WHY

 WHY?



A man once told me, “Never be too comfortable in a place, because when you do, it brings destruction”.

Deep in thought on what's next in the line of action. A bit of flash here and there, going down history lane, I begin to wonder what manner of life it is.

276 Chibok school girls were kidnapped.

The presidential convoy was attacked for the first time in the history of the country.

Abuja – Kaduna Rail line bombing.

Lagos toll gate END SARS killing on October 20, 2020.

Insecurity in the North.

Sit at home in the East.

Corruption everywhere.

The health sector crashing with each passing day.

Tertiary institutions going on strike becoming a norm.

Labour’s complaints of low pay and the legislators’ huge salaries.

Unemployment on the increase.

The incessant value drop of the Naira.

My heart skips as the question drops “Why did these events occur in the first place?”, “What exactly went wrong?”, “Are we going to continue on this path?”, “When exactly are we going to get it right?”

We are all looking for who to blame and we often neglect to always ask WHY it all happened in the first place. Why are we so quick to move on after these things happen? 

Until we start asking the question why, learn from our errors, and try as much as possible not to repeat them, we might just be walking in a circle as a nation without a positive change. It is time to take responsibility for our actions, start thinking about the impact it has on others, and stop being self-centered. Till a lesson is learned, we will not grow as a nation.

…and for a better Nigeria, I will not have a hand in the non-progressive journey.

Faulty Rule: Healing the Process

  REPORIENTATION Faulty Rule: Healing the Process If the rule be faulty, what will the patriots do? Run to a safe haven or repair the rule? Day by day, the chaotic currents nip the life out of the people, causing a fearful disorder in others to swim out of the country hastily. Hmm, in my father's house, the rooms are becoming empty shells, because the occupants are being betrayed by the very structures put in place by the landlords. The question bothering me is that, if all the patriots fled, won't the beasts become the proper land owners and occupants? If so, what would be the fate of the building? In order to stop this invading danger, we must resist our fear to flee and not our voices, let all hands be united to combat this mean forces. We shall then be in the process of repairing the rule and healing the process. ...and for a better and secured Nigeria, we arise to unite, being faithful to rebuild again!

Today for you, tomorrow for me.

  REPORIENTATION   Today for you, tomorrow for me. As the world dances to the tune of the motion of time, not subjected to the forces of pauses and stops, it rolls into our path opportunities to be a channel of blessing to another. Today for you, tomorrow for me, this is a picture of sacrifice, a painting of selfless living. To live for others today is  your sustenance tomorrow. To sacrifice your time and resources today and help your fellow human without any desire of "immediate gratification" is an essential life quality. Once you refuse to help because the other person can't give immediate reward today, you increase your chances of being denied help tomorrow. Everyone has their own season of being ushered into limelight, be a catalyst in the process of their manifestation. You're trying to shine today, I'll help you harvest stars from the skies, who knows, tomorrow, I might need a light to illuminate my path. Time and tide wait for no one, but it will eventuall...

Fanning the Flame into Fire with a Mouthful of Salty Water

    How can I fan into fire, the saturating flame of hope before me? Can a mouth filled with water cause a glow or make a close? How can I save the world, the whole generations of man? Shall I hold the water in my gutter and still speak up my pains?   Who will find a sustainable solution to my dilemma? Shall I change the game and vote a change, saying NO to craze? Who will brighten our hope of a peaceful world? Will he also add some flavor of equity?   The golden rule will do Taking me on a journey; the journey into a “happy ever after” The beginnings of unending smiles and joy unspeakable I forgot the salinity of my pride and swallowed it up Making a run way for my organic bellow to perform its voluntary duty   Glowing hope is all my optical heart can courier; trailing the smoke of care Hope of a better living in an expensive world of love, I recognized Eureka! The song of discovery I could not jettison but ampli...
