Amos 3;3, “Can two walk together unless they be agreed?” By the time you are done with this write up, you will wonder when #PEO became involved in anything politics related. As I am also wondering. You will also wonder if I knew the man from some years back. As I am also wondering. […]
You Have Not Restarted Your Brain in Thirty Days.
“Citizens, this is the third and last reminder to present yourselves at the state headquarters for the monthly Cerebral Service Restarting (CSR). As you are aware, failure to do so within a week of this announcement equals instant transfer to Area 0Z as the government would not take responsibility for anyone’s brain malfunction and eventual […]
When We Just Got Back From Kenya… Once Upon A Time… 17 years Ago.
Today, I would be talking about some things I grew up believing were taboos and ‘unchristianly’; things I thought were automatic tickets to hell. Making didi-adimole: thinking about this, I cannot help but wonder how I could even think this. Well, I had never seen my mother make that style of hair. She had never […]
I Know Why Nigeria is Poor and I Need Your Help to Make it Right.
I was privy to be a part of the Money Cloud Reports Meeting (MCRM) which held at California this year. Stay with me. God arrived quite late because He had to attend to a last minute emergency that came up in Africa’s most populous country. No name calling… Yet. While waiting, I watched angels troop […]

Resuming into the department of Medicine, I knew I had twelve weeks of hard work, moving stuff and watching people die or at least taking a long time to recover if they ever did. I also knew i was to share the twelve weeks between two units. Dear God, please not neurology. This was not […]
HOW FAR? HOW DARE YOU?
Recently, a video on neonatal resuscitation being done outside Nigeria was put on twitter with the caption, “Nigerian doctors, how far?” The outrage from doctors was totally expected. There was no way that comment was going to be ignored. That video showed the basics that any doctor who has obtained the appropriate degree should […]

Some people are so lucky and they may not know how lucky they are till they finish reading this write-up. When an individual realises they have made a mistake and they have in the process, hurt or offended, people, the reactions are usually more or less like a cascade. 1. The, “oh shoot, how did […]
SWEET VENGEANCE, SWEETHEART VII
“Dr. Olonisakin, your attention is needed in the emergency room…” I inwardly groaned at the announcement over the PA. Today was meant to be my chilling day. Most of my patients came in over the past three days and Thursday was supposed to be mine. Now, I was being summoned to the emergency… Of all […]
On This Matter of Social Media; O Jewa Safe Us o! Or Not.
I am intrigued by the rate at which bants on social media, especially Twitter, have tilted drastically towards sex, hustling and making money by whatever means possible, comparisons between artistes and footballers and advice for relationships and marriages. Do not even get me started on those who talk about marriage as if it is the […]
