THIS POST IS NOW AVAILABLE AS A PODCAST. LISTEN HERE Hi guys, happy Saturday. How are you doing? I hope awesome. So, I’m back on The Spotlight with another topical issue. This one has divided and still divides the world, as the convicted pedophile, R. Kelly, still has […]
There is a thin line between love and hate. It’s a known fact. There’s also a thin line between vanity and self-contempt. And I’ve come to know that there’s a thin line between self-improvement and self-destruction too. Everything in moderation. It is right and good to look at […]
Hey… How have you been? I’m so happy to be back on The Spotlight. I hope to get back to my regular posting schedule soon. I’m kicking it off with a bang this year… Just look at the headline! Kidnapped for Ransom! Guys, it’s a true story oh, […]
1 Golden rays of sunlight filter through the slits of the blinds, grazing her ebony cheekbone, where a stray tear drop lingers and glistens. Remorse and shame, like the cool winter breeze, blow over Ochuko where she lies. Tugging the covers, she passes a hand over her cheek […]
Sometime last week, I was looking for something to watch while I worked, and I was unsettled about doing the usual – Netflix. I’d already acknowledged that I needed to feed my mind with inspiration and learning, but it was just a light craving. I didn’t know how […]
I’m not over it… It’s amazing how something traumatic happens in your life, and you’re just supposed to get over it. Everyone hastens you to keep it moving. Get up, wash up, and keep it moving. I’ve been listening to motivational messages on YouTube lately, and mehn, I’ve […]
I haven’t been active on this blog for a couple of years and a number of reasons. In 2018, it ceased to be an avenue where I could express and explore my faith with sincerity and vulnerability. But besides that, something else, something big, was going on in […]
Hey… Happy New Year! Happy Valentine’s! Happy Women’s Month!!! Lol! I can’t believe this is my first post on the blog this year… I’ve been thinking maybe I need to do something different with it, since it ceased being my therapy a couple of years ago… But God […]

So, three months ago, I got a message on Instagram asking me to take part in a book project, an African Christmas Romance Anthology. The sender went by the name The Eccentric Diva (Youtuber) aka @camaa_pearl. Eccentric indeed! When she said the title of this Christmas anthology would […]
Five years ago, I wrote Shame – The Devil’s Sticky Tape and talked about how the enemies of the gospel like to use shame to silence us from speaking the truth. With this post, I encouraged believers, who are imperfect and have made mistakes, not to consider that […]
Rachel’s Diary tells of her life after saying “I do” to her choice. Her husband and marriage are not what she expected at all, despite being a marriage counsellor herself. Through her story, there’s much to learn, unlearn, and search out!
I’m of the opinion that it is easier to say sorry when you don’t mean it. For some people, sorry just falls off their lips just as easily as they lie. But as someone who strives to be truthful all the time, I find it hard to apologise […]
We all do it, I’m sure. Wonder “what if I’d done this and not that?” “What if I’d been there or not been there?” “What if I’d listened to that person or chosen a different action?” Such thinking serves only to frustrate and torment us, because it changes […]
