Femi Otedola grins as he receives a nostalgic gift from his daughter, Temi Otedola

Femi Otedola was all smiles as he unboxed a nostalgic gift from his daughter, Temi Otedola, who recently tied the knot with afrobeat singer, Mr. Eazi. Before he got to the gift proper, he opened an adorable note that read: “No matter how hard it gets, at least you don't have ugly children.” He opened the box, which contained an Ayo, also known as Ayo Olopon, a traditional Yoruba strategy board game from Nigeria played by two players using a carved wooden board with 12 holes and 48 seeds or pebbles.

Open Relationships: Are They Really the Future of Love?

Open relationships are weird. I’ve always wondered what makes them make sense. Is it because, as a society, we’ve accepted that the average man can’t be with just one woman? It’s not me saying it—it’s all over social media. Or maybe it’s because transactional relationships make more sense compared to the emotional trauma that comes with conventional relationships. With open relationships, a lot of the strain and responsibility that comes with monogamy is eliminated. What Exactly Is an Open Relationship? An open relationship is a non-monogamous relationship in which partners agree to see other people romantically or sexually while maintaining their primary relationship.
