When it comes to love and relationships, history and nature seem to have it that there is no one with a perfection of what is mostly considered today by many as "a game" of love. However, check out this piece of love story courtesy, Ynaija.
Whether you’re meeting someone through a dating app, at a lively nightclub, at a friend of a friend’s party, or on your street, dating in this city is an experience that’s as exciting as it is complicated.
The Journey of Modern
Dating in Lagos
Gone are the days of awkwardly passing notes or meeting someone at a friend’s house party. These days, we use dating apps and social media DMs to meet the love of our lives. Technology has changed how we experience people, and whether it is the best method or not will be a conversation for another day. With a swipe or a DM, you can connect with someone across town or four streets away.
Sadly, connecting with people is not always as easy as it sounds. There are millions of people on social media and dating platforms, so finding “The One” might take a little longer and require a lot more effort than swiping left and right on profiles.

Holidays are usually a form of unity and oneness in the affairs of mankind. So today, 26 April 2025, showcases its own instituted holidays to be observed by all concerned.
Holidays Calendar submits that "World Intellectual Property Day" is a holiday that’s observed every year on April 26th. It was first established in 2000 by the World Intellectual Property Organization to raise the public’s awareness of how trademarks, copyrights, and patents impact everyone’s daily lives.
They also created it to show the public the importance to artists and creators of ensuring their intellectual property remains safeguarded. Since intellectual property is important for innovation and creativity, this is a day that everyone should consider celebrating when it rolls around in April.
The History of World
Intellectual Property Day
In September of 1998, this holiday was first proposed by the Director-General of the National Algerian Institute for Industrial Property. The following April, the institutionalization of the idea was proposed to the U.N. General Assembly.
In August of 1999, the Chinese delegation to the World Intellectual Property Organization also recommended the adoption of a World Intellectual Property Day. In October of that same year, WIPO’s General Assembly approved the adoption of this day, and in April of 2000, it was observed for the very first time.
Incase you wondering on what NEXT after the passing of the Pope, well wonder no more because Vanguard reports that the death of Pope Francis on Monday sets in motion centuries-old traditions which will culminate in the election by cardinals of a new pontiff — but with a few changes.
According to the report here is how the process unfolds:
– Sede Vacante –
The Catholic Church enters a period known as “Sede Vacante” (Vacant See) during which a senior cardinal takes over day-to-day affairs until a new pope is elected.
The cardinal, referred to as the “camerlengo” (“chamberlain”), in this case will be Irish-American Kevin Farrell, appointed to the role by Francis in February 2019.
He is the only top official in the Church hierarchy to remain in post, with all others required to resign following the death of the pope.
Lagos, the centre of excellence not only witnesses but now houses a brand new night club.
