Good Read: The Girl With The Louding Voice - Abi Dare

  In this remarkable story, Adunni, the main character, depicts ambition fuelled with a burning desire to succeed despite all odds. Tales of this type still abound in Lagos, and they are portrayed in the media daily. Adunni is hailed as the poor girl with a rich mind, "Sherlock Holmes," who never stops asking intelligent questions, a child-bride, and a strong-willed girl who grew up fast due to the circumstance her parents put her through. However, she had the guts to pursue the life she wanted. - An education by any means necessary.  Adunni finally got her groove back after reading such an easy book, I could relate to the characters there. the harsh and despicable reality of Lagos till date. I would recommend this book to my friends and would love to see it turned into a film.

Cameron Gets Shoved By Stranger


It is only in the western world, prime ministers get shoved, pelted with rotten eggs and gets heckled at. You rarely find such news or event happen anywhere in Africa. Leaders are hailed; celebrated and respected even if their opinions and policies are not in conformity with the masses. Should be termed as a freedom or just being downright disrespectful? The police would have to be vigilant.
