EDITOR’S NOTE

I am often asked whether I have a plan B for a better life outside Nigeria, and my response each time is: I am a black woman in her mid-forties. I already have a career here; relocating would mean starting over, and frankly, I don’t have the time or energy for that. What would I do if I relocated? While this is my opinion, many others, men and women in the same age bracket and older, would not hesitate to leave Nigeria at a whim if the opportunity presented itself. For them, anywhere but Nigeria is a better option right now. But this wasn’t always the position of Nigerians; I remember my parents talking about moving back here in the seventies with the confidence that Nigeria was better than the US. At the time, the naira was stronger than the dollar. But that was a long time ago. Today we are at 605 naira to a dollar. How did we get here? Are our leaders totally oblivious of the economic crisis, coupled with the many other issues, including poor education and healthcare systems, lack of jobs, electricity and deathtraps as roads? The presidential election is about seven months away, and I don’t recall any aspirants speaking about solutions to the many issues we currently face as a nation. It’s no wonder anywhere is a better option than Nigeria for some, at the moment, regardless of the many challenges they face abroad. And until the government fixes these problems, sharp minds will continue to emigrate. May God help us. On a lighter note, Nigerians are known to be one of the most fashionable people on earth, and the array of styles made with ankara fabrics, as seen on our ladies, is proof that indeed we are. So we have compiled some trendy styles every woman can try. Can you guess what a pillow princess is when it comes to intimacy? I’ll let you find that out on page 7. We are inching toward travel season, so our beauty page has a guide on what will keep your hair picture-worthy while you are away. Don’t miss the movie review, home decor and tech for pets pages. Until next week, enjoy your read.

Introducing: THE DICTIONARY OF OBSCURE SORROWS UNOFFICIAL DICTIONARY THAT GIVES WORDS TO THE EMOTIONS WE CAN'T QUITE ARTICULATE USING THE ENGLISH LANGUAGE. BY KEHINDÉ FAGBULE

Here are 25 of some of the emotions we feel but can't explain with a conventional English word, but the Dictionary of Obscure Sorrow has introduced a word for.

1. Sonder

n. the realisation that each passerby has a life as vivid and complex as your own.

2. Opia

n. the ambiguous intensity of looking someone in the eye, which can feel simultaneously invasive and vulnerable.

3. Monachopsis

n. the subtle but persistent feeling of being out of place.

4. Énouement

n. the bittersweetness of having arrived in the future, seeing how things turn out, but not being able to tell your past self.

5. Vellichor

n. the strange wistfulness of used bookshops.

6. Rubatosis

n. the unsettling awareness of your own heartbeat.

he evolution of language happens organically but also deliberately. John Koenig, filmmaker and creator of the multimedia Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows, hopes to fill in the linguistic gaps with a compendium of subtle emotions. The dictionary provides a language for feelings we all have but do not have names for; some result from postmodernism, while others are particularly acute now that we don't have an emotional language to describe our homes. Vocabulary isn't created in a vacuum. "Each word actually means something etymologically, having been built from one of a dozen languages or renovated jargon," Koenig explains. For example, liberosis is a longing for liberty, an ache to let things go. A recent addition, wytai, is an acronym for "When You Think About It," and means the sudden realisation of how absurd some aspect of modern life is. The dictionary comprised a website, videos, and graphics and was released as a book by Simon and Schuster on November 16, 2021. Sonder–the realisation of the richness of other people's lives–is a much-beloved 2012 entry with more than 40,000 notes from fans on the compendium's website. However, inventing words isn't a new sport, so maybe Koenig was feeling anemoia, which he described as nostalgia for a time he never knew. Charles Dickens made up curses to not offend Victorian readers, like gormed, considered horrible although rooted in the mild Irish word, gom, meaning to look. Swedes neatly articulate living arrangements, differentiating between rooming with a cool parent, kobo, bunking with a lover, sambo, and living apart from your romantic partner, sarbo. The Japanese have a word for the literary affliction of buying unread books, tsundoku. German's concise complexity has prompted English to borrow many words, including schadenfreude, or taking pleasure in the misfortune of another. It got so popular that the New York Times advised giving "schadenfreude" a rest. The Dictionary of Obscure Sorrows joins this endeavour, adding shades of grey to the emotional space with words like zenosyne, which means the fear that time is speeding up.

PAGE 6

7. Kenopsia

n. the eerie, forlorn atmosphere of a place that is usually bustling with people but is now abandoned and quiet.

8. Mauerbauertraurigkeit

n. the inexplicable urge to push people away, even close friends you really like.

9. Jouska

n. a hypothetical conversation that you compulsively play out in your head.

10. Chrysalism

n. the amniotic tranquillity of being indoors during a thunderstorm.

16. Exulansis

n. the tendency to give up trying to talk about an experience because people are unable to relate to it.

17. Adronitis

n. frustration with how long it takes to get to know someone.

18. Rückkehrunruhe

n. the feeling of returning home after an immersive trip only to find it fading rapidly from your awareness.

19. Nodus Tollens

n. the realisation that the plot of your life doesn't make sense to you anymore.

20. Onism

n. the frustration of being stuck in just one body that inhabits only one place at a time.

21. Liberosis

n. the desire to care less about things.

22. Altschmerz

n. weariness with the same old issues you've always had, the same boring flaws and anxieties that you've been gnawing on for years.

23. Occhiolism

n. the awareness of the smallness of your perspective.

25. Lilo

n. a friendship that can lie dormant for years only to instantly pick up, as if no time had passed since you last saw each other.

26. Midding

v. intr. Feeling the tranquil pleasure of being near a gathering but not quite in it. Feeling blissfully invisible yet still fully included, safe in the knowledge that everyone is together and everyone is okay, with all the thrill of being there without the burden of having to be.

11. Vemödalen

n. the frustration of photographing something amazing when thousands of identical photos already exist.

12. Anecdoche

n. a conversation in which everyone is talking, but nobody is listening.

13. Ellipsism

n. a sadness that you'll never be able to know how history will turn out.

14. Kuebiko

n. a state of exhaustion inspired by acts of senseless violence.

15. Lachesism

n. the desire to be struck by disaster - to survive a plane crash or lose everything in a fire.

Can you use these words in an essay or a general publication yet? No, you cannot. However, it feels refreshing that we finally have placeholder words to properly articulate emotions that feel as though they were peculiar to us when in fact, they weren't. It turns out that we are a lot more in common as humans than we thought after all.

DOWNTOWN CONFIDENTIAL sex, things like muscle cramps, back pains or an accidental bump on the headboard are sometimes inevitable but not to you; you simply want to relax and be served penis.

Are You A

Pillow Princess? BY TILEWA KAZEEM

hen I heard the term ‘pillow princess’ at first, I thought it had something to do with a princess and her pillows. I mean, why not? A princess having a ole pile of pillows isn't something unheard of. I couldn't be more wrong. This word stemmed from the LGBTQIA+ community before making its way into the heterosexual community’s language to refer to women who are ‘lazy’ in bed. It actually means someone who prefers to sit back and let their lover do all of the effort during sex. It typically refers to someone who receives oral sex regularly but does not reciprocate. The adorable sorts who just lay there and let things happen to them– generally but not limited to oral sex. The phrase is frequently used interchangeably with another term used by certain males known as star-fishing, gotten from the starfish sleeping position. ‘Pillow’ refers to someone docile, while ‘princess’ is a nickname for someone who desires special treatment, and we can all agree the latter describes many women.

Receiving More Than You Give It's sexy time; you lie in bed and splay your legs apart for your partner to go down on you till you climax. After that, it's straight sex and then to bed. On occasions that you give him fellatio, you couldn't care any less. You are unbothered and uninterested in satisfying him orally. You just want to do it as fast as possible and get up from under him.

As Long As You're Lying Down To you, sex shouldn't be stressful, and neither should it be tedious. Your sexual position of choice is missionary and others that involve you staying in the napping position. You are okay to let your partner into you from behind without necessarily forcing you to move too much. Like a pillow, you just lay there, receiving it.

Comfort is Key Hardcore sex is a no no. You are ready to call out any slight discomfort if it doesn't fit your relaxation scheme. Usually, during

Before now, some of you might be hearing this for the first time, unaware that such a classification even existed. Well, that's because it isn't something you would find in your regular dictionary. The phrase initially appeared in the 1990s and spread to heterosexual communities around 2010. It is safe to say it never caught on in Nigeria, thanks to the strict laws around same-sex relationships. But thanks to pop culture, that has slightly changed over the years. So as a lady, how do you know if you are a pillow princess?

More Talk Less Action You're a skilled dirty-talker. What you lack in mobility, you make up for in talking dirty. Your moans and words of encouragement are enough to make *them* practically climax on the spot while your partner is toiling and tonguing away. That, in and of itself, is a magical ability. In retrospect, when I met a pillow princess (Vivian), I had no idea who she was; I just thought she just didn't like returning the favour (if you know what I mean.) But putting everything into perspective now, it all makes sense. Vivian and I met during an assignment in Calabar. She was in my team, and she always wore a look that said ‘please don't talk to me’ behind her wide framed sunglasses. She wasn't buxom like most ladies I'm usually attracted to. She was petite with cherry-sized breasts, but that didn't make them any less attractive to gawk at. Her face was also another thing I enjoyed looking at through the crowd of my other platoon members. One sunny day, I got my opportunity and took my shot. Luckily for me, I caught her without her glasses on, and I could finally see her entrancing eyes. I had enough courage to ask for her number, and she gave it to me. In less than two days, we were joined by the hip. The whole group and our coordinator thought we were together, and we never tried to dissuade them. We just enjoyed each other's company. But that was nipped in the bud when COVID struck and we were all forced to go home less than a week into the program. It was a bittersweet feeling for both of us because although we wanted to return home, we were devastated by the uncertainty that would plague our newfound friendship. After we went our separate ways, we kept in touch, calling and texting each other throughout the lockdown. Seven months later, the restrictions eased up, and I would see Vivian again. Our hearts had grown fonder, and like the Sahara's dunes crave water, we couldn't wait for our bodies to collide. The hairs on my skin stood at the thought of her skin on mine. The time apart had made us yearn for each other, thirst for each other, and we hoped to quell that thirst with each other. We finally met up, and we couldn't get our hands off each other. I tossed her petite frame onto the bed and then rushed to take off my clothes, and she took off hers. I stood close to the edge of the bed while taking in the view. Her statuesque body looked like a living, breathing renaissance masterpiece as my eyes wandered around her body. I crawled towards her, ran my hand through her braids and planted a kiss on her lips. She noticed my tumescence, grabbed it and held it in her hands as it grew harder and harder with her touch. I pushed her back to the bed, took a journey from her lips to her belly, and settled between her inner thighs. She spread her legs, and as you can imagine, she was already dripping wet and taking slow, deep breaths. Her perky breasts heaved up and down like tides. There I was, staring at her shaven lady bits in all its glory, and I didn't waste any second before enveloping it with my lips. I fiddled with her clitoris like you would a lollypop till she climaxed in my mouth. As I lay down beside her, hoping she would get up and repay the favour, I was surprised that she didn't get up. It turned out she didn't like the idea of having my penis in her mouth. On the sex front, she didn't want to rush into anything so quickly, so I just laid there, feeling very sexually defrauded.

The Mass Emigration Continues

BY TILEWA KAZEEM AND KEHINDÉ FAGBULE

s the elections draw closer each day, Nigerians count down the remaining days of this present administration. The overall state of affairs hasn't been satisfactory—the hardship and uncertainty have clocked an all-time high recently. For most Nigerians, getting their permanent voter's card (PVC) and making the right choice in the coming elections provide a more feasible solution to this mess. For others, taking the drastic route of emigration and seeking greener pastures have been touted as an escape from it.

Japa (Relocation), The Drastic Solution

Emigration isn't a new concept to Nigerians. We have been moving in large numbers to all parts of the world even before gaining independence. Travelling overseas has always been a privileged thing to do worldwide, and the most populous Black Country is not different. In Nigeria, travelling abroad ranks very highly on many people's wishlists. For most, relocation is the best thing that could happen in one's

life as a Nigerian living in Nigeria—even if it means they never get to see friends and family again. If you have never been outside Nigeria, you simply fantasise about going someday. The promise of a better life that developed countries hold ensures that this dynamic has been maintained since colonisation. The move, however, has seen an expected surge since the #EndSARS protests in recent years. As people watched through the very gruesome series of protests that initially started as a cry for help to disband the notorious arm of the Nigerian Police Force, the Special Anti-Robbery Squad, SARS, and later morphed into a demand for good governance, Nigerians were engulfed by the feeling of hopelessness. In a democracy, the government exists to cater to its people, but there is nothing democratic about the present administration. With the brouhaha having culminated in the Lekki massacre two years ago, it became clear to young Nigerians just how powerless they are in solving some of

the biggest problems in the country. Plagued by worrying insecurity, a towering unemployment rate, alarming exchange rates, the ongoing ASUU strike, the highest inflation we've ever experienced, and so on, it is easy to see why Nigerians are fleeing the country in large numbers. Some would rather even stay in modern-day slavery than return home. In 2017, the ordeal of Nigerians, and other African nationals, caught in the web of a slave trade in Libya sent shock waves across the world. Reports of Africans being sold and resold for upwards of $400, with several deaths in the process came to light. According to CNN, Libya had become attractive for this modern trade in migrants and refugees because of its location as a transit point for Africans who try to reach Europe by sea. The report noted that at least 150,000 people have tried to cross the Mediterranean Sea from Libya in the last three years. About 3,000 refugees have paid the supreme price while trying to make the dangerous crossing. Foreign Affairs ministry spokesman, Tiwatope Elias-Fatiile, revealed in an official statement that 2778 Nigerians were identified in detention camps that embassy officials had been visiting. Those registered in these camps, the spokesman said, were issued with emergency travel certificates, but not all were willing to return home. Just last week, on the 5th of June, a Catholic church in Owo, Ondo State, was attacked by terrorists, killing over 20 innocent churchgoers. This came a few weeks after a 200-level female student of the Shehu Shagari College of Education, Sokoto, Deborah Samuel Yakubu, was lynched over alleged blasphemy against Prophet Muhammad. Before that, hundreds of passengers travelling northwards on their way northwest were kidnapped in Katari, Kaduna State, while others were killed and injured by bandits who bombed an Abuja-Kaduna train. These are mere highlights of a series of barbaric acts that happen in the country on a largely consistent basis, and so Nigerians, regardless of what the potential obstacles might look like, continue to weigh up relocation as an option. Although enough negatives are smearing Nigeria's reputation, other countries have their own shortcomings. For instance, the United States of America has seen more than 200 mass shootings in 2022 so far. In Eastern Europe, Russia and Ukraine disrupted the world with an avoidable war, with young Nigerians studying in Ukraine serving as collateral damage. There is also the constant worry of being a minority in a foreign country and having to learn to tolerate racism and xenophobia. For some Nigerians in the diaspora, adapting to a completely different environment is challenging. Amidst the culture shock and naivety that comes with being an immigrant, some Nigerians find it hard to be social. That is met with a loneliness that can only be filled by familiar faces in a familiar environment. Despite all these challenges, Nigerians leave anyway without plans to return. But what is the long-term impact on all parties involved? Early this year, the news of Pastor Sam Adeyemi and his wife, Nike's — both founders of the Lagos-based popular pentecostal church, Daystar Christian Centre—relocation to Canada sent tongues wagging. Pastor Sam and his wife were in Canada on vacation in 2020 when the Federal Government declared a lockdown across the country due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Many of his church members assumed that their general overseer and his wife probably got caught up in the panic ignited by the coronavirus and the resulting lockdown. But when the lockdown was lifted and air travel allowed, the Adeyemis did not return to Nigeria.

COVER In the secular scene, there have been a fair number of creatives who have abandoned their career in their entirety to settle down abroad. Nollywood actresses such as Toyin Adewale, Bukky Wright, and Stella Damasus are famous examples of entertainers that have exited the spotlight for greener pastures. Omoni Oboli is another Nollywood actress whose family moved to Canada. Much younger popular social media influencer, Mazi Ibe also relocated to the UK with his family last year. For most Nigerians, the Nigerian dream comes with dual citizenship. This is why young people do whatever it takes to fulfil their relocation dreams. Since the Visa lottery days have come to an end, Nigerians have found alternatives to end up in their dream countries. The most common routes are through schools and the hospital. Even before gaining independence, Nigerians have been known to gather education abroad. The difference now is that they don't plan to return. The health industry is faced with a similar predicament.

Brain Drain: Mass exodus of Nigerian Academia Pastor Sam And Nike Adeyemi

Two years after, the couple is yet to set foot in Nigeria. Adeyemi and his wife allegedly now shuttle between Canada and the United States, where their children are schooling. Pastor Sam and Nike Adeyemi's relocation have been rumoured to be because of the clergyman's vocal support of the #EndSARS protest. It is no secret that certain individuals attempted to have Pastor Adeyemi, among others, convicted for active involvement in the protest. This could become a trend among pentecostal pastors. Just last year, Pastor Paul Adefarasin, the senior pastor of House on the Rock Church told members of his congregation that despite having faith like a Christian should, he also has a plan B. He talked about the power of technology and how he could harness it to speak to his congregation from anywhere in the world. "Get yourself a plan B," he had said, while advising members of his church to have a plan B or exit plan from Nigeria.

Paul Adefarasin

On paper, Nigeria practices the Universal Basic Education system: nine years of basic education, three years of senior secondary school education, and four years of tertiary education. However, this first implemented module in 2009 is bisected by a plurality of problems. The wealthy who don't want their offspring affected by some of these difficulties - ASUU strikes, cultism etc., situated them in private universities or sent them overseas for education. Those who can't afford those privileges are restricted to hope in the bandaged system. The educational system in Nigeria is somewhat of a janky, stop and start education system that works when it wants, thanks to the country's several insecurities and inadequacies. It is no surprise that restarting school from the tertiary level in a foreign country is a risk thousands of youths are willing to take because of these difficulties. But first, you must ask yourself; why, after arduous years of studying and, for a lucky few, graduating, would Nigerians spend thousands of their savings or, in some instances, loaned money to start all over? An easy answer could be the lack of jobs. Since 2015, unemployment has risen to 33.3 per cent. According to government statistics, more than half of the workforce under 34 years old was unemployed in the fourth quarter, with 53.4 per cent of those aged 15-24 and 37.2 per cent of those aged 25-34 unemployed. Most universities and polytechnics offer over 50 courses and admit about 2 million students each academic year, graduating roughly 600,000 people, which isn't a good ratio in and of itself. However, this also means that 1.2 million Nigerian youths will be available for work in the next two years. Unfortunately, less than half of those graduates will be able to gain their footing within the first few years after graduation. According to World Bank estimates, around 19 million Nigerians entered the labour field in the last five years — or 300,000 per month — but only 3.5 million jobs were created during that time, implying that

Bukky Wright

80 per cent of new workers were unemployed. Most graduates are dissatisfied with the state of the Nigerian labour market, which appears to be saturated. Over the last nearly two decades, the situation has steadily deteriorated. The report that the Nigerian Youth Employment Action Plan, 2021-24 of the Federal Ministry of Youth and Sports Development, published in August 2021, confirms that unemployment rates are increasing. According to the report, "As of 2020 (Q2), youth unemployment (15-34 years old) stood at 35 per cent. A further 28 per cent of young people in the labour force were considered underemployed (working 20-39 hours a week), and 37 per cent were working full time (40 or more hours per week)." COVID-19 also played a role in setting education back. Schools that couldn't participate virtually suffered from the effects. Some of these effects were that; the pandemic negatively impacted education, causing poor school enrollment, inequality in education, poor achievement, poor school health and challenges in school assessment and transition.

COVER Some graduates who finish their programs here and consider furthering their degree to PhD or doctorate level aren't also safe from the academic hullabaloo because they still stomach the same issues as undergrads. To avoid that, they have to enrol on programs that would grant them a student visa and then, they school and work to make up a little cash for themselves along the line. Having reached the final tier of educational excellence, some then use the opportunity to settle in the country in the hopes of becoming permanent citizens and planting their roots in a system that works.

Continuous Emigration of medical practitioners

Stella Damasus

The increasingly difficult opportunity for graduates to positively contribute to the growth of their economy has been one of the many reasons why graduates wouldn't mind packing their bags and suitcase for other foreign countries. Countries where they can actively improve as individuals while similarly contributing to the growing community. Graduates aren't bound by education's prisms, and if they possess the required funds to relocate, they can. But what about undergraduates who are seemingly in an academic structure but would jump at any chance to leave the country should it arise? Could it be that they don't like the odds stacked against them, or perhaps they are in dire need of a system that works and works well? Universal Basic Education (UBE) was set in motion to replace the previous academic structure, the 6-3-3-4 system. The UBE delegates that the education recipient spend four years in the university. It's common knowledge. The standard duration of any tertiary course is four years (exempting Law, Medicine and specific other courses.) But that's not the case in most state and federal schools in Nigeria, under the Academic Staff Union of Universities, widely known as ASUU. From the body's formation back in 1988 till date, it has embarked on 16 nationwide strikes. Which were for several reasons that include but aren't limited to; poor university funding and disparity in salary. These strikes, which are now considered a yearly event, cripple academic activities and set the academic calendar of undergrad students back by months. As of the time of this article, this body is on a three-month strike going as far back as March 2022. Students have been forced to wait out the strike, which is expected to end on the 8th of August. When this happens, they will be forcefed months of work in weeks and would have to sit for exams not long after. Yet, we wonder why out of 2 million students admitted, only 600,000 graduate. Courses that usually should take four or five years to conclude are extended for these reasons. Whereas in other countries, the system put in place doesn't allow for such things to happen. Asides from that, there is a good level of compassion between the union and the state to ensure that when two elephants fight, the grass doesn't suffer.

Another sector in the country that got ravaged by the cold hands of Emigration is healthcare. Every year, there are fewer medical doctors in Nigeria. According to the Nigerian Medical Association, the primary cause for the decline in doctors in Nigeria is the migration of Nigerian doctors abroad. The Medical and Dental Consultants Association of Nigeria (MDCAN) corroborated it when it reported that more than 100 of its members have left the country in the past 24 months. At least 2,000 medical doctors leave Nigeria yearly, and no fewer than 5,407 Nigerian trained doctors are currently working with the British National Health Service in the United Kingdom. The president of the Nigerian medical association, Dr. Francis Faduyile, noted that a high rate of insecurity, unemployment, low remuneration, bad roads, and a flawed healthcare system are some of the reasons why doctors are leaving the country in search of greener pastures. He noted that 75,000 Nigerian doctors were registered with the Nigerian Medical Association (NMA), but over 33,000 have left the country. Can you blame them? One doesn't even need data to show that doctors in America and Europe are paid higher than their counterparts in Africa. The United States of America and the United Kingdom are the two most prevalent destinations for Nigerian medical doctors to seek job opportunities. Others include Canada, Dubai, Saudi Arabia, Australia, and Qatar. As far as meeting Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 3 regarding "Good Health and Well-being" for the healthcare sector, things are not looking too good. The country is well behind on meeting a target requirement of an adequate number of doctors, projected to achieve the SDG. The World Health Organisation (WHO) puts the doctor-patient ratio at 1:600 standard. However, Nigeria's doctors to patients ratio of 4:10,000 fall below the global recommendation. As aforementioned, this has led to a medical brain drain, thereby leaving several people without medical consultation from doctors in Nigeria.

In Finality

Although it is clear to see how much better the general living conditions are in developed countries, and the sentiment that most Nigerians have about them is fair and valid, does it present the perfect solution? Between the mass shootings in North America, and the war in Eastern Europe mirroring the insecurity challenges we have at home, and the feeling of loneliness and despair that some Nigerians in the diaspora are conditioned to experience, there's no questioning how much of a sacrifice goes into these rampant relocations. On the one hand, searching for greener pastures, even with the uncertainties involved, could be likened to a case of the devil you know being better than an angel you don't know. On the other hand, several factors are responsible for young people leaving everything behind in the search for a better life, and we can go on and on about how the country isn't serving us. But change doesn't just happen without a propeller intent on implementing strategies that work. We have a long way to go as a country; the potentials are enormous across every industry and sector. However, our country risks losing our best resources—people—to already developed countries if we don't wake up and smell the coffee.

TECH TOYS FOR YOUR HOUSE PETS

igeria's pet culture has recently exploded, which is unsurprising. The mindset of dog owners who purchase them for security rather than as pets has progressively altered, and these canines are now treated with greater compassion and care. On the other hand, the felines have progressed from walking around on fences at night to yawning and prancing around in more homes. More individuals are devoting time and money to ensuring that these furballs are well-played with and fed when necessary these days. And as a result of that, people have started investing in technology that provides added comfort for themselves and their beloved pets. These new-age tools do well to entertain, feed and clean after your pets, relieving you of the stress of remembering to do them after a long day of work. That said, here are some of these technologies.

A QUICK GUIDE TO WAXING AT HOME BY SOPHIA EDISI

axing adds a luxurious feel to your skin by pulling the hair out from the root so it grows back softer, finer, and thinner. Having clear, smooth, silky fresh skin is achievable through waxing. It is often seen as a scary procedure; however, with time, your hair will become thin, making subsequent waxing a lot more tolerable. So if you are tired of the hassle of shaving several times per week, here are some ways to achieve home waxing comfortably.

Maria Benjamin

SOFT CRÈME WAXING This is an absolute must for sensitive skin. It can be used on any body area and is effective on all hair types. Soft wax provides maximum performance and is better suited for large areas of the skin like the legs and hands. The wax is applied to the skin when soft, then covered and left for some minutes to dry. After applying it on your skin, the strip is removed, and along with it comes your body hair.

Hot wax is designed for sensitive and delicate parts of your body, such as your facial skin, nose, ears and eyebrows. It is easy to apply and remove since no waxing strips are necessary. The hard wax is melted and applied on the skin where the hair needs to be removed. After it dries, the wax is peeled off using your fingers. You will see instant results with just one application. It grips even the shortest hairs to give superb results as pain-free as possible. Aqua Wax BERODIN

BEAUTY ROLL-ON WAX Paper Waxing Strip STARPIL

STRIPS WAXING This is a semi-solid form of wax that is already applied to the strips to be placed on your skin. The strips are pressed against the skin in a way that is against the growth of the hair. This helps give the wax strips a strong hold on the skin when pulled out. It gets done faster, the hair pulls out easier, and is less painful. It is required that the skin should be completely clean before you wax, as anything resting on top of your skin might repel the wax.

Paper Waxing Strip LOTUS ESSENTIALS

Get yourself a high-performance wax roll-on cartridge with large fixed heads, which can be applied on the skin and get rid of using any strip of your choice for quick clean and effective treatments. The good thing about roll-on wax is that it doesn’t need the traditional wax heater, and it makes hair removal a lot easier since they are mess-free.

WHAT AMBER HEARD

All to Know About Johnny Depp vs. Amber Heard Trial Verdict BY KEHINDÉ FAGBULE Rottenborn also said evidence in the trial would show that Heard did suffer domestic abuse at the hands of Depp and that it was physical, emotional, verbal and psychological. Depp was faced with proving that Heard knowingly made false claims. Heard filed a countersuit against Depp, which was decided as part of the trial. She alleged that Depp defamed her when his former lawyer referred to her abuse allegations as a hoax. Depp lost a defamation case that involved Heard in 2020 when he sued British tabloid, The Sun, over a headline calling him a "wife beater." Depp filed his current defamation suit (against Heard) in 2019, the year after she wrote the op-ed.

A Trial by Twitter

Social media, especially Twitter, erupted with all sorts of reactions. While team Depp, consisting primarily of men, gloated, team Heard, mostly women, took turns airing their grievances on several organised Twitter Spaces. Here are some of the mixed reactions.

What did Heard and Depp say during testimony in the trial and after the verdict?

n Wednesday, 1st of June, a jury found both Johnny Depp and Amber Heard liable for defamation but awarded more money to Depp. The decision follows a highly publicised trial in Fairfax, Virginia, and spanned several weeks. Depp sued ex-wife Heard for defamation over a 2018 op-ed she wrote for The Washington Post, seeking $50 million in damages. A fortnight ago, a jury found Depp had been defamed by Heard in the piece and awarded him $10 million in compensatory damages and $5 million in punitive damages. However, the judge capped the punitive damages total to $350,000 per legal limits in Virginia, resulting in a total of $10.35 million. Heard, who was seeking $100 million in a countersuit, was awarded $2 million in compensatory damages and no punitive damages. The jury found that a statement made by a former lawyer of Depp's—one of the three statements included in Heard's countersuit—had been defamatory. Here's what else you should know about the trial.

Why did Johnny Depp sue Amber Heard?

Heard, 36, a model and actress, starred in 2018's Aquaman. She was married to Depp, 58, from 2015 to 2016. The pair divorced in August 2016. In December 2018, Heard wrote an op-ed for The Washington Post titled, "I spoke up against sexual violence and faced our culture's wrath. That has to change." She said in the article that she'd become "a public figure representing domestic abuse" but didn't mention Depp's name. Depp alleged Heard defamed him in the op-ed. During opening statements, Depp's lawyer Benjamin Chew said Heard's article clearly referred to Depp and that Heard's "false allegations had a significant impact on Mr. Depp's family and his ability to work in the profession he loved." Benjamin Rottenborn, a lawyer for Heard, said that the First Amendment protects what she wrote. "The article isn't about Johnny Depp," Rottenborn said. "The article is about the social change she is advocating and that the First Amendment protects."

When asked about the first time Depp allegedly hit her, Heard described an instance when she'd asked Depp about what one of his tattoos said, and he'd replied "wino." "I just laughed because I thought he was joking, and he slapped me across the face," she said. Heard also testified that Depp sexually assaulted her shortly after they were married. During his testimony earlier in the trial, Depp said that he never struck Heard but that she displayed violence during their relationship. Depp alleged she threw a vodka bottle at his hand during an argument, cutting off a part of his middle finger. After the verdict, Heard reacted, "I'm heartbroken that the mountain of evidence still was not enough to stand up to the disproportionate power, influence, and sway of my ex-husband. I'm even more disappointed with what this verdict means for other women." Meanwhile, Depp wrote an Instagram post that he feels "at peace." His caption read, "Six years later, the jury gave me my life back."

Prisoners

performance, filled with coiled anger and relentless desperation, and certainly worthy of an Oscar nomination. Jackman and Gyllenhaal do the heavy lifting, but it's a top-notch cast all round, boasting one Oscar winner, four Oscar nominees and a Golden Globe nominee. Davis' limited screentime is memorable, Bello is convincing, while Dano is excellent in a thankless role. Veteran cinematographer Roger Deakins perfectly captures the bleakness of the situation and the mist-shrouded suburbs, while Johan Johannsson's score (aided

by a dash of Radiohead) is suitably ominous. Prisoners is haunting and will stick with you. It messes with your sympathies and your moral compass. It keeps you guessing and wondering how it can possibly come together and even demands a second viewing if you can handle its at-times confronting nature again. There are puzzles at play here, so pay attention. The only criticisms might be the ending, Loki's lack of development, and whether the film maintains its two and half hours fully, but those possible gripes aside, this is a brilliant movie.

PLAYLIST FOR THE WEEK

The two-episode finale of Stranger Things season four is set to release on Netflix on July 1.

PAGE 16

When we think of horror movies, we tend to think of haunted houses, exorcisms, and knife-wielding psychos in the night. But what really horrifies us in our everyday lives is the possibility our loved ones could be taken away from us and that we would be powerless to do anything about it. It's fitting then, that Denis Villeneuve's first English-language feature feels like a horror film. It tells its tale of two missing girls abducted in broad suburban daylight; the sense of dread and foreboding, the intense uncomfortableness of what follows, and the perpetual sleet and mist that hangs in the air are straight out of a scary movie. The two missing girls belong to Keller and Grace Dover (Jackman and Bello) and Franklin and Nancy Birch (Howard and Davis), whose lives are torn apart one foggy Thanksgiving when their young daughters Anna and Joy are abducted. Detective Loki (Gyllenhaal) is on the case, but progress is slow and frustrating for the two families, particularly Keller, who is angered when lead suspect Alex Jones (Dano) is released from custody. Convinced the mentally challenged Alex knows the kids' location, Keller kidnaps and imprisons him, starting down a dark road that will test Keller's Christian values and blur the lines between good and evil. The title is an apt one. Not only are people imprisoned literally, but everyone is held captive and controlled beyond their will by something, whether it be their grief, anger, faith, mental capacity, past or even their job, with the latter being the case of Gyllenhaal's detective. Loki is an intriguing character, mainly because we get so little information about him compared to everyone else in the movie. His tattoos and a nervous blink hint at a past we're never told about, and aside from his introduction where he dines alone, we never see him outside of work. Some may see him as a token cop or a frustratingly underwritten character, but he is a refreshingly cliché-free lawman so driven and determined that he lives entirely for his job. Far more colourful is Jackman's Keller - a survivalist, a Christian, and a committed father who provides the film's grey-area morality. It's a stunning
