I'M SUING NIGERIA FOR KILLING HER

I know how much I’ve invested in you. Is it the all night wake or the time spent moving around just to get your food; is this how you bid me bye?

I had spent a whole lot on you; time, money and energy just to make sure you are fine. And indeed I can say you were doing just fine until recently. Your death brings back to memory how important you are to me and to all humanity.

You are just too unique; I remember how you turned a life that had been considered a waste into important and valuable products. How can I just forget how you turned a neglected land to fertile and productive land? You did not stop there; a land that’s scary to people you turned to a tourism that many now visit at will.

How can I forget your role in bringing back that dying soul to life? My thought is that you’d stay with me forever. Is this really good bye for real?

I’d been scolded, mocked on different occasions because of you. The world even painted me as an unserious dude because I take you serious. They said, how can I just be romancing with you when there are other better things I can do with my life? But I can understand, it’s just that they don’t know who you are and what you are capable of.

I bought you house, fridge, refrigerator and generator. I put your house inside fridge and refrigerator just to make sure you are comfortable. I know your worth and what you are capable of, even if the world doesn’t. Are you really waving bye?

I thought you would work for and walk with me to earn million dollars, I thought we ‘d both land a record breaking contracts. I fear the invisible more than some ladies fear cockroach but your love took me to the realm of the spirit and eventually love the invisible. Why did you leave so soon?

Though I picked you up from the mud like that of abattoir but in no distance time you proved to me that you never belonged there.

I remember when I first displayed your beauty on the surface of a circular but not too spherical world; it was appreciated by friends. You displayed your versatility, and this had earned you good reputation in medicine and industries.

It had also earned many scholars’ great awards. No wonder your name had been mentioned in nothing less than thousands published books and journals. I wonder what this world would be like, without you?
It’s saddening to know you didn’t die a natural death.

Nigeria government killed you. Power holding company (PHCN) truncated your life. PHCN is a murderer, Nigeria system is its ally. I’m suing Nigeria, I’m suing PHCN for killing my Bacterial isolate.

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...

THE MYTH OF AN AFRICA AKEE: NUTRITIOUS BUT POISONOUS

Dear friends You have mountains to climb You have missions to accomplish Shining brighter is your bulb Don't give your strength to that which perish Never fall for alluring hips You have land and nation to conquer Waste not your time conquering hips As a result, many lives have been shattered Your friends might have told you it's love Maybe not the one from above What you desire is that which you have seen The contour, the butt, curves, and the breasts Love that robs you of value Hear this my humble truth This is lust after her many assets I can see that big butts, breasts et al are all set Before you climb this mountain Why not ask if the time is riped Because it's like an African akee Nutritious but poisonous if it's not *Footnote The right timing is very important whatever we are doing. Before you take any action be patient enough ask yourself if the timing is right or not. ©OdunayoSam.
