BOY WHO SUFFERED A MAJOR EYE INJURY GETS HELP

It’s almost three months now since I shared his story with you all. And the past three months has recorded an enormous recovery for Chibuike. Remember the kid who had a distressing eye condition which resulted from particles of bottles which splashed into his eyes while he was running an errand, yeah that’s him!  click here to read So after removal of the bottles particles in Chibuike’s left eye, doctors reported that the injury left a major scar which may not permit it to function as the right eye. At first, one of the doctors opined that the injured left eye would have to be removed, so that the uninjured right eye does not end up sympathizing with it, resulting in a damage of both eyes, but after a major SCAN and further consultations, Dr. said removal will not be necessary. Chibuke during one of his appointments with the doctor So we were recommended to buy a series of prescribed drugs, and a combination of various eye drops back to back which were ad...

ONE BIG FAMILY...BEFORE greets AFTER

By -

#ONE_BIG_FAMILY It’s been over two months since their story shook the internet. A family of five that was known for their bizarre lifestyle and affliction. Ben, his wife and three kids for over seven years roamed the hinterlands of Bekwarra-Ogoja, Cross River State in search of nothing in particular. Adorned in their customary rags and spotting dreadlocks, which is typical of insane people in Nigeria, they found a home sleeping in open fields and in the cold. Two months after

Dig Where You Stand!

I know of a man who said he doesn’t want to have any children because the world is already overpopulated and he doesn’t want to add to the world’s population. He is 50+ and single, and this is the reason he lives the way he does.  There’s this woman in his neighborhood who’s got 8 children. He makes reference to her everytime, and says he’s so pissed to see that just one person has so many children; he gets so vexed that according to him, the woman should be arrested! 🤣 Lol... At first this seemed really ludicrous to me, but come to think of it, isn’t it interesting to see how people take small individual steps to making change in the world? We too can do the same, we don’t necessarily have to choose to not bear children, but in many other ways, like: -  lending a hand,  - contributing towards development work,  - trashing the rubbish in the bin instead of dropping it on the floor,  - engaging in community development, etc,  we too can make choices that co...

VOLUNTEERING

By -
Image
I want to stress the need for volunteering. Volunteering means offering your skills, time, and resource to the benefit of other organizations or to someone else, without having an interest in being paid. I know that the term volunteering may sound synonymous with “ OSHOFREE ” for some people, especially Nigerians. It’s not your fault. For an economy where people struggle for survival, people will definitely eschew anything that doesn’t put money on their table. But regardless, the importance of volunteering cannot be overemphasized.  Volunteering gives you the opportunity to render service, and at the same time develop your skills. Sometimes our problem is that we focus too much on our stomachs and on immediate satisfaction that we lose out on many other opportunities for growth.   Yes, “man must survive” but there are so many other factors that can contribute to man’s survival, and some of them include: recommendations, improving your cv, building relationships, having goodw...

TASK FORCE!

By -
Image
I thought police men were the most mean people in Nigeria until I witnessed the one they call “TASK FORCE”. They move around in trucks, most times with no uniform but casual wears like every other person. I dunno what really is their job description, but on several occasions I’ve seen them destroy traders goods or otherwise forcefully seize them, no matter the amount of begging from the owner of the goods.  One an occasion, one of these churlish nitwits overturned the basin of Garri of an old woman in the market. He poured the whole contents of Garri on the ground and threw the empty basin into the nearby gutter (drainage). Even as he grabbed the basin of Garri, she held on to his trousers and was begging him to let her have it back,  but as cold hearted as he was, this guy refused; as soon as he threw it away he started walking away, while the other traders scurried off to hide their goods.  The old woman threw herself on the ground so hard, rol...

Oga stop me here o!

By -

  Location: Brighton      I recall one of my first times boarding a commercial bus in London. Usually, if you intend to alight at a certain bus stop, you’re expected to press the bell before the driver approaches the bus stop. So on this occasion, I got to where I was gonna alight, and of course, I wasn’t used to "pressing the bell" before hand, so as the driver approached my street I tried to alert him by   saying “I’m stopping here o”, but he didn’t listen.       Before I said jack, he had zoomed passed my street, then I started screaming “ Oga stop me here o ”... (Pidgin English). Location: London      For where! The driver didn’t even turn towards my direction even though I was standing right beside him in the bus. Everyone in the bus was giving me the ‘what’s-wrong-with-this-one’ look. 🙄      Then I remembered that I was in the UK. But before I would press the bell, driver had driven like five bus stops pas...

JUNE 12 - CHANGE THE CHANGE

  I’ve had conversations with many Nigerians in diaspora, and through these conversations, I realized that a large percentage of them really have the desire to be back in Nigeria, Including the ones who have already attained citizenship status in these various countries. They want to be back to a country where they are recognized and not discriminated against; A society where there’s community life, accessible local food, and a much easier life. They just want to be HOME, because there’s no place like it.  But they all have a request and a wish before they return. They’re not asking for much. From my conversation with them, I identified similar comments peculiar to them all, and that includes :  1. Security  2. Light 3. Good education  4. Sustainable and accessible healthcare  5. Motorable roads and more railway transport, Amongst others. The first two options in this list are the most commonly mentioned.  My dear Nigerians, is this too much to ask for...

The Lagos Gala Hawker That Gave Prisoners Free Gala Is Now A Retail Store Owner

By -

Few months ago, the internet was agog with the story of a gala hawker, who shared his gala freely to prisoners inside traffic, in a prison van. The warders never stopped him. He even went an extra mile by running profusely after the van, when the van started moving due to green light, with both of his hands full of gala, forcing the gala through the tiny finger openings, as the prisoners struggled to receive it. Excited motorists interviewed him on the spot, with much smile and happiness he said that he was just in a state of pity on their situation as human beings, gave them almost all the gala he was carrying, because they might be too hungry at that moment. The news went all over the social media. Several TV stations visited the traffic and interviewed him, on his exceptional act. Many Nigerians called on the federal govt for him be given a national merit award. Others physically went and met him in the same traffic, and blessed him buoyantly. Instantly on the next d...
