  • House: The One Year We Lived at Work. 2

      The next phase of my life came slowly but steadily. It crept on me like the first trickles of menstrual flow down the thighs… first hesitatingly, then gaining a little speed with more confidence and then, gushing like a burst dam.   The little comments started; “Where would you even want to work.” “What…

  • House: The One Year We Lived at Work. 1

      While we were in medical school, for most of us, we were only certain of two steps after medical school; housemanship and NYSC. For those who were averse to either, they probably were more sure of their future than the rest of us or they were utterly lost. That is, they were either dead…

  • In View of Seun Onigbinde, Twitter Critics and the Lion’s Den_ Eunice Writes.

    Amos 3;3, “Can two walk together unless they be agreed?”   By the time you are done with this write up, you will wonder when #PEO became involved in anything politics related. As I am also wondering. You will also wonder if I knew the man from some years back. As I am also wondering.…

  • You Have Not Restarted Your Brain in Thirty Days.

    “Citizens, this is the third and last reminder to present yourselves at the state headquarters for the monthly Cerebral Service Restarting (CSR). As you are aware, failure to do so within a week of this announcement equals instant transfer to Area 0Z as the government would not take responsibility for anyone’s brain malfunction and eventual…

  • When We Just Got Back From Kenya… Once Upon A Time… 17 years Ago.

    Today, I would be talking about some things I grew up believing were taboos and ‘unchristianly’; things  I thought were automatic tickets to hell.   Making didi-adimole: thinking about this, I cannot help but wonder how I could even think this. Well, I had never seen my mother make that style of hair. She had never…

  • I Know Why Nigeria is Poor and I Need Your Help to Make it Right.

    I was privy to be a part of the Money Cloud Reports Meeting (MCRM) which held at California this year. Stay with me. God arrived quite late because He had to attend to a last minute emergency that came up in Africa’s most populous country. No name calling… Yet. While waiting, I watched angels troop…

  • SWEET VENGEANCE, SWEETHEART VIII.

    The movies have taught us that in their dying moments, most people, if able, have one or more favors to ask. Usually, they were inclined to having their children and loved ones around them. Although, there were those who would rather their loved ones not see them go out that way. then, there were those…

  • Mummy, How Are you Enjoying That Bag?

    Some months before I started housejob, I went shopping with my mother and sister. We were, by faith, preparing for the induction whose date was yet unannounced as at that time. From their excitement, one would wonder if they were the ones getting inducted or me. They were all about should we wear matching clothes,…

  • Neurology Took Some of Me.

    Resuming into the department of Medicine, I knew I had twelve weeks of hard work, moving stuff and watching people die or at least taking a long time to recover if they ever did. I also knew i was to share the twelve weeks between two units. Dear God, please not neurology. This was not…

  • HOW FAR? HOW DARE YOU?

    Recently, a video on neonatal resuscitation being done outside Nigeria was put on twitter with the caption, “Nigerian doctors, how far?”   The outrage from doctors was totally expected. There was no way that comment was going to be ignored. That video showed the basics that any doctor who has obtained the appropriate degree should…
