The Revolution of African Prints in Power Dressing for a contemporary Man.

Image
                             African prints have been elaborated into lofty mediums of arts especially in west-Africa. The aesthetics which African prints denotes can never be over-emphasized; bold, repeating, intricate motifs and designs represented with beautiful hues.                                                        HAPPY NEW YEAR MY PEOPLE!  Hope we are doing great?

pink - A Fashion Statement.

Image
In a mans staple, the colour 'pink' is usually under-represented. And that is a rue and abuse to the colour-wheel, Because when habituated properly – rather than as a posterior– pink is a personage. Wearing a pink outfit gives you an adoring personality, it gives your audience a different visual effect about your personality, pink makes a statement. Most men, see pink as a hue belonging to the ladies alone. But I tell you that that is a totally wrong notion. However, pink will go with any warm colour, but will go well if paired with white or off-white and black pants. In doubt you can wear pink and then still make a statement among your contemporaries. Up till now, I didn't know that pink will go so well until this moment. I didn't plan to wear a pink sweater today, I woke up this morning with the whole room covered in darkness at about 5am, there was no power supply this morning to iron the cloths i planned to wear and i needed to get to class as early as 8am this morn...

Was it independence?

Nigeria 58 years ago and Nigeria today has no difference, the only difference between Nigeria in this contemporary period and Nigeria 58 years ago is the fact that now, we now wear cloth and walk like humans. Now, my question is, through the throe and colic  Nigeria went through to secure her freedom from the 'Whiteman,' what special proceeds did a common Nigerian learn from the colonial masters during the pre-colonial era? Perhaps, we struggeld through sweat and blood to become a sovereign nation for nothing, it took the people of Nigeria almost a hundred decade or more to secure independence and freedom for themselves. We licked the white mans 'ass'  in order to bear our own indigenous names, rule our own people. Chinua Achebe could only vent his anger on the colonial masters only through the magical prowess of his pen; encapsulated with African griot and the lore of the ancient igbo society. Things fall apart literally depicts that, through the coming of the 'whi...

Wuches Independence Story!

Thereafter, the people within the borders of Nigeria were known to the world as ‘‘Nigerians,’’ but in reality this designation meant little to most people, whose lives continued to be primarily centered on local communities that had existed for hundreds and thousands of years. this past 57 years, i see it as the medieval period, the dark age Nigeria experienced. starting from today renaissance has taken place. i see greater height for Nigeria if we the confused citizens are ready to CHANGE! HAPPY INDEPENDENCE!!! its not a new thing that today marks exactly 57 years of  independence  from the colonial masters, it seemed so sudden, But it took a long time. we got independence!  that time came and we were granted the freedom to rule ourselves and become a sovereign nation. everyone was happy  that, we could  finally rule ourselves. but Nigerians never saw the great storm coming, the storm of selfishness, the storm that stormed over millions of Nigerians during the...
