A little girl attends her first day in a new school. A boy sneers at her and says, ‘You are fat like a buffalo.’ The class bursts into laughter. The girl rushes into the restroom to weep while the boy who is himself battling abandonment from home feels cool at the attention he receives from …
On this particular night, Yetunde went for a prayer vigil. The venue of the meeting was her prayer partner’s house. She left behind her husband, Yemi, a 22 year old spiritual daughter and two kids. Her spiritual daughter, Opeoluwa, has a very beautiful body. Front-set. Back- enormous. Hips-on point. Face-attractive. The kids were fast asleep …
