If you were having coffee with me I would bid you welcome and tell you to get out of the rain before you catch your death of cold. You would probably ask me if I recently had my hair fixed up and I reply “What gave it away, was it the rain, it always rains after my wash day”
If you were having coffee with me I would tell you that after all my experiences as a Rain God, I would have figured out that I should carry an umbrella after washday but see I have a terrible habit of losing them; I forget them in taxis, cloak rooms anywhere I set it down I’ll probably just walk away and not even turn around, until splash a drop of rain lands on me and I remember I had an umbrella but not anymore.
If you were having coffee with me I would tell you that today is world cancer day.
Shout out to all the cancer survivors out there.
The risk of getting cancer can be reduced by practicing a healthy lifestyle and early detection increases the chances of treatment.
If you were having coffee with me I would tell you that my grandma just passed away, the doctors say if the cancer had been detected early they might have been able to treat it. Go well grandma we wont cry we celebrate a life lived to its fullest.
If you were having coffee with me I would tell you how part of the reason I keep this blog is to shed light on my little corner of the world its not an S word. I was reminded of this as I read the following transcript from an interview of Chimamanda Adichie Ngozi by a French journalist:
Interviewer: Are your books read in Nigeria?
Chimamanda: Yes
Interviewer: Do they have libraries in Nigeria?
Chimamanda: I think it reflects poorly on France that you asked that question
Believe it or not someone once sent me an email asking if we have the internet in Africa, can you here my eyes roll?
