April 26, 2025.
Satan tried… but as always, he failed.
My mum was seated in front.
Nobody else in that car was injured — except her. Her forehead was bleeding badly.
Glass cuts all over her body.
She and my brother were on their way to Kogi.
They had even sent me a video of the bus before boarding.
Hours later, I got a call from Bolaji—
“Na only my mummy wound ooo… na only my mummy wound ooo…”
And he hung up. I nearly lost my mind.
I kept calling… no one picked.
My whole world was in that bus, miles away,
and my mum was bleeding.
That afternoon, I said every prayer I knew.
One year later…
All we have are scars.
And I’m deeply grateful to God that it didn’t get worse than this.
God is good.
And the devil does nothing but lie.
I honestly cannot tell whether I found you or you found me — but what I know, without a shadow of doubt, is that this was heaven-sent. Nothing about us feels accidental. As I always say, Oluwa truly did Funmi ni Ayo with you.
You came into my life at one of the most heart-wrenching seasons of my entire existence — when my heart was tender, tired, and unsure. Yet somehow, you didn’t just arrive… you stayed. And in staying, you have wrapped my world in a quiet kind of peace, a steady joy, and a love that feels both gentle and loud at the same time.
Three years of walking this life with you, and the thought of us ever drifting apart feels almost unbearable. You are no longer just part of my story — you are stitched into the very fabric of me. I know I am not always the easiest person to love. I overthink. I withdraw. Sometimes I even shrink back my own devotion when my heart gets overwhelmed. But please hold this truth close: I do not, and will never take our sisterhood for granted. Not for one second!
You love me so loudly, so boldly, so fearlessly… that sometimes it even scares me.
OLUWAFUNMILAYO AJAYI, thank you, deeply! for your love.
I love you. I truly, wholeheartedly mean it. 💜
No special reason.
I just needed you to know you matter to me more than I ever say. Whatever happens, whatever breaks, whatever gets dark, you can always come home.
If you’re lost, tired, or hurting… come home.
I am home. I’m not going anywhere.
I love you. It will never change!
Facts about me that you probably wouldn’t guess!
1. Garri is a staple for me - I could honestly have it three times a day. Upsets me when people tag it as “sapa food”.
2. My playlist is gospel only - yes I listen to other genres, but on rare occasions.
3. I struggle with attention, though I may feign otherwise, quickly becomes too much.
4. I know many people - but only have 3 intimate friends.
5. It doesn’t take much to impress me - a little effort goes a long way with me. I’m easily won over.
6. I’m extremely insecure about my body - I cry about it all the time.
7. I often see myself becoming a pastor in the future - This is funny because I don’t even have a solid relationship with God ATM. But Yh I love Jesus!
Did any of these shock you ?

Happy, happy birthday, my sister! My friend! Asumo mii gan gan!
Temitope Omowunmi, you’re an incredible human being, a friend in every inch of the word! You have shown me countless times how deeply and truly you love me. In a world where most relationships/friendships are transactional, you’ve given me the purest form of love, and I do not take it for granted.
The woman in my life that her opinion counts, “Baje baje!” Omolabake mi owon. The crown of your head to the sole of your feet is blessed. I pray that God takes away every hurt that you feel and give you immeasurable peace. You will live long and live well, and I’ll be by your side till you’re old and grey.
🥂 to sisterhood and to love that won’t die. I love you! Thank you for everything, my shayla.
