FAMILY AFFAIRS.  Written by The Story Teller, Ejiro Emenike Ukaumune. ✍ It was quite Sunny and the birds were having a field day on the Trees thus the neighborhood looked Cossy. As Sade strolled down the road in search for hot 'Amala and Gbegiri, her head was spinned with so much thoughts of her predicament.  She wondered if she was fast loosing her family to the pressure of Childlessness. The Tension between her and Tunde had culminated to a point where things were out of control. She couldn't remember the last time Tunde walked out of the House without informing her and to think he had just done it made Sade shudder. She got to a T-junction and stopped. Glancing sideways, Sade sighted a Buka! Immediately, she headed for it, quite hopeful she could get her Not Amala and Ewedu! She arrived at the Buka and met quite a number of boys and girls(apparently, who were workers.) washing so many plates. Then it occurred to Sade that it was quite a Hot spot and she was certain...

      FAMILY AFFAIRS! Sade was surprised and she had no idea where Tunde was. It was Saturday and as far as she was concerned she couldn't remember if Tunde had mentioned any appointment he had. Sade strolled into the bathrooms and balcony to erase any doubt over Tunde's sudden disappearance, however he was no where to be found. Sade shrouded and decided to make bacon and toast for breakfast. She quickly squeezed out some fresh tangerine and lemon juice and then, settled down to eat. As Sade picked up one of the Toast Bread, she immediately realized th  at the sort of appetite she had was that of 'Amala and Ewedu'!  Sade glanced at the Wall Clock, pondering over her option. She thought she could dash to the Market quickly to get 'Amala Flour and Ewedu thus she returned the Toast Bread and Bacon to the Kitchen, however she quickly gulped the juice and headed out of the House! 🍃                  Get a dis...

  WHEN POWER BECOMES DRUNK.      Written by The Story Teller,          Ejiro Emenike Ukaumune.                               ✍   We are no longer strangers to         Dictatorship, Absolutism, Authoritarianism and Monopoly, all these ideology have one thing in common and that is Power! Looking at the flip side of Power, it's not so attractive, however, it can be, when judiciously applied. The ideal definition of Power underlines 'Authority' and 'Leadership', however what we do with this authority and position changes everything! The adage: 'Absolute power corrupts absolutely' sure speaks volumes. When you no longer listen to those you lead! When you no longer seek good counsel! When you no longer consider others before you take certain decisions! when only your opinion counts! when you see and listen to just you! When you feel more import...

                 HOME AFFAIRS!..... To say the least, Sade was quite disappointed at the stench of alcohol that came out of Tunde's mouth. She stood there for a while as she stared at her husband struggling to gain his balance. He staggered uncontrollably like a yo-yo! "I thought I asked a simple question! are you just returning from the office!" Tunde murmured. Sade was so perplexed to respond that she only went ahead to unlock the Door for them to get into the house. As soon as they were in, Tunde staggered few steps further before falling to the ground! Sade hurriedly bent down to pick him up. After some minutes of struggling, Sade succeeded to get Tunde on the sofa. He laid helplessly there the entire night, sweating profusely. Sade prepared some cool water in the bathtub and dragged him into the bathroom. After the shower. She hurriedly made toast and tea for him before she headed for bed. The next morning, Sade woke up and did not fin...
