The sun was going down, and Amadi still hadn’t returned home. Erhuvwun was worried. His leaving this morning was unusual. She’d expected him back since lunchtime and had even gone to the stream to call him, thinking he’d gone there to clear his head. But he wasn’t there. […]
In this world where the wise thing to do in an abusive relationship is to walk away, to protect and look after yourself and your sanity, I feel conflicted about the Wisdom of the Cross that caused Jesus to endure unfair punishment, torture, insults and mocking, to redeem […]
AVAILABLE TO MEMBERS AND PATRONS ONLY It was a full house at Mr and Mrs Ifeanyi Chukweke’s home. Daniel, Samson and Sunday, Mary’s brothers, were all home for the Summer Break. Thankfully, the house was big enough to accommodate them all. However, for their trip to Church that […]
Erhuvwun rarely sang these days, but when she did, they were songs of immense sadness and loss. In the blink of an eye, without any warning at all, her whole world came crashing down on her. It was last month when it happened. She was in her second […]
Hey y’all, it’s been a good minute. I am still evolving as a writer, blogger and author, and I’ve come up with a great new idea to gain more devoted readers and reviewers of my works. I am starting a Book Club from January 2019, and members of […]
Lola was home alone again. It was 10pm at night and Bolu was not yet back from work. The food she had prepared for dinner at 8 O’Clock was well and truly cold by now. At nine, she’d given up the wait, and decided to have her dinner […]
Some months later, it was the wedding of another couple of villagers. One of them was the younger sister to a close friend of Erhuvwun, and so she was keen to make the festivities. Again, Amadi was not interested, but this time, he accompanied Erhuvwun with good cheer. […]

Quite recently, I ordered a copy of The House Girl, alongside two other titles by the same author. It was a privilege to have the mentioned books autographed and delivered to my door-step by the author herself. During my meeting with the author,…
“Lily, Lily!” Lola heard her mother’s call, and felt her shaking her awake from her sleep. “Lily, come. Come quick!” Omotola called her sleeping child. “Mama…” Lola stirred from her sleep, and rubbed her eyes. She couldn’t believe it. It was really her mother! She pinched herself, because […]
Lola checked her phone for messages and missed calls when she was alone in her hotel room. Bolu had responded to her earlier message with “Great! Work’s been busy today. I’ll call you when I get home, so we can talk about how your day went.” However, there […]
“Uno-do’-tres-cuatro… I know you want me, you know I want ‘cha…” Pitbull’s song blared on the stereo, as the car engine started, indicating the radio channel Danny’s driver had been listening to, before he had picked up Danny and Lola. “Please can you change the station?” Lola asked, […]
Lola’s flight from Lagos landed at the Nnamdi Azikiwe International Airport in Abuja by quarter past ten on the Tuesday morning. She had only hand luggage, so she didn’t have to wait for any baggage at the baggage claim. She sent Bolu a message to tell him that […]
Having prayed the night before that God should grant him counsel in the night and clarity in the morning, Bolu woke up and tried to recollect his dreams. He couldn’t glean anything substantial that was clearly relating to his situation. He didn’t even think he had dreamt at […]
As was their weekly custom, Bolu and Lola attended Church together on this first Sunday of April. They sat in their usual seats, and greeted their regular neighbours. Pastor Kunle Ogunbanjo preached about the Cross of the Disciple, following on from last week’s Easter theme. It was a powerful […]
Bimbo Adetayo stayed up to wait for her son to return from his work. Lola had prepared the spare room for her mother-in-law before going to bed at 10pm. She’d packed up the food and kept Bolu’s in the microwave. Bolu came home to find his mother snoring […]
Danny chose a table by the poolside, which had a lovely view of the lagoon. He pulled a seat out for Lola, and she sat down without making a fuss. She’d observed how he had been greeted and how they had been treated on entry into the hotel, […]
Bolu and Lola had a morning devotional session together the following day. Bolu had dropped the ball on this special time in the past, as he was often in a hurry to get to work. Today, Bolu spent more time on prayer for their unity, and for understanding and love […]
Daniel Akunne was a man expert at getting what he wanted. With each new triumph, his confidence and skills grew. He had learnt early the virtue of patience and the art of cunning, and was resourceful in making the best use of all the gifts God had blessed him […]
At about 5:30pm, Bolu got a call from the other woman in his life who he had been neglecting of late. The other Mrs Adetayo, his aging mother, Bimbo. He instantly felt guilty for not having called her in over a month, and wondered what she could be […]
