Traveling has become part of my life style, i love traveling to different places, different states, different country in Africa. Traveling is my hubby.

I traveled to Onitsha in Anambra state from imo state Nigeria. The jouney is inter state movement. The journey from Owerri in imo state to Onitsha in Anambra state Nigeria lasted about 2 hrs 30 munits drive due to police, Army, and federal roadsefty check points on the road.

On our way to Onitsha in Anambra state Nigeria, one lady inside the bus start exchanging words with another female passenger inside the bus due to monopolization of seat in the bus which resulted fight between the two female passengers. The fight lasted for few minutes before we separate them from the fight.

Getting to a popular location and also a popular bus stop at Onitsha in Anambra state Nigeria called " upper iweka " a place where there is flyover, i saw a lot roadside beggers begging for money and food. I was wow, how can a full grown men and women with full of life be begging for money, they are not people living with disability, the are physically ok.

I saw a pregnant woman begging for money at the street of upper iweka begging for money, i weep.  My advice to people especially those beggers the street that have two legs and two hands is, to look for any mini work to be doing than to be be ideal looking for who will give them money to survive.

From upper iweka, i board a mini bus to a place called " head breadge, from the head bread, i proceeded to my final destination which is a popular industrial layout in Onitsha called" Harbour industrial layout in ogbaru local government area of Anambra state Nigeria.

After the activities of the day, it was already late, i decided to look for a nearby hotel and pass the night at the hotel.

As an Uncle with female sisters(cousins and nieces) who isn't familiar with female hair styles, but just trying to do it for future purposes, i believe you guys understand what i mean by the future. A niece who feels entitled just kept my phone buzzing, when finally i decided to hear from her she said she needed money to go make but when i asked her the style she had in mind, she told me am not familiar with female hair style. With that being true i just sent her the money and told her to make it looks good on her.

Hours later, some messages pop into my phone i tried to check and it was pictures of the hair style she made that she had sen to me on one of my web2 platforms. I checked but couldn't say anything more rather than it was beautiful. Actually i was inquisitive to know the name for future purposes so i placed a call across a friend since my sister couldn't tell me. 

My friend said, it's beautiful but i don't like, i know you the person that made the hair likes it but i doubt if the hairdresser got what she was told to do. She kept describing it to me so i can understand it well but all i said to myself was do i know anything about this.

After a long description and explanation without a clue of what she was saying i told her it was okay. If eventually i get married in the future my duty should be just to furte the and good my way. Try to be romantic for once she jokingly said to me and know a hairstyle you can tell you woman to make, it will make feel a certain way. Anyways it's up to you. That was how she ended up our conversation. Maybe, i should just go memorize some hair style names🤣🤣
