Superhero

"If I was to have a super power, which would I have I love? I would have want to possess a supernatural power that can see, predict and counter some things from happening" .... I remember this are questions we ask ourselves as kids years ago. Sigh Although then, it was just an intuition of our minds and  also a reaction from the superheroes characters of the animations and cartoons we view... Our innocent s minds were fed, our strength were stretch and an overwhelming satisfaction of our quest was settled as we pick and represent this characters in our daily play. Hmm... Little did we know then but we always acts these scene full and length. Life is stages, as we grow, and our understanding widen, and as we feed daily on the taste and experience of life, we began to understand that life is more than just wishes, feelings and sighing. We begin to wish more that, most of what we wish and wanted as kid ever stay with us forever. I met a boy in my present, not in the past and not...

A man with Story

 I saw a man, somewhere downtown the hill doloroza, As I sighted him, he raise his brawl and it attracted my instinct. I took few steps towards him and I stoop, squat for he's a man who has a story. He said to me, "boy! do you know me?" I replied, " I can only know you through your untold stories ". He gazed, I sensed he was convinced and won by my reply. Dusting up his head, rapped with thorns and trying to weave his garment around his body razed by stripes, he said "sit"  and all he could offer me to sit was a stone in the garden of Gethsemane. Again he said, "take my hands", taking his hands became a switch of time, We journeyed in trans, to stone age where their highway was dust and chariots and their courtrooms with sanhindrins and Caesar was the Paramount one. Now hear my story if it will inspire you he said. "I am a king born in a stable, whose blanket was raffier and my jingel the blat of rams and cattle, A presence of gold, fran...

JAC

And yesterday was our JAC(Job Awareness Creation) sensitization seminar in Eket Secretariat, which saw corpers from all the Eket sub zone coming together under a umbrella that unites our ambitious goal.       Although, some fell under the category of "attendance is compulsory" while some came for the big cake that doesn't appear so appealing. Hmm...! Where do I categorize myself? I woke up that morning feeling so bunch like a log of wood, my head still aches from the previous day accumulated stress, I never saw any ginger to raise me up not even the so called JAC program. Well!, I reluctantly said my morning prayers, cracking up words, nodding, dozing, waking up and at the same time trying to stay conscious of time. Hmm... Mehn! Lethargic and laziness overload. Rounding up and getting up to start preparing, I picked up my white canvas to clean it up, only to step out and from upstairs find my female colleague suited up in what I will call partial 6/7 vest coming to call u...

A sunday to Remember

Out of concern, love, affection we sometimes do some things and out of drive and empathy things just somehow some times engraft for us. I think that was what happened yesterday. "Will you follow me down to Ikot Abasi after the church service"? Wooooo! Yes Yes! ma, no problem. Wow! within me a volcanic eruption of excitement just exploded. When I say volcanic eruption, mehn! I mean just like the one that happened in the movie titled 2012 because to me this was an answered prayer request. I have heard of the slave trade route "POINT OF NO RETURN" in Ikot-Abasi and I have listed it among places I'll visit before leaving NYSC.  Last year, and as a reminder almost every month, I've always inform one of a colleague serving there that, I will come visiting, and to add to this, I love visiting new places. Real! where are you? Come out to attest to this (smile)😀 See guys!, this things is more two way thing than it appears. this is another chapter. Is more than a win...
