Mother

-




Love and care stays in her heart
Her heart moulded of pure gold
Her heart has a soft shiny glow
Her heart so true and pure 
Her heart has no bars 

Hope and dreams stay in her eyes 
Her eyes shinning like the sun
Her eyes shinning bright and beautiful 
Her eyes so full of smiles
Her eyes full of stars 

Life and light stays in her smile 
Her smile which warms my heart 
Her shinning smile which lights up my day 
Her smile, the only sunshine I need 
Her smile has no scar 

Beauty and strength stays in her soul 
Her soul so strong and beautiful 
Her soul full of fire 
Her fire which burns on the prayer altar 
She is an incredibly strong woman 
She is my Mother! 

CHEERFUL






My woman crush Wednesday goes to every Mother out there, performing her duties and role as a Mother.

The Menace of Corporate begging in Lagos

 By Praise Olowe Just when I thought the issue of corporate begging had seized in Lagos, some of my recent encounters within the Lagos metropolis has got me re thinking. Corporate beggars seem to be back in town and this time around, they are back in re branded styles. Street begging is not new in Nigeria, and it majorly involves visibly disadvantaged people, who line major roads to beg for money. You would agree with me that, seeing a good looking man who is all dressed up in tuxedo, carrying a fancy brief case and wearing a pair of shoe so well polished that you can almost see your reflection in them on the street of Lagos is not at all a concern. However, it becomes one when this corporately dressed man, walks up to a lady not to make advances, but to seek assistance backing it up with a really pathetic story.

Jumia is one of the largest e-commerce operators in Africa. However, if you think you have explored all there is about Jumia, you might just be thinking wrongly. Once you go beyond the mobile phones and home appliances, the online store can be a very bizzare place. Having gotten used to recharging my phone , paying utility bills, making hotel reservations, booking a ride, ordering food from various restaurants of my choice and so much more, I just got the news via mail that I could also apply for a loan with zero collateral using Jumia.  I’m sure many of us are not even aware that we can purchase furnitures, Auto mobile Accessories and so much more on Jumia.
