Misery... When you are 29, Single & Nigerian

And unemployed. You'd wake up to 'good morning' text messages and emails you wish were from Mr Right. The SMS from 33113, asking you to subscribe to Kano Nwankwo football tips at ₦20 per day, the email from Jobberman, informing you about 143 marketing job openings in Osogbo...in 'a reputable company', as they refer to themselves in job vacancies. 
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 print.
