Many are twerking their way into marriage instead of praying their way in. Watching most marriage reception programs on IG is quite disappointing. Newly wed couples display well rehearsed dance steps on the dance floor but when it's time to say prayers, they mutter and stammer few words. Do you observe the bridal entry in most marriages today? You will see the energy the ladies put into dance rehearsals to twerk their way into the venue. Same with the guys too. They would "gbe-body and gbese" all the way in. I totally understand the joy of the moment and it's really not a bad thing for someone who has adequately prepared for the marriage journey. What many youths prepare for nowadays are for wedding ceremonies and not marriage itself. They forget that wedding is only a ceremony that last few hours while marriage lasts a lifetime. If you could spend resources and time to ensure that the few hours wedding ceremony is "loud gan" (a talk of the town), while

Well, not just him, they all did when they got to the seat of power. Is there a genie on the seat of power that turns them all to politicians? Not really, it's just the power play. Over the years, we have seen philanthropist with selfless personality being moved (or pushed) to vie for public posts so they could do more good for the people with state resources.  Not to mention names though, even comrades who fought good fights for the wellbeing of the populace as activists, and who the public thought would be a Messiah in government also disappointed when they got to the seat. What happened? They became politicians and drowned in the pool of its dirty games. Playing politics & politics playing. There is a saying that absolute power corrupts absolutely. The above proverb means that whenever a person has absolute power over people or things, it morally affects their nature and fills them with destructive pride. However, it takes humility to be save from this mind corruption.

Don't think it, just run! We run, yes we always do! Isn't that a problem? When we can't face problems to see them solved but instead we run! I've thought it over, and statistics have proven it to be, that we have the best, creative, and talented, but yet we always run. We run to foreign grounds to be productive and leave our roots in ruins. Billions have gone, millions are plotting to cross and the number will continue to rise if nothing happens. Is that all we can do, I mean is that all we should do? Some people sacrificed to make the places we run to habitable but we are unwilling to pay the price. But how? They've failed us, or should I say, we allowed them to fail us. They will continue to fail and milk us in corruption because they know we would only run without a fight. We fight those who close their borders at us instead of fighting those who pushed us out to the borders. If our own people, our own leaders could so corruptly treat us, why wouldn'

Could it be that we drifted off fate by drifting apart? Could it be that we were meant to be? Can we go back in time to the yester year when we parted ways? To the very same path we trod to our seperation. Maybe, there lies the clue we missed. Could it be? But, what if it was meant to be. What if we weren't meant to be. Could it be fate doing what it does best, using circumstances to drift us apart to the right path of destiny because we weren't meant to be? Could it be...? What if? What if our union was a threat and they needed to get us apart? Isn't that a likely possiblity? That we were caused to be drifted and made not to be by powers afraid of the union? No! But all things they say works for good to those who love God. Or don't we love? Maybe it was a one sided love! Yes, that could be. But destiny has our fate and our faith is in the God of destiny, so why worry about our fate. Yes no cause for worries! But we have a part to play! What part to play? What

A Muslim boy took a wee in my presence and asked for water when he was done to rinse his "John Thomas". I asked him the meaning of what he had just done and he said he didn't know, but his father taught him to do so. You see this is one problem with religion. That is why a lady could use the Bible as an ash tray despite a Christian upbringing. We teach them and enforce the religious rituals but leave out the conviction. You force a child to obey religious rules under your roof not because the child is convinced or knowledgeable about the spiritual implications, but because the child must oblige to the parents orders. This is why once the child is outside the parent's house, he/she will follow his/her lifestyle and conviction. Believe is a thing of the heart, not a show off religious rituals practice. The Bible says teach (not force) your child the ways of the lord, that he may not depart from it. What many parents do is force a lifestyle on their children instead

Can we turn up without cars, probably on a bike (okada)? Let's have the cars remain in the garage and see the lady who cares to stay, the lady who will see beyond the moment's 'ride' but into what rides the future. It all begins to matter, when we don't have to 'steal' daddy's car to impress or don't have to brag in mummy's financed tuxedo to woo. When all she wants is you and not the showoffs. When she can feel secured to be bare faced and bare minded with you in a hearty talk. It all begins to matter when what attracts you to him is your inner beauty and not the expensive 'makeup'. When your nude is covered by his strength, honesty and care. When you don't have to be perfect or hide behind 'perfection' to please him. The perfect date night is not that expensive eat out, in a posh and sweet scent car, that will end on the bed of immorality. No! A date is an avenue to meet and not a venue to eat or impress. It can be as

If you go through my phone contact, half of my contacts are those of current and ex-clients. I still have them as contact and keep in touch with some of them. They were and still remain my network of contacts as my rapport with most of them was a good one. If I contact them, I get their attention and if they do contact me, they get my attention too. That is the power of a sales person. However, many Nigerian sales executive do not understand this relationship network. Immediately they get laid off on a sales job, they lay off and close door to all their client contacts as well. Some do not even attempt the courtesy of informing their clients about their job status or resignation, they just go incommunicado. The customers are not your bosses, they should not be the victim of your grudges. Twice I've been shocked by the immature attitude of realtors sales reps who had cordial rapport with me on the job but Immediately they got laid off, they just thrashed me too. Well, too bad f
