Friendship is a magical connection that binds individuals together, transcending boundaries and cultural differences. It is a testament to the innate human spirit, exemplifying the shared desire for companionship, understanding, and support. From our earliest years to our twilight days, friendship shapes our lives in profound ways, providing joy, comfort, and a sense of belonging. We will explore the significance of sharing the human spirit through friendship and the profound impact it has on the world.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY ABE!

My friend.

My Homie.

My bestie.

All one word but all applying to him; ABRAHAM IGOCHE ONCHE.

Abe has been one of my ‘bestest’ friends in this world. He is a witty, crazy, nerdy and totally impossible person who has the greatest love for humanity. Abe is one of the best, albeit laziest, writer I know. LOL. Don’t be mad dearie. True genius takes its time right? LOL. His penmanship is brilliant and his ability to weave stories is something I envy. His works are expressed on his blog - ONELARGEXPREZZO.

Goodbye Yola! Thanks for the Hard Knocks!

Farewell from Yola

The first time I visited Yola, Adamawa state, was when I went for my National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) in October 2012. It was the first time in my life that I went far from home…and for me, it was my final escape from all I knew.
