Every Sunday, I’m supposed to go to church with my aunt. She’s a devout Christian and insists that everyone in the house goes to service. The thing is, I haven’t actually been to church in months. Instead, I use that time to hang out with friends at East Legon. We drink, eat, and talk until it’s time to go home.

When I get back, I always…

Last year, I borrowed GHS 500 from a friend. I told her it was for my mum’s medical bills, but the truth is, I used the money to buy a dress and shoes for a party. The outfit was stunning, and I got so many compliments that night, but I couldn’t fully enjoy myself knowing I’d lied to get it. Since then, my friend hasn’t brought up the…

I have been masturbating for 12 years now. Yh I know, but I seem not to know how to stop it. It started when I found porn on my dad’s phone. I enjoyed watching it though and started stroking myself. It happened e when I was in class 4 and now I’m in my final year of University. It’s embarrassing but I enjoy it a lot. I’m a Christian by the way… Read more

We had a deal… no strings attached. That was the whole point with Afia. Just fun, no
drama, no expectations. It worked for months. She’d call, I’d show up, and we’d
leave it at that. Then I met Ama. She wasn’t like Afia. She’s soft, caring, the kind of girl you want to bring home to your family. So, when things got serious with Ama, I cut it… Read more

There’s this guy on campus who’s practically a celebrity. He’s tall, good looking, and always hanging out at the basketball court. Every time I pass by, I can’t help but notice how all the girls fawn over him. During hall week, there was a bonfire night, and I spotted him in the crowd. For the first time, he wasn’t surrounded by people, so I…

@There’s something unequivocally difficult about mourning the loss of a parent that’s still alive. It’s a foreign and restless void that never really receives the closure it needs. It’s a constant and resonating voice in the back of your mind that tells you you’re different. Your family is different. It tells you you’re not good enough and…

I wake up with a pounding head, knowing I drank too much again. Another promise broken, another morning of regret. I told myself I’d quit, but alcohol has become my only friend. It’s a friend that has cost me everything—my job, my family, my home. I’ve watched my life unravel, piece by piece, because of my addiction. But here I am, standing at… Read more

In 24 hours, my dad is going to share the news of his new wife and introduce us to his kids. In less than 24 hours, he is going to manage to destroy us without even trying. Well, I guess he did try. He doesn’t realise we already know of his “other family” and that this new wife has been in his life since we were little kids.

He doesn’t realize…

My name is Emmanuel, and I’m a 25-year-old graduate from UESD, Somanya. I’m currently living the Accra. Growing up, I was always an excellent student and a bit of a loner. But when I got to university, everything changed.

I was introduced to a new world of freedom and experimentation. At first, it was just about having fun and trying new… Read more

Hm. I don’t even know how it happened. One minute, he was my best friend, the person I could complain to about anything like lecturers, life, you name it and the next, he was the only thing I could think about. Ei?

We were walking back from class, laughing about how our lecturer thought he was some kind of stand-up comedian. He nudged me with…

My husband and I have been married for 2yrs now. We dated for 2yrs before we finally got married.
We developed what we call a tradition for the family where we eat at Starbite restaurant at East Legon every Sunday evening. This was just to release burdens and have a taste of food outside.
My husband has been very caring, providing me… Read more

HIV brought me to my lowest point, but I refused to let it define me. I’ve learned to coexist with this disease, finding strength I never knew I had. The hardships are real, but they won’t break me. I stand tall, sharing my story with pride. The journey has been long and challenging, filled with moments of doubt and despair. Accepting how I…
