Assumptions

Assumptions In one of the states in the federation, a non-Muslim commissioner was given a Muslim driver to be driving him for official duties. Religion had never been an issue between them. They both tolerated and respected each other's religion. Although they hadn't been together for long, the commissioner had tried his best to treat the driver with kindness. Sometimes he gave or bought him food. Sometimes he ignored him. One morning, the commissioner called the driver and asked him to drive him to a town some few kilometres away from the capital city, for a meeting with traditional rulers. The driver complained he hadn't eaten and requested for some time to eat. The commissioner pleaded with him and promised to provide him with food. The driver agreed. He rushed to the commisoner's residence, where the car was normally parked, started the car and drove it slowly to the exit door of the commissioner. He opened the back door, sat and, just before the driver

The Husband and Wife

Husband and wife My neighbour is a hard working, low income person who works as a clerk in a court while driving his car as taxi in the evenings to earn extra income. His wife is a petty trader who is not doing too badly but loves to put pressure on the man! She always believed she belonged to a "higher" class than their level of living. Always demanding things that are not needed. Anyway, one day she fell seriously ill and had to be operated upon after already spending two weeks on admission in the hospital. The poor husband had spent over N300,000 before the need for operation came up. Now he had to cough out another N84,000! He had nothing, he ran from pillar to post. His wife was dying, he was confused!! After a delay of two days without being able to raise money, he decided to use his car as a collateral to get loan for his wife's operation. As he was preparing to leave his room, his car keys fell underneath the bed. While trying to search for it, he not

THE SECRET OF A WOMAN

SECRET OF A WOMAN At one time, a newly married young man was shouting at his 20 years old wife and his father called him aside and said to him, 'We only shout at people our shouts or threats can frighten. But not to your wife. The way you are shouting, you are giving away your power to your wife.  Your threats make her stronger. Most men believe that when a woman is threatened, she gets subdued,  but women are not changed with fear.  A woman may  stay quiet when a man is threatening and shouting at her but she is not sitting down inside her. She is evaluating the man's weakness and how to subdue him rather.  Cast your mind back to those days men used to  beat their wives flippantly at slightest provocations, today most of  those men are older and they suffering consequences  Those women their husband were beating years back are the ones enjoying the marriage with their children today, the mothers have their children's sympathy, the men are at the receiving end

Please never for once forget there is a flicker of light at the end of this dark tunnel, the day is darkest just before dawn, the match is hottest just before the final whistle, the battle is fiercest just before the victor is announced, the pain is highest when the baby is almost out, *PLEASE RUN AND DON'T GET WEARY* I'd see you

The Law of Individuality

Have you ever wondered why you've not found someone else like you? Have you ever wondered why nobody's fingerprint matches yours? Have you ever wondered why those eyes are so big,  they're like they want to come out of their sockets? Have you ever wondered why your name is your name? Have you ever wondered why dad married mum? Have you ever wondered why you're so light or dark in complexion? Have you ever wondered why you are the last/second/first born? Have you ever wondered? The answer lies within your reach,  it is in you! Where is it? You may ask:    Straight and simple,  it is called *THE LAW OF INDIVIDUALITY*,  you're a customized being, have we seen a robot? It is programmed to carry out a particular task, outside that task it is non other than useless, but as humans,  we are almost like that,  but we are not! We are customized,  yes! But we can carry out various tasks. That's the difference, but we also come with a manual like the robot does.

The Night Season

  After graduating from high school in 2016 amongst the best,  I can't say I was the best but at least very well above average.  I remembered my literature teacher back then saying to us "not all of you would gain admission this year," of course he was right but right then and there I categorized the people he was talking about and of course, I can't be part! How wrong I was! That year I didn't get admitted into the university, that isn't new now abi? People don't get admitted so whats the big deal?   Still in my depressed state of not gaining admission, I had an accident! Gbam! My femur was broken! Can I ever walk again?(mind you the femur is the longest and strongest bone in the human body), that occurred January 31, 2017, how would I cope? Okay that's not a problem right? It happens, I went through surgery, came out alive,  Glory to God and I was discharged to walk on crutches for 3months. During these times, I wasn't able to stand by
