Woman Crush Sunday (WCS): Asisat Osoala.

     Asisat Lamina Oshoala was born on the 9th of October 1994, She  is a Nigerian professional footballer who plays for Spanish side FC Barcelona Femení in the Primera División as a forward.She was named best player and was the highest goal scorer at the 2014 FIFA U-20 Women's World Cup. She was also named the second top goalscorer with the Super Falcons team who won the 2014 African Women's Championship.
Asisat Oshoala joined Arsenal Ladies in March 2016 from Liverpool.The striker started her career at Nigerian Lower Division side FC Robo before moving up a league to join Rivers Angels in 2013, where she spent two years.
Oshoala then made the move abroad to sign for Liverpool Ladies. The 26-year-old was voted the best player at the African Women’s Championship during the Super Falcons' triumph in 2014.
Oshoala’s impressive debut season in the Women’s Super League saw her win the BBC Women’s Footballer of the Year award in 2015. 
     One reason she is our woman crush Sunday is, she is ever improving, in her words, "Personally I’m feeling great. I’ve been improving and feel I fit better into the way the team plays. I’ve been scoring goals in the preseason and things are going well".
In 2020, Nigeria international Asisat Oshoala helped Barcelona grab a record seventh Spanish Copa de la Reina title for the 2019-20 season following a 3-0 victory over Logrono in Malaga on Saturday.
The Nigerian delivered an impressive performance in attack as the Blaugranas claimed their second major title in the 2019-20 term after reclaiming the league crown for the first time since 2015.
Despite scoring 16 goals in 20 outings this term, Oshoala was left on the bench after she failed to hit the net in two games and came on as a second-half substitute to guarantee her side's win. Oshoala was in action for the final 25 minutes of the match to celebrate her second major title triumph for Barcelona, after clinching her first league title in Europe last summer.
After the title win for Barcelona, the Super Falcons captain heads out in high spirits to Antalya, where Nigeria aim to become the first African side to claim the Turkish Women's Cup.

Why do they keep staring?

In these few years God has blessed me with on earth,I have seen so many things:the good,the bad,the ugly.I am so curious about men and their way of thinking.He is driving on the road,he is looking,in the office,he is looking,in the park,he is looking,even in church he is looking...Chei!what is it?.He gladly boasts that every man is wired that way,he couldn't be different. Ladies,have you ever been looked at by a guy so badly that you almost puked?There are those whose stares make you feel like smacking them behind and saying,don't be silly!.There are others whose stares make you feel embarrased and uncomfortable but there are those who make you feel like a queen made to be worshipped.Hahah...yea,I know that feeling...hey,don't worry the feeling is mutual.I like it too.I mean who doesn't want to feel wanted?. However,I am particularly curious about why some men just go bonkers at the sight of a woman.Why his nose will trace a perfume to the owner?Why his mouth will hang ...

Reasons for sharing

Knowledge,to me is closely linked to our identity.sharing is generally a willful method of disemminating useful information to other people.By sharing, we build realationships so that what we share is received and treated with respect.Actually,knowledge sharing and relationships are interlinked.It is therefore,imperative that we share love which is the bedrock of any lasting relationship.

I know you are just wondering why you should bother about sharing anyway,you probably feel you are not loved enough or not loved at all.mhnnn...the question is how much love do you give,how much love can you afford to share?

Tired of giving!

Oops!it's been rain rain rain in this part of my world for the past one week.At times it can be really annoying,especially when you have planned a fun day and the rains come pouring down making the ground all wet and irritating.If there is anything I love to do,it is shopping.I had planned to go shopping and the rain wouldn't just go away so I threw caution to the wind and grabbed my little umbrella.Out in the rain I went,quickly hailed a cab and zoomed to the market. The entrance to the market was something else.Obviously like me,the rain couldn't deter so many people.People were milling around everywhere,even beggars sat put in their positions begging for alms from all who passed them.One of them particularly caught my attention.Unlike others he was standing,his buttons were all undone and I saw something like a rope connected to his navel,tracing the end,I saw something like a drip or something but some kind of satchet with some content in it in his hand and then there w...
