Misery... When you are 29, Single & Nigerian
And then there's pressure... You are the first to drop a seed inside the offering basket whenever the preacher says, "At the sound of my voice, I prophesy a lady here will meet her husband before this week is over."
Your family members would keep on handing you posters of
deliverance church programmes going on for singles. Even when the venue is
seven villages & seven rivers away.
Your friends would set you up on dates with every bachelor on
their contact list. And the bouquet at your best friend’s wedding
would be specially packaged for you as your souvenir.
Your neighbours would hide behind your back to say you are yet to
attract a husband because, "You are just adding weight anyhow."
You can't air your opinion on trivial issues publicly, because you
have refused to 'Go & marry!'
People on social media would nickname you 'Aunty Gwegegwe', and
you won't get upset, because even Google does not know the meaning.
29,
Single & Nigerian is an emotional gripping and humorous narrative of a 29 year old
lady trying to survive in Lagos by all means. The novel is available only in
