OGBENI JARA E




Beware of men
they promise in your presence
And stab you in your absence.

Be mindful of your own business.
And with your dream never be careless.
Though the road may not be smooth.
If you don't quit you'll win, this is true.

Putting all your mind on men
Is nothing but a witch hunt.
And at the end you find yourself to blame
Then, reality dawn on you like a mother hen.

Expect nothing from Human clan!
And work with your own very hand.
Soon in your niche abundance will land.
For whose promise fail, if not human?

Ogbeni la oju e,
Kose ise t'eleda ran e.
One day you'll burst into lime light.
And that will end all your many plights.


Don't be lazy,
the lazy ones are blind.
Blind in the physical and mind.
And the reason men so kind are stingy.

Ore mi mase kawo gbera
Rise to your feet, be up and doing.
Though the journey may seems far.
Yet; if you don't go back you'll win.

Imole a tan, iyanu asele,
Help will come.
Still expect nothing from man.
But lean solely on your creator.

Till we meet again I am Odunayo Samuel AKERELE

Remember, keep being you and keep being good.

IT MATTER

IT MATTER! The topic to be discussed today is ‘it matter’, but the question is, what matters? Join me as we look into this deeply.  When I was in secondary school my Agricultural science teacher taught us then GERMINATION and the factor responsible for growth. Some of the factors are: viable seeds, moisture or water, nutrient (soil) and air (oxygen) When I meditatively considered these factors I realized that not even one out of them is un-important. If any of them isn’t available then the seed growth or germination is in jeopardy. Applying this into our lives’ journey as humans, it is evident that some factors also responsible for our own growth in every endeavors of life. Some take this serious while some others don’t.  When I say growth I do not mean increase in the number of age. Neither do I mean increase in stature. We grow in business, career, and ministry and so on. For us to grow in life we need to take these factors seriously. For instance the viabil...

I PROPOSED A DECEIT

I was born when the time was still partially measured by the throaty crow of the cocks. When if cock refuses to crow, the time was measured by the height of shadow.  I can still very much remember how my father would say the time is three o'clock in the afternoon because the shadow had reached a certain height on the wall in our backyard. Sometimes I was wowed at the level of his intelligence.  He didn't mark that particular spot on the wall and he never for once missed it. I tried doing but kept on missing it. Then, I used charcoal to Mark it. Isn't beautiful to say I also measured time by the height of shadow? Winks.  My father was a farmer and partially a hunter. He was very diligent and good at what he does. He had cocoa, cola nut, plantain, yam, maize, cowpea, and rice farms. He was rich in goats, and different kinds of fowls. Apart from the fact that he uses labor we the children were also part of the labors employ on his farm.  We worked all ye...

IS IT A CRUSH OR LOVE?

I was like a lone unpaired electron. I had friends who told me how they feel about the opposite gender. I had mocked quite a number of them. Because all that they told me about their feelings sound to me like foolishness. I had seen some of them went for two days without food just because of the opposite gender. They have always told me my time would come when I would need their help. I told them the love thing is not my thing. Wait for it they replied.  It was on Sunday evening, I was on my way to viewing center to watch Arsenal match against Chelsea.  I saw the damsel as I'd never seen before. She appeared like a gleaming lake. Her light was like a pale moon. The aura of her presence illuminates. Then I felt a nudge from inside; she is beautiful. Her smiles can make a bittered soul sweet. The smelt of her body was like that of an alabaster box. I saw her front empire and forgot about what had earlier transpired between me and my friends. Let me stay in this em...
