Earlier today, a clip surfaced online showing French President, Emmanuel Macron being pushed on the cheek by his wife, Brigitte Macron. What should have sparked outrage, concern, and deep conversations around domestic violence was instead reduced to meme fodder and crude jokes. The reaction has been as swift as it has been disturbing: mockery, laughter, judgment, and the ever familiar chorus of “That’s what he gets for marrying his teacher.” And just like that, a moment that should have highlighted a very real issue, domestic violence against men, was drowned in ridicule. No hashtags. No public outcry. No feminist organizations stepping forward. No nonprofit issuing a statement. Just silence. Deafening silence. Abuse is abuse, regardless of the gender of the perpetrator or the victim. If the roles were reversed, if President Macron had slapped or pushed Brigitte Macron, there would be protests. There would be hashtags. There would be fire and fury from advocacy groups. The world would come to a standstill demanding ability and protection for women, and rightly so. But when it is a man, a world leader no less, experiencing what can only be described as a moment of public humiliation and physical aggression, the same voices fall silent. Why? Because society has normalized the idea that men are too strong to be victims. That their pain is comical. That their abuse is somehow deserved. And so, they suffer not just in silence but in isolation and shame. President Macron has long been the subject of public scrutiny because of his marriage. This age gap, had the roles been reversed, would be celebrated as empowerment or love defying the odds. But for him, it is used as a weapon to justify abuse. And now,...

The recent attack on 25-year-old Nigerian influencer, Enioluwa Adeoluwa, for crying at his best friend, Priscilla’sPriscilla’s wedding is more than an internet scandal. It is an indictment of our collective failure to raise emotionally healthy men. Enioluwa, in a raw, beautiful, and deeply human moment, shed tears as he celebrated a life milestone with someone he loves platonically. But instead of comion, he was met with venom. The internet erupted with disturbing comments from Nigerian men, the very people who should understand the weight of unspoken emotions. “Men used to fight lions and tigers but little boys have to watch Enioluwa shed tears like a woman on her period.” “Enioluwa is such a terrible role model for younger men.” “When I have a male child, when he turns 10 years old I go first break five bottles for his head make he know say men mount.” “I go wear crown of thorns make he know say life no be bed of roses.” “See simp behavior. You dey cry because woman marry? Na wa for you.” “He must have been sleeping with her. Why else would a man cry that much?” These cruel commentary is not just about Enioluwa. It is about every boy who has been told that his tears are unacceptable. It is about every man who has been shamed for showing emotion. It is about a culture that would rather raise broken, hardened men than whole, healthy ones. There is nothing wrong with a man crying. There is nothing wrong with a man expressing deep affection for a friend. There is nothing wrong with a man being emotionally present in a moment of transition, joy, or loss. What is wrong is the fact that our society punishes softness, ridicules empathy, and weaponizes masculinity. Boys in Nigeria and many parts of the world are taught from an early age that...

Marriage ceremonies are a beautiful celebration of love and commitment, and for many, a church wedding is the pinnacle of this celebration. Imagine father proudly walking his daughter down the aisle as she s hands with her partner, ready to say their vows before God and loved ones. It’s a moment of joy and solemnity and a beginning of an happy ever after—until the government steps in and declares your marriage invalid. Yes, this can happen. If your church is not licensed to issue marriage certificates, your wedding may not be legally recognized in Nigeria. Here’s everything you need to know to ensure your marriage is both heavenly and lawful. What Makes a Church Wedding Legal? In Nigeria, for a marriage conducted in a church to be legally binding, the church must be licensed to issue marriage certificates. This licensing is governed by the Marriage Act, CAP M6, Laws of the Federation of Nigeria (2006). The Federal Ministry of Interior oversees the licensing process through its eCITIBIZ portal, a platform designed to streamline the registration and licensing of places of worship. Without this license, the marriage conducted by a church is not valid under Nigerian law, meaning couples may unknowingly remain unmarried in the eyes of the state. Licensing and Renewal Process Churches that wish to conduct legal marriages must apply for a license through the eCITIBIZ portal. Here’s how it works: 1. Initial Licensing: After a successful application and payment, the Ministry of Interior issues a license certificate valid for five years.

Just yesterday, Bloomberg, perhaps the leading business-focused media on Earth, reported that the world’s largest meat producer, JBS SA, is investing $2.5 billion in Nigeria.

Breaking off a relationship can be incredibly painful, often leaving you feeling like a part of you is missing. What many people don’t realize is that the overwhelming emotions you experience after a breakup aren’t just in your head—they’re rooted in biology. This phenomenon, often referred to as relationship withdrawal syndrome, explains why love and loss can feel so devastating. What is Relationship Withdrawal Syndrome Have you ever been heartbroken and felt like you were literally falling apart? Maybe you couldn’t sleep, your appetite disappeared, or you kept checking your ex’s social media, hoping for some kind of sign. That’s relationship withdrawal syndrome. It happens because love—especially in romantic relationships—acts like a drug. When you’re in love, your brain releases feel-good chemicals like dopamine, oxytocin, and serotonin.

First dates can be exciting and nerve-wracking. Whether you're meeting for amala at a local buka or sharing a candlelit dinner in an upscale restaurant, the stakes are high—you want to impress, but you also want to be yourself. However, there are certain behaviors that can ruin the vibe faster than a failed bank transfer. Here’s a detailed guide on what to avoid on your first date. 1. Don’t Fall for “African Time” In Nigeria, being late is often joked about as “African Time,” but let’s be real—it’s not a good look. Showing up late without any explanation screams disrespect, especially if your date arrived on time. Whether it's Lagos traffic, a fuel queue, or an unexpected rainstorm, plan ahead to be punctual. If something unavoidable comes up, call ahead to explain. It’s all about courtesy. 2. Don’t Turn the Date into a Therapy Session Nobody came on a first date to listen to stories about your ex who “ate your money and ghosted you” or how your extended family drama is stressing you out. Oversharing too soon can make your date feel overwhelmed. Instead, keep the gist light and positive. Save the heavy stuff for when you’re more comfortable with each other.

Persons with disabilities (PWDs) remain one of the most marginalised groups in society, despite involvement and fairness being benchmarks of an advanced society. Governments have a responsibility to ensure these individuals are catered for and empowered to lead fulfilling lives. Historically, PWDs have faced systemic neglect, with public and private infrastructures remaining largely inaccessible. This lack of inclusivity denies them the ability to participate in everyday activities such as education, employment, and social events. Despite technological advancements, the barriers persist, calling for urgent government intervention. Providing financial to organisations for the adoption of inclusive infrastructure must be treated as a priority.

The talking stage is that awkward yet exciting period where you and your potential boo are figuring out if you vibe well enough to take things to the next level. It's a time to learn, connect, and build a foundation. But just as it’s a time for making a good impression, it’s also easy to mess things up if you're not careful. Here are 10 things you definitely shouldn’t do during the talking stage, especially if you want to avoid hearing “It’s not you, it’s me” on WhatsApp one random evening. 1. Don’t Overdo the Pet Names Calling someone “baby,” “honey,” or “my love” too soon can feel forced and cringy. If you just met last week, they’re not your “king” or “queen” yet—relax. People value authenticity, so don’t rush into the emotional lane before you've built some trust. 2. Don’t Ask “What Are We?” Too Early This question has broken more relationships than village witches. Asking too soon puts unnecessary pressure on the other person. The talking stage is meant to be a time to get to know each other, not to define a relationship that hasn’t even started.

November 19, marks the International Men’s Day (IMD), a day dedicated to highlighting the positive values men bring to families, communities, and the world. The theme for 2024, “Positive Male Role Models,” encourages men to teach the boys in their lives the values, character and responsibilities of being a man in order to create a fair and safe society that allows everyone the opportunity to prosper. Why Positive Role Models Matter Imagine a young boy growing up surrounded by vices and wrong values, without anyone to serve as a positive guide. It is likely that he will view these negative behaviours as normal and continue on that path as he matures into adulthood, influencing others along the way. This highlights the critical need for positive role models, whose presence or absence can have a trans-generational impact.

“I'm enduring all this for love's sake,” Ada told her friends after discovering her boyfriend was cheating for the second time. But how much can love truly endure? For many people, forgiving a cheating partner is often seen as a badge of honour. We are told to “fight for our relationship” or “stay for the kids,” but at what cost? Forgiving a cheat isn’t as simple as pretending the betrayal didn’t happen. It’s an emotional and mental battle that often leaves the victim scarred and questioning their worth. Here's why you should not forgive a cheating partner: Trust Once Broken is Hard to Repair Cheating breaks trust, the very foundation of any relationship. When someone cheats, they shatter the bond of loyalty and honesty. Rebuilding that trust is like trying to mend a cracked pot with tape — it may hold for a while, but the damage is evident.

Black Friday is on and shoppers in Nigeria are taking advantage of what has become the year’s biggest sales frenzy. From smartphones to fashion items, the promise of jaw-dropping discounts can send anyone rushing to fill their cart. However, don’t fall victim to the dreaded “what I ordered vs. what I got” experience or, worse still, lose your money to scams. Here's how you can avoid getting scammed this season: 1. Shop from Trusted Stores Stick to well-known and reputable retailers, whether online or in-person.
