"Don't Sell Yourself Short Just Because Of A Ring."- Benita Okojie and Adeyeye Aderonke.

Gospel singer, Benita Okojie, advises young
singles ladies against bowing to the
pressures of marriage in message she shared
on her Instagram page:

Dear Sister, I know that now that you’re done with school and have
a steady job. The most asked question from parents,relatives and
even friends is “When are you getting married?” For our parents;
they want to carry their grand child. Our siblings; they can’t wait
to be called Uncle and Aunty Our Neighbours and Relatives; can’t
wait to see little junior running round the house. They have every
right to want this as much as we all do but everything will happen
in God’s time. The pressure is real and so many people who
married because of pressure will tell you that you shouldn’t make
that decision just because there’s pressure to. Don’t sell your self
short just because of a ring and change in Status! There’s a
blessing in Waiting. Waiting for God’s Time. While you wait. Don’t
sit at home. Meet people, Share your values, Interests and faith as
you prayerfully trust God to bring you the Mr Right. The greatest
tragedy in life is to marry someone else’s Rib because your destinies
are intertwined. May You find your own Rib! #InJesusName

My Opinion
I have been saying this and I will say it one million times, the "wrongest" reason for a woman to marry is pressure. Don't be pressurized to get yoked to someone who is not yours.

If you mistakenly get married to someone you are not compatible with, even the Bible said "The end of the man is word than his beginning" This time its the lady's end that will be worse than her beginning.


The world is not ending now, even if it is nko. Must you rush into a man's arms to fulfill all righteousness? Most of you don't understand love not to talk of marriage. But because your friends are
getting married, you feel left out. You feel you have not achieved anything.

My dear, how many lives have you impacted. How many lives have you given meaning to? How many faces have you put a smile on?
If its none, then you have no business getting married.

Sista Movie Review

  The opening scene did me in. I read somewhere that the first few 5 minutes of a movie determines if it is worth it.  Trust me, Sista movie hooked me in less than 5 minutes. I loved the straight to the point opening. No show of the Third Mainland Bridge. No lazy show of Lagos traffic. Nothing. Also, the past/present sequence made crazy sense.  Seeing Kehinde Bankole in that role is refreshing, it's not what she is used to, but she did well. Chimezie was quite not in character, or maybe he didn't bond with Ade Herself. I don't know. He is better than what I saw him act here. As usual Aunty Ronke Oshodi Oke gave it her all. This Tope Owokoniran babe tried with her Hausa accent. I love it!!! I think this is the best of her I have seen so far. I'd say this is a movie Aunty Biodun Stephen put her everything to make. This is a beautiful work of art. I love every piece of it. The story line is dope. Directing is flawless. The fun part was that even though It was predictable f...

Ijakumo Movie Review

  Whatever this movie was set to give, it didn't give.  Even the stripping is not giving. Why is the Sharon girl sex talking like she is doing spoken words???  I liked the babe in "Listening Ears", but I feel she is not 'mature' enough theatrically for this role. Wait, what I noticed was that Toyin and her crew didn't know there was a girl who looks like the Sharon girl in his church. A very crazy error that no director should make. If they had come in with this, maybe the finding out they were twin bla BLA BLA suspense would suspense well. But as the director or script writer were very myopic, the twin shii didn't hold water. If they had said or showed that they picked the Ugandan girl because she looked like the Nigerian girl in his church, e for make perfect sense. Seriously, I am miffed. The only thing that thrilled me was Kunle Remi and his lines. O mard gan. 🤣🤣🤣 "Emi mimo ni kin gbenu sohun". 🤣🤣🤣 "So, idi Uganda lo Fe baye mi j...

The Black Book Movie Review

  Chaos is what you get when you try to film movies like Hollywood without doing your homework well.  That kidnapping scene is one of the most chaotic and unorganized crime scenes ever. Like WTH!! Moving on, we have RMD and Olumide bonding that didn't give the vibes they were gunning for. Then the scene where Sam Dede called Bimbo Akintola on the phone asking who he should kill. Please what's the job of the two police men that were present at the scene? What's their work? Are they aesthetics? I expected them to go close to her immediately they realized she was communicating with the kidnappers. No, they stood like they were visitors checking family album. Mchew. It was after the conversation has ended that the soldier guy came to stand in front of her - like a mannequin.  Another thing, choice of soundtrack was shitty. What's "omo mi Seun rere" doing in that beach scene. I am rolling my eyes. All those half half conversations that were flying up and down, na r...
