(FES x.3)To Shop is to Walmart, Kudos to Iya Eleko
“Dear Eunice – If you could please return to Moffitt Health Center at your earliest convenience. You will need to ask for … when you go back. Regards,” I stared at the email in befuddlement. One of the things you need to sort out before enrollment is your medical clearance. We had been told to…

My routine back in Abeokuta was simple and rarely divergent. During week days, I focused on going to work during my shifts, recovering from the shifts, preparing for the next shifts and ensuring I eat. My active weekday social life was mostly zero. The most of my social life was lived through social media and…
