  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.

The Fuel Scarcity In Nigeria, Why Now?

The Fuel Scarcity In Nigeria, Why Now
How would you remember President Goodluck Jonathan's administration, apart from Boko Haram and Chibok girls abduction? Petrol and fuel shortage hitting the country very hard like one had never imagined nor experienced! The fuel shortage is so severe that businesses and services have come to a standstill. Lives are being lost in hospitals, schools and airports have cancelled their schedules till there is normalcy with the fuel situation.


 Nigeria is known to be one of the oil producing countries in the world, yet is faced with electric disruptions which has been going on for decades. What baffles me is that the whole country is affected, from Abuja to Lagos, everyone has a woeful tale to tell with regards to the petrol saga. Did the present administration not see this coming!

It is being reported by BBC that Nigeria has dilapidated refineries and arrears amounting to a billion in Naira. Come 29th May,2015, the new administration of Buhari / Osibajo will have inherited piles of problems from the previous administration. We all look forward in seeing how they would resolve some of the problems faced by Nigerians and Nigeria as a country.

Trust Nigerians, they are resilient and can make light out of a dire situation - but to those who are really struggling to cope, my sympathy.

If you are affected by the fuel shortage, how bad is it in your area?

God bless Nigeria
