Chineze Eziamaka: How Merry Was Your 2017 Christmas Celebration?

Christmas 2017 holidays started on a bit of a sour note for me.First, my car air conditioner suddenly stopped working. The husband promised to help me fix the issue, thinking it was gas or a minor electrical fault. I knew it was not a minor fault because I had taken it to the mechanic and he said something about compressor and N18000. I ran at the mention of N18000.It’s always been hard for me to spend on my car. I don’t know why; I always find a way to procrastinate, until my husband pays or I grudgingly pay after managing the issue for a bit.This time, I came home and told him I don’t know what is wrong with my car o.  In fairness to me I wasn’t being 100% sly, I was just hoping they misdiagnosed the problem the first time and a second opinion will come back with cheaper sounding news. *winks*.

Not all African women believe 'black is beautiful' and that’s OK - by Sede Alonge

I came across a somewhat controversial article on skin bleaching by African women in the UK Telegraph, written by a Nigerian writer and lawyer, Sede Alonge, and I thought to bring it here so we can read and discuss. Sola makes a case for women who bleach for why they shouldn't be made to feel like they are betraying their race for wanting to change their skin colour. Read below...
