She threw it at his car and shattered the wind screen, he rushed for her and they continued fighting and insulting on the road, some by-standers rushed to separate them and a neighbor took her to their house to talk to her and Dj returned home with the neighbor’s husband. The kind neighbor gave her tea and a towel to clean up her face. She rested a while there, picked up her luggage, got a taxi and headed for the airport got a ticket for Abuja, with thoughts running wild and tears rolling down her cheek in her window seat,  in her heart she said “I’m  done with this mad man for good”...

Her mother was bewildered and kept mute but kept on praying. Dj called and text-ed her but she wouldn’t respond. Two days later Mr Briggs’ (Dj’ father) and Dj’ friend called her and talked with her. Later she called Dj and talked to him and she decided to go ahead with the wedding… Alas her big day was here with guests gaily dressed and seated in the church the groom arrived looking dapper in his navy blue tux with his groom’s men. Then the congregation was upstanding for the entry of the sweet looking bride, in time the church proceedings were done and they were pronounced man and wife. Excited, Adediji, planted a soft kiss on her lip as they left for a surprise honeymoon destination. A week later they returned home to thank family and friends for their support. Hannatu picked her suit cases from home to start her new life as Mrs Hannatu Briggs.  The goodbye was emotional she said, “I saw daddy with glassy eyes, that’s when it hit me, I was leaving behind th...

Hannatu was a final year student of Arch itecture and was already feeling the pressure of settling down. Her education didn’t pick up early, so by some unwritten standards she was due. She had her fair share of dating haggles – and a little extra on it – from dating her school mate who was a serial cheat, to Mr. know-all-family friend and to the highly recommended “friend” of a friend. Finally she decided to keep her final year date free.  In the course of the semester while working on her project she had a very difficult supervisor and the stress was weighing her down.

Hello there, it’s been quiet around here, thought I should answer a few questions people ask me about my works. A lot of time I get calls and messages asking me about the stories I featured on this blog if they are true life stories? how do I get them? e.t.c… well, the answer is YES, the stories on my blog are based on true life events in my life and those friends whom I seek their permission to write and share this story with you my readers.  I believe these stories would inspire you as they also inspire me in my trying moments…and also give some hope if you are passing through the same situation. The Identity of these people are kept hidden and the names used in my writings are fictitious and a coincidence if they bear semblance with any other person out there.
