We love a good love story. And unless you’re a witch (or the grinch), chances are, you do too.

From New Year resolutions, to reflecting on 2023 – some oversabi people are already talking about 2025 – the New Year hype is peaking. Maybe you are one of those on the new year frontline; you already set your goals (if you haven’t, take a look at our goal-setting guide for 2024) and you’re in […]

The year is over. You’ll soon start seeing “2023 recap” videos all over TikTok and Instagram, and you’ll hiss (loudly) because they are so annoying.

Having a “Detty December” has been a Nigerian tradition for almost a decade now, from the maiden use of the phrase in 2016 by Mr Eazi, it’s a wholehearted celebration of the past year.
