Tinder Swindler has me thinking about a Nigerian man I met in Paris in 2005.
A friend (a retired model) invited me to meet him, said he was a childhood homie.
He was there with a party of usual suspects…governors, models of varying races, and then there was me, the guest.
A year ago my housekeeper earned 1500 cedis.
Today she earns 3500 cedis but it’s still just $250.
If I hadn’t reviewed her wages upward, her 1500 salary would now only be $100 a month.
People who are not in Ghana want to come here badly but this is no heaven for Ghanaians.
People need to understand what’s going on in
#Ghana
. They don’t get it!!!!! Forget the PR.
A decade ago $89 was 180 cedis.
Last year it 89 was bout 400 cedis.
Today $89 is 1000 cedis.
I had to double staff salaries last month so they can earn a living wage! NPP fokup!
A lot of women, are subconsciously and actively hoping to be rescued by men.
If you are it’s pretty easy to get caught up by Tinder Swindlers, Yoruba Demons, Email Love Scams, Sugar Daddies and Whatever else is out there.
Shine your eye.
I didn’t go to Monaco but I did go to the library cuz while he was legit and he was fine AF, I wasn’t looking to be rescued.
I was a broke college student. His wealth was HIS wealth. My eyes were not green.
His life was grand but what I really wanted was to pass my Econ exam

I was in my Junior year in college studying abroad and living on a budget of €50 a week which I earned working as an aupair.
Until I met him I had never had even walked in front of the Plaza. It was so lush I was afraid.
When my friend and I Went to his room, tub was gold.
Yeah so this Yoruba demon with skin and body Djimon Hounsou, said he really liked me and told me to follow him to Monaco for Grandprix. Those who know know 🙈.
There was a PJ to carry us.
Grandprix coincided with my final exam week but then this guy was fine and….
@afitoneleo
I was 19, he was 32.
He was everything I was raised to desire as an African woman. It was actually really hard but I knew I was the rule not the exception.
Only reason he invited me to Monaco was because I didn’t dick him in Paris.
He wanted to finish me. I no gree.
Everyone will lose. Everyone!
If we continue to put the thirst for power over people and progress no one wins.
For how long should young people be called to go to the streets? When will you call them to go to the factories you have built to work?

Me? I’m a Princess? Wow! I swooned.
He was perfect. I saw us traveling together to London, Lagos and Prague. Imagined the hotels and the room service and the everything.
Kissed dude a couple times already I was a Princess wow and he was offering me an all expenses paid life.
If anyone had told me my hair would grow so long in under 3 three years Ah no go believe. I’ll continue to drink my water and mind my business cuz it really helps.
My eldest brother died today in Freetown.
He was on holiday from the US with his family.
He had a fever yesterday. He took Tylenol. He went to sleep. This morning he was unresponsive.
Daddy said he was pronounced dead at the hospital.
Victor was 51. We are heartbroken.
He said he could get me a job tomorrow anywhere even if I didn’t finish my degree.
My friend confirmed it too. Like he could finance me 10x over.
I was 19!!!!!!! I saw my future sponsored luxury life flash before my eyes.
“Princess, are you coming with me to Monaco?”
Absolutely thrilled for all of us that Dr. Haja Ramatulai Wurie
@WurieHaja
is our incoming Minister of Technical & Higher Education.
Never met Dr. Wurie but people talk behind her back and they told me she supports and uplifts others, women especially. I’m a huge fan!
He was richie rich and everything Nollywood had told us was the dream Nigerian man.
To this day when I think of him I get moist. E fine so.
He gave me a day to decide. Would I go with him to Monaco…he said I didn’t have to worry about my exams.

Monaco did not happen for me in 2005 but did happen in 2012.
New Yoruba Demons were involved, there was a yacht, the Billionaire’s club, and the Grand Prix.

Under the leadership of President Bio, 13-year old British Sierra Leonean Malakai Bayoh made it to Britain Got Talent Finals. Wow! Wow! Human Capital Radical Diaspora Inclusion Relations Development Fourth Industrial Revolution 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 Talk and Does! Sing and Songs.
Speech was a missed opportunity. Sounded more like a campaign speech than a Presidential address after a national tragedy.
Should have spoken directly to the youth in Krio and assured them govt hears concerns. To deny protest was about economic hardship is gaslighting. Sad.
Eventually you just have to accept that finding a man to love and serve is the only thing that matters in life.
A woman who is not married will never find happiness.
Marriage has always been my dream and now that dream is here. 🥂

A woman who walks in purpose doesn’t have to chase people or opportunities. Her light causes people and opportunities to pursue her.
Water way na for you, no go run pass you!
In other news my father, 75, is getting married to his sweetheart in Sierra Leone tomorrow.
I was worried he may not be able to because of the curfew imposed today but mi papa na man. Marrade day bi ma!
His sweetie Janet is in her 60s. Thrilled for them.
Love is love!
I was born 2 love, and 4 love.

I can’t wait!!!

In jail one week, the next you’re headed to the presidential palace. Amazing to see the rise of a new generation of African leaders. 🥹

Dear
@PresidentBio
,
There have been several occasions when you needed to address the nation.
You have not. Not speaking when it was needed created a power vacuum.
Others have been addressing the nation everyday when you weren’t.
People need leadership and guidance from you.
I want to start a TV show called men who cook.
Different Sierra Leonean men come over and cook for me and we film it while we talk about masculinity, politics, Art, and family.
I also get to eat what you cook and smile 😃
