Over before it even started
Emotions are running wild,
Depressive tendencies trying to get the better of me
I have been here before and I know I will ride this out somehow
It’s just a matter of time

Lots of questions running through my mind though;
 Was I really so insensitive to her feelings?
Were these times we shared just a game?
Did she really love me like she professed or was I just so gullible and naive, blind to her true intentions?
Did we change gears too fast?

I don’t know any other way to love though
With me there are no half measures
I feel the attraction and move in to make the connection 
‘Full stop Ninja’ that I am, cutting to the chase from the get go

Is there still someone out there to accept me as I am?
I thought I had finally found acceptance and true understanding
But it looks like I built me a house of cards
I just hate the way the cookie crumbles leaving a bitter taste in the mouth
Still feels like a dream and I can’t believe its over before it even started


I still don’t know what to make of this; a game? A scam?
I am so tired of this heaviness and despondency
The backwash of a love story gone south
Wetin man go do now?

Change? Yeah, most def, there are things to change
Its time to learn from the Yoruba parable of the thunder
A big sigh escapes my lips
It’s that feeling of misery again
Life would have been so bearable without it...

Tourism in Nigeria

A View from one of the stations of Olumo Rock In the year 1914, a new nation-state was born. It was a product of an amalgamation of the Southern and Northern Protectorates made up of territories that were previously ruled by empires, kingdoms, dynasties and strong knit familial communities. That union was renamed the colony called Nigeria, and mid-wifed by Sir Frederick Lugard. Though British Rule continued from that historic moment for almost fifty years, the nation eventually rode on the agitations for self-rule by nationalists movements of the time, to independence in 1960.    The amalgamation, one of the hallmarks of Nigerian history, was beyond the signing of a document that unified the two protectorates. It sought to give many people of diverse cultures, language, dialects, religions and norms, a singular identity; the Nigerian identity that would be strong in diversity.  Though it was also the harbinger of many experiences for Nigeria, one of the...
