    Thanks for reading scopeman. The way Adunni writes amazes me every time I read her words. Reading her weekly column in the Punch, where she mixes satire with logic, makes me to always stare in awe at my screen anytime I’m reading her Punch’s column online. She does have a reader’s attention with her writing [...]

    @Elly Turtoe. I will let you know. Please can I have your contact so that information can be passed through it to you? Your observation is apt; her marketing for the first printing was poor despite the fact that the book will beat some half-baked Nigerian fictions making the rounds on coveted international and local shortlist [...]

    Thanks Jaywriter. Thanks for calling the post s cool one…

    Thumbnail Abimbola Aduuni Adelakun is the author of the pastoral novel, Under the Brown Rusted Roofs , a book which perfectly uses Yoruba folklore to mirror the malaises of the country, the joy and sorrow that exist in the communal relationship of the Yoruba and the polygamy of the patriarchs. She writes for the Punch Newspaper as an Opinion [...]

    What makes a short story good is not in complexities; simplicity scribbled with narrative-honesty is what makes a short story a good read. This is exactly what you’ve done to this. Well done, man.

  • Joseph Omotayo commented on the blog post Call me a story teller   4 weeks ago · View

    I love the style you powerfully employed to bring important issue to bare while still making the reader to feel relaxed with the way you amuses from the first word of the post to the last. Well done, man…

    The story is vivid to follow through. It really touched my emotions while reading.

    @Elly Turtoe. I hope that happens too. I maintain a positive heart that it will be soon. Thanks reading…

    @Clinton Ifeanyi McDubus. I was never comfortable using it either. It was like something was making me feel ashamed whenever I loaded a page with it. I sincerely hope NCC see into the prices too.

    Thanks for reading…

    Complete short story. I like the way the characters were fleshed out in the piece. Good job, man..

    @Tola. My Correction: I meant ‘Tobi’ not ‘Mutiu’

  • Joseph Omotayo commented on the blog post Get Your ‘Browsing Cheats’ Here   1 month, 4 weeks ago · View

    @ Tola. My choice of diction in that part was to engage the creative thoughts of my readers, I never wanted to lay everything bare. It was crafted in way that only one’s reasoning will be what will determine what deep meaning one is able to come up with… I used ‘glued’ because Mutiu caught [...]

    @emmanuel. I agree with you; the prices for these bundles are not only expensive but damn too exploitative! I don’t think mere competition between these service providers will resolve the issue, since the recent past competitions have only affected the charges on Call-Making alone. For transparency and price-uniformity to be introduced in the way Mobile [...]

    Thanks for reading Raymond. Yeah…, honesty was the apt word that made this piece up. Thank you.

  • Joseph Omotayo commented on the blog post Get Your ‘Browsing Cheats’ Here   1 month, 4 weeks ago · View

    @Tola. What particular part didn’t you understand? Thanks for concluding that you found the piece informative.

    I doff my cap for message too. But I believe little creativity helps spread the message faster.

    ‘sometimes the shortest way around is the longest way home’… Hmm… That’s just one of the thoughts and words that keeps tugging at your brain when you are taking a turn from the mainstream…

    @Ld Otakpor. Thanks for the comment. I’m reading it over now to check out for the few typos and correct it in the main document on my computer. I appreciate your candid observation…

    @Jaywriter. Yes, sometimes it could be affordable, but just sometimes when you have got to calculate the stress you have to go through in searching for cheats. GSM providers (MTN, Etisalat, Glo and Airtel)make it more worser when they ridiculously measure out internet access at various expensive subscriptions. It will only take a strong personal [...]
