  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.

5 Year Old Andrea Gada's Grandparents Denied Visa, To Attend Her Funeral
How much grief can one handle at a time?, that is the question the family (Grandparents and aunt) of Zimbabwean 5 year old Andrea Gada would be asking themselves. They have been turned down by the Home Office for temporary UK visas to attend her funeral.

Late Andrea Gada was hit by a car before christmas in Eastbourne, Sussex. According to the Guardian, The Bishop of Chichester showed his disapproval by saying...
“This cannot be right. It offends at the most elementary level of human compassion.”
Andrea’s father, Wellington, said:
“Ever since our beloved daughter was tragically killed we have tried in vain to get my wife’s father, mother and sister who live in Zimbabwe to attend her funeral. This would give our two remaining children, and our ourselves, much needed comfort at this grieving moment.”
The Eastbourne community, including Andrea’s school, Shinewater primary, have rallied around her refugee parents, Wellington and Charity Gada, to raise more than £5,000 to enable her relatives to travel. Andrea’s funeral has had to be postponed until the situation is resolved.

A man in Nigeria was caught and confronted by army officers for wearing a camouflage vest. He was later apprehended; but the impostor's response was not forthcoming but highly hilarious. Watch footage after the break.
