Creation: The scriptural narratives of how man was created (carved with mud and life was breath into him) is easily relatable because the human brain can relate the story to a sculptor who used the medium of mud to create a human sculptor and with the powers, he blew into it life and praaaa! a man is made. The stories are not the same for the woman. The popular one has it that she's made out of a man's rib. That requires some degree of faith to take in. A lot of people around our human world hold strongly to this angle. This has it's implications on how women are perceived by men. A tale too common and ugly to repeat. Reality; What is obvious to the eyes is that both men and women are unique in their physical attributes. These uniqueness are complimentary and not basis for judging superiority or inferiority. Our world is replete with evidences that prove that both men and women are capable of just about anything. The potential for good or bad could be found across the

You either have everything working for you or you've never gone out there to get anything done, else you won't marvel at why religion is huge business in Nigeria. Here everything depends on God. You want to make that urgent bank transfer? You pray for your bank to have "network", else.... You're rushing someone to the emergency of any hospital in Nigeria? You pray for the needed drugs, machines and personnel to be available, functioning, else... You are coming back from work, tired and need that weekend rest? You'll have to pray for NEPA, the traffic warden, your neighborhood church (or it will be in session blaring noise into your bedroom) and the Jumaat prayers of course, else the road might still be blocked by bowing folks. If you are not prayerful enough, the day you will need to make that life and death phone call will be the day all the network service providers will be "having challenges" and frustrate your already twisted hustle. Who do

December 11th, 2016 was the Worldwide Candle Lighting Day. Everywhere around the globe, at 7 PM local time people lit candles to remember their lost loved ones. The idea is to portray that even though people may have died and no longer exist in this world, their memories and legacies will endure. This brings the following questions to mind; What will you be remembered for when you are gone? Will your so-called loved ones even light a candle for No doubt, this world we live in is a very dangerous and wicked one. We have to always ensure that when we leave, we should not be remembered for how many people we could have helped but never did, how many hearts we have broken, how many eyes cried because of our actions and inaction or how many relationships we have severed. We should be remembered for the countless times we have helped people realized their true purpose and potentials in life. We should strive to impact our world positively so that when we leave, people will have a reaso

If we continue to live this way this generation of Nigerians will continue to leave everything to prayers and God. Our ancestors will take care of it or our God is always merciful he will take of it. No wonder we cannot hold our leaders accountable rather we leave them for God. I was shocked when I turned back to realize that the whole of the class I was teaching was rushing out of the classroom through all exits, at first I didn’t know what to think until “sorry corper, they didn’t had their prayers this morning” I turned to find the compound master behind me. I couldn’t utter a word as I was still trying to wrap my head around what just happened. How did we get here? What is our priority as a people? Quality education or Prayers? Why on earth would one chase students out of their classes where they are receiving lessons for prayers? Because prayers are more important than why we are here in the first place? This is what we have become-passive beings who doesn’t believe that the

“At every turn in history, iconic men and women; those exceptional people with unprecedented breadth of service to humanity, the icons whose trajectory stand them apart from the packs, appear like the comet to beautify our world. Great achievers and product of inspiration, such rare breeds of men and women do not appear from the abyss of frivolity, vainglory or wishful thinking. Inspiration and courage gave birth to them while patriotism and passion for hard work nurtured them into limelight and ingrained them in our hearts” Maj. Gen. Chris Olukolade. Ebira land and Nigeria by extension has been very fortunate to be blessed with such a thoroughbred. I talk of a woman and a mother to all. “Mummy” as she is fondly called by the staff of TaoFm where I have been working as a voluntary worker for sometimes now is truly a mother figure to all. As the General Manager of the organization, one would expect a boss who will merely boss people around the workplace as common with most people in

"What's in a name? That which we call a rose By any other name would smell as sweet."
