I Found Him

On the 31st of December last year, I did a post about how I found you guys, my blogging family, you made my 2012.

This year I found someone bigger and greater, I found God.

I'm a born, baptised and confirmed Catholic so I can say I have known God all my life but year 2013 was a different experience with Him.

Survivor is what I call myself. I always say, "I can survive any situation" with God but truthfully then, I never really felt God. I just knew he was there, I was one of all those sha-sha people that usually say "God dey" just so far we done talk am.

This year 2013, I had a divine encounter with God. I felt his essence in my life. He is not just there, he lives in us.

At the beginning of the year, I went through a difficult phase, I think it's the most difficult phase I have ever experienced and I asked God the forbidden WHY question. I asked Him, "WHY you would do this to me?"

One particular sunday after Mass, I knelt at the altar in front of the Blessed Sacrament and I cried(I hardly cry, that one of my body function I don't understand. I don't tear up easily like others).

But this day I cried and asked for his help. From then on, it became a different story. I began to move to greater heights, in ways you can't imagine. Trivial things brought great results. It just kept on getting better for me from then on.

I felt the Essence of God. I know He is there and the drastic turn around in my life made 2013 a great year not just for me but for my family. Each member of my family has a great testimony to tell.

What more can I say than Oghene Doo! Osolobruvwe Wekobi ro! God I thank You!

Relax, I'm not throwing my jeweries, hairs and trousers away for puff hand blouses to form Depper Life Spirikoko. I'm still myself; playful WAG acknowledging the presence of God.

INFO OF THE DAY: December 31, 1879
Let there be light! On New Year's Eve 1879, Thomas Edison gives a public showing of his new invention, the electric incandescent lamp. The world has never been the same since.

May our light shine into the new year. 2014, Let's Go There!

How Silly Can A Man Be?

I took a stroll and decided to put a call across to someone special. While making the call, a Toyota Odyssey parked in front of me.

I continued walking down the pavement and as I walked towards the car, I saw the passenger side glass go down. I walked passed the car. The driver started horning but I kept on walking.

Obobe! The horn went on continuously and it was so loud like a fire alarm. Me, WAG I still kept strolling on.

What do you expect? I should stop and walk towards the car? Hell NO! If the guy wanted to talk to me, courtesy demanded he parked his car properly and walk up to me not him horning and me running towards the car like one mumu and he feels like one mega star. NO! I'm better than that.

I continued having a good time on the phone, I don even forget the car when suddenly the car pulled up to me and the guy shouted "FOOL"

I was amazed and I looked around to see the guys behind me laughing.
They said, "see Ekpa(fool in urhobo) dey call person fool". Omo babe you fall the guy hand. E pain am!"

Like seriously, how silly can a man be? Maybe that one get wife when dey wait for am for house and he dey road dey misbehave. Kai!

I really had a good laugh sha, thanks to the *Tupangar's behaviour. You know they say there is a reason for every thing, so I take this as a reason for me to blog this night. Indirectly, the Tupangar affected me positively because I dey nack the gist now #aprokotinz#

INFO OF THE DAY: TUPANGAR
A slang in Warri for someone who behaves silly or weird. This is different from mad or kolo. It can be defined as a name for a normal person who behaves abnormally in a normal situation. Inadequate use of common sense can also be linked to 'Tupangar'

A new slangs to your vocabulary guys, thanks to me ;)

A Shocker From Timaya

How many of you have heard Timaya's song titled "Sex Tape"? If you haven't, stop here...download the song, then come back to read the post.

I'm sure you were as shocked as I was when I heard the song. Like seriously?! Singing with all those words, well... "2mins man" and the rest.

I swear Timaya gave me a shocker with that song. The first time I heard about the song was from my friend Powei. I just saw "Timaya's Sex Tape" on her pm and I was like "Shooo! Timaya don turn Kim K when dey do ST, Nigerians sha! We like copy-copy."

She laughed and told me it was a song but e dey equivalent to Kim K own and she sent me the song.

When I listened to it, my ears almost exploded. Not all American artist can be bold to sing with those words Timaya used. I'm like, omo men! Timaya bold sha o, to sing this song. Funny enough the song is interesting, I won't lie. The beat and the flow of the lyrics to the beat is nice. If you didn't actually listen to the words at first you would say the song is nice.

Timaya has raised the bar for explicit lyrics for Nigerian artists. Hope they won't go and actually do a Sex Tape video one day o! Biko they shouldn't try it.

INFO OF THE DAY: Facts About Timaya
Timaya was a back-up singer for Eedris.
His other name The Egberi Papa 1 of Bayelsa means "The Peoples Town Crier"

So Timaya has blown our ears with this particular song but please I advise, always listen to this song with an ear piece...just in case your father is listening.

Stay Sharp,

Post For Malcolm

I should have done this post since but I couldn't due to my tight schedule.

Malcolm is my protege; the guy I taught how to blog. I did a post about him last year titled "Pay It Forward".

I still think back to when we got connected a year ago and he asked me questions about blogging. The first thing I asked him was what he wanted to blog about. I asked this because I wanted to teach someone that has a passion for writing/blogging, not someone who wanted to go into it because everyone does it or be a gossip blogger who copies and pastes gists a day after from Linda Ikeji(respect to the blogging Queen).

Gee(my teacher/ my Gift from Google), taught me because he saw I had a unique blog niche and so I wanted whoever I thought to be unique as well.

Malcolm is not just good, he is 100% unique and I'm proud of his write ups. Now I'm not just proud of his write ups, I'm proud of him and proud of myself because his blog got nominated for 'Nigerian Blog Awards 2013'!

His consistency since the day he started has been great. I was supposed to blog so we could vote for him but I was unable to which I feel sad about.

Malcolm didn't win but I'm happy he got this far.



To Malcolm, I love your write ups and you inspire me. Any time I see your link, I smile and say to myself so from 'Life of a Warri Girl' I have been able to impact someone else's life.
Somedays the traffic might be huge sometimes it might be low but just keep on writing, keep the fire burning and the sky is our limit.

Oooh! To the gist part, Guess what! You know I didn't know Malcolm until we connected online about blogging. His best friend happens to be a good friend/colleague of mine. This world na real small place.

To read Malcolm's write ups go to
Malcolm's Blog at www.saymalcolm.wordpress.com
 
Or

Malcolm The Storyteller at
www.malcolmthestoryteller.blogspot.com

See he has two blogs, like the Bible verse 'go ye and multiply'. My descendants are multiplying. Maybe the person Malcolm would teach would have four blogs. By then, I would be a blog grandmother,*winks*

Girl Code

There are some unwritten solidified girl's code and I'm going to talk about the main one.

The first one is the Girl Code Section 1(1) which states that on no condition, with or without your notice should your friend date your boyfriend.

Now this code is one that shouldn't be argued. It's straight to the point, na your boyfriend so make your friends stay clear. It's not a friendly polygamous relationship. Although we still get some girls that break this law and most of the time it results in huge penalties such as swollen eyes and acid burnt skin. Girls beware just abide by the above law of Girl hood and you and your besti would be fine.

The 2nd law in the Girl's constitution which is presently under review is;

Girl Code Section 1(2) which states that a girl's friend cannot date her ex-boyfriend.

Normally, this code has somehow been at the back of every girl's head. Not like your friend would kill you if you date her ex but we just feel it's a line not to be crossed.

By the power vested in me by myself as the Omote Kpako 1 of Warri; I, WAG the kpokish 1 has decided to take this code under review because of my friend DarkDiva.

DarkDiva has been pulling some stunts lately. She has been match making her friends with her exes. She is the first girl I know that openly says, she doesn't mind if her friend dates her ex. If it works out for them she would be happy, inshort one of her ex and friend have gotten married. Darkdiva was present wella in the wedding and even gave the toast.

Girls, what do you think? Should this unspoken code be reviewed.
WOULD YOU BE OK WITH YOUR FRIEND DATING YOUR EX?

I used "would you be ok" and not "would you allow" which I wanted to use initially but I changed my mind because if they mean to date, plus you minus you they would still date. The only thing is you would be distant from your friend.

So what do you ladies think. Is it ok for your friend to date your ex? And how would you feel?

INFO OF THE DAY: Uncoupling Theory
In 1976, sociologist Diane Vaughan proposed an "uncoupling theory," where there exists a "turning point" in the dynamics of relationship breakup - 'a precise moment when they "knew the relationship was over," when "everything went dead inside"' - followed by a transition period in which one partner unconsciously knows the relationship is going to end, but holds on to it for an extended period, even for years.

Never knew there was a theory like this until today. It is good to know that nor be only physics, chemistry and biology get theories, relationship get theory too.

Once Again, It's Christmas

Merry Christmas WAG readers.

It's another year, another season of Christmas. Thanks be to God for making us see this day.

Ladies, yesterday I said today's post would be a question for you but I have decided to shift it to tomorrow. This I did so today would be focused on the birth of Jesu Christi (Jesus Christ in Urhobo), the Oshare 1 of the whole world, the King of Kings. So let's celebrate Jesus.

My yellow rabbit friend/makeup artist guru, Angel William put this on her status, "Merry Christmas everyone. It's CHRISTmas not Xmas, Jesus Christ is the reason for the season not your ex".

I saw this and laughed. I have read about different controversy concerning Christmas, like the Deeper Life General Overseer saying Christmas is Idolatrous but never have I seen someone talk about the word 'Christmas' and not 'Xmas' until Angel nack am yesterday.

Angela point seen! but I think the heart is what matters, as long as its sincere and pure the meaning is the same.

Our Christmas breakfast is ready, fried rice, chicken&salad (core course), pepper soup and some liquids. I wan go wack(eat) but before I go I would leave you with the advice I gave last year.

'Awuf dey run belle', this one when food brekete down for everywhere so, abeg eat with sense, make you nor go purge but if you must over eat make belle burst carry tetracyclin for pocket as back up.

Birthday Wishes: Happy birthday to Decn(Mrs). Christy Ejenavi and all the WAG readers born on the 25th of December, I wish you many more blissful years ahead.

INFO OF THE DAY: Rudolph's Nose
Norwegian scientists have hypothesized that Rudolph's red nose is probably the result of a parasitic infection of his respiratory system.

Oyibo people sha, there is nothing they don't study. If you don't know Rudolph the red nose reindeer then your kpako level is high, lol.

Once again, Merry Christmas my darlings and I wish you all a prosperous new year.

Guys Do You Get Alert?

Yesterday, I forgot to declare the season of celebration, waka and fun open. My fun started yesterday, I went to chill with friends I haven't seen for months and as usual they were a source of gist.

We talked about guys and girls, exs and presents. From the gist I had ideas for two different post, one for guys the other for girls.

So today, my darling WAG guys I have a question for you.

DO YOU GET AN ALERT WHEN YOU GO DOWN THERE?

The question above is deduced from the store of various gists where I have heard different girls say their boyfriends would know if they cheat.

I'm totally against cheating, if you have one partner please try to be faithful it's all part of the 'Playing Safe' campaign and the defence against broken hearts. If you are tired, break-up and move on. Don't double date and hurt people.

So back to the question, guys how would you know? Do you get alert when you go down there to know that someone has trespassed?

My friend said her boyfriend specifically said he would know immediately he goes in, so he is warning her down not to try anything.

Please you guys should answer me o. Do you hear a tun-tun beep, saying "hey dude, this account has been accessed by another dude"? Don't mind me o, I'm just curious WAG wanting to know.

INFO OF THE DAY : Interesting STDs Fact
A Brazilian Web site lets people send their partners e-cards informing them they have an STD and that they should see a doctor.

Hmmmmm, that website is something else o, I doubt a site like that can work in Nigeria. Nobody go update, lol.

Ladies, it's going to be your topic tomorrow.

Stay Sharp,

DarkDiva, Road Trip and Suitors

Wafgidi Noni. I dey Warri.

I came in yesterday and I have to narrate the experience because something stood out for me, the thought of suitor/boyfriend/toaster.

At 7am, I was at the park to get a ticket and a bus. If you are wondering why I didn’t fly, it’s because I weighed my pocket Arik is the only airline that goes to Warri from Abuja and they don’t have weekend flights, FULLSTOP

I had some calls before the bus moved and the 1st friend I talked to asked, “what kind of people were in the bus, old or young? I didn’t see the need for the question but I just sha answer am say na young peeps.

Friend number 2 said, “any fine guy for the bus? You know say you be fine girl o! make they nor over toast you so just squeeze your face like deeper life”. I laughed and replied, “toasting is allowed, greeing is what you take under consideration”. Then my friend said, “sharp babe you know say Lokoja(the stop along the way where lots of stuffs are sold) dey front why you nor go talk say toasting is allowed”. lol

These two questions got me thinking, then it dawned on me. One wise person that I don’t know originated the quote “you can meet your future husband any where”. So that was it. My friends wanted to know if there were prospects in the bus. No prospects but I made some female friends, it was a very long trip and one thing with long trips is that you find yourself gisting with your fellow passengers which is fun.

I love traveling a lot whether by air, land or maybe someday sea but the best form of traveling is traveling with friends or family even if na the same okada two of una enter it’s still fun.

My best road trip is my previous trip back to Abuja with my senior friend/sister, Onome my DarkDiva. I, Onome, and another friend of ours, Onos were seated at the back of the Sienna vehicle. In front of us was a couple then the front-front part, a lady in the passenger seat and the driver.

Whenever you have girls, you have a constant G, where G = Gist. We gisted nor be small. From how there is an alleged crime of girls been drugged, one of their kidneys stolen and abandon in a hospital#kidneygiststillunderconfirmation# to how our mumsy prepare us to be suitor ready/wife material with house chores e.g pounding of banga.

Somewhere along the line, the couple joined in the discussion and they gave us their own gist about how they met, the husband was the guy all the girls flocked around, she was the sharp patient girlfriend turn wife and today they are still kicking it strong celebrating 20 years of marriage. They also gave us some suitor advice and some other advice like don’t bleach, play safe etc… The husband was a doctor so these were gidigba(strong) advice backed up with facts.

The most amazing part of this trip was watching the couple play love in Tokyo. The wife said “honey please massage my feet” and stretched out her legs for him. The husband obliged and said “this is why I paid for the whole middle seats, I really wanted her to be comfortable”. I, Onome and Onos were like “awww……see love o”.

Still on the trip, they gave us another love act.
Hubby: “You know even with all those many girlfriends back then, it’s been you I loved and always wanted to marry”
Wife: “I know but now you don’t say it often”.
Wife to Us: “I don’t know why he doesn’t say it o. My husband believes that I already know so there is no need for it to be said”
Hubby: “Ok, I LOVE YOU” (shey you see the way I typed I love you in caps na because the guy really emphasized it)
Us, 3 ladies of the backseat : Screaming! Shouting! Hailing!

That’s the way this couple were giving us scenes from their love movie then we had a flat tire so it had to be changed. When the change was done, I was struggling to open the door to enter and the hubby came up to me, “No!!! you are a lady don’t do that, please let me open the door for you”

Us, 3 ladies of the backseat : Screaming! Shouting! “Dr. B, please do you have a brother?”.

Yes o, we asked. The Statistic Department of Relation Gist Institute states that ‘the number of guys of this generation that open door for ladies is close to minus zero point something (-0….)’, so were amazed and just had to ask.

My eyes didn’t blink at all, as in sleep didn’t come knocking through out the trip.

In the spirit of BBM update, we took some pictures for DP before the journey began


Since it was an early mor-mor trip, I just packed my hair with no makeup ready to hit the road but Photographer Onos say make I free my hair say this simple look nor enter for Dp o.

So I let my hair lose


we shared a joke

and finally found the Perfect DP



I have been doing DarkDiva since, I think I should give you guys our brief history. I met her when I was 5years old, my family moved to the neighborhood and she gave me coconut candy since then I have been stuck on love with her. I’m still suspecting that she jazzed that candy o because I love her bad and she is older than me well but we have a strong bond and again she was my brother’s would I say first love*thinking* she was my brother’s ex girlfriend from secondary school.

That time there was no GSM. Na me be the GSM, na me they go send go call her, na me go call with landline say I want to talk to Onome and hand the phone over to my bro when she answers all this was so that her parents nor go code. Everybody still coded at the end even my parents sef.

Some years later, the love ended and the fact that there was no disconnection or anything was really good, our relationship wasn’t affected. We are still close, she and my brother they are like BFF. I tell both of them that it would make sense if they marry, they would say “abeg e, we know ourselves we are good as close friends”.

I just like their combo sha but whether they marry or nor marry themselves it’s non of my business na my own marriage go be my business and they would both remain my brother and sister in whom I love so much.

  
This picture was taken some 4-5years ago and that’s still like 5years after their breakup. I like this particular pic, I don’t know why. Whether it’s because of Onome’s smile or the back of my brother’s head, dunno #confused#

I have put up my bro before on the blog, somewhere in the post ‘The Match Story’, if you want to see him click HERE

Ok, now I sign off and run away because two friends are going to kill me, hahahahahaha.

Stay Sharp,
Warri Girl.

ENGAGED!!!

Hey Wag Readers, long time no see. Wetin dey sup?

All Ye dying of curiosity, wondering whether I have left the single land. Cool down, you would get to know at the end of this post. No rush scroll go down o, make sure u read everything tinini-tenene(small small) to get the whole jege(gist).

So Wag readers, follow me as I tell you a picture story.

Meet Emokiniovo Mume



In those Abraka days I knew Ovo as a serious hustler. The babe dey hustle to sell weavons and attachment on top okada den, omo story don change o. My girl don big up from weavons to CEO of Ovo’s Plus Limited.

And also from Okada tinz to Nissan Versa,



then to Mercedes Benz C-Class.



The babe dey vex!

So Ovo did well for herself and she never forgot what it was like to be down financially so she made sure she gave back to the society through charity.



Now the Action part of the gist, GHEN-GHEN #beatingband#

Sometime last year, Ovo experienced every girl’s nightmare. She got heartbroken. She decided to start life afresh by calling on Baba God and praying with these words “send me my destined husband and may he never find peace until he finds me”. Oh lala!………this na burning prayer point o, prayer to unleash the fire on her Mr. Right, lol

One morning she stepped out looking just there, without makeup and a casual outfit, to get a phone.

To cut long tory short, as she dey buy the phone naim she jam one guy, Engr. Darlington Akporugo, with her unkempt look, he got attracted to her and after almost a year (6 months of hard toasting from Darlington due to Ovo’s shakara and 4month+ of sweet romance), he popped the question on Saturday evening.

PROPOSAL: How e take happen?
 
Ovo and Darlington had an argument and she was giving him the cold shoulder. He walked up to her and said these words, “Please Ovo marry me”. My babe still lockup, face her Blackberry nor bother even remove her face from the phone. Naim the guy said, “I would take back my ring o”, Ovo said she quickly raised up her head and saw this……………..



on the bed. She rushed for it and Darlington said “there is nothing inside the box. It is empty, I just wanted to get your attention”. This is what me WAG call hot bunching, this kain thing can pain. Ovo increased her anger from 90degree to 360degree, she start to dey boil abi steam.

The next thing she saw was Darlington on the floor saying the dream words of every girl including me, “Please make me the happiest man on earth, marry me” and he opened the box……..






She screamed “JESUS” and said yes.



After this came engagement party on Sunday at Wellington Hotel, Warri with family and friends who were already aware of the proposal.

So in my kind aproko sharing self, I have decided to share some pictures with you guys. Happy viewing and don’t forget to drop your comments.



Enroute Engagement Party



Party Time #ringflaunting#





















Congrats Ovo and Darlington, I’m happy for you guys.

Love is sweet joor. I have love around me, my closest friend got engaged 3weeks ago and she beg me/drag ear for me to make sure I nor blog about her. I just dey form good friend for the now, una trust me na my aproko ginger would make me go against her warning, I would wait till when she is extremly busy with wedding plans before I post her pics atleast then the vex go small #stubbornmewinking#

N.B: Ladies, in the search for Mr.Right please avoid kpomor faces, avoid guys who HIT. Once you see a guy exhibiting this nasty character, please dust your slippers and tukele(run) before he beats you to the point of no return.

Stay Sharp,
Warri Girl.

Smoking, My Weird Pleasure

I hold my phone waiting for it to ring with a call from my mother because I know say as some world people don see this title "Smoking my weird pleasure" dey go rush call her say, "Mumsy WAG, WAG don dey smoke o!", lol.

Be patient guys, read through and know why I call it my pleasure. I don't smoke, I have never had the guts to try it, I guess because of my good moral upbringing and the many talks of 'Smokers are liable to die young'. Like I said, I don't smoke but I'm a secondary smoker. I think most people are secondary smokers.

You become a secondary smoker when you are around someone who smokes and you inhale the fumes abi the cigarette's scent/odour/smell, anyone you chose to call it.

So why is it my weird pleasure? Unlike most people that frown at hanging out with someone who smokes, I'm actually indifferent about it. Inshort I take pleasure in it. I like to perceive the scent of cigarette especially in an AC tight place. There is this nice scent/feeling I get anytime I perceive it.

You know why the thing is weird. I don't smoke, neither would I like my future husband to smoke but I like been around smokers. Like if I go to the club and come back, I go just dey perceive the whole cigar smell for my clothes(I nor know whether una get wetin I dey talk?).

The way I like the scent of cigar na something when dey still dey baffle me.
Sotay, I don know how fake Benson cigar dey smell. Benson sha, to me happens to have the coolest scent of all the cigarettes. Dunhill Switch is equally nice. I heard Marlboro is another nice one but for the big boys, from what I know it's the number one cigarette worldwide and quite scarce and more expensive than other cigarettes in 9ja.

There is this particular male friend of mine, every time I hang out with him, I would be begging him, "Please smoke na". My friend go just laugh and say, I be big kolo o! I nor dey pity am or think about he lungs". Me I go say, "abeg e, plus me minus me, you go still smoke, so nor form saint now because I dey beg you".

I don't just know why I love the scent of cigarettes. It's just something weird that I like. I'm not sure I'm the only one that likes it because all those runz girls when dey follow white men go still like am since most whiteys are always smoking inside AC and that is the perfect place to enjoy the cigarette scent.

I just remembered sef, one of my friends, my closet paddy like am too. She refuses to wash her clothes immediately after clubbing, just enjoying the smell of cigar+alcohol+sweat. Indeed they say birds of the same feather flock together, lol.

INFO OF THE DAY: Cigarettes and Dry Drunkenness.
The term "smoking" wasn't established until the late seventeenth century. Before then, it was often referred to as "Dry Drunkenness".
Cigarettes are the most traded item in the world.

Too much of everything is bad. Just the way I tell people to know their alcohol limit and drink to where their body fit carry them, that's the same advise I give for cigarettes even as I love the scent because;
The Federal Ministry of Health warns that smokers are liable to die young.

So whether wet or dry drunkenness, high with sense.

Stay Sharp,
Warri Girl.

The Tattoo Love Story

Once upon a time, two of my friends fell in love. The love was good and the earth shook beneath their love.

Omo, it was a love to be called love. The love high both of them like alcohol combined with codeine -for catarrh. When I mean high, I mean HIGH but I can say that the guy's love was far higher than the girl's own and you know say na all this kain love naim girls dey like, wen the boy kolo finish for the girl. Na so e suppose be joor, na man suppose love pass woman.

So high was the guy's love for his girlfriend that he tattooed her name boldly on his left hand, from his elbow to his wrist was her name. Oh, and the tattoo was a permanent one.

Then the love went sour. The relationship ended due to irreconcilable differences and the guy was stuck forever after with the tattoo :(

THE END.

Dear WAG readers, if you were the guy what would you do?
Love makes us do a lot of things. Even before the rise of social media, guys and girls have been combining their names to form a nickname they use among their peers. What I have to say is this, 'If you like it, then you should put a ring on it'. Seal the deal once and for all.

I dey try put myself for the guy shoe, omo na iron sponge I for go use take scrub my skin or tattoo another thing on top the girl name make the hand just turn jaga-jaga forever.

Anyway, they have moved on. Life goes on. When I asked the guy personally as a brother how he feels waking up every morning to that on his hand, he gave me a very matured reply which I liked.

The guy's reply: I can't hate myself for someone I loved; I don't have regrets #smiling# the only regret I have is the regret that I don't have regrets.
When I see d tattoo, I don't think of her as the person who destroyed my life or anything, I only think of the notion that I once loved someone and I had to put her name on me.

Hmmmmm....matters of the heart. Who nor go nor know, love matter is something else. We each just have to pray that we find someone who is truly deserving and worthy of our love.

INFO OF THE DAY: Urine and Tattoo
Urine was sometimes used to mix tattoo color. Prison tattoo artists use materials such as CD player motors, springs, pens and soot (among other found materials) to create tools and inks for tattooing fellow inmates. In some Russian prisons, they make ink with melted boot heels mixed with urine or blood.

Kai! Urine! I hope the urine is that of the person who is getting the tattoo and not urine of the tattoo artist cos I can't imagine someone else's urine in my skin.

Trouser Matter

While having a conversation with someone, I mentioned how I attended evening mass straight from work and the person was like "don't tell me you wore trouser from work to church".

I replied "Yes I did" and he said I just committed a sin. WAG readers o, see me see judgment. The honorable judge said wearing of trouser is a big sin, even on a normal day it's a sin talkless of to church.

So people still dey carry this trouser matter for head. I can't still understand it. I'm a field person, always on the move so trouser and T-shirt is a sure thing for me in order for me to be smart and do my God given job. Naim person open mouth yakata say I dey commit sin. Na wa o.

Suppose say na bra and pant or bra- top and trouser naim I say I wear go church and the person call me sinner I for fit understand am small but T-shirt and jeans, a big NO.

By the way self, who made some know-know people God? Who gave them the right to judge and call other people sinners. Salvation is personal and its the pureness of the heart that matters. If you like wear 8yards of skirt, tie your head and ears with 4yards of turban and you have a heart as black as charcoal and as thick as Kota(tar), you would still face the Almighty Father on judgment day.

Ehen, this reminds me. I hear say e get one CD wen dey reign for Warri now. I think the title is 'Back From Hell'. I haven't listened to it but the gist wen nack my ear say na about one woman who supposedly died, went to hell and came back to life to share the tales. Now dey say almost all the women for Igbudu market don turn Deppo o! As par low cut and big skirt tinz.

Like I said before, 'Salvation is personal'. Everybody answer e own name. We each have our own personal relationship with God. Me, WAG, I make sure I hail Baba God on a daily basis asking for forgiveness of sin and His abundant Grace.

So my people, I leave you with this song.
♪♫ If you do good....Kingdom! Oh oh oh! Kingdom, Oh oh oh oh! Kingdom waiting....for you ♪♫
♪♫ If you do bad....No more Kingdom! Oh oh oh! No more Kingdom, Oh oh oh oh! No more Kingdom waiting for you ♪♫

INFO OF THE DAY: Some Historic Fact About Trouser(Pants).
In Asia both women and men have long worn pants for warmth, comfort, and convenience.
In Rome and Greece women and men wore tunics.
In the fourth century, women in the Western world wore pants, which they adapted from the Persians. At that time, pants were considered unmanly.

So going by this info, e clear say there is no definite law which states that trousers are meant for men only. And since our oga's at the top are all about moving motions, I wait for the day when the motion, for making NYSC khaki skirt for female corpers and overall skirt with safety boot for female engineers, is to be moved.

Warri In My Veins

Hmmmmmm.......

For days now, I have been staring at my screen reasoning the first word to type.

"How do I come back to blogging?", I asked myself. Its been a while, "Do I still have it in me to blog?". Then some five minutes ago I decided, YES. I still have it in me. I be WAG nothing can change that. Whatever I write, I still remain WAG because it's better to come and blog now than not to blog at all. As my area people go call am, 'At all,At all, na Winch'.

So Kpokishious WAG is here.

What have I been up to all these months? Many gbogboyen up and doing tinz. Picked up some new words like 'Kaiya, Akponkre and Tupangar', these I would explain as the blog goes on.

Omo to find money nor be beans o. My parents really try to train me(Daddy,Mummy, MIGWO!).
Na now wen I don start to dey hustle naim I know why couples of this our generation dey say dey want a small family. Nor be say dey nor get the ear to listen to noise of many children but dey nor wan hook for throat when school fees matter show.

Now when I don turn semi gbogbo bigs gal as par footing my bills personally by myself, na now I understand the statement when say "Money nor easy". Na spending with sense things I dey do so. Nor be say I nor dey flex myself o, I must to flex myself afterall na me work for my money but at this stage, the flexing na with sense. I flex, I calculate. But I must still flex even with the tight work schedule because At All,At All naim bad pass.

I don see many things for this ABJ sha. I go dey share dem with una twele-twele as the blog ministry goes on. Let me just give you guys one particular small experience which still makes me laugh anytime I recall it.

I got home from work one fateful day and there was no light. Me I just lockup and reassured myself that power would be restored later at night. Na when heat+mosquito come dey show me strong thing for night naim I know say the mara don pass be careful because its an unlikely situation in my estate not to have light over night.

Sharpadly the next morning I asked around to know what the problem was and someone said our transformer got burnt abi e blow? Sha-sha transformer don spoil.
I said "Ye! and I haven't pumped water". I didn't have water in the house. Omo come see your girl dey run dey find meruwa(aboki who sells water). My heart dey cut because for warri if you hear say NEPA pole don fall just know say the light battle is over. Either you get ready to be buying constant fuel for your generator or plan B, you buy a carton of candle cos na indefinite suspension from light be that.

So as I hear say transformer burn naim I quickly rush buy water. Low and behold, as I just dey lock the gate after the Aboki supplied the water, Power was restored.
I shock! I say "shooo, this nor be transformer when dey say burn?" A friend replied, "You don forget where you dey? Na Abuja you dey not Warri o".

I laugh tire. This is a typical scenario of saying 'You can take the girl out of the town but you can't take the town of the girl'.

Warri in my veins,
Hahahahahahahahahahaha.

All Ye Normal People! Decode This...

Yes, I said normal people because DOING is now a normal thing. Everybody does or do the DOING act. I always say gone at the days of abstinence o! This generation DOING is the normal dance.

I don't think we can find a relationship where the couples don't DO. It has even transcended to the churches now.
Head of Ushers abi Usher leader would do paper bag marriage(cohabitation) with choir mistress for years and yet every sunday they would dress together and go to church. The babe go climb altar to lead praise and worship. Baba God sha dey very very merciful. How dey wan deny say they never DO all the nights that they slept together.

Make I gist una the story of one babe when I know for Abraka. Her and her boyfriend are both workers in church. They would fire and scatter their room from Monday to Friday, then on Saturday they won't fire/DO because the next day is church.

Like seriously is Monday to Friday DOING any different from Saturday DOING? World people, we must always find a way to twist things to suit our own personal desire.

I am not trying to be judgmental sha, I just wanted to share the picture of the two toothbrushes DOING it and tell you that these days everybody..sorry almost everybody do the DOING act.

INFO OF THE DAY: Rate of STDS
The rate of chlamydia among African-American men is more than 11 times that of white men. Additionally, African-Americans remain the group most heavily affected by gonorrhea. In 2004, the gonorrhea rate among blacks was 19 times the rate among whites.

Wait o! Does this mean that black people DO more than white people?

Any which way, if you must DO always try to DO safe/Play safe.

Yansh Shoe

Take a look at this. What do you see? A pair of shoe with a yansh heel.

Girls, Onana-kí-dié-mu? Which style be this again?

Fashion plus yanga nor go kill us girls. Na our life be that. So many funny names in the female fashion industry. Two of the ones wen just reign recently are;
1) Heeless shoe a.k.a Lady Gaga shoe/Devil Shoe
2) Visible parting for weavons a.k.a Azonto parting.

I wonder who dey name all this things sef with the kain funny names when person dey hear. Anyway since I never see this shoe before or hear anybody talk about am, Me, Omote WAG have taken it upon myself to name this shoe 'The Yansh Shoe'.

The shoe is quite cute o! but it isn't something I would crave to have in my wardrobe.

So ladies wen sabi fashion die, keep your eyes open to see whether this yansh shoe would be a trending item.

INFO OF THE DAY: Origin Of Heels In Shoes.
Heels are said to have originated from the Middle East where heels were added to shoes to lift the foot from the burning sand.

Hmmm...history! That one na in the olden days o! Heels are now added to shoes not just to assist some girls who suffer from shortness deficiency but also to give ladies a nice look and good stepping.

N.B: Girls I beg you in the name of God. Wear the heel you can walk in. If its 4" you can walk in wear that one. Nor go do wetin pass you, come wear 8" dey waka like who wan break leg or dey hold another person to support you like say you be cripple.

I know 'looking good is good business' but looking good in the right way is important. If an 8" shoe looks good on you but you can't walk in it, please jejely settle for a lower heel.

GUYS, if you love a lady on high heels and your girlfriend can't wear heels, buy her a CAR. So that she can drive with bathroom slippers to the event gate and sharpadly change to the heels then manage to walk the short distance.

Lol, I am indeed back with my kolo, skoi-skoi, yama-yama, yenge-yenge, gbogbonye, everything goes blog post.

Back With 'One Thing'

I am sorry!!! for my long absence from blogville. I was fighting a battle against change in life. The whole relocation and adaptation to the ABJ life nor easy. Getting to learn the roads, in order to prevent the loss-ing abi missing of WAG. I gats learn the road fast fast so that I nor go find myself for one aboki village before dey use me take do kilishi, lol.

Anyway, I am back now. Its been a while sha. So am not just back back, I am back with one of the latest lyrics/saying. It's called 'One Thing'.

Ok down to the explanation of 'One Thing'. One thing can be defined as the one response or reply given by a boyfriend/girlfriend to his/her spouse.

Most of us must have experienced it. If you haven't experienced it don't worry you might, especially if you have the type of boyfriend that chases after everything in skit.

My friend was giving me gist about how she called her boyfriend and he was answering coldly with just 'Yes, No, Ok'. She actually said, "WAG, I knew he was with another girl. He was doing me One thing".

Naim I ask, "abeg which one be one thing again?". She na replied that it is his one word response to anything she said.

I laugh tire. I said "shoo, na one thing dem dey call am now?"
Normally me and my friends just talk about this kind of situation as a one response situation but now my friend don rephrase am to 'One Thing'.

So if your bf/gf is giving you the 'K, Ok, Yes, No' response, he/she is doing you 'One Thing'. Hahahahahaha

INFO OF THE DAY: Days Without Blogging.
It's exactly 19days since my last post. That is 2wks and 5days. I did my last post on the 23rd of march 2013.

There is a reason for everything, that's what people say. So due to the fact that I couldn't blog for two days, I decided to convert the circumstances beyond my control to an experiment.

The experiment was this? People have asked me times without number whether dey born me with blog? If I can survive without my blog? Is blogging in my blood stream?

As you can see I never kpeme(die) but I knew somewhere deep down in the bottomest bottom of myself, that those days weren't totally complete because I didn't have a post.

Omo my people the matter too many for me to start to dey put the tory. The random thoughts when I store for my brain for this past two days be say 'everything actually happens for a reason', 'life na just experiment of self discovery' and 'you can never tell what the future holds'

Once again, if you love me,WAG and you love my blog, subscribe to my blog via email so as not to miss any post.

Boyfriend Blabber

It's been a while since I meet a boyfriend blabber. What do I mean by boyfriend blabber? I mean those ladies that don't discuss anything apart from their boyfriends. All they do is blab about their boyfriends. You can stay with them for 20hours and everything you hear is my boyfriend this, my boyfriend that.

No this isn't a negative post about boyfriends. I'm not complaining about boyfriends o!
I know say love dey sweet and can catch person like kain-kain(hot drink) but please be sensible when talking about your spouse. Not that every question you are asked, you answer with your boyfriend.

My conversation with boyfriend blabber;
Me: This place is hot.
Boyfriend Blabber: My boyfriend got me an air conditional because of the heat in Abuja.

We gisted for a while and I was like,
There has been a lot of complains about the Presidential pardon given to Diepreye Alamieyeseigha.
Boyfriend Blabber: Hmmm....my boyfriend said the same thing o. I remembered that morning he came to my house to drop the......from there we na left for.....

See here, the gist has diverted from Alamieyeseigha to a recap of activities with the boyfriend.

Everything was linked back to her boyfriend and I was like no need, this one na really boyfriend blabber. I practically know everything now about her boyfriend from the short time we gisted.

INFO OF THE DAY: Diepreye Alamieyeseigha's Presidential Pardon
On 12 March 2013, former Bayelsa State governonr, Diepreye Alamieyeseigha was pardoned by President Goodluck Jonathan, but his pardoning was criticised by many.

I'm So Inspired

I won't lie, it hasn't been easy to blog for a while. When I get home, I'm so tired and I just wan use my back take touch the bed and crash (sleep).

Today wasn't any different from the other days of me being tired but I just saw a mail that inspired me.

It was sent by a WAG reader. He had actually sent a mail earlier which I replied and today I just saw his response to my reply and it inspired me. The WAG reader goes by the name C.O

So how the whole mail matter take happen.

My inbox;
C.O : I must say I am so proud and elated with your efforts of keeping the blogging spirit alive, it will always be a never say die philosophy.
Let it fly...
Kudos.

Me : Thanks a lot, I appreciate your mail. Sorry that my reply is coming late, I have been really so busy, I would try and continue to keep the flag flying

C.O : Pls do for a whole lot of us are counting on ur efforts.

This mail has inspired me. Sometimes people ask why I blog continuously. I do it because it's fun and a hobby for me and I know that whatever I writer, whether good or yamayama(bad), there are still people out there who read and look forward to reading.

To you all I say thanks.

INFO OF THE DAY: Email Encryption
Email encryption refers to encryption, and often authentication, of email messages, which can be done in order to protect the content from being read by unintended recipients.

God was too much when he made humans with intelligent brain. As some people found a way to hack into other people's privacy, he enabled others find a way to encrypt mails for protection.

Monday The Reminder

Today is another day where I express how much I don't like Mondays. Monday just brings to mind serious struggle and hustle to make up for the relaxation during the weekend.

Kai! The weekend is never enough. Why is Sunday so far from Monday and Monday so close to Sunday? Because Monday is the day that reminds us that there is no food for lazy man. Who nor work nor go chop.

So I did some hustling today now I need to rest and prepare for tomorrow's hustle.

INFO OF THE DAY: Lateness On Monday
According to Odd stuff magazine, 50% of employees are late to work on monday.

There is a saying which says, 'its better late than never'. Nor matter how the weekend sweet reach, people go still try manage go work even if they go late. In order to avoid constant taking of garri flakes (soaking garri) to quench hunger.

Who Is The Bride?

Please can someone tell me who the bride is. I saw this picture and I was confused.

Initially, a thought ran through my mind that maybe the lady on braids was the bride, and the other lady on short weavon was the one who made the book, then I looked at the bottom and saw courtesy the couple.

So which of the ladies is the bride? Abi is it one groom with two brides?

INFO OF THE DAY: Number One Top Wedding Destination in the World

Las Vegas is the top wedding destination in the world with over 100,000 weddings a year, followed by Hawaii at 25,000 weddings a year.

100,000 wedding a year! Americans dey really marry fast sha. You would see couples who married just after some few days of meeting each other. Whereas in 9ja one boy go date girl for 9years still dey talk say he doesn't know if she is the right one. How long would it take you to know? A century? *eyesrolling*

Local Government Elections, Curfew And Wedding

Due to the Local Government elections which were conducted today, 16th March 2013, curfew was placed in Abuja city from Friday 12midnight to Saturday 5pm.

No movement at all at all. I sleep, I wake up, I sleep again I wake up. That was just the order of my day, and thanks to PHCN they made it more boring for not giving us light. Today of all days, when dey ask people make dem sit down house naim we suppose get 24hours light, so that person nor go feel like prisoner inside house.

My complain is even small compared to that of one of my friends, who came for a wedding only to be told that there wasn't going to be movement. The wedding was then shifted from morning to 5pm in the evening and reception by 8pm.

In short the reception may still be going on. I hope the couple get a good turnover of guests. Anyway this is Abuja, people move at all hours of the day. If na for some other places, fear nor go make guests go for 8pm wedding o, make dey nor go thief their cars.

I am happy for the couple. Plus election, minus election, they were still joined together as husband and wife.

INFO OF THE DAY: Local Government Councils in Federal Capital Territory

People Affected By 'My Oga At The Top'

Over the last 24-48 hours, 'my oga at the top' has been trending. Its really fun to see many things coming out from it.

Not only were t-shirts made, an #myogaatthetop twitter group was created, a 'my oga at the top' facebook page was also created. Then there were different songs released for 'my oga at the top'. They are all hilarious but the most shocking of the all is that someone has purchased the domain name of 'my oga at the top'.

The site isn't fully operational now but the domain name www.myogaatthetop.com has been bought and taken.

There are two people who have been affected by this 'my oga at the top' trend.

In first place we have AKPOS. You all know how akpos don suffer for curse and joke matter. Now AKPOS can breath because 'my oga at the top' has taken the spotlight.

The 2nd is Mr. Obafaiye Shem, the Lagos State Commandant of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corp (NSCDC) who got nationwide fame by yaning gbagaun(speaking wrongly) on TV.

Ha! Na wa o! How this man take reach the position of State Commandant?
There was a time I heard someone say that one senator abi house of rep member couldn't sing the national anthem. This goes to show the type of people in power.

1st Or 2nd To Last

I come frm a family of 6, and I'm d 3rd child followed by a younger sister who is the lasty/last card/last born/baby of the house.

All my life, when people ask what position I am among the children, I usually say 3rd born or '2nd to the last'.

This night someone just corrected me that it isn't '2nd to the last', it should be '1st to the last' because looking at it literally, '2nd to the last' means there is one more child after me before the last born whereas '1st to the last' means I am the 1st person before the last born.

My friend claimed to have been making the same mistake as well until recently when he was corrected.

I was so surprised to know that '2nd to the last' may not be correct. This is something I have heard often from alot of people. Anyway we learn everyday.

So before I take this correction, I want to do a survey to know what you guys think. Is it supposed to be '2nd to the last' or '1st to the last'?

INFO OF THE DAY: Children Have Loud Voices.
