  My face is always deadpan You cannot know the half of what I go through The emotions ravaging my heart The thoughts fighting in my head Fighting for expression Longing for release My face must be deadpan I cannot express the hurt inside I’ll be labelled weak ,you see I am a full blooded African woman I cannot, must not be anything but strong I’ll be cautioned ‘ To control myself!’ I must keep up with this dead pan mask For your good and mine I observe all societal niceties I smile when appropriate And frown when needed I cannot allow people to hear The very loud noises in my head I must be deadpan I must be strong The pressure threatening to submerge me Must be submerged by me No one must see it No one must know it It appears my life is great It appears I have it all But,I know I’m loosing my marbles I am going crazy But I must keep pretending I must keep being dead pan Solape Adetutu Adeyemi is a creative writer, blogger(  lifewithtutu.blogspot.com ) and poet.

If this is any definition to go by, one would then be committing an error to prejudge the culture of a group of people by the standards of a different cultural group. This, in no small measure,  explains the misconceptions and rift among cultural groups within a multicultural environment as Nigeria.  A critical pointification here, will define a phenomenon that has captured my attention recently : The concept of looking one in the face. The predominant ethnic groups in Nigeria are Yoruba, Igbo and Hausa, but for the sake of what drives my discourse here, my focus will ray on the Yorubas and Igbos. The aforementioned groups occupy different geographical borders; but beyond this, their distinct worldview distances them. One of such worldview, would be the phenomenon of what “looking someone in t
