Smut Abyss by David West Onengiye
Her body felt numb; the painless feeling that outweighed the pain she had in her mind. She was trapped both in her mind and in the rubble. Her body craved for feeling, for movement, for freedom. This was the usual feeling she had even before she was trapped in the ruins of her fallen apartment. Her tear glands managed to produce a single tear whose … Continue reading Smut Abyss by David West Onengiye
Wildest Dream by Ibi Mfoniso Kontein
The million dollars were delivered to me in cash My joy knew no bounds, this was a big stash Everyone was clapping and cheering I shook hands with the project manager, he seemed endearing I grinned at the bundle of money A thousand ideas swirled in my head, sweeter than honey I marched up to my landlord’s door with a smirk on my face Cursed … Continue reading Wildest Dream by Ibi Mfoniso Kontein

Exploitation in Babcock
It has gone beyond rise in price to outright exploitation. Last semester, there was a hike in the price of bag of water, bread, keke fair, etc. As bad as that was, students were still buying these things because everyone needs water to survive, and everyone eats bread. But this semester, the price of things have sky rocketed, it is sad and heart breaking that such exploitation would be … Continue reading Exploitation in Babcock
The Invite
Mother never called out our names in full; no, not on weekdays. However, she did shout them out on Sundays—every Sunday morning, when we woke up late for Church. ‘You children are spoilt,’ she would say, ‘E ti baje ju. Is it because your father has travelled again?’ But it was a Tuesday. The sun had begun its daily three-hour madness, sparing nothing under it … Continue reading The Invite

Recently, staffs are … Continue reading Earpiece for sale

Now, we can see a seemingly bigger, better and finer structure springing up. We hope the food sold there would also become bigger. There is also a swimming pool under construction … Continue reading Construction in Babcock

At some point, our dear school authority wanted to start asking for ID Cards to grant entrance to the cafeteria. But the most recent need for ID card is … Continue reading ID Card Now A Requirement for Worship Card Collection
