Don't wear rose coloured glasses, love is not blind!   OLAMIDE'S STORY. The snipping sound of the scissors brought me back to reality, as bits and chumps of my hair fell on my lap. My mind drifted towards you. We talked about this once, that day mazi ikechukwu's widow

There is something big coming and you haven't heard about it!!!!  It's LYDAC (Live Your Dream Africa Conference).

What make it standard practice for a man to open the car door for a woman. Let me guess you would claim curtsey. Oh isn't a woman also human what stops her from opening the door herself.
