Dr Opait chronicles

     Hello folks, long time no talk. A lot has happened since the last time I put pen to paper *pen to paper indeed* . Now a qualified and certified doctor, took my 1st flight in recent memory, *clears throat* was told i flew as a child, of which i have no memory of. Just wanna share the pics i took of the skies, everything looks good from above men.  don't remember cloud names, but i loved what my eyes saw.

stuck between  been lazy and watching a Chelsea vs juventus match, i must apologize for not completing this horrible experience of mine in the hands of men who remind me of my secondary school uniform. Well back to the story. My continuous beg of this officer was beginning to annoy me from the very core of my being. I walked away from this dude to flip through my phone, frantically thinking of who I could call to rescue me from this early morning scavenger. There it was, my lawyer friend's number. Dialed his number hoping he'll have a contact to redeem me from this zombie. Ring upon ring but not a soul spoke from the other side. What other options do I have? i thought to myself. Confused on what to do, i stumbled on the camera icon on my phone. There it was, my redemption or so i thought. I instantly proceeded to making a video of the road and my car on it, revealing the fact that there was no single road sign to indicate that it was a one way. On sighting the action I ...

                  To say that most of the Lagos state traffic management authority (LASTMA) officials on the streets of Lagos are touts would be an under statement.On the 24th of October 2012 at about 6:00am in the morning, i drove on this road (picture above) in Yaba, I was driving round this part of town after many years of studies in Benin. I innocently drove out of the motor park located in the heart of Yaba, opposite the Neuropsychiatric hospital in Yaba, driving on the left side of the dual carriage way you see above, thinking it was a normal road.             I was intently looking out for any road signs on this road, so as to prevent me from falling into the pepper soup of the new lagos traffic laws I had heard of while still far away in Erediawa's kingdom. After cross checking the road I proceeded to drive through as planned. To my utmos...

Nnenna Eronini Nov 7, 2011 - A London based young Nigerian girl by the name of Nnenna Eronini has reached an amazing 6ft height at the age of 11 . As seen from the above photo, she is almost as twice as tall as her classmates. In fact, the youngster is at least 14in taller than any other girl in her Year Eight class. Her Mum Christiana, 44, East London — who is just 5ft 7in — said: “She isn’t self-conscious about it at all.” Nnenna, now 12, hopes to become a catwalk model. No doubt she’ll reach the top. She is definitely going to be a giant if she continues growing at this rate Photo by : Kevin Sandland Photography. Culled from Nijagists.com

All day for the thief and one day for the owner is a statement that has gone round the world and back. Life has a way of teaching us lessons and today is one of the days life chose to seat me down. A street rat found it’s way into our age beaten house about five days ago and some how found a way of coming in and going out. As typical of all rats, it prides itself in not being seen and faster than the human feet can run. Yesterday she (on genital examination) found her way into our bathroom- I wonder what she was up too. My little cousin on sighting this street villain yelled for help, the village boy in me jumped up to the rescue. On getting to the location where the suspect was the urban boy had fully taken control; I joined my cousin to call for help (imagine that!). One of my cousins who is definitely an animal war veteran came with a stick to destroy our common enemy. He reassured us and told us to follow his plan. This urban boy took the stick and wiggled out t...

Interesting is an understatement. A Nigerian couple living in London gave birth to a blonde-haired, blue-eyed white baby girl. The baby is not albino and fidelity has nothing to do with the baby's complexion. Genetics at Oxford University and Britain’s leading expert yesterday called the birth “extraordinary." He said, “In mixed race humans, the lighter variant of skin tone may come out in a child – and this can sometimes be startlingly different to the skin of the parents." He continued, “This might be the case where there is a lot of genetic mixing, as in Afro-Caribbean populations. But in Nigeria there is little mixing.” Professor Sykes said both parents would have needed “some form of white ancestry” for a pale version of their genes to be passed on. But he added: “The hair is extremely unusual. Even many blonde children don’t have blonde hair like this at birth.” The expert said some unknown mutation was the most likely explanation. He admitted, “The rules of genetic...
