THE UNQUESTIONABLE


"In the womb of the morning, we dare not ask

Just about dusk we have no answer

Should we ask or be patient for it to come

Unquestionable or unanswering?"

***


 Answers linger without end even when we try asking. The government is not concerned about the state of our roads and our standard of living. Land Utility Charges  is more important than making life easy for their people. 

A leader, good or bad, addresses his people from time to time to keep them abreast but why has this become Olympic?


And when we finally mounted the stage to state our case and ask for the way forward, going back to farm was the best that struck us. 

Yes sir!

We are going back to the farm where nothing is interesting. A factory where all we are provided is a piece of cutlass and hoe. Oh, I meant a place where rag is uniform and comes handy with a pair of flip-flops or luckily a pair of wellingtons. Do the "developed" nations practice agriculture this way? Even a man with mental health challenge would prefer to stay in a room with air conditioner to staying under the sun, or don't you think soilless farming is good for us too?


 Sure! We are going back to farm, a business supported by our government with loans and grants readily available in volumes of books and takes eternity to become pocket-evident.

Shall we not go back to farm?

Yes, we should go farm and be abducted and assaulted at the expense of our family and friends who have enough to pay ransom. Kai ! I laugh... even after over a dozen months of NIN-SIM CARD flu, security issues still thrive like masquerade trees. Is something not wrong somewhere? Is somebody not keeping something from some people?


No mortal is unquestionable, they are just unanswering. Nothing should stop us from asking continuously till our land becomes green. Every path needs do its part of making a progressive movement possible. And I will not shut my hood till something better finds its way into this nation.


...and for a better living, I will keep speaking up and preaching it that we do what is right !

LIMPING OLYMPIAN

  REPORIENTATION   LIMPING OLYMPIAN Law wears no crown but rules over the king. This can only be true outside the land of "Jogbo." Jogbo, our dearest Jogbo where our rulers and their teams make the law  of the land a footstool. Their maids doctor the law like roadside mechanics just to afford their lords a handshake with favour. They make no law in favour of the king's subjects. Of a truth, they sleep in luxury the subjects cannot afford; what they cannot get, they employ a long harvesting knife. Do they care if the followers can't even afford the usury? Recklessness has forgotten his tooth deep in their flesh.  The King of Jogbo, his "baales" and his chiefs are competing with cars and houses when the subjects keep struggling to afford a meal per day. They wine and dine morning, afternoon and evening; every day is meant for celebrations even when the citizens mourn. The cries of the citizens mean nothing greater than the sound of a swarm of bees. In Jogbo, c

  REPORIENTATION   LIVE “ The more you live, the more you know, the more you love, the more you learn that life is not just about being alive but more importantly about living” D.M. Adewusi. We all know the economic situation of the country is not as palatable as expected, nevertheless, we all strive hard to see through each passing day. The question now is do we do this alone or do we all have it at the back of our minds that there are other people's success and achievements that is tied to ours? Until we all come to the understanding that we live for a purpose and there are other people tied to that purpose, we tend to be alive and not living.  It is, therefore, necessary for us all to start living and not just be alive, fulfill our purpose on earth, and achieve that target or goal if not for our sake but for the sake of those that are tied to our success and achievement. Stand, rise, and pick up from where you fell. If you fall 100 times, rise 100 times for behind every success

SEMBLANCE

  REPORIENTATION SEMBLANCE Why wear the coats of a servant when you know the shoes of a king is what suits you?  We appear to kneel but our hearts sits like a queen. Our voices say good morning but our faces have a firm grip on rods,  beating breath out of man on a bad morning.  We are the exact opposite of our barks.  A man who owes tax but killed a fat goat for festivity has done more harm than good. He may be crowned a saviour for providing what the mouth enjoys for the few he knows but should also be stoned for depriving the hundreds he knows not, some social amenities. Why we do what we do matters just as what we do.  We can't hide our shadows but it is not something to worry about when our location is right. Our deeds follow us whithersoever we go and we should always be mindful of why we do what we do because it is directly proportional to our actions and it is a constant in the consequences of our actions. So, dwell in your disappoinment and sketch a better way out.  ... an
