The word rollercoaster sums up the event of this month and gracefully, it ended in thanksgiving. Since the beginning of the year, Incognito Blog has reported layoffs in over 20 companies and a member of the family was missed. Now, this is not a post to speak to their excellence or contributions to the company…

Happy New Year to all our fiction and story lovers across the globe. May the new year bring us all the good things we wish for ourselves, and keep away all the evil thoughts that lurk in the dark. I am starting 2024 with a 5 hour road trip to a beautiful part of North…
The Traveler: Trip to Tafa
I visited Tafa again, a city in Northern Nigeria, and was warmly welcomed by a friend turned family. The weather was mostly chilly in the morning, and it got really hot during the day with hot winds, then it cools down at night. Over the course of my last trip, I made a friend ‘J’….

I should note that a stakeholder suggested this life & immigration: 11 episode. Life has been beautiful as usual and today I would like to write about focus. As aspirational people, it is easy to lose sight of the journey’s beauty in the rush to reach certain milestones. It is very important to slow down…

The District Municipality of Muskoka, commonly referred to as Muskoka, is a municipality with over 1,500 lakes spanning across Lake Huron’s Georgian Bay located in Canada. This was my first cottage in the woods trip and it was an amazing experience thanks to the…

That is my problem with social media addiction, people can get so consumed by the contents they consume and be oblivious to…

On this day 2 years ago, I packed my ‘Ghana-must-go bag’ (a type of cheap woven bag that got its name from a migration and deportation of non-Nigerians by an executive order in 1983, 40 years ago) and entered an airplane to England and since then I have lived in 2 other continents away from…

Welcome to the 7th edition of this interesting series about life and everything in between. If you are just joining us, you might want to start at Life & Immigration: 1, but either way, welcome.

Visiting Mexico was a good adventure, and I welcomed the humid weather that reminded me a lot about Nigeria, coupled with the carefree driving and incessant use of vehicle horns. The first observation was the airport taxi primarily charging in US dollars as opposed to their Pesos, I find that weird but acceptable since some…

Growing up in Nigeria is funny, and not in a good way. Most people are struck with the mentality that money is everything due to brutal living conditions, which is terrible; money is important but not everything. I recently came across the phrase “black tax” on twitter and it doesn’t make any sense to me…
