Nigeria at 63 Will Sorrow Yield to Hope?

On October 1, 1960, Nigeria emerged from the shadows of colonial rule into the light of independence. The air was thick with anticipation and jubilation as the nation celebrated the dawn of a new era. Little did the citizens know that the journey ahead would be a complex narrative of hope, struggle, and unmet expectations.

The early days of independence were painted with the vibrant hues of optimism. Nigerians rejoiced in the newfound freedom, envisioning a nation united in progress and prosperity. The dreams were lofty a harmonious society, a thriving economy, and a better life for all.

But as the years passed, the narrative changed. The echoes of joy turned into whispers of disappointment. The dreams we once cradled became casualties of political chaos, economic hardship, and social discord.

The bitter truth is, our journey from independence is a tale of unmet expectations. The pages of our history are stained with the ink of struggle, and the dreams that fueled our fight for freedom have been replaced by the harsh reality of a nation wrestling with its own complexities.

NIGERIA IS SIXTY THREE TODAY!

Nigeria, at 63, what's become of the dreams we held? For us, the young ones, it feels like bitterness and sorrow are our constant companions. In school, where we're supposed to learn and dream, strict rules and tough systems make it all feel heavy. Instead of a hopeful journey, it seems like we're carrying scars from a system that forgets us.

What lessons are we learning, Nigeria? In our classrooms, the government seems distant, not helping us or the country. Our focus should be on learning, but it's tough when the people in charge don't seem to care.

It's so strange. Nigeria has a lot, but jobs are so hard to find. For us, it means dreams are stuck, and the way to a better future is full of obstacles. Unemployment feels like a big weight on the dreams of the young people who are supposed to lead the way.

Politics, the way big people play their games, leaves us feeling left out. Nigeria, at 63, what game are you playing? The stage is filled with broken promises, and we, the ones watching, see our dreams getting crushed because of these political games.

The economy, the thing that should make everything work, seems broken. For us, it means dreaming big is tough when there isn't enough for everyone. The dreams of a good future feel far away because the money and jobs aren't there.

Being safe is a big worry. Nigeria, at 63, how do you fix this fear that's always there? The shedding of blood is like a dark cloud hanging over us, and it feels like we're growing up in a place where being safe is a hope, not a sure thing.

Fixing things is needed. The system we're in has problems, and it feels like the people in charge are more interested in helping themselves than helping us. How can we believe in a system that seems to care more about the big shots than us?

In this sad picture, Nigeria at 63 needs a new start. We all need to look inside and fix the problems holding back this country. As the ones who are supposed to lead the way, we're not just asking for change; we're demanding it. We want a tomorrow that's not filled with bitterness and sorrow, but one that's filled with hope and a chance for everyone.

UNCHARTED ODYSSEY

In a world where it feels like women are only seen as objects of desire, a heavy feeling settles in the heart. Society can be like a fog, only noticing what's on the surface and forgetting the dreams and depth in every woman. It's a sad reality where being more than just an object becomes a tough battle.

It was on the 5th of February 2015, during our mid-term break. As a secondary school girl who loves reading beyond schoolwork, I went to the market to get some books to enjoy during my holiday. Upon reaching the bookshop, I stumbled upon a hidden treasure titled "Woman at Point Zero." As the pages unfolded like the endless sands before me, I found myself entangled in the haunting tale of Firdaus, a woman sentenced to death in an Egyptian prison.

The author, Nawal El Saadawi, told a story that took me deep into the struggles of people in a harsh desert world. It wasn't just a story; it made me think about the tough parts of life we often ignore.

Firdaus' story, told with raw honesty, painted a vivid picture of how society oppresses and how she fought back. Nawal El Saadawi used words like a sharp sword, breaking through the silence around Firdaus.

Through Firdaus' eyes, I saw a girl turn into a woman, made tough by a society that wasn't fair. From a tough childhood to a loveless marriage, Firdaus' journey echoed the stories of many silenced voices.

The prison, like a character itself, saw Firdaus' silent rebellion. Her meeting with the mysterious Woman at Point Zero was a turning point and my favorite part, a moment where society's expectations clashed with the spirit of a person trying to break free. The Woman at Point Zero became Firdaus' confidante, a symbol of the free spirit society tried to hold back.

As Firdaus waited for her ex*****on, the story unfolded like a series of sad memories. El Saadawi's words were like a song of emotions, capturing the pain of lost dreams. Firdaus' bravery in the face of death reflected the bravery of every woman who challenged the way things were.

The desert, with its shifting sands, became a symbol of Firdaus' hard life. As the sun set, casting long shadows on prison walls, I felt the weight of Firdaus' choices, each grain of sand telling a story of strength.

As Firdaus faced the end, was a mix of emotions. El Saadawi's storytelling reached its peak, leaving me sad in the face of Firdaus' unyielding spirit. In that moment, Firdaus wasn't just a character; she became a symbol of standing strong against a world that tried to break her.

As the final words echoed in the vast emptiness of the Sahara, I closed the book with a mix of sadness and respect. "Woman at Point Zero" wasn't just a story; it was a deep dive into the human spirit's strong will to break free from oppression. Firdaus' legacy lingered like a sad melody, a reminder that even in the toughest times, the seeds of rebellion could find a way to grow.

*I WISH I COULD TURN BACK THE HANDS OF TIME.*

Have you ever uttered those words, whispered them into the quiet of the night when regrets come knocking? What moments in your life would you revisit if you could turn back the hands of time? Is it the chance not taken, the words left unsaid, or the paths untraveled that haunt your thoughts?

Do you ache to relive the embrace of a loved one you can only hold in your memories now?
Could turning back time erase the mistakes, the missteps, and the pain etched into your past? Would it grant you the wisdom to navigate life's challenges differently, to choose a different path, to be a different you? Or is the yearning to turn back time simply a testament to the human spirit's resilience, a way to acknowledge the journey that has shaped you?

Time is my greatest problem, a relentless foe that taunts my existence with each passing tick of the clock. Its ceaseless march through the corridors of my life leaves me in a state of perpetual unease. The hands of the clock mock me, turning moments into memories and dreams into dust. I long to grasp those fleeting seconds, to hold them close like precious gems, but they slip through my fingers like grains of sand.

The passing of time puts fear in me, for it reminds me of the irrevocable changes it brings. It steals away the people I love, leaving only the echoes of their laughter and the ache of their absence. It turns vibrant youth into weary age, eroding the vigor of body and mind. It transforms the world around me, making the familiar foreign and the future uncertain.

On the 22nd of December 2019, the world was still aglow with the anticipation of Christmas. It was a season of joy, a time when laughter filled the air, and the promise of togetherness lingered on every corner. But little did I know that this would soon turn into a tale of heartache and remorse.

Genevieve, my dearest friend and a sister of my heart, had reached out to me earlier that day. She had called, her voice carrying the warmth of friendship and an invitation to share in her world. She wanted me to visit, to bask in the holiday spirit with her, but in my complacency, I postponed it.

Days slipped away, and I kept telling myself that there would be time, that I could visit her later. After all, we had shared countless moments, and our bond was unbreakable, or so I thought. So, I delayed my visit, thinking that life would wait for my convenience.

Then came the 25th of December, a day that should have been filled with joy and celebration. I woke up with the intention of finally going to see Genevieve, to embrace her in a warm Christmas hug and exchange the heartfelt wishes we had always shared.

I picked up my phone, my fingers trembling with anticipation, and dialed her number. Once, twice, thrice... but there was no answer. My heart sank, and a gnawing sense of unease washed over me. I called again and again, praying that she would pick up, that her familiar voice would soothe my growing anxiety.

But it was her sister who finally answered. Her voice, heavy with grief, delivered the words I never expected to hear: "Genevieve is no more."

Time froze around me as her words pierced my heart like a dagger. I refused to believe it, insisted that it was some cruel joke. But the truth remained, merciless and unyielding. Genevieve, my cherished friend, had slipped away from this world, leaving behind a void that could never be filled.

I collapsed into a chair, tears streaming down my face like a river of sorrow. Regret flooded my soul, drowning me in the realization that I had taken her presence for granted, assuming that there would always be another day to share our lives.

In the silence of that Christmas morning, I mourned not only the loss of Genevieve but also the missed opportunities, the words left unsaid, and the moments left unshared. The regret weighed on me like an anchor, a heavy burden that I would carry for the rest of my days.

I wished I could turn back the hands of time, to that fateful 22nd of December, and rush to her side. But time, relentless and unforgiving, had robbed me of that chance forever. And in the midst of my sorrow, I learned the painful lesson that some opportunities, once lost, can never be reclaimed.

*INVISIBLE THREADS*

What is the tie that binds us close and near,
Through joy and sorrow, year after year?
A question of kinship, strong and clear,
In this family journey, what do we revere?

When troubles knock and sorrows appear,
Who's the one to chase away our fear?
What gives us strength when life's not clear?

What's the secret to our laughter's song,
When we gather, where do we all belong?
What keeps us close, our bond so strong,
As we navigate life's twists and turns along?

Who's the guiding star in times of strife,
That guides us through the storms of life?
In moments of darkness, who brings the light?
To help us weather and understand?

When tears flow freely, like a river's flow,
Who dries your eyes and lets the feelings show?
With compassion and grace, they show they care,
In their presence, you know love is rare.

In this world full of confusion and questions,
Where life throws us in different directions,
When you're lost, feeling low and blue,
Wondering what in the world you should do,
There's a love that'll always come through,
It's family, our eternal connection.

Imagine a world without families. A world where you have no one to turn to for comfort or support. A world where you don't know what love is, or how to give and receive it. This is a world without sacred families, and it's a terrifying prospect. Without families, we would be adrift in a sea of loneliness, struggling to find meaning and connection. We need families to give our lives purpose and to show us how to love. Without them, we are truly lost.

The big question here is: What makes a family? Is it just about blood ties, or is there something deeper that holds families together? And if so, what is it?

Family, for many, has long been associated with blood relations those who share our DNA. However, family goes beyond mere biology.

What if I told you that the traditional concept of family is being redefined? What if I told you that the boundaries of what constitutes a family are becoming more and more fluid, as society changes and evolves? What if I told you that what matters most in a family is not blood relations, but rather the bonds that are formed through shared experiences and mutual love?

There is more to family than just blood ties.
What truly defines a family today is the strength of the connections that tie its members together. It's the laughter and tears shared around the dinner table, the late night conversations, and the unwavering support during life's ups and downs. It's the sense of belonging, of knowing there are people who will stand by your side, no matter who they are related to by blood.

So, when we talk about family, let us remember that it's not limited to blood relations. Family is about the bonds we forge, the connections we nurture, and the love we share, regardless of genetics. It shows how deeply we can care for one another as human beings.

WHAT IS FAMILY TO YOU?

*THE HIDDEN COST OF WEALTH*

In the shadows of opulence, many have danced with the devil, trading their principles for the glitter of gold. Money, once a means to prosperity, has at times become the path to moral decay. Lives have been tainted, trust has been shattered, and souls have been tarnished in the relentless pursuit of wealth. It's a sobering reminder that while money can elevate, it can also cast a sinister veil, leading some astray on a treacherous journey.

In a world where money is the ruler of life the joy of both the rich and poor, the king to the kingdom of humans, the love of many.

In this world, many have sold their souls to the devil; women and men have committed unimaginable acts. Young girls forced onto paths they should never tread, becoming commodities, or worse, seen as mere objects of desire. Money has overshadowed our humanity and entrenched itself deeply, showing no signs of leaving.

Money, oh money, what a thing you are! You make hearts sing, beckoning with your charm, bringing power and joy to all. Kings turn to themselves in pursuit of you, leveling the rich and poor in your presence. You hold immeasurable power, and those who attain you rejoice.

"Money! Money! Money!" These words echo through our lives daily.

Our pursuit of wealth often entangles us in an endless race. We strive to earn more, amass more, and grip tightly to what we have. The desire for money can lead to choices laden with regret, sacrificing principles and values in its relentless pursuit.

But is money truly the measure of our human worth? Is it the sole determinant of our happiness and fulfillment? Yes and no.

Yes, money provides comfort and security, opening doors to opportunities and life's pleasures. It offers a sense of accomplishment and pride it is an essential tool.

No, money should not be the sole compass guiding our steps. It must not lead us to forsake our morals or exploit others. It should not blind us to life's deeper and more meaningful aspects.

Before me lies a snapshot a bundle of cash, neatly held by a money clip. A simple yet powerful image evoking a spectrum of thoughts and emotions.

Money, as depicted, symbolizes power, opportunity, and potential. It's the tangible fruit of hard work, innovation, and economic exchange, driving our modern world. Yet, money's story is multifaceted; it has a dark side.
Indeed, like a coin with two faces, money harbors darkness. It drives us to extremes, transforming us into unfamiliar beings. The pursuit of wealth become an unquenchable thirst, leading us to compromise our values.

Fathers take lives for a taste of you. Children betray parents for you. Siblings turn on each other to revel in luxury, and friends forsake bonds for you, money.

In this world where money reigns, remember we are more than the sums in our bank accounts. Treasure the bonds we share, the moments we create, and the kindness we show. Strive for a balance where money serves but doesn't enslave. In this world, don't forget our humanity amid the clamor of "Money! Money! Money!

*HAUNTING PRESENCE OF DEATH*

I was there when it happened. It was in my presence, in the dark hospital room with unwashed curtains, that it happened. First, it was her left eye, and then the right followed. I knew that the cold hands of death had come calling.

In the dimly lit room, the world seemed to shrink, focusing solely on the frail figure lying on the sterile hospital bed. Her name was Grace, and she was more than a patient; she was a beloved daughter, a cherished friend, and the light of many lives. As I stood by her side, helpless, I bore witness to a tragedy that would forever haunt my soul.

Grace's battle with an aggressive form of leukemia had been relentless, a cruel and unyielding adversary. Despite the hospital's best efforts, the disease had ravaged her body, leaving her weak and vulnerable. Her once-luminous eyes, which had sparkled with dreams and aspirations, had now clouded over with pain and despair.

The room, adorned with wilted flowers and the hushed whispers of nurses, felt like a chamber of sorrow. Machines beeped rhythmically, counting down the precious seconds of a life slipping away. Her family, gathered around her, clung to the faintest glimmer of hope, their faces etched with the agony of impending loss.

As the days turned into weeks, Grace's decline was inexorable. The vibrant young woman who had reveled in the simple joys of lifeโ€”the warmth of sunshine on her face, the laughter of friends, and the taste of her mother's home-cooked mealsโ€”was now confined to a world of white walls and antiseptic scents.

Her family and friends took turns sitting vigil by her bedside, their hearts heavy with the realization that they were losing her, piece by agonizing piece. They whispered their love and memories, hoping against hope that their voices could reach her, even as her eyes betrayed no flicker of recognition.

One evening, as I sat alone with Grace, she turned her gaze towards me, her once-bright eyes now faded and weary. In a voice barely above a whisper, she uttered words that will forever haunt me: "I'm scared."

I held her hand, trembling with grief, and whispered assurances of love and comfort, even as my own tears flowed freely. But in that moment, I knew that my words could not shield her from the inevitable. The cold hands of death had come, and there was no escape. Again she uttered: "Miss me a little, but let me go. I've come to the end of the road, and the sun is set for me to go as I fade away, hold our memories close"

On that night, filled with sorrow and silent tears, Grace drew her final breath. Her eyes, once windows to a world of dreams and possibilities, closed for the last time, sealing her fate in the shroud of eternity. The room, once heavy with anticipation, now hung with the crushing weight of loss. Death, that uninvited guest, had cast its heavy shadow over Grace's world. Its cold touch reminds us that life is not always twirled.
Oh! Death

*BENEATH THE SURFACE*

My skin is not as light as my siblings. I am ugly, my mother says that, and each time a pot is dirty, she calls me to wash it because it is as black as my skin.

Oh, the weight of sorrow upon my shoulders, a burden too heavy for one soul to bear. In the dark of night, I find myself ensnared. Each tear that falls carries the weight of a thousand unspoken words, the ache of countless unfulfilled dreams. I mourn the moments that slipped through my fingers like grains of sand, the promises unkept, the love once cherished but now lost in the abyss of time.

The echoes of laughter, once a melody in the chambers of my heart, now haunt me like a ghostly refrain. How cruel it is, the passage of days that turn joy into memories and memories into ghosts that visit in the silence of night. The death of my father brought change to our once lovely family.

In my family, my siblings and I were known for our differences. They had fair skin that glistened like the morning sun, while mine was a beautiful shade of dark brown thus I thought and believe. But to my mother's eyes, my skin was a source of disappointment, a reminder of what I lacked. Her words pierce through me, like shards of glass in the tender flesh of my soul. I yearn for a mother's love, and a mother's pride. But my reflection in her eyes is marred by the pigmentation of my skin, a mark that stains her pride.

As I got older, my mother's unhappiness with my appearance became more obvious. She kept saying that I wasn't as pretty as my siblings and pointed out all the things that were wrong with me. It felt like nothing I did could make her happy, and it made me feel really bad about myself.

At home, a pot wasn't just a kitchen tool; it became a reflection of my self-esteem, my daily chores became a constant reminder of my "black colour." I had to clean dirty pots and pans, and it felt like those things were like me - always getting dirty and needing to be cleaned.

Most times I couldn't help but think that maybe I'm a disappointment, my father who had always stood by me and speaks good of my skin is no more and I have to face the harsh words of my mother. My siblings, innocent in their laughter, unknowingly became accomplices to my torment. To them, it was all jest and play, but to me, it felt like a never-ending barrage of hurt.

Despite the persistent pain I felt, I was determined to rise above my mother's hurtful words and the societal judgments about my skin. I found solace in books, where I could escape into worlds where beauty was measured by the depth of character and the strength of one's spirit, not the world that cares about looks and beauty.

The weight of sorrow that once burdened my shoulders had transformed into a beacon of hope. My story, once one of pain and self-doubt, had evolved into a tale of triumph and transformation

*BOUND BY TRADITION*

In the heart of an expansive African village, where the golden sunsets painted the sky, a deeply rooted patriarchy held an unyielding grip on society. Men's voices echoed as the authoritative force, and women, despite their dreams, found themselves muffled by tradition

Chief Okechukwu, a towering figure with a voice that commanded obedience, embodied this patriarchal rule. His presence was imposing, and his words carried the weight of law. He was the unquestioned leader of the village, and nobody dared to challenge his authority.
Living among them was Adaeze, a young woman whose ebony skin seemed to absorb the village's shadows. Her eyes, once filled with hope, now harbored a timid uncertainty, and her movements spoke of a weight she bore in silence
Adaeze had always yearned for change, but fear kept her shackled. She knew that challenging the established order could invite severe consequences. Tradition was a relentless force, stifling the very words she longed to utter.
In secret, a clandestine group of women, all kindred spirits like Adaeze, gathered to share their dreams of equality. Their voices remained hushed, like secrets they dared not reveal, their hearts pounding in unity.

One fateful day, Adaeze found herself before Chief Okechukwu and the council of men. Her fear was palpable, her voice barely louder than a whisper. She attempted to convey the injustices suffered by women, but her words quivered, and her gaze remained fixed on the ground.
Initially, the council dismissed her,
their laughter a cruel echo. Adaeze's incapacity to stand up for herself, her voice barely reaching their ears, only fueled their scorn.
As time passed, Adaeze's fear remained a formidable barrier. She never found the strength to challenge the oppressive traditions, and the whispered hopes in the shadows could not muster the strength to bring about change.
Chief Okechukwu's dominance endured, and the village continued to dwell in the shadow of inequality. The story of "Bound by Tradition" served as a poignant reminder of how fear and tradition can combine to keep even the most fervent dreams of change at bay.

The village remained much the same, with Chief Okechukwu's rule unchallenged. Adaeze's courage, though it flickered like a candle in the wind, served as a reminder that change, even when stifled by fear, could not be extinguished entirely. The whispered hopes of Adaeze and her companions continued to echo in the village's quiet corners, waiting for the day when they would find the strength to speak loud enough to shatter the walls of tradition and bring forth the change they so desperately sought.

I am and have always been a people person a seeker of wisdom, a lover of stories, and a chatterbox at heart. Speaking to people, writing, reading, and soaking up the knowledge of those who've seen more sunsets than I have, these are my passions. Speaking to others is like breathing to me a natural, life sustaining act. It's where I come alive, where I thrive. But there's one thing I can't stand waiting in long lines. To me, it feels like time wasted, minutes slipping away in agonizing slowness.
One hot afternoon I found myself at the dreaded Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), surrounded by a sea of impatient faces. As I took my place in line, I couldn't help but sigh. Little did I know that this mundane annoyance would lead to an unexpected adventure. I struck up a conversation with the elderly gentleman in front of me, Mr. Johnson. With his silver hair and a twinkle in his eye, he looked like a character from a classic novel. We began chatting about our lives, and I soon discovered he had a treasure trove of stories. As we waited, Mr. Johnson shared tales of his youth, of adventures in a bygone era when life moved at a slower pace. He spoke of handwritten letters and rotary phones, of simplicity and genuine connections. Listening to him, I realized that my impatience had blinded me to the wisdom that comes with age. Our conversation deepened, and I found myself sharing my love for writing and reading. Mr. Johnson's eyes lit up, and he recited a poem he had penned in his youth. It was a moment of pure magic, a bridge between generations through the power of words. When my turn finally came at the DMV counter, I felt a pang of sadness knowing our conversation had to end. But as I left with my renewed driver's license, I carried with me something far more valuable a newfound appreciation for the art of patience and the beauty of connecting with those who are older and wiser. In the end, that day at the DMV turned out to be anything but dull. It was a reminder that even in the most mundane of places, unexpected treasures can be found. My love for speaking to people had led me to Mr. Johnson and together, we had turned a frustrating wait into a captivating story of intergenerational connection and the simple joys of life.

Life is an intricate tapestry woven with moments both grand and subtle, each adding its unique hue to the canvas of existence. It's a journey filled with twists, turns, and surprises that unveil the extraordinary in the ordinary. The beauty of life lies in its diversity โ€“ the myriad of experiences, emotions, and connections that shape our days.

From the delicate whisper of a breeze to the resplendent colors of a sunset, nature's symphony beckons us to pause and marvel. Likewise, the tapestry of human interactions, from fleeting smiles shared with strangers to deep bonds forged over time, reflects the depth of our shared humanity.

In the ebb and flow of life's challenges and triumphs, there's a remarkable resilience that surfaces. The ability to overcome obstacles, learn from failures, and celebrate victories speaks to the profound strength within each individual. Through every stumble, we gather wisdom; through every success, we find affirmation.

Yet, the true essence of life's beauty lies in its impermanence. The fleeting nature of time adds a poignant richness to every moment. It reminds us to savor the present, to embrace change, and to find solace in the rhythm of life's cycles.

As the sun rises and sets, painting the sky with its hues, so too do our lives evolve in a continuous dance. The beauty of life lies not only in its grand spectacles, but also in the mundane routines that ground us and in the quiet moments that allow us to reflect and connect with our inner selves.
In essence, life's beauty is an ever-changing mosaic of experiences, emotions, connections, and lessons. It's a canvas that we, as individuals, have the privilege to paint with our unique strokes. Embracing life's intricacies and finding beauty in its diverse expressions is a testament to our capacity for wonder, gratitude, and the unending pursuit of meaning.
