Juliet Amen, a civil servant,
talks to us about her leisure on the WELCOME TO MY LEISURE segment of FYL
One of the WAYS OF SHOWING LOVE TO YOUR HUSBAND IS "Try not to make sudden changes without discussion. And then give him time to adjust"
Do you agree?
TANKO
This village will rise again. This village will once again taste good life, a life of comfort and plenty, so says the gods. (While Townspeople now begin to rejoice, Tanko zeroes in on Chinedu, and shrieks, everyone remains quiet). But then, on the condition that (pointing at chinedu) he is appointed to manage the farms, so says the gods. (there is jubilation in the air).
NARRATOR
Please, ask the gods, who should be king of this village since the
former has gone to join his ancestors. (he does so, once again casting his
strings of divination).
TANKO
(looks into the crowd, zeroes in on Jibola)
Chief Jibola! You are the chosen one.
Other chiefs come forward and invest Jibola in royal robes and crown
while Townspeople dance round him, paying homage.
ROYAL BARD
Kabiyesi, you’ll last long to rule us. Kolanut lasts long in the mouths of them who value it.
Heavy bata drumming materialises and ROYAL BARD dance off to
the rhythm. Suddenly, lighting (the gods) strikes Tanko dead, everyone watches
motionlessly, gapping, stunned.
Narrator turns to look at the corpse, shakes his head slowly, starts
away.
BLACKOUT.

When most people think of adult toy shops, the first thing that comes to mind is a seedy store filled with sleazy-looking people. However, this stereotype could not be further from the truth! Adult toy shops are becoming increasingly popular, offering various products for people of all ages and interests.
So if you're curious about adult toys, don't be afraid to check out your local shop!
What are adult toy shops, and what do they sell?
Adult toy shops are stores that
sell products designed to enhance sexual pleasure. These can include vibrators,
dildos, bondage equipment, and lubricants. Many adult toy shops also sell DVDs
and other media featuring adult content.
Some stores may focus on a particular niche, such as BDSM or gay and lesbian customers, while others may carry a wide range of products. In recent years, the popularity of adult toy shops has grown substantially, as more people are becoming comfortable discussing and exploring their sexuality. This trend will likely continue as taboos surrounding sex continue to break down.
According to Wikipedia, Yogurt is a food produced by bacterial fermentation of milk. Hence, yoghurt is regarded as a “milk food”. The bacteria used to make yogurt are known as yogurt cultures. Fermentation of sugars in the milk by these bacteria produces lactic acid, which acts on milk protein to give yogurt its texture and characteristic tart flavour. Cow's milk is the milk most commonly used to make yogurt. Milk from water buffalo, goats, ewes, mares, camels, and yaks are also used to produce yogurt. Cow’s milk is used in the United States and north-central Europe; sheep’s and goat’s milk are preferred in Turkey and south-eastern Europe; milk from the water buffalo is most commonly used in Egypt and India. Yogurt may also be produced from non-dairy products.
According to statistics, the divorce rate in the United States is climbing. On top of that, a recent study found that nearly half of all marriages now end in divorce. So do we need to be more cautious about who we marry? Should we think about not marrying at all?
To see marriage as permanent and something to be worked on is a healthy way to view it. It also means that you’ll want to choose wisely when finding someone you want to spend your life with. There are many benefits of marriage, but there are also some challenges you’ll need to prepare for. Let’s take a look at some advice regarding how to create a happy marriage:
Communicate
Communication is the foundation for any healthy relationship. It also is a predictor of divorce. Couples that have mastered the art of good communication are more likely to stay together. To make communication a priority, you’ll need to make time to talk with your partner. You can’t solve communication issues if you don’t talk about them.

(feigns a disappointment)
My people, what can I say now? You have seen it yourself that without the knowledge of anyone of us the late chief Abiodun Kotansibe had sold his farmland to this gentleman, chief Alayemo. I mean, the document bears it all with all the witnesses and signatories.
Before now Chinedu has been assisting his father to decode the content of the document.
OKORO
(suddenly destroying the document)
Your Highness, this is insult!
ELDERS
(in a chorus)
Yes, your Highness. This is injustice!
BODE
Your Highness, how can the only fertile land in Kotansibe be sold to
a complete stranger? Our only source of livelihood, given away just like that?!

Catch-Up at this time focuses on the Taj Mahal. The phrase ‘Enormous mausoleum complex’ signifies one thing and that is the ‘Taj Mahal’.
Taj Mahal
is an Islamic ivory-white marble mausoleum on the right bank of the river
Yamuna in the Indian city of Agra commissioned in 1632 by the fifth Mughal
emperor Shah Jahan to house the remains of his third but the most favourite and
beloved wife, Mumtaz Mahal who died on 17 June that year, while giving birth to
their 14th child, Gauhara Begum.
The
magnificent multifaceted edifice also houses the tomb of Shah Jahan himself.
The tomb is the centerpiece of a 17-hectare complex, which includes a mosque
and a guest house, and is set in formal gardens bounded on three sides by a crenellated
wall. Taj Mahal’s stunning architecture has made it one of the most iconic
monuments in the world today and it also regarded as the jewel of Muslim art in
India and one of the universally admired masterpieces of the world's heritage.
Maħall is
also the surname of Mumtaz Mahal, for whom Shah Jahan built the mausoleum.
Taj Mahal is termed the 7 wonders of the world, with the dead body of Mumtaz placed at the Banks of River Yamuna and Shah had his promised fulfilled by constructing the Taj Mahal over her grave with his dead body also laid beside Mumtaz Tomb.
