• You already know that HERtitude is the biggest hottest festival for women in Nigeria. If you’ve already gotten your ticket, here’s what we have in store for you:


    Bouncy castle

    HERtitude isn’t a party for adults. It’s a party for adults that want to come down from all the Lagos stress. At HERtitude, we’re going to give you the chance to play like a child again. We have a bouncy castle with your name on it. Don’t thank us yet. Wait till you get there. 

    Food and drinks 

    There will be lots of food and drink options to choose from. Bring your monies and prepare to stuff your face. Not too much, though. You still need to be able to dance and play games. 

    Games 

    Not the kind y’all play on these streets, no. From Jenga to musical chairs and board games, there’ll be no thinking here, just games.

    Photo booths 

    Because we’re counting on you to shut the house down with your hottest fits, we’re bringing the paparrazzi. Come prepared to slay because we’ll be taking a lot of pictures.

    Tattoo and piercing stall 

    Because you only live once, babes. Get tatted and pierced to your heart’s content.

    Gifts 

    Don’t tell anybody but the first 70 women to arrive at HERtitude get free head, shoulder and back massages, courtesy of Dermaspace, our associate sponsor. Aside from that, there will be many more gifts to receive during the festival. 

    Nonstop music 

    Our badass DJ and your favourite female musical artists will be serenading us with good music. So when I say prepare to dance, take it as a threat. 

    Art classes 

    We’ll also have paint & sip and pottery classes because we want to see the artist in you. You can book your classes here if you’ve already bought your tickets. We can’t wait to see you there. 

    Don’t forget the festival starts by 3 p.m. and ends by 9 p.m. If you’re still unsure of what to wear to HERtitude, here’s a list of hot babe fits that Deola compiled for you.

    Buy your tickets 

    Because having fun at HERtitude won’t even be possible if you don’t have a ticket. If you haven’t gotten one, fix up, babes. If you have, walk with me, as the gorgeous gorgeous babe that you are. 

    Prepare your outfit

    You can either buy a brand new fit or put two or three pieces from your wardrobe together, and viola, a hot girl fit. If you’re not sure where to start, here’s an article on some of the hottest fits to choose from. You know we always have your back.

    Practice some dance steps in front of your mirror 

    Because you will be dancing a lot at HERtitude. We have a badass DJ, a live band and some of your favourite female artists coming in. The least you can do for us is be ready. So get up and make sure your moves are up to date. 

    Gather your funds  

    At HERtitude, you will have access to drinks, food and other activities that cost money, like a “paint and sip” session and pottery classes. There will also be vendors stocking things you absolutely need to buy. Long story short, gather your monies.

    Socialize 

    Say hi to the woman in front of you. Tell the woman beside you she’s beautiful. Give hugs, after you’ve gotten their consent, of course. Be a cheerful sport. Remember you’re there to have fun, so make sure you do. 

    Hydrate 

    Remember to drink lots of water. You’re going to be dancing, playing games, and probably, drinking. We don’t want you waking up the next morning like you were hit by a truck, so please, hydrate.

    If you still haven’t gotten your ticket for HERtitude, here’s your chance to change that

  • Yes, you read that right! You already know that at Zikoko, we carry women on top our heads like nobody’s business. Aside from our category dedicated to women, and the many stories we write about women, we’re going a step further to throw a party just to celebrate women. 

    Here’s a list of things you need to know about the festival: 

    It’s called HERtitude. 

    Why HERtitude? Because women get dissed for having an attitude in response to the many issues we face, and we want to reclaim that word. If Shero and Heforshe can be a thing, so can HERtitude. 

    Who is invited?

    Just in case you missed it, only women are invited to this party. If we catch any man there, it’s on sight. 

    When is it happening?

    The festival will happen on the 28th of May, also known as the last Saturday of the month by 3 p.m. to 9 p.m. This is your cue to block your calendars and avoid “had I known”. 

    Where is it happening? 

    That’s still a secret. Only the hot girlies who’ve booked their tickets will get the location in their inbox. Purrrr. 

    What to expect? 

    First things first, prepare to shake your ass because there will be music. There will be sip and paint classes, pottery classes and self-defense classes. There will be many games to play while we serenade you with good music. I’m talking cards, Jenga, musical chairs, etc. We don’t do “Take a shot or Kiss Tunde” in this house. 

    Dress code 

    Just wear your hottest fit, and we’ll be there to receive you.

    What should I bring? 

    Bring yourself in a hot fit, and another bad bitch if you got an early bird ticket. You also need to come with some money to get yourself food, drinks and other items available for sale at the venue. 

    Who is bankrolling us? 

    Easy! ChipperCash is our headline sponsor, while Busha and Aura are our associate sponsors. 

    With these few points of mine, I hope I’ve convinced you that HERtitude is the place to be on the 28th of May, 2022. 

    You can buy your tickets here. See you there. 

  • Between being funny, intelligent, beautiful, unique and God’s greatest gift to earth, there’s nothing women can’t do. At Zikoko, we carry women’s matters on our heads, which is why we’re planning a party for the girliesssss.

    Women are hardly ever wrong, but let’s talk about the few times they might have been. And the reasons why that happened. 

    Bathing with scalding hot water

    Going out and being in contact with sin will make you want to wash it off with the highest temperature of water you can find. Women don’t want to live in sin, we want to be rid of it, and the best way to do that is to burn it off our skins. 

    Spending our savings on enjoyment

    If you guys live more than once, we women know we only live once, and there’s always something to be celebrated. The same way we saved the one we use for enjoyment is how we’ll save another one for a more serious purpose.

    Rewarding ourselves after an inconvenience

    To be honest, this isn’t wrong; it’s a necessity. Life is already hard, and adulting is dealing with us. A little reward after a long day, week, or month doesn’t hurt anyone.

    Going out with our thoughts and prayers

    There’s a slight chance this one is wrong sha because every woman needs some vex money. Thoughts and prayers hardly ever fail us. Nonetheless, don’t go out without a little extra cash. 

    Dating men

    Dating men is reserved for God’s most patient soldiers. Whew. Love and light to the women who are dating Nigerian men, especially those living in Lagos. 

    Fitting our patience into our mini bags

    Mini bags are the most befitting bags for a Nigerian woman’s patience. We’re managing the little patience we have, and we only take a little of it when we go out.

    Not ironing our clothes

    Ironing is the worst chore known to man, and we women want an easy, stress-free life. Trust me when I say the sun in Nigeria is hot enough to straighten our clothes when we wear them.

    Saying we’re not hungry and then begging for our partner’s food

    Making decisions is so tough, and women want it all. We also want to eat some of our partner’s food to ensure they don’t die alone if the food is poisoned. 

    Helping our partners keep their clothes

    As you can see, we didn’t say “stealing”; we said “helping”. All women do is help you keep your clothes in a safer place, away from you and your wardrobe. You should be thanking your babe for being a forward thinker.
