m sure that someone, somewhere is experiencing it. When I started the Verastically Speakin’ Talk Radio, I wanted to talk about everyday issues. One year later, I still want to talk about everyday issues. However, I also want to talk about everything else. Bring it on. I want to talk about it. I want to learn. I want us all to learn. Below are some future shows that I need co-hosts for (and by co-hosts, I mean {Read More}
"Kill Me," Says Babangida
September 28, 2010 by 11 Comments
The more I hear and read from or about Babangida, the more pissed off I become. The nerves he has! You’d think that after all the atrocities he committed in Nigeria, he’d be too chicken to even reside in the country, but alas, that is not to be. I watched a recent video interview of him on CNN, and speaking of the annulment of the 1993 election (you know, the one we all hate him for), he said, “[Nigerians] look back and {Read More}

Because Gay Nigerians DO Exist
September 23, 2010 by 10 Comments
Since I announced the upcoming show about the existence of gay Nigerians, I have been asked – both privately and publicly – about the details of the show. 1. What do you mean, gay Nigerians? 2. Are your co-hosts gay? 3. Are they Nigerian-Nigerians or Akata-Nigerians? 4. Are your co-hosts gay-gay or are they just experimenting? 5. They’re gay? And they’re Nigerians? There’s only one reason why I’m having this show on Saturday, and just like the name implies, it {Read More}
Book Review: Oil, Politics, And Violence by Max Siollun
September 22, 2010 by 4 Comments
When I got this book, I was terrified. The two hundred and fifty-five pages, the title of the book (Oil, Politics, and Violence), and what seemed like a smaller than normal font that hugged the white pages, it all terrified me. When will I finish this book? The book wasn’t about fictional characters with dynamic personalities. It wasn’t a book with a plot full of suspense or drama. It was a book based on facts. Political facts. Nigerian political facts. {Read More}

The Single Married Man
September 16, 2010 by 11 Comments
There are men who are married, but apparently don’t know they are married. Or maybe they know, but they don’t really care that they are married. I think it’s the latter. I’m sure that everyone and their mama has heard about cheating married men. Everyone probably knows at least one cheating married man. I don’t know if every woman has been offered the position of mistress in the life of a married man. A little while ago, I was offered {Read More}
Soooo… She Got Pulled Over
September 14, 2010 by 18 Comments
Mom was jejely driving when she got pulled over. Before she finished her story, I was ready to say, “I told you to stop driving like that!” My mom is notorious for giving people an almost-coronary-attack while she’s driving. Let’s just say her way of switching lanes and making turns are neither friendly to her SUV nor the passengers that let themselves be transported in it. But I digress. Mom has been pulled over before, most times for driving above {Read More}
