In the past couple of days, my blog was hijacked by sponsored posts, and I mean that in the best way possible. Love it! And that's why I'm late in talking about Obama's epic fail --- according to some people who clearly have something stuck up their a-hole. When I first saw the picture of Obama and the Prime Ministers, my first reaction was awww. I thought it was mighty cool to see leaders of the world - literally - doing something as simple and casual as taking a selfie (by the way, selfie is Read More
Scandal Season 3, Episode 10: A Door Marked Exit

I'm typing this post as I watch the show. Talk about a live post. Let's go. The episode started with Vice President Sally Langston.

Nigerian Twin Sisters Marry Twin Brothers

The reason why I made sure to add Nigerian to the title is that I have had a very similar post before where twin sisters married twin brothers, but they weren't Nigerian. See that post here. Meet Mr. & Mrs. Okonweze. The girls are Febia and Fola, and the boys are Akin and Ade. One of the boys is Chibuzor, and I'm not clear exactly what the other one's Igbo name is.
