Ms Aike recalls that her first introduction to social media was in 2013. Her online writing journey and advocacy, however, did not truly start until 2014.
She began sharing her perspectives on a range of issues via Snapchat in 2014. She states that she logged into Snapchat one day, and the rest was history. Her advocacy on Snapchat started in 2014 and ended in 2018.
Ms Aike’s advocacy on Instagram began in 2015.
She then created a WordPress account in 2015 and continued her advocacy via Blogging. This ended in 2020.
In 2015 she tried her hands at Twitter/X, before eventually permanently deleting it. She then tried her hands again at Twitter/X in 2019, opting to use Twitter/X as a canvas for her thoughts, which she would then post on her Instagram page. She has opted to not be active on Twitter/X and her Twitter/X account has remained private.
Ms Aike briefly branched out to YouTube in 2018. Her YouTube channel has since been deleted.
In 2019 she began sending out her non-fiction and fiction work to literary magazines for publication. The literary magazines are, Afritondo (2019), The Eyes of African Women (2019), Literally Stories (2023), Ariel Carter (2023), Down In the Dirt Magazine (2023 & 2024), Fiction on the Web (2024), and Book of Matches (2025).
In 2020 she bid farewell to her WordPress account and upgraded to a professional writer’s website.
In June 2020 she featured in an episode of Dr Bola Adebayo’s Podcast, A Deep Look Into The Issue of Rape, where she lent her voice to the growing conversation centred around sexual abuse, mental health and emotional intelligence.
In 2023, Ms Aike created a new Instagram account as she wanted to advance the seriousness of her writing career, and start on a clean slate.
In September 2023, Multiple Faces of Keke was shortlisted for the February 2024 Issue ‘Where Icarus Went’ in the Down In the Dirt Magazine. In February 2024, Multiple Faces of Keke was officially published in the February 2024 Issue ‘Where Icarus Went’ in the Down In the Dirt Magazine
In January 2025 she featured on Power Ace Radio and Heart to Heart with Abagaba, where she explored her journey to self-actualisation, navigating culture, cultural ills, child abuse, taking back your power, and the backlash that accompanies having uncomfortable conversations.
In February 2025, she published her debut book, This Thing in My Head.
In May/August 2025, her author website was upgraded once again.
In February 2026, This Thing In My Head was nominated for The African Laureate Award, In March 2026, This Thing In My Head was selected as a winner of The African Laureate Award.
With about 12-13 years of online experience, Ms Aike has observed that when it comes to her work, (her Snaps from Snapchat, her perspectives she would share on her Instagram account, her Blog posts, her Tweets from Twitter/X, and her published non-fiction and fiction work) the most successful interactions with people were usually on Snapchat and Instagram. As they were often more open to listening to another person’s perspective, digesting it, and engaging in discourse. Sometimes they disagreed, sometimes they agreed, and other times, they were in the middle. Her experience with Twitter/X however, differs. When it comes to Twitter/X, she has noticed that oftentimes, people seem to purposely make flagrant remarks in order to get a reaction. They do not actually want to engage in meaningful discourse, and as someone whose main mission has been to spark meaningful discussions, Twitter/X has not been the platform for that.
Some of the work she has done over the years has now been archived. She believes that with time comes growth and refinement, so when the time comes to compile and showcase all of the work she has done over the years, she would like that to be reflected. Outside of her first Blog post in 2015 which has since been deleted, her Blog posts as well as her published non-fiction and fiction work are still accessible.
