MTN! Make I go register again?


How many people have been receiving messages on sim registration by MTN?
This I think is really getting out of hand and MTN is really getting unprofessional about their services and the sim registration process.

I have registered my sim three to four times in less than 5 months! Infact my sim was barred and reactivated by MTN!
Yesterday, I got yet another message from them and I ignored with the hope that it was a general message or sent by error to my number.
This morning I received the message again and I remembered that was the trend before my line was barred last month!
I decided to call the centre and waited for another 20 minutes to speak with an agent!
I refused to hang up or choose the other several options listed while I waited. Finally, I got to speak with someone. I tried to be 'emotionally intelligent' while I explained with the hope to hear "sorry, you are safe. The message was sent by error." You know....something to calm me down and make me sigh and smile.

But NO! Infact the agent told me she has registered her sim thrice also and she started advicing me on how to get to their sim registration centres without been stressed - "I would advice you go in the evening so that the queue would have reduced."
I listened at first irritated with the response and supposedly advice and so I asked "so, I would have to register all over again?" The question was more like a rhetorical one.
I felt like crying and screaming at the same time.
The question is what is the guarantee that after this registration, there would be no need for another and yet another!
How long is this registration and re-registration cycle going to last and what exactly is the problem??

For My G.Ma - Felicia

I never knew I would miss her this much. People never understood why I love Christmas. I didn’t quite get it too – apart   from the bursting joy of the birth of Christ, the melodious songs and beautiful decorations; there was more to the super hyper and lovey-dovey feeling I always have this season. So, I was scrolling through my phone gallery and saw the last photo I had with my G.Ma. Oh by the way, Christmas was her birth and death day. I’m writing this because of her. Just to share a bit of her awesomeness with you. That woman was a bad-ass! Reminiscing on my childhood memories with her, I realized she was the reason I love Christmas. I usually spent my Christmas and New-Year holidays with her as a child. She would take me to her church and ask the priest to allow me join other children in the Christmas carol rehearsals and performances. She would take me to the salon and have my hair done and accessorized. I hated making my hair, it was just too stressf...

Killings in South Africa

I read and saw pathetic images of the killings of black foreigners by South Africans who are claiming or angry that these foreigners are taking up all available jobs and congesting available facilities and they also claim they are illegal immigrants. Read up the story captured by Al Jazeera below: 'Thousands of people have attended a march in South Africa's coastal city of Durban in solidarity with the country's foreign nationals.

Hello there!

Is it too late to say happy new year😥?! I mean, a quarter in the year 2021 is almost over, so I will let this mushy feeling slide, and let’s say I will pretend like I have been writing and written to you all these while.    Happy? Yes.    So, what have you been up to?  As for me, after the whole #EndSARS movement, I just literally had this block. In fact, I wrote a couple of things in my notebook but just couldn’t bring myself to sharing here.  I was beyond devastated, as many people – Nigerians were.    Anyways, before and since then, I was also doing a lot of thinking, studying, and preparing for a professional examination, which I wrote and passed in December, last year – yay!! Then, I have just been having ideas on a lot of things I would have loved to share with you but you know what they say about procrastination. Yea….got the best of this relationship!   I’m sorry.  Now, I hope to be more consistent – I know I have said that a mi...
