Treasure

When would I be free from myself? When will I muster up the courage to
tell her I love her? Why is life so cruel?

I see her coming out from the big PS Hall and I just can't help
but think about her, I've known her since last semester, I know her
name, I know everything about her, she's the last of 3 children, she
loves watching soccer, she supports Barcelona, I've been stalking her
for the past five months, am not sure she knows I exist but I know
everything about her, I know her twitter and instagram handles by
heart, I brag about her to my friends, I tell them "my Treasure is
better than all your girlfriends".

I know she would never go for a guy like me, why would she? Am
like an old paper in a hoody. Nothing can happen between us, so for
the time being she will continue to be my "Mental Girlfriend, My
Treasure"

OMALICHA

Omalicha has always been my seat mate from Primary 2 and now we are in Primary 4, I've known everything about her, she likes Uduak the short calaber boy in our class, I don't even know why she liked him, he was not even brilliant and I even asked my sister Adaku if he is fine and she said "NO".
Omalicha is the prettiest girl in our class, her dad owns the bakery factory across the road, I know everything about her and I can go on and on about her but there is no time for that, am not sure if she even knows how to pronounce my full name Kolakanikome, she just calls me "Kaykay" and oh God I love it when she calls me that, she knows me as that brilliant boy that sells Ugwu for his mum after school.

I've always had a crush on her from primary two when I first saw her, and she doesn't even know its because of her I read to take the first position, I wanted to impress her but that just made me her "home work boy" and would she ever know I do her own assignments before mine? Does she know that most times I write the wrong answers for myself, so that she would score the highest, but what do I get? Just a "aii Thank you Kaykay" and "you are very brilliant oh" and I sit and watch her follow Uduak to ANTY Anthonia's shop to buy him puff puff.

I sit and watch my crush go home everyday with Uduak, (that name I've come to hate each day) and I wonder if I will ever let her know I like her but how do I tell her, so I just bottle up my feeling, like I've done for two years now and moreover it just one year that's left and then we would be through with Primary school, and at least I can be free from the endless torment but for now "Thank you kaykay" is my "I like you kaykay"

Letter To My 22 Year Old Self

I've been wanting to write you this..........

First of all I would ask you , are you now serving at your NYSC
camp ground in Ogun State?

While you were still in school did you see the girl, the one I've
always wanted you to see, I hope she is cute and that she loves
writing and rapping, I hope she controls her speech, I hope you have
not told her that you would marry her yet, just make hear a friend but
don't let anybody snatch her away from you,

You graduated with first class abi?? did those people in uniport
give you that scholarship?? I hope you told Professor Martins
Ifeanacho that he is the best lecturer you have ever seen.

Did you open that business at Abuja park close to mama abuja?
Did you write to Rhonda Byrne again? Did you get to meet Chimamanda
Ngozi Adichie? Did you ask her how she got such talent to write those
nice books, did you tell her that I love Kambili the character she
brought to life in that book Purple Hibiscus?

Guy, are you still shy as usual or have you changed? Do you
still slim fit your trousers and shirts?

I hope you are now an elder or a ministerial servant? I hope
you've stopped imagining things, are you still on twitter? please give
twitter less time, am sure it would no longer be fun, do you still
like magical movies? I hope you have so many female friends.

Before I forget please be fast with that your NYSC thing and
start your MSc programme fast fast, have you met Dbanj, Rihanna,
Messi, 2face, Justin Bieber, M.I, Bill Gate, Mark Zuckerberg, Dangote,
Warren Buffet and the rest (you know them) in person?? if you have not
done so please be fast. Did you become a uniport celeb like we always
dreamed, Hope you still talk to those our friends (don't have to
mention names, you know them).

I hope you have told Tomi Adesina, Walter Shakes and the TNC
crew that am a big fan

Why Our Girls Must Be Brought Back!

The say its 273!, yes 273,
The say some escaped, I know they
would
because a Nigerian Girl with Education can do anything
can escape from terrorists.
A Nigerian Girl with Education is a threat to terrorism
I ask myself most times,
Why didn't they kidnap them from the club?
Or from their houses?
No, they didn't,
they chose the school,
because they are scared of what she will do if she`s educated.
People say "A Pen is Mightier than the Sword"
I say "An Educated Nigerian Girl is Mightier than thousands of men with AK47`s and bullet proofs
They chose to keep the girls because they don't want more CHIMAMANDA`s, more BUCHI EMECHETA`s, more OMOTOLA`s, more CHIOMA CHUKWUKA`s, more GENEVIEVE
No, they don't want that to happen.

I put it to them: if they are not scared of the Nigerian Girl, then they should bring her back and watch her destroy them.

BRING BACK OUR GIRLS,
I want to read more BOOKS
I want to see more MOVIES
I want to see more EDUCATED WOMEN
I want to see more NATION BUILDERS
Above all, I want to see more MOTHERS!!!!!

The Things They Never Told Us

They never told us that you don't find love, that love finds you!

They never told us that life is filled with ups and downs, that our
decisions makes us who we are

They never thought us to adapt to situations

They never told us that there would be a time in ones life when living
would no longer be fun, they always told us that suicide is bad, they
never told us the benefits of suicide, of how it puts all our pains
and agony to an end! They never told us that life is cruel and that
death is sweet, they never told us that when we die, that we become
free men, owing no debt neither are we owed, they never told us that
death is FREEDOM!

They never told us that love is like a cage, that when you love from
the heart, then you start dying, no they never told us that there
would be heartbreaks, they never told us that true love is hard to
find, they never told us that people change, and that our loved ones
would one day become our foes, they never told us that communication
is very important in a relationship, they never told us that you never
stop loving rather you reduce it to the lowest minimum, they always
told us to get over heart breaks and betrayals but they never showed
us how to do it. They never told us that one day we would love the
wrong ones, they never taught us how to stop loving them no they
didn't.

Uniport Tales Episode 1

Back to my story, after writing my two JAMB exams I had already lost hope and was thinking of writing another one come 2014, but with Gods help I was admitted into the University Of Port Harcourt. Lemme tell you how it went down,

That night I was sitting down chatting with somebody special, we were deep into the chat that none of us wanted it to stop and it was already 11pm and my parents and my older sibling were like Alice in Wonderland, while chatting Emmanuel my guy just sent me a ping:
Emmanuel: "Guy 2nd Admission List is Out o"
Brill: "Its a lie, I just checked it this afternoon" I lied
Emmanuel: Check again, they just released it now
Brill: Okay

I reluctantly opened my opera mini and typed www.uniport.edu.ng on my URL space, the page opened, I scrolled down to the "LATEST NEWS" feature on the site, then I saw it boldly written "2ND ADMISSION LIST" my heart was racing and I am sure that my heart could run faster than Usain Bolt at that moment, I prayed silently, then clicked on the download button (it was in PDF format) at the same time I was still chatting but this time I delayed before replying not because I was busy but because all that was on my mind was what this list held for me, I went back to see how far it was going, then all I saw was "DOWNLÓADED" from all corners of the phone, I put the phone down so that I would be sure that this was really my phone cos the "DOWNLOADED" could be seen from all angles, has my phone turned to a 5D phone? I asked myself, bracing myself up I picked up the phone, opened the file and scrolled down, I thought about typing my name for it to search by itself, I discarded the idea, so I scrolled down, I opted in to Study Economics, so I quickly scrolled down to the letter "E" I scrolled down one after the other slowly, before I knew it I was through with "E", I still scrolled up again, cross checked twice and then I knew my name was not there, I didn't panic, I just kept scrolling down, cos I've heard of people who were not given the course they chose but were given other courses, so I still had little hope, then I got to the letter "P" (Political Science) I scrolled down, when I got to #46 I received the shocker of my life, I saw my name there I calmed down scrolled to confirm if it was really me, I knew my Registration number off hand so I cross checked it and it was ME! I screamed and my Parents and Sibling woke up

Uniport Tales: Prologue

Am Brill from Imo State, the last of 3 children (3 boys). Left secondary school 2012, got admission into the UNIVERSITY OF PORT HARCOURT (Uniport) 2013 . Writing JAMB wasn't easy, while in secondary school, I had always believed that JAMB was simple (yes, because I was intelligent), I was the Senior Prefect of my school back in secondary school. Lemme take you back a little to my secondary school days. After school that sunny wednesday me and my class mate Ifeanyi went to buy our JAMB forms, when we got to the Business Center we saw a beautiful lady sitting close to the computer screen in front of her, the shop was big not very big but it was bigger than most of the business centers I've ever seen, when we walked close to the Lady`s desk she raised her head up lo and behold this lady was more beautiful than we thought, I eyed my friend who smiled, changing his voice he said "we want to buy JAMB forms" she didn't smile at all she just kept staring at us, maybe because of our school uniforms or because we were cute, I didn't know but all I knew was that she was staring at us, finally she said something "it is 5,500 Ñaira for everything" her voice was out of this world, I had already started imagining her being my girlfriend, wife or something, I just couldn't stop looking at her, drowned in my imagination I let my friend do all the talking, I knew he must have been wondering what's wrong, why I am not saying anything cos he knows I love to talk but at that moment I didn't care what he would think I just thought about this beautiful lady in front of me, I came back to life when Ifeanyi tapped me to bring my own money, I quickly searched through my already scattered pocket, brought out the money and gave it to her, she motioned us to sit down while she brought the forms, we sat down and she called "Adam, bring two forms" Adam a short man, who looked rough and maybe in his late twenties brought the forms and handed it over to us, we took it and filled them then handed it back to her.

Open Letter To My Fellow Nigerians by @itsbrill

Good day y`all, I've been reading a lot of open letters this days, so
I decided to write mine. Join Me as we travel


I was reading a post yesterday on Linda Ikeji`s blog, Popular
comedian Bright Okpocha aka Basket Mouth, put up a joke on Facebook
about how Nigerian guys spend so much unlike their counterparts in
other countries, in the joke he mentioned "RAPE" and I was surprised
at some peoples comment, some said he encouraged rape and so forth,
okay, we all know he is a comedian, and that comedians say many things
just to make people laugh. When you go to shows you see that comedians
even insult their host and other dignitaries there and nobody takes it
personal, so I want to ask....... Why Must Nigerians take this one
personal? The only answer to that question is the fact that this
people are lame in their reasoning, or maybe this people might have
been raped before or may even be rapist themselves (why I say so is
because people usually condemn things publicly meanwhile they are the
real ones doing it, if you don't agree with me scrutinize yourself
properly, try to remember something your sibling did and you scolded
him meanwhile you also do it). Why can't we as Nigerians stop taking
things too personal? While ASUU was on strike how many students wrote
open letters to ASUU or FG? But I've seen so many letters directed at
Basket Mouth, Please We need to stop this Hypocrisy and admit the fact
that we all have sinned against our Creator, yet anytime we ask for
forgiveness he still forgives us.


When Maheeda the so called gospel singer started posting nudes,
Nigerians finished her, calling her all sort of names, but lemme ask
you ARE YOU BETTER THAN HER? I know some of you would say "Yes" but if
we can be more truthful to ourselves we are not better than her, lemme
tell you why: fornication, posting nudes, adultery, stealing, murder,
rape all are the same (don't be deceived) no sin is small and none is
big, because Maheeda posted her nude pictures online doesn't make you
the one who fornicates everyday better than her.... Or is it because
we haven't caught you?


Chika Ike is one girl whom I've started to love now, when she spent
900k in one hotel in Dubai for one night, people were calling her
names, please lemme use this medium to ask IS IT YOUR MONEY?? Where
you there when she was hustling for it?? Why is it paining you?? Now
you want to come and talk, please if you can't afford to live such
life don't insult those who can, after all did they tell you not to
hustle so that you can live large too??

I know most people will say: "my comments are mine, since we have
freedom of speech I can say anything" but please lemme remind you, its
their life, and also remember that you no holy pass. So next time if
you want to comment on Linda`s blog or on 360nobs or any other blog
please search your heart before you comment, are you better than that
person you want to haul insults on? If after much scrutiny, you are
not better than them, please just read the post and don't comment, it
would be appreciated but if you know you are PERFECT please read and
comment and don't forget that God dislikes hypocrites, so do you want
God to dislike you? Am sure nobody wants that (Remember the woman in
the bible)


Don't Judge that you may not be Judged




PS: Am not in support neither am I against their doings. Those above
are my thoughts, feel free to agree or disagree but before you insult
me remember "SCRUTINIZE YOURSELF".
