A COLD WAR
I entered a keke, and a woman and her 7 year old son were sitting beside me in the keke. It was raining and all the twilight girls (prost!tutes) were standing by the roadside.

The boy asked; “Mummy, what are all those women doing?

His Mother replied; “They are waiting for their husbands to come back from work."

The keke driver turned around and said;
“Why don’t you tell him the truth?.
Little boy, they are prostitutes, they sleep with men for money. Said the keke driver”

The boy’s eyes got wide and asked; “Mummy
is that true?”
His mother, glaring hard at the keke driver replied; “Yes.!!”
After a few minutes, the boy asked; “Mummy, what happens to the babies those women have?"

She replied; “Most of them become keke
drivers.🙆🏽‍♂🙆🏽‍♂🙆🏽‍♂

Up till now, combined road safety officers and passengers are still trying hard to see if they can separate the f!ght between the woman and the driver.

Me, I quickly used the opportunity to come down and leave without paying

Once upon a time, the Lion became hungry and he said to the fox: '𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗺𝗲 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗲𝗮𝘁, 𝗼𝗿 𝗜 𝘄𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗲𝗮𝘁 𝘆𝗼𝘂.'

The fox went to a donkey and said: '𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗸𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗲.'

When the Lion saw the donkey, it attacked her, cutting off its ears, but the donkey managed to escape. The donkey said to the fox: '𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗰𝗸𝗲𝗱 𝗺𝗲! 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗿𝗶𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗺𝗲!'

The fox said: '𝗗𝗼𝗻'𝘁 𝗯𝗲 𝘀𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘆! 𝗛𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀, 𝘁𝗼 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗰𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗿𝗼𝘄𝗻 𝗼𝗻 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗱! 𝗟𝗲𝘁'𝘀 𝗴𝗼 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸.'

It made sense to the donkey, so it went back.

The Lion attacked the donkey again, this time cutting off its tail! The donkey escaped again, saying to the fox: '𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗹𝘆𝗶𝗻𝗴! 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝗟𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝗰𝘂𝘁 𝗼𝗳𝗳 𝗺𝘆 𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹!'

The fox said: '𝗛𝗲 𝗼𝗻𝗹𝘆 𝗿𝗲𝗺𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗱 𝘆𝗼𝘂𝗿 𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹 𝘀𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝗮𝗻 𝘀𝗶𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗺𝗳𝗼𝗿𝘁𝗮𝗯𝗹𝘆 𝗼𝗻 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗼𝗻𝗲! 𝗖𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗺𝗲.'

The fox convinced the donkey to return again.

This time, the Lion caught the donkey and killed it.

The Lion said to the fox: '𝗪𝗲𝗹𝗹 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗯𝗮𝗰𝗸 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗱𝗼𝗻𝗸𝗲𝘆. 𝗡𝗼𝘄, 𝗴𝗼, 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗻 𝗶𝘁 𝗳𝗼𝗿 𝗺𝗲 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗯𝗿𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗲 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀, 𝗹𝘂𝗻𝗴, 𝗹𝗶𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗵𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘁!'

The fox skinned the donkey, and ate the donkeys brain, but brought back its lung, liver and heart to the Lion. The Lion became angry and asked: '𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻?!'

The fox replied: '𝗜𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗻𝗼 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀, 𝗺𝘆 𝗸𝗶𝗻𝗴. 𝗜𝗳 𝗶𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝗱 𝗮𝗻𝘆 𝗯𝗿𝗮𝗶𝗻𝘀, 𝗶𝘁 𝘄𝗼𝘂𝗹𝗱 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗿𝗲𝘁𝘂𝗿𝗻𝗲𝗱 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗳𝘁𝗲𝗿 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗰𝘂𝘁 𝗶𝘁𝘀 𝗲𝗮𝗿𝘀 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝘁𝗮𝗶𝗹.'

The Lion said: '𝗧𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆 𝘁𝗿𝘂𝗲.'

Moral of the the story:

Don’t be like the donkey .

This is how the foxes keep convincing the donkeys in Nigeria at every election since 1999.

They keep voting and trusting those whose agenda is to destroy the Nation.

*If we don't give ourselves a brain in 2027, we will end up like the Donkey* copied

My son Andrew will never get married. He won’t have children. He won’t drive a car or experience many of the milestones we take for granted.

But he is happy. And he is healthy.
And to me, that’s everything.

When a stranger gives him a smile, it lights up my entire day.
When a girl glances at him kindly, joy rushes through his whole body like a wave of sunshine.

It doesn’t take much to be deeply, profoundly human.

Let me tell you a story.

At a party held at a school for children with special needs, one father stood up to speak.
What he said stayed with everyone who heard it.

After thanking the staff who worked with such devotion, he paused and shared a reflection:

“When nothing disturbs the balance of nature, the natural order reveals itself in perfect harmony.”

Then his voice began to tremble.

“But my son Herbert doesn’t learn like other children. He doesn’t understand like they do.
So tell me… where is the natural order in his life?”

The room fell completely silent.

Then he continued:

“I believe that when a child like Herbert is born—with a physical or cognitive disability—the world is given a rare and sacred opportunity:
To reveal the very core of the human spirit.
And that spirit is revealed not through perfection—but in how we treat those who need us most.”

He shared a moment he would never forget:

One afternoon, he and Herbert were walking past a field where some boys were playing soccer.
Herbert looked longingly at them and asked:

“Dad… do you think they’ll let me play?”

The father’s heart sank. He knew the answer was likely no.
But he also knew—if they said yes—it could give his son something far more valuable than a goal: a sense of belonging.

So he gently approached one of the boys and asked:

“Would it be okay if Herbert joined the game?”

The boy looked over at his teammates, hesitated, then smiled:

“We’re losing 3–0 and there’s ten minutes left… Sure. Let him take a penalty.”

Herbert lit up.
He ran to the bench, put on a jersey that nearly swallowed him whole, and beamed with pride. His father stood at the sidelines, tears in his eyes.

He didn’t play much. He just stood nearby, watching. But something in the boys shifted.
They began to see him—not as a distraction, but as one of them.

And then, in the final minute, a miracle happened.
Herbert’s team was awarded a penalty kick.

The same boy turned to the father and gave a knowing nod:

“It’s his shot.”

Herbert walked slowly to the ball, nervous but radiant.

The goalkeeper caught on. He made a show of diving to the side, giving the boy a clear shot.
Herbert nudged the ball gently forward.
It rolled across the goal line.

Goal.

The boys erupted in cheers. They hoisted Herbert into the air like he’d won the World Cup.
They didn’t just let him play.
They let him belong.

The father closed his speech with tears falling freely:

“That day, a group of boys made a decision… not to win, but to be human.
To show the world what kindness, dignity, and love really look like.”

Herbert passed away that winter.
He never saw another summer.
But he never forgot the day he was a hero.

And his father never forgot the night he came home, telling the story as his wife held Herbert close, weeping—not from sorrow, but from joy.

A final thought:

Every day, we scroll past distractions—memes, jokes, quick laughs.
But when something truly meaningful crosses our path, we hesitate.

We wonder: Who would understand this?
Who should I send this to?

If someone sent you this story, it’s because they believe you’re one of those people.
That you see the heart in others.
That you understand what really matters.

Because each day, the world gives us countless chances to choose decency over indifference.

As one wise man said:

“A society is judged by how it treats its most vulnerable.”

It is better to stay alone than to stay with people who called your real friend and they can still betray you

This story spoilt my m00d entirely when I heard it.

My mum will always tell me, “your enemy can’t k!ll you, only your friends can”.

He will always tell me, “someone who doesn’t know you cannot k!!! you, only someone thatt knows you will.”

This is a sâd story of Mmachi.

She went out for party with her female friends.

They were all drinking.

She was pressed.

Then she excused herself so she could urinate.

She left her drink on the table.

The friends planned and poi$oned her drink.

She came back, with her innocent mind and pure heart.

She continued sipping the drink.

So sâd.

To cut the long story short.

From party to hospital to the grâve.

The same cloth she went to party with was the same cloth she went to the hospital with and she k!cked the bucket.

SO, THE CONSPIRACY THEORISTS ARE RIGHT?

Is it Ado Aleiro, the Bandit kingpin, or his errand that walked into Federal Passport Office in Gusau to take a biometrics, provided National Identification Number in order to obtain International Travel Documents for his Mother and Wife? Same person preceeded to the Bank to make payments of Hajj fare, attend extra mural lectures on how to perform Hajj organized by Zamfara State Pilgrims Welfare Board, convey them to Airport Hajj Camps for screening and from there they are good to go after a thorough examination.

All these while, neither the Passport Office nor the Bank, the DSS, Police, NSCDC, NDLEA, FAAN staff, NAHCO Officials noticed them, let alone arrest them as they jet out of the Country for Hajj!

Now that they are arrested in Madina, Saudi Arabia, the Conspiracy Theorists are proved right that someone somewhere is aware of the insecurity happening in Northern Nigeria.

POLITICS AND INTERESTS

Have you seen the video of Atiku having breakfast in Aregbesola's house?

While he was in his living room, the drummers were beating "2027, Tinubu o lule ni". Wow! Inside Aregbesola's house!!!

If anyone had earlier told me that a day would come when the sitting room of Aregbesola will be boardroom for plans against Tinubu, I will say no, it's impossible.

In the same vein, if anyone had earlier told me that Wike would be Tinubu's man Friday (right-hand man), I will say it can never be possible.

My people, here we are today. Everything is happening. It's been long that I came to realise that politics is not worth being obsessed about.

Where interests align, archenemies become bosom friends and staunch allies. That's politics for you. Let's just be careful.

🙆🏻‍♀️ During a *mathematics course* at Columbia University , a student fell asleep and woke up to the sound of his classmates talking . As the lesson ended, he noticed the lecturer had written two ✌🏻 problems on the whiteboard. He assumed these were homework assignments, so he copied them into his notepad to tackle later.

💁🏻‍♀️ When he first attempted the problems, he found them quite difficult. However, he persevered 🙇🏻, spending hours in the library gathering references and studying until he was able to solve one of the problems, though it was challenging.

To his surprise , the lecturer 👨🏻‍🏫 didn’t ask about the homework in the next class. Curious , the student stood up and asked, *"Doctor, why didn’t you ask about the assignment from the previous lecture?"*

The lecturer 👨🏻‍🏫 replied, *"Required? It wasn’t mandatory. I was simply presenting examples of mathematical problems that science and scientists 👨🏻‍🔬👩🏻‍🔬 had not yet solved."*

Shocked , the student responded, *"But I solved one of them in four papers!"* The solution he discovered was eventually credited to him and documented at *Columbia University *. The four papers he wrote ✍🏻 on the issue are still on display at the institution.

The key reason the student 🧑🏻‍🎓 was able to solve the problem was that he didn’t hear the lecturer 👨🏻‍🏫 say, *"No one has found a solution."* Instead, he believed it was a problem worth solving and approached it without frustration, ultimately succeeding.

🙋🏻‍♀️ *This story serves as a reminder:* Don't listen to those who tell you that you can't achieve something, as many young people today are surrounded by negativity and doubt. Some people intentionally plant seeds of failure and frustration .

You have the power to achieve your goals , overcome obstacles, and fulfill your aspirations . Simply trust in God and keep trying.

The student 🧑🏻‍🎓 was *George Dantzig*, and the problem came from *Math Stack Exchange*.

"*Dantzig* demonstrated that, in the context of Student's t-test, the only way to create a hypothesis test whose power is independent of the standard deviation is to use an absurd test that always has an equal probability of rejecting or failing to reject, which, of course, is not practical."

A friend who couldn't graduate in LAUTECH because of 100L Biology Practical wrote this, and I hope it will teach us a lesson.

"How I Made A Perfect Payback For Lecturer Who Failed Me For 6 Years In The University"

My first day in the biology laboratory was a dreadful one. During a briefing session a day before we were to have practical during my 100level, We had been told that it is a customary to always put on the ‘laboratory coat’ each and every time we have practicals, hence whosoever without the laboratory coat will be punished.

I’d no money as at that time to buy laboratory coat, and the first practical came just too soon. I couldn’t borrow as my only friend in the school then was Asiwaju Olalekan Godson Ayodeji.

Anyway, I knew breaking the rule of not putting a ‘laboratory coat’ was a bad idea but I was young and wrong to take that risk. I had no choice than to enter into the laboratory room to get engaged with my fellow departmental mates.

Not quite long after I entered the lab, one of the biology lecturer who handled biology practical came around. He spotted few of us without the ‘laboratory coat’ and decided to play a fast track on us, he wanted to get hold of us. I was fortunate to be sitting near the entrance door, so I got away.

He was able to lay hands on few guys unaware but everyone of us that escaped went into his black book. He called our class rep then, and collected our matric numbers. Printed them and pasted them in his office. It was printed boldly.

That was how myself and other guys that ran away failed Both the practical and the actual Biology course that year.

Personally, I sat for the same courses for good 6years; making it 6 different times entirely. On my third year of rewriting, I summoned courage to visit him in his office. I went to see him to plead with him, he didn’t know me, he only knew of my matric number.

So I’d to take the bull by the horn to explain what had happened. He laughed wickedly and angrily sent me away, I returned the next day.

He told me, if I return again then it would be very bad and I won’t like it. I left him for a week. I consulted my advisor, Dr. Mrs Adigun. I explained everything to her…

She told me, I should give him time, and to return to him after sometime. That he may consider my ‘show of repentance’. So I didn’t return for like a month.

Then one day, I was returning from a friend’s place Osisami Babalola Enitan on Friday after I had gone to play chess, I saw him also returning from the mosque. We both met along the school former fine-art department, just by the way that leads to Alata eatery, Under G.

I quickly used the opportunity of meeting him just coming from the mosque to plead yet again. He treated me like ‘poo’

He still went on to fail me even in my 400level. On my final year, I went to him, then I was married. I took my pregnant wife to plead with him. He walked us out and told us never to come again. He promised to report to the school security. So we left.

He failed me for 5 years consecutively. It was hard for me. I wept for days. I told my parents, and few friends.. It prevented me from going for NYSC with my class 13′ set.

Then I turned to God. Yes, I was guilty and I deserved punishment but that was too much. I prayed ‘no be small’. So many different phases of life, most times it is always our fault that we find ourselves in difficult situations but immediately we get to seek God for help, he surely always provide us a solution to all of our problems. I seek God’s face and he never fails.

That biology course was taken away from him and was given to someone else, it was given to another Dr. I can never forget him.

I registered as a spill-over student, and sat for it, I borrowed 4 other courses to boost my CGPA, I collected my result and my biology 101, 102,104 and 106 were all A(s).

That was how I got cleared.

Moving forward, During my service year, after I redeployed from Abia state to Oyo, I was posted to the West Africa examination council. (Waec) Ijokodo, Ibadan.

Great place with wonderful people. On my great work ethics, being dutiful and so diligent during my service year, I was given the green card and permitted at all time to work during their examination and marking exercise each and every time I so wish. Oluwafemi Martins my great boss, one of the great people I had worked with.

Coincidentally, I was officially sent to Ogbomoso marking venue as an assistant subject examination officer to partner my Waec daddy

I was handling Biology and chemistry subjects. For the ones who don’t understand the whole drama during the Waec marking exercise.

We give out the examination scripts to qualified teachers or graduates with the certification in their specified subjects for marking and recording during a stipulated period of 21/23

So that day in April, there was a long queue of Examiners waiting to submit their CV. Then this Dr. lecturer that failed me for 5years was on the queue too, I’d spotted him.

My wonderful Waec daddy was beside me, he asked while I was smiling, I simply told him that something funny will soon happen, and when it was this Dr’s turn, He greeted and called me “sir” (bending his head). I quickly stood up to greet him too.

But I was so surprised, he didn’t recognize my face. Apparently, he would never have thought and believe and to be possible for the young man in front of him to be me.

So I pretended as if I had nothing in mind too, I was going through his CV when he started pleading that he really needed my help concerning this marking stuff, he told me he came along with his daughter who is a gate crasher ( these are people who are new to the marking system) and his wife who also had marked for a long time but needed to mark too.

He told me Ladoke Akintola university of technology had been on strike for over a year and nothing seemed fine, no salary. No money and nothing at all. I should help him.

At that point I told him to call his wife and daughter. He did. I then asked him; “Sir, Is it truly that you do not recognize my face?”

He said, “ehn! It’s like this face is familiar o but you know there are many people like that I can’t remember. I can’t really remember where and when I had seen your face”. I told him to try, that I will only help him if he can remember where we had met and when..

He didn’t remember so I helped him out with my surname, I told him. “This is Akeju, the guy you failed for consecutive 5 years. The guy that brought his pregnant wife to beg you but still, you sent us away”.

At that point, he was dumbfounded. He left without saying a word. His wife and daughter were confused and everyone on the queue too. His wife asked what the matter was, I told her to go and ask her husband.

Shortly, His wife and daughter returned. He had explained everything, they knelt down and asked for forgiveness. I smiled and asked them to tell him to come back. He had gone home. In the evening he did return.

He asked for forgiveness, and I did forgave him. More than he had asked for, I granted him all of his requests. We were not permitted to give more than a packet packed of scripts but I gave him more than one. Just for him to make more money. He wept uncontrollably.
“ Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you”. I only know of the way of doing good even unto them that do me evil.

Till I left ogbomoso, he was always calling because I had put enough food on his table and not only him, but also for his family during that difficult period they were going through. It’s left to him, if he will change or not. Our tomorrow isn’t promised. Whatever position you find yourself, use it wisely.

Hope Someone Learnt From This.
