If You Tell Them To Cook, They Will Do Shakara…

Women and their wahala sha o, women want you to define everything you do with them! The air you breathe with them, the food you eat with them, everything!!!! Like I have heard so many questions in my life: Who am I to you? What are we doing? Where do you see this going? Am I cooking for you just because you’re hungry or you feel like eating my food? Do you tell every girl to cook for you? And then to pour salt on injury you now get statements like I don’t just cook for anybody Cooking is intimate…

How Nkataa.com Saves Marriages Part 3

Abu and Aisha have as a result of our encounter become part of Nkataa. The three of us are fast becoming close friends too. I think I really adore them because they inspire me. They treat one another with such regard and respect, and it is so clear they are in love. This is a beautiful sight to witness firsthand. I have even had the opportunity of visiting Abu and Aisha’s home, by personally delivering their grocery orders twice. They have also come to the Nkataa headquarters a few times.

How Nkataa.com Saves Marriages Part 2

I wanted to know how I had been involved in something I admired from a distance, so I asked “ sorry I didn’t get that, how did I save your marriage?” Aisha was the first to talk, actually Abu tried to talk first, but then Aisha gave him one look and he fell in submission to her beautiful smile. She said so briefly “I hate going to the market that’s all, nothing deep,” she laughed. In fact we moved on from the topic to how our service and product offerings had improved. Aisha was excited that Nkataa now sells products…

I was next to our Nkataa.com stand when I saw this young looking married couple who looked so in love!

Is Arsenal Out of The Champion’s League Already?

Football fans around the world have written Arsenal off even before the kick off whistle. If people’s opinions are stronger than our efforts then why do we try to succeed at all? Ben Carson against all manner of opinions proved that our efforts are stronger than peoples opinions as long as we don’t give up. How about Phyno? They said, “he won’t go far”, because “he is local” [connect] but today, being local trends more than anything. Michael Jordan didn’t get selected in his high school basketball team but he ended up being the greatest ever basket baller in history.…

Worker Of The Year 2015

I think this was one of the most difficult decisions that I had to make in 2015. How do I decide? Should it be the earliest person at work or one whose work requires the most physical efforts? Or one who may not necessary be the first at work but may have been thinking about a million and one ideas on their way to work and the moment they get to work, ideas flow for the team to run with? Or maybe the one who is just the most consistent It was really difficult for me to select from a…
