We are all Vulnerable

Ladies are moved by what they hear, men are moved by what we see. Both are vulnerable, we go out daily and see, they walk daily and hear. Let's not make one seem vulnerable than the other. Value each other. No one is likely to the snatched and the other isn't Ladies if you have a good man, trust me lots of ladies are equally playing their cards well to have him, he fights daily to remain faithful to you like I said if you have a good man. He is battling with a lot. Never take him for granted cos some random guy is hovering around you and sweeping you off. Someone is doing same to him somewhere too. Someone has consistently made him her prayer point too. Pls show genuine care for him, don't see him highly responsible for all as much as he knows he is, please don't be the reason he falls. The man you believe is a superman is having sleepless nights over how to ensure he stays faithful to you Please call him, check on him, discuss with him, brothers do same to her. It'...

Family is Everything

We are a clan, we aren't bond by just blood and water, we are love bound. Our backbones never crack in our circles because we have got series of back bones. We have got one another's back. While I run a marathon to meet a need they are meters away raising hands to help. They inflict so much pressure when they perceive success in the neighborhood till its attained. We aren't separate by distance we are a body functioning in diverse ways. Never go far to get the exact link of my person, it's hidden in the prayers they make, we are a team with God as our defender, our wings are well played we fly our colors and team goals aren't obstructed by oppositions, rather we oppose contradictions on our path. They are preachers who carry our gospels and announce our works before men and nations, they have got a large heart so your wrongs aren't shockers to them, they have seen it ahead of time and have a reason to forgive. They make our dream, build them and celebrate them. ...

LOVE FOR MOTHERS

Image
To the beauty whose womb was my house for nine months regulating the temperature and ensuring I was well fed without haven seen my face To the queen whose back and arms made the perfect bed space where sleep and best of dreams were had even without her hearing meaningful words from mouth let alone thanking her. To the woman whose heart was my habitation occupying her daily thoughts, whose cautions were my worst nightmares till I grew wise to understand she meant the best for me. To the business woman whom all her business was concentrated on me, investing all she had and didn't have to ensure I got the best of life. To the jewel whose neck sank in not befitting gold chains and best necklaces just cos she saw every kobo too vital in my upbringing that she deprived herself of luxury. To the medical doctor who never wrote and MBBS exam but knows what's wrong with me even without explanation. Administering the best of treatment to me ensuring I was stable emotionally, p...

SHE NEVER LOVED US

We woke up as usual, storming the streets for our daily hustles and bustles for what to eat and drink.  Hi! Holla! was how we greeted with hands smashing against the other and laughers doing works on arts on our cheeks. Our kids will hurriedly run to jump on us whenever we found our ways to our places of abode. Our rumpled shirts from stink and sweat spoke with loud voices how our days handled us "fair or dark" but we never saw a crime in this adventure. No! Not even from the pressure of sleeping late and waking up early, growing as kids our dreams walked the streets with us so we even got used to having dreams without even laying our heads. Cos they lived rather in our minds and expressly grew in our lips. But then! We lost all of these when a foreign one came in, this one I haven't heard or seen before. Without a shape crept into our abode and metamorphosis led to its population increasing. Could this be God's new invention we pondered as we continued with our daily...

NEWS FLASH..

News Flash: It is finished... This was what I woke up to meet as I hurriedly placed calls across to know what's finished. Could it be the last meal in the house haven been locked in the house for days, or Its the number of cases affected with the plague... Lost in happiness and worry I couldn't detect myself as I kept trying to know and all signals wouldn't connect......  I was notorious and a crime addict at that, crime was my life and it just defines my present and future. My only hope was loosing it someday "I mean whatever it was that held me bound".. We were turned lovers.. "My chains and i" they bound me close with close embrace around my wrist and feet keeping me warm.. I wasn't so comfortable at first but I loved the feeling with time. For every time I tried to run the sweet words brought me back enticing me and reminding me of how long we have been together. I had a tag attached to me... Barabbas, my home with behind BARS, I guess I was dest...

Lesson From Dads Desk

Image
As a younger boy dad will always say TImothy go get me water, and as i start going, he will say before that get me something from the room, soon as i come from the second errand, he will send me on another making me forget the first errand... After series of this he will always give me a crazy slap which always made me cry and hate him... But at thisn point, i must attest that at this point it has been helpful.. When you get too involved in activities, you end up loosing focus on your dream and primary purpose.. Making you jack of all trade master of none. Its wiser when you do one at a time or if you have to do more, dont get yourself boxed up doing too many things that you loose focus...

LESSON FROM THE STREETS

Image
So Yesterday afternoon. i was walking outside the Gate of the University of Benin Main Campus and i was amazed... On getting outside, i saw a large number of people screaming out loud and look at the sky.. Why they screamed i didn't know.. Guess i only have a clue till now (they say MARY)..... I did my best to stare and see who they were seeing but all i saw was the clouds moving in different directions.. from the same sky where they saw Mary... I felt it was just me but many others started but may be we didn't know enough as to seeing what they saw or something else.. Thats by the way... As i walked away i got a message from within saying:: Everyone has got their own view about everything. The fact that people don't see our dreams as bright as we do aren't being wicked.. We all cant just see things at same pace The fact that people don't see the future you see of you doesn't mean it does or doesn't exist.. If you believe id does keep firm to it and if y...

THE MILITARY IN NOODLES

Image
In the year 1982, a soldier arose and commenced from the army of NOODLES FORCE. He received thorough training and tutelage in which he was steadfast and active until 2005 when he broke a record as the first man to save a multitude by taking his time to discover ammunition that is so big that it could save many lives at once. This led to jealousy from his enemies who rose against him from different angles. On the 7th of October, 2010 when false allegations were counted against him that he was including some devices in the ammunitions that could kill the citizens. In this he did not relent yet was diligent, honest and humble. On 11th of October, 2011 his honesty gave him a good reward as he was declared innocent and was promoted to the post of a CAPTAIN. In this he didn’t feel proud until his hard work found him out and today he is the no 1 most celebrated ARMY in the world a FIELD MARSHALL. His service vestments are: Wheat flower – Breast plate Vegetable oil – Shield ...

NIGERIA OF MY DREAM

Image
I weep in fear I feel so dim with drear Longing for a ray of light To make it come out bright It started with a fight Brought about great fright Children out of sight Parent gets the bite Eyes fading off Plans falling off War now our conclusion Killing now a profession Men can no longer trust Like metals hearts now rust The wealthy defend their pockets The masses move with empty buckets Education now a second order discipline Yet we call the youth leaders of tomorrow I cry for my dream I wish it wasn’t dim I pray it comes true After all what I have been through Days of starvation Days of stagnation I see a nation where the coat of arms means a lot Where the anthem is not sang for naught Where our currency will not be bought Where our flag will be without a blot Where our motto will calm down wrath Where our leaders will have us in thought I see citizens being equal Where parental connections won’t be the ticket I see men boasting of three square meal with good roads I see our...

JUST FOR YOUR BIRTHDAY

Image
Just like a little sida weed She grows with great speed Just like yesterday when she was born She has sprung up among thorns Her natural beauty astonishes Like that which garnishes Her voice sounds so charming Making me want to hear it coming Her value is above rubies Not compared to any goodies Her walk looks so tender Making me kind of wonder Something hides under this Something with great bliss The beauty that originated from that day The hour and minute of your birthday

ITS YOUR BIRTHDAY, BE NORMAL

Image
How time flies, just like yesterday a baby was born and within a twinkle of an eye, he/she is an adult A times I sit and ponder how does this happen? Food makes us grow but does it really mean it is the source? Not sure I remember when I was five, my mum asked me, HOW WILL YOU LIKE TO CELEBRATE YOUR BIRTHDAY? “NORMAL WAY” I said, You may wonder what the NORMAL way meant. Normal way could be in a grand style, it could also mean just like people come and wish you happy birthday or Give thanks to God in your closet then be with your friends. To me I believe the normal way is give thanks to God in your closet and then hang with your friends just to make sure you and they are happy. Why is it always normal? It is because with that you really know your value but the other ways, they may come to eat your food and leave, or just wish you happy birthday because they have no choice but being with friends I believe you are 95% sure of security and happiness till now, I like it the NORMAL WA...

HE IS ABLE

Lying frustrated With great level of hatred Anger being elevated Nothings seems coordinated Tears taste like ice cream Day and night I think of my dream Hoping for the day of great beam Nevertheless it looked just too dim A voice from beneath Screaming with defeat If only i could edit Indeed it wasn’t legit A better voice now audible Loveable and commendable With low tone so humble Saying to me “HE IS ABLE”

DONT BLAME MAN

Image
Don’t blame Adam He never wanted to give a damn Don’t blame Eve Guess she was so naive Don’t blame David He only wanted to take the lead Don’t blame Samson HE was ruled by sin Don’t blame Judas He only wanted to make the scripture come to pass Don’t query Sapphire and Ananias They just couldn’t follow true self denials Commend Abraham His faith showed him the spiritual ram Jacob was really a great wrestler Could he have once been a butcher I envy Joseph He ran away from self Don’t blame the young prophet He never thought the old prophet was a suspect Saul wasn’t just jealous He was fighting against his loss No one should be blamed for anything To every occasion there is a unique thing

HER VIRGINITY

Image
Once upon a time, our sister knew no man – a virgin Until the day gigantic penises snuck into the story Hungry lions, they emerged from their hide-out Like starved vultures dividing the carcass They leaped on her – their helpless prey Shameless bastards To satisfy their dark desires They rape off her, of riches and pride Even spilling their disgusting milk on her face! Naked Scarred breast Ashamed Crying “Help!” Arise o’ come patriots Our sister’s call obey Arise let’s save our Nation From the rapists’ grip And restore unto her The garb of virginity she once wore Written by: Yakubu Andrew Edited by: Kukogho Iruesiri Samson Via: Words Rhymes and Rhythm

IS DAD GOD?

Image
He rules us – a fiery beast Supreme! Unquestionable fist He says he knows what’s best for all Through winter, summer, spring and fall To him we’re enslaved appliances To rule and stomp to compliance Our welfare his least agenda For his, we must run helter, skelter His broad shoulder is no shelter They do not hug, care or pamper They house the force for swinging whips And sit upon the kicking hips The plundering shark of the ocean Poison ivy body lotion Riding on intimidation No soul, no heart, no compassion Sadist monster, dream killing mists Inside his heart, insanity feasts Father’s story told around me Sound strange to hear, stings like a bee Honour, respect, by love, we earn Watch beasts, fishes or fowls and learn The gods, for love, meddle with men A frail chicken turns brooding hen No grievances my heart will bear Nor will my eyes shed single tear For soulless beast or puny god Their death softens injustice’s rod Let no man bring low enough To hate his sorry self th...

CHAOS IN UNIBEN COMMUNITY

Chaos everywhere in the apartments as all the faculties has decided to pick the major and superior one amongst them. The King of the community Prof. G.O. Oshodin has called for a gathering of all the faculties to send their representatives to gather reasons why they think they should rule the other faculties.
