  • What is beauty? You're sure to get a range of opinions on that, but for me what's beautiful is kind people living a good life. It's a little hard to find that in the stressful urban centers of Nigeria like Lagos, but the countryside is always a different story. I knew we had to escape the city. There was just one problem: I was told we might be kidnapped if we tried to travel out of town by road.

      To be honest most parts of Africa, if you meet a farmer at his farm he'll try to make you feel very comfortable and also give you so much farm produce. Am a Kenyan and my mum had so many chicken a while ago. Whenever a visitor came she would tell us "fry or boil some eggs for the visitor" then when the visitor is leaving, she would give some eggs or even a whole tray. May her soul rest in peace.

    I want to thank James for representing the Yorubas as OMO OKOs and not as Omo Ale. God bless you my brother. I’ll seek you and have a drink with you on my next visit to Ibadan City.
    Tommy, you deserve marrying this Ugandan lady, Josey. She’s amazing. She’s a lady of great quality. A master class indeed. Everything about her is positively beyond expression. Her laughter alone is natural and it’s out of this world.
    But if you don’t want her, I have a friend who’ll be glad to dress her finger with a huge diamond ring.
    Thanks again Tommy for the job that you’re doing for humanity. God bless you brother.
