Akanbi's Poisonous Lily.





"Marry Ajike" everyone said,
"She'd make a better wife and give you Ibeji" They drummed in Akanbi's ears each passing day.

Akanbi simply shrugged their advice aside, his eyes on a more valuable gem.
A gem that glittered in the dark, with a body as smooth as 'osun'. Her aroma smells of coconut, of rosemary flower, and apple cider.

"See how perfect Ajike looks. You both would make a perfect fit" they'd say when Ajike passes, a gourd of water balanced on her head, her buxom ass swaying as she walked by.

The other boys would whistle and hold their groins at Ajike's receding backside that held no interest for Akanbi.

Only one woman made his blood boil in pleasure, only one made his groin ache with longing. That one that makes him want to faint with her "roboto" backside and tiny waistbeads that calls out to him when she walks down the stream.

Aduke is the name of the woman he loves, the one who makes one thousand and one Ajike look like they were nothing.

The one whose voice was sweeter than honey to his ears, the one whose  legs makes him imagine wondrous things he wants to do inbetween those long legs.

Aduke's beauty rivals the dazzling beauty of the stars, even the lilies and roses that grows in the garden can't compete with her fairness.

 Aduke is a masterpiece that the gods took time to mould on "Aiku" day. The day reserved for gods to rest.

Her eyes shone like the sun, windows that showed how amazing she is.
And when she smiles sweetly, the butterflies in Akanbi's stomach starts to collide with one another.

"I don't want Ajike. Aduke is who my heart yearns for" Akanbi summoned courage to tell him parents one day.

His mother let out a loud cry and flung herself on the mud floor, removing her head tie from her head and tying it around her waist.

His father's palm filled with "taba'' stopped in mid-air in its transit to his nose, as he stared at Akanbi as if he were the devil himself.

"How can you decide to marry a woman who has been married to five men and they had all died in marriage to her? " his mother wailed like a child rebuked for wetting the bed.

"But they are hearsays and stories without evidences " Akanbi persisted.  His father shook his head in pity and stood up to leave the room.

"If that is what you want, let's have a wedding on the next "eti" day.  I hope you know that is your funeral too. " his father's hoarse voice spat out before he stormed off to his "iyewu".

If they rode a horse in Akanbi's stomach, the horse won't miss a step. His joy knew no bounds as he went about preparing for his wedding to Aduke, oblivious to the long faces worn around by his family members.

Aduke's people were contacted and the marriage rites conducted on the 'eti' day, with the people from Akanbi's household showing up in black outfits and somber mood.

The newly weds got to their new home that night and proceeded to do what newly weds did, with Akanbi touching Aduke in all the places he had dreamt of and making her wet for him.

He quickly straddled her and brought  his "ogede agbagba" to the entrance of her "snail like" mould.

One thrust and he became enveloped in her moist wetness, shutting his eyes as he enjoyed the body of his new wife, oblivious to the transformation happening before him.

Appearing from Aduke's form came forth a wrinkled old creature, bearing a sharp dagger with glee as it licked  its toothless gum with its long spear like tongue.

The pain of the dagger piercing his heart brought Akanbi back from the land of pleasure, as he coughed up blood and slumped in death.

The creature knelt beside Akanbi's dead body, drinking every ounce of blood gushing from his body.

When it was satisfied, it repossessed Aduke's body, bringing her back to her human form.

By morning the story of how Akanbi was murdered by thieves went round the village. Some of the villagers gathered in front of her house to mourn her husband and console her, while others were present to wet their appetite for gossip.

Only people from Akanbi's  household didn't visit Aduke, for them they claimed their son died the night he decided he wanted to marry Aduke.

King Of Swazi chooses Wife, Publicly Test Girls' Virginity As They Dance Naked. (Photos)

A common tradition in Swaziland (Swazi) permits the King, Mswati, to choose a new bride every year. This is done in a festival named Swazi Reed Dance Festival where girls are paraded and tested publicly to know their virginity status. It has been a long time tradition in Swaziland and not the first time this controversial issue is making it into the news. Although, many consider this barbaric and backward, it’s a tradition the people willingly embrace as the aim is to help King Mswati choose a wife. As part of Swazi custom and norms, that time of the year has come, when the King chooses his bride and again, he has reportedly tested some of the volunteered girls’ virginity before choosing a wife for himself. Thousands of pretty virgins’ were seen in this year’s edition dancing topless for King Mswati III, on what is called the Reed Dance ceremony, also known as Umhlanga), hoping to be his next wife. The Reed Dance ceremony is an annual Swazi and Zulu tradition hel...

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...

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...
