IDLEMINDSET | ONE THING, AND THEN ANOTHER

Posted on May 13, 2013 by ayosogunro • 9 Comments

Today, let’s start  with weddings. Or more accurately, let’s start with wedding rings. Now, this is just a random starting point, but wedding rings will do for now, seeing as we love nothing better than to upset your Mondays.

IDLEMINDSET | GOD’S OWN TEAM AND PLENTY TROUBLE TOO

Posted on February 4, 2013 by ayosogunro • 26 Comments

You know we are asking for trouble on Idlemindset when we reference God in what is clearly an irreligious blog. Now that its virtually becoming Nigerian law not to take God’s name in vain, we really can’t predict the response of you, our dear, religiously sentimental, readers.

My Book: Everything in Nigeria is Going To Kill You

Everything in Nigeria is Going To Kill You

THE PARADOXICAL LIFESTYLE OF THE AVERAGE NIGERIAN IS THE SUM OF THIS BOOK... My relentless pursuit of an understanding of the survival abilities of the average Nigerian in a system that is definitely dysfunctional. Some of us complain, some of us protest, some of us go spiritual and still many others go material, and also a few of us turn to the arts for solace—we write, not to cure other people of madness, but to avoid going mad ourselves…
