WHY ASK WHY?

I was born in a Christian home and as a result, I had a Christian background. We don't joke with church attendance. Mum and Dad will instruct us to go dress up when it’s some thirty minutes to service time.

We must go to church with our Bible, a jotter and a pen.

That was to enable us take notes during the church meeting. It was always as though our lives primarily depends on the notes we took in church. As at then having a jotter to pen down notes in church was an emblem of being a good, supposed God fearing Christian. We would look down on people

PEARL OF THE SAHEL

Bless you, Mariam Mimi
Pride of the North Eastern Nigeria
The solace to the soul of many
In the anguish hotness of the
dry plane of the Sahel Savanna.
When I saw her upon a nearer view,
My heart quiver in amazement of such
An exquisite soul, beauty in glasses
An angelic spirit, yet a woman too.
She dazzles like the morning stars,
And steps of virgin liberty.





She is a phantom of delight
To see her is a picture,
To hear her is a tune.
Her beauty is like that of a fairy tale,
Beauty beyond stretches of
imaginations.
An heavenly beauty in

BEFORE YOU GIVE UP

I love traveling, in fact I think it’s high time I added traveling to my long list of hobbies. My love for visiting new places, meeting new people, experiencing new ways of life in other people’s culture is unprecedented.

Just as I was reminiscing over one of my trips to the south east of Nigeria, I tried to link some of the experiences on the roads together to come up with something I believe we can all learn from as it relates to life challenges. 

While traveling from one place to another, we often need to buy stuffs on the road e.g. Bread, Bottle water, soft drinks amongst other things. Those guys selling those things honestly seriously inspires me. 

Now let’s take a life scenario for instance.

SHE HAD IT ALL

I had always wanted her, she is adorable, gorgeous and her simplicity is mind blowing. 

 

The first time I set my eye on Asake, Emotions ran through my veins, nerves and neurons uncontrollably.

My hormones began popping extraordinarily.

This is not usual I thought. Asake would come early for church meetings, well dressed in her neatly ironed clothes with her camisole around her neck. It was as though she was an angel

I AM INDISPENSABLE

I have been in love, but this was strange! Absolutely strange!

My heart skips at the mention of her name. When my phone rings, and I gazed at the screen and she is the one calling,

my heart limps for joy. Occasionally it’s like we have been together since the beginning. She understands me excellently and so do I.

I remembered the first day I set my eyes on her, it was like heaven spoke into my ears that she is the anointed one. Her beauty swayed me off

ABOUT SOCIAL MEDIA (II)

On Sunday after church, I came back late, and was obviously very hungry cum tired. 

I saw my neighbor frying plantain and I begged to partake of the fried something (lols) to be supported with a bowl of garri.

While making out with this, a friend walked in and jokingly said;

"Bro Biyi, she e ma mu garri ni, eyin ti mo mo Lori Facebook yato si eyin ti mo hun ri o"

THE KEY TO RELEVANCE

Whenever we are to visit our grandparents in our home town, there is always a need to deliberately get the car in good shape to avoid it breaking down in the midst of nowhere.

We often enjoy our visitation to the village because it’s the closest experience we would ever have of the beauty and serenity of nature.

Grandma would take us to the farmland where we would get to harvest some fresh vegetable leaves with which special delicacy of Efo riro
