Berger to Ajah; a Tale of Rape and Consent


If you don’t know why "Berger to Ajah" is trending, you will now. Behind it is a story of a twitter meet-up. Uche, the bearded, everyone-dream, everyday twitter guy DM-ing B moore and things got rosy. They chatted for a while and planned to meet up sometime in 2016. It was a trip from Berger to Ajah.  Harrowing with the fact the B Moore expected a pleasant connection but Uche could only give an unaffectionate but (probable) relish-able sex.

Fast forward to the present, Uche dude has been alleged to rape some girl through an advocate on this same twitter. B moore caught a wind of that, teamed up with the advocate for solidarity. The complex situation becomes compounded-complex. To clear the air, Uche leaked all private chats and DMs between him and B Moore showing their prior- and post-coital interaction. 




B-more encounter was obviously not a rape but an un-met expectation after a sexual knowledge. The bitterness of not being wanted after a mutually consented sex always ignited such hurt. In a tweet, B Moore further claimed that her consent to Uche was just to avert rape as she has experienced rape twice. Tweeps now argue between rape and sex, coercion and consent. 





 Anyway, the story has been leaked and it is a tip of many of such issues happening across the country. No one will tell you dating online is a crime. But to be safe, you need social-media-personality intelligence. People are not who they seem. Pseudo-persons are everywhere. Impersonation and unreal personalities abound. 

 My advice to damsels will be no to such dating. If you must, the guy visits first. Subsequent visits can be yours. If stubborn attraction forces you to desire going, establish explicit contact through calls--audio and video even relative-calling. Check the dude's wall for familial and office interaction to corroborate what he has told you.  Check-ins, and places he's been to can help. Chat any of his most tagged friends, or frequent respondents just to establish any figment of lies. Link his Twitter personality to his Facebook, Instagram and other accounts. If there is any lie, don’t and please deal with your desire within your known circle. 

Remember, sexual experience ceases to be a rape in as much there is no evidence of force. Visiting a dude unknown (and untested), every damsel should pessimistically expect the worse. Complicity is giving a strange dude that opportunity. We should learn to be wise: at least to reduce to minimal, such occurrence. If Uche dude is guilty he should be punished. If not, such spurious rape claimants should be severely punished too like a rapist.

Brentford Beat Blundering Gunner Two Goal To Nil

  The start of EPL came with Arteta still unable to  fumble out of his not-too-convincing career in Arsenal. Brentford came roaring from relegation to beat Arsenal who dream of getting to top four this season. But like their pre-season, a miscarriage of dreams, they fell a goal behind to Brentford through Canos super strike. From that moment forward, Brentford became the Bully, created more chances and Arsenal passed sideways as if the goal post was at the corner flag. Anyways, White white-out on the field, the presence of 50 million bargain wasn't felt. Mari was too casual for a defender. Tierney will soon burn out. Chambers tried his chambers-efforts. Upfront Balogun was starved of direct passes. Pepe will never pepper any defender except when he is in luck. The dude cannot be consistent except he sees a man-manager. Smith is a ball-smith but combined with Xhaka sideways and momentary slip & sleep off, Smith Rowe just rowing to a fruitless breeze. Martinelli needs to man...

Lampard Outclassed the Master: Chelsea dealt Spurs two goals to Nil

Chelsea took the bulling Spurs by the horns: no cautiousness but direct attack. Mourinho was defeated. Chelsea guys didnt come with a respect for the master but they were all brimming to establish dominance which they did. Rudiger was a no-nonsense man, manning the defense. Zouma still un-fooballer-like but always decent.Tomori, your model footballer, tidy through the game. Kovacic was silent but stringing passes. Kante was a beast that made me imagined a combo of him with a De Bruyne in a midfield will be almost unbeatable. While Abraham and Mount were decent, William was the Marshall that Spurs couldnt handle. His every touch weakened the Spurs defense. He got the first goal and converted the other.  The game was all blue and Spurs were all kung-fu fighting. Son got a red card. The goalie a yellow.  Welcome back to Premier League, Mourinho. --toonday  

DECLUTTERING AND DEATH CLEANING:THE LIVING AND THE KINDNESS IN OUR DYING

Living is a quadratic equation with a pre-determined answer (death) yet we keep trying to solve the equation. Year 2017 gave a fair share of answers to many lives. From international, national, to local personalities, lives were lost. To us, at first it appeared a distant reality until someone close to us succumbed to that harsh reality. To the young, it's a distant rumor. To the old, constant topic heavily brooded. If living is an act of dying, how can we then be gracious in dying? I came across this term: death cleaning and alas it's the much needed answer. How we can shroud in our living (dying) the preparatory kindness that can live after us and make neighbors happy?  Every breathing being will one day taste death.  No amount of science, or achievement, or bitterness or super-humanness can change that. If so, won't we live in all preparation for the constant exit? Death cleaning is a Swedish term that describes a conscious and deliberate preparation for death...
