    I have been on a bit of a world tour. Let me describe to you the men I saw in my voyages. As of July 12, 2025- I am concluding that (for now)- My business with Prof, albeit a wild situationship, is most freeing. He never lies. He is a feminist. He is sexy AF.…

    Swingers. Open Marriage. Libertinage…Africans love to look down on these modern sexual movements but that’s a tad bit more sophisticated than what y’all be doing…. MIC DROP. In too many African contexts: A is married to B but sleeps with her gym instructor C on the low. B too has a side lover, sister D…

    The following will sound like a Nollywood scene; I am afraid, it is not … Sunday after church, I joined a friend for lunch to a local Nigerian spot. I wore a bodycon bright red dress that screamed confidence; this was likely my first sin. We sat in close proximity with, as I later found…

    I hung out with the Rwandan aunties today. Dad was in town so they got to meet him. I was nervous they’d tell him about all the times I spoke back or rolled my eyes. I wasn’t nervous about them sharing any boy drama because (1) I tell dad about all my suitors so nothing…

    The land of a thousand hills. The land of milk and honey. The land of a majestic people. Home to the endangered specie, Mountain Gorilla. God’s resting place. In that East African Eden, women don’t age and men still have shame. Somehow though, I have never had a Rwandan boyfriend. They don’t understand me and…

    Long ago, a rumor was started (by Rwandans) that Rwandan women are the most beautiful of Africa. As the nation sought to preserve its reign in a championship that has no medal, we implored the “unfit” to kindly excuse themselves to the back of the line.

    My family originates from what is today considered the Southern Province of Rwanda and before it was Huye, it was Butare. Before that, Belgian colonial masters, had the effrontery, the audacity, the impertinence, the chutzpah (**new word alert**), to call that very African city, Astrida, after their-queen-who-was-no-Gicanda, Queen Astrid. Before this writing takes a turn,…

    “Genocide is only possible when dehumanization happens on a massive scale, and the perfect tool for this job is propaganda.” In broad daylight, shameless animators at propaganda radio known as RTLM, called for the annihilation of Tutsis. So very convinced of the efficacity of their masterplan, they often bragged: “Umwana Uzavuka Azabaze Uko Abatutsi Bari…
