What Samuel Etoo said in 2005

I was at the fueling station earlier today. While on the queue, the Napep man beside me also on queue to the same pump was on call with his wife.

His phone had rang twice before he eventually picked. His wife mentioned that he didn’t drop any money for the children to eat, and in response, he said reminded her that he already told her he wanted to use the money left with him to buy fuel into his Keke so that he can work and send money. The call was audible as it was on speaker.

The worried wife kept mentioning that the children were already crying. But he kept telling his wife that he would send money immediately he works.

After the call, he was speaking with himself and talking how people weren’t going out as the normal days. With his eyes fixed at a particular spot of the keke.

I was so bothered for him, his wife and the hungry children.

When we got to the pump, the attendant could either sell to me or him as we were beside each other due to the position of our fuel tanks.

And he told the pump attendant to sell for me. I immediately told the attendant to sell for him.

“Oya, sell One thousand two hundred own”

While he stretched his hand to give the attendant the money.

Then I said young lady, Pls fill the tank of his keke”

He looked at me like, No, she shouldn’t as he doesn’t have that money to pay.

I told him not to worry, and that I will pay.

And he said, since I started driving this keke, I have never bought full tank.

With tears on his eyes, he went down and I carried him up.

After I bought mine and as I was driving out of the staton, I didn’t know he was waiting for me just outside the gate.

When I saw him, I stopped he couldn’t stop thanking me.

I simply told him, I overheard the call with his wife wish caught my emotions.

My parents taught me how to be kind to people. My dad would say, a help you render today is coming for you tomorrow.

One thousand two hundred can not feed husband and wife, let alone with the children.

I requested for his account details and sent him money. I equally asked him to call his wife and I spoke with her. When she sent her details, I sent her money to buy some food stuffs.

He was literally in tears as I drove off, and I prayed for them that God eases their affairs.

And the one reason why I share this— If life is kind to you, Pls extend it and be kind to people.

*The Myth About Soulmates!*


Many people erroneously believe that there's ONE person out there who is their soulmate, someone God had predestined for them to marry, and until they find that ONE person, they will never enjoy true love.

Some people call it "missing rib," someone that was divinely created for them alone.

But that is not true!

There is no ONE person in the entire universe that is your soulmate or missing rib.

You can choose your soulmate.

You can choose who to fall in love with, and eventually marry.

If I didn't marry my wife, there are more than 1 million women I could still marry, and the marriage will work, and if she didn't marry me, there are many other men she could have married.

But I chose her, and she chose me.
And we both became each other's soulmates!

Yes, God helped us to make the choice, because of his plan and purpose for our lives.

If you believe there's ONE person in the world that is your soulmate, what if that person dies, even before you meet him/her?
Will you remain single for life?

Some people are still single today, because they are waiting for a magical soulmate, and they have missed an opportunity with many amazing men and women.

If you're a believer, the instruction is to never marry an unbeliever or a believer who isn't focused on serving God and pursuing the plan and purpose of God.

Sister Adetola, brother Timothy is not your soulmate, if he doesn't marry you, another brother can marry you.
Stop being frustrated because someone you love isn't interested in marrying you.

Open up your heart, and you will find love in places you least expect.

And when you meet that man or woman that truly deserves you, you can make them your SOULMATE!

I hope this helps!

An eagle once taught a woman how to raise a child.

— Are you alright, human mother? — the eagle asked.

The woman looked at her, startled.

— I’m afraid. My baby is about to be born, and I have so many doubts. I want to give them the best, a beautiful, easy life… but how will I know if I’m raising them right?

The eagle perched nearby and replied:

— Raising a child isn’t about keeping them comfortable. It’s the opposite. When my eaglets are born, I line the nest with soft feathers and grass. It’s warm, safe. But when the time comes for them to grow, I remove it all. I leave only the thorns.

The woman frowned.

— Thorns? Isn’t that cruel?

The eagle looked her in the eyes.

— Discomfort pushes them to move. The thorns make them want more — to fly, to find their place. Comfort teaches nothing.

The woman hesitated, still uncertain.

— And if they fall?

The eagle nodded.

— They do fall. I throw them into the wind. They drop. I catch them. I throw them again. Over and over — until they learn to fly. And then? I let them go. I don’t help anymore.

The woman’s eyes widened.

— But what if they’re not ready?

— They won’t be, until they try. If I keep them safe forever, they’ll never learn. It’s not about letting them suffer. It’s about letting them grow. Even when it hurts you.

The woman placed her hand on her belly, breathed deeply, and smiled.

— Thank you, Mother Eagle, she whispered. Your wisdom is a gift.

She walked away — ready to be the mother her child would need: not perfect, but strong. A mother who teaches them to fly.

If you want your child to soar high — don’t clip their wings with comfort.
Let them feel the wind.
Let them stumble.
Let them rise.

True love isn’t sheltering them from life.
It’s teaching them how to live it.
Even if that means watching them fall… so they can learn to fly.

HANDSOME DRIVER ACCIDENTALLY SLEPT OFF IN BILLIONAIRE'S DAUGHTER'S ROOM

Liam had just landed a dream job as a private driver for the ultra-wealthy Carrington family. Known for his charm and dashing looks, Liam kept a low profile, focusing solely on his job. One night, after a grueling back andforth drive to and from a late evening gala, exhaustion overcame him. He arrived at the mansion, parked the car, and went in to ask for a glass of water from one of the housemates before retiring to the staff quarters.
The entire mansion was unusually quiet. The maids were nowhere to be found, probably off duty or resting. Liam, confused and dizzy from the long day, walked through a hallway, searching for a spare room to nap in. The door to a guest room was slightly a jar. Thinking it was empty, he slipped in and collapsed on the bed, completely unaware it was the room of the billionaire's only daughter, Arya Carrington.
Arya had stepped into the adjoining bathroom after her bath when she saw Liam's shoes outside the bed. Peeking through the bathroom door, her heart raced. There was a man in her bed. Instinctively, she grabbed a hairbrush as a weapon and crept closer. But when she recognized the face, her brows knitted.
What was their driver doing in her bed? Instead of screaming, Arya did something unexpected. She stood there watching him. His chest rose and fell so peacefully, and there was something unusually innocent about his face as he slept. Her initial anger softened into curiosity. Arya had always found Liam attractive, but seeing him there completely vulnerable stirred something new in her.
She left him there and curled up on the Sha's lounge, deciding to deal with him in the morning. But her sleep didn't come easy. Every sound he made kept her awake. Morning broke, sunlight flooding through the windows. Liam stirred, confused, and sat up slowly. His eyes widened in horror when he saw Arya seated across the room, arms folded, glaring at him.
"What on earth are you doing in my room?" she asked coldly. Liam stammered, trying to piece his words together, but she stood up, raised a brow, and said, "Relax. You're lucky I didn't scream and get you fired." Her tone held a strange mixture of anger and intrigue. Liam quickly apologized and fled the room, heart pounding.
But neither of them knew that night had changed everything. Word hadn't gotten out about the incident, thanks to Aria's silence, but she couldn't stop thinking about it. She began watching Liam from her bedroom window as he cleaned the car or opened doors for guests. There was something about his politeness, the way he smiled at the staff and remained unaffected by the luxury surrounding him.
Liam, on the other hand, kept a safe distance. Embarrassed, he avoided eye contact with Arya at all costs. But one afternoon, while driving her to a shopping complex, she suddenly said, "You snore when you sleep." He almost hit the brakes from shock. She giggled for the first time in front of him, and that moment shattered the wall between them.

Islamic Religious Extremists In Ogun State, Yoruba Land, Stabs An Igbo Lady To Death

Today, we received the report of an Igbo woman identified as Mrs Blessing Eze who was stabbed to death by some Islamic religious extremists in Ogun State. The Extremists  goes about collecting unlawful levies from traders for the June 6th Eid Mubarak prayers. It was gathered that the Islamic Extremists had Unlawfully taxed the Info market traders  the sum of 1,500.00 Naira per shop for the Eid Mubarak prayers on June 6.  When they stormed the market in  collection of the money, it was in the morning and Mrs Blessing Eze told them that it is still morning and that she had not sold anything for the day. She told them to go and come back later but they refused and then began to destroy her goods. She then firmly buckled one and demanded that they pay for her goods they have destroyed. That was when they stabbed her. One of the Islamic Extremists collecting the unlawful levy quickly brought out a knife and stabbed the woman in the chest right in her shop, and she died.
For clarity sake, these extremists are Muslims but their act is criminally. That is why we called them extremists because we don't want to believe that they were sent from the mosque to go and extort or to go and kill people in the market,  unless otherwise.

Extortion is a crime and no crime  bypasses the punishment of the laws. When has Muslims started taxing people for Eid Mubarak prayers? And, why should people compulsorily pay you for your own prayers?  Giving is by willingness, you don't force people to give to you. We believe that no true Islamic leader will send his people to go and force 1,500.00 Naira out of traders and to kill any trader who refuses to pay.
Mrs Blessing Eze did not refuse to pay, rather she told them to go and come back later that the time was still early for her to raise such an amount of money. But they refused and then killed her. This is how crimes are committed in Nigeria but the most painful thing is that when it is committed by Muslims against an Igbo person or against a Christian, justice will be denied.

If there would be no justice for this woman, then we might be left with the option to believe what people have been parading about that "Islam is a religion of violence". People have been saying this but we just don't want to believe it because inasmuch as we know that some Islamic worshipers are evil, there are many good ones in there who are not violent and this also extends to every other religions.

Fingers crossed, but the case of this woman will never be swept under the carpet just like that. We are demanding justice for her and, every Islamic person who believes that Islam is not a religion of "violence" must stand up for this woman's justice. All those involved in her death must be arrested and made to pay for the crime they committed. Of course, no payment will bring back the dead, but they must pay for it. It must not go like the case of Deborah Samuel.
