  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.

#WeAreTheThey Campaign, A backlash to Jamelia's "Weight" Comments

Jamelia not sorry for comments, that's what I get for
This should have died down by now, but there has been a backlash on Jamelia's comments she made on Loose Women, few days ago, in which she said 'she didn’t believe ‘stores should stock clothes below or above a certain weight'. Even though, she has apologised for her remarks, she said


'I genuinely love people and believe everyone has the right to feel wonderful and feel beautiful and it was never my intention to make people feel any less than what they are.’
However, she also said she still stood by her remarks.

Twitter fans have taken her on in the #WeAreTheThey Campaign...
