I was particularly excited this morning to find out on Twitter that Mauritania is now 100% free from the novel Corona Virus also known as COVID-19, or for the sake of political correctness “The Chinese Virus”. I hope you didn’t misread that has “Marijuana”? It’s Mau-Ri-Ta-Nia, a whole country in sub-saharan Africa with an estimated population of 4,649,658 as at today according to UN data, so this...
In an average democratic clime or semblance of it, the election year is always a very interesting year. After the government might have gone to sleep six months after the previous election is won and the juicy offices and portfolio are shared, all parties are usually united in corruption, shaking hands and sharing the commonwealth of the people without rancour, leaving just the few that feeds on...
I was involved in a near fatal accident in January 2017. I was rushed to Gbagada General Hospital and was rejected without any form of medical assessment because there was no bed or something, I was told I was conscious but I can’t remember A THING. The same thing happened at Lagos University Teaching Hospital (LUTH) until my bosom friend arrived and must have created a scene before a young...
I know a little bit about everything and that’s the problem with me. Whenever there is a conversation, I always jump out of the blues with my factual perspective, I submit assertions and arrive at conclusions without even listening enough or sampling other perspectives and experiences because as far as I am concerned, I already know what they know, maybe a little bit but it is good enough. This...
From the markings made by the cavemen, to the scrolls in the Vatican library, the Egyptian hieroglyphs to the braille for the blind, writing in all its forms has been the sure pathway to immortality from the day it was invented, way before Moses downloaded the Ten Commandments from the cloud with the Table of Stone or Tab as it will called today, to the very next key I will strike in my attempt...
The Business of God Have you ever read the KBV Bible before? Well if your answer is NO! Today is our lucky day. You’re not lucky just because you are reading a very local version, it is more because you are about to read, see and experience the true perspective of the gospel of Christ as against what your pastors and teachers have taught instead of what the bible and Christ really preached...
I somehow made it to the Forte Oil Gas Station in UNILAG to make my intentions known to the management with respect to being shortchanged yesterday when I bought petrol at the station. A queue was still in place but since I had no intention to buy fuel this time, I drove in and parked at a very distinct spot so no one will think I’m trying to jump the queue. I walked up to the office like...
God Does Not Reward Giving – King Babaolowo’s Version (KGV) I sometimes read the Bible just for the beauty of it (Not because I go to church). It is one of the many books that inspires and teaches me about the right path through life (especially from Matthew up), and I read it devoid of the religious clout around it. It is a history book, not some sacred text because the life and time...
