A thundering roar, rattling like an atomic weapon, could immediately be followed by blinding flashes of lightning even before the roar hit the horizon walls. Lightning was dangerous, it killed people. Thunders too, they turned people deaf. Continue reading “When the Rain Stops”

Why Rural Girls Still Need to be Empowered: The Story of Truphena

This happened many years ago, when I was in class six but it is vivid in my mind as though it happened yesterday. Fun fact: I had my first crush in class six but I was too shy to tell her. She was a pastor’s kid. Pastor’s kids will be the end of me. IContinue reading “Why Rural Girls Still Need to be Empowered: The Story of Truphena”

MY BEST READ 2019

First forward, I challenged myself to devour 52 books this year. Unfortunately, due to my small ‘tummy’ and my slow ‘chewing mechanism’, I have only done 45 books. I have failed!

Women Too Deserve A part of the Family Estate

On 16th December 2018, I was graduating from University with an Undergrad degree. The graduation square was full of women and men. We were now ready to face the outside world. Ladies were the happiest lot, taking selfies and smiling to the heavens; it seemed like Africa had started seeing sense in educating her girls.Continue reading “Women Too Deserve A part of the Family Estate”

Politicians Can’t Fix Our Problems. Only Us Can.

If I am not helping people use common sense, I advocate for a change in Africa-a positive change in how we think and do our things. I have always said we should radically change the nature of our politics, because the adversarial politics of killing, beating, or insulting someone you disagree with is uncalled for,Continue reading “Politicians Can’t Fix Our Problems.

Dreams From My Father- Review

I started reading this book two weeks ago. The journey through the life of Barrack has been remarkable, emotional, scary, startling But Very Inspiring. I have loved him more! It opens with a bible verse “For we are strangers before thee, and sojourners, as were all our fathers.” 1st Chron 29:15. He ushers into anContinue reading “Dreams From My Father- Review”
