I won't let you people gaslight me into thinking intellectual mismatch is not a thing in romantic relationships. It is not even about formal degrees or booksmarts. It shows up in things like curiousity, conversational depth, imagination, openness, and worldviews.

I have an intense dislike for those Nigerians who move overseas and instantly begin to bombard the entire internet with videos of “How to move to country X” or “How you are wasting your life in your country and need to move to country X”, or some other variant.

Anywhere I see pictures of my very imperfect but beloved city, I will share. I still dream of the day Onitsha would finally look like what it is supposed to look like.

Interesting viewpoint from Obinna Udenwe Obinna Udenwe. It is true that the NLNG has given "so much money" to Nigerian literature, but to what purpose? Since 2004, I estimate that the NLNG has spent at least 20 million US dollars on the prize, however only 10 percent of it has

I mean, a simple version of the idea of love looks good for the mainstream screen, but love in real life is a far more complex, complicated, and twisted thing. In a way, it can only really make sense in the moments, not beyond.

Tough times mean Lolwe can’t pay writers (for now), but their work remains necessary. Read Lolwe. Share Lolwe. Support Lolwe (if you can).

I'm looking for a younger critic in the ranks of Ancci to write an 800-word critique "on the sense of Speculative poetry," as especially written by new Nigerian poets. If you write this, you'd also be required to appear on Afapinen's next Panoptic Sessions later this month. 1/2

I’ve been tense all night. Anxieties. Panic. So the first thing I did this morning when I woke up was to dance. I put on some Congolese numbers and danced. I think mind-muscle connection works well in dance; you can dance better if you close your eyes and visualise the steps.

In addition to my comment, I feel the need to encourage you with a piece of info I barely share on this space. The story of my mine that was accepted 2 months ago by a top journal was written 10 years ago (first draft). Now, calculate the rejections. Just keep at it, brother.
