Okay, this crisis in Iraq caused by ISIS with the current highlight being the beheading of American journalist James Foley is just too much! I’ve been following the story in Iraq with concerned interest for a while and after watching the emotional rescue of some 20 Iraqi Yazidis from the mountains I was determined to write a post about it.

So, here goes! LOVE LIFE, MAN ISSUES, BLA BLA BLA I’m someone who takes pride in her emotional independence and … Continue reading 2014 . My Year of Self Discovery
The very night I arrived Jos for my vacation, a very good friend of mine: D, called to say there was going to be a music event taking place not too far off the next day. In Jos everywhere is not-too-far-off – it’s that accessible, haha. I may or may not have mentioned this, but for several years (seven, actually) I and a couple of friends planned and hosted live music concerts in Jos. Relocating to Lagos put an end to that era and I’ve been very slow in re-entering the industry, but I digress – this isn’t about me. … Continue reading Jos Dairies I / Song Review: “Acoustic Hope” by Sekyen
