It was a Sunday evening. My wife turned over and gave me that loving look which had “I have something on my heart to tell you” stamped into it. She said, “Darling, can I tell you something truthfully?”. “Yes, dear. Please do”, I replied. Then comes the lovely knock out “I am bored”. Instinct would make a man think like, […]
The police officer stopped me and asked me to kindly identify myself. I was in a hurry to catch up with our midweek service. I told him my name and that, “I am a lawyer”. That earned me an immediate pass. But I failed the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit asked again as I drove off to identify myself. I […]
We landed at the airport in Kano that day. We knew how expensive it was to charter an airport taxi to our Law School Campus at Bagauda. We opted to get to town and find buses. Exactly what we did. But we were at the roadside for so long- we did not get a bus heading to Bagauda. To make […]
Danielle was playing some educational games on her mum’s tablet. Olive was observing and dancing to the music coming from the games. Some minutes later, she began to reach out and grab the tablet from her sister. While she struggled to get it from her sister, I called out to her and said to her, “Olive, you cannot handle it […]
Four months after the commencement of the ministry in Eruwa, my Spiritual Father came to Eruwa for a meeting. I had the privilege of telling him about the vision. He said to me, “Son, get set to fly”. Beloved, the call of God never reduces a man. It is a call to increase always. The call of God is always […]
As I stepped out of the room, I noticed that my daughter had dipped her hand inside a wastebasket. She picked up a maize cob and was about putting it in her mouth when I saw her. I quickly grabbed it from her and said to her, “Olive, you cannot eat from there”. If you are well pastored, you cannot […]
I love weddings. Everything about it. I enjoy the wedding reception where the smell of food and the sound of music permeates the air. Severally at weddings, I have left without eating anything (even my wife and I do not know how the rice of our own wedding tastes like). I have a simple solution that I adopted: “I do […]
My second daughter has a unique hobby- she will climb any height. She would climb dining chairs to get on the dining table. She would climb chairs to get on my study table also. She feels like a conqueror everytime she surmounts each obstacle. We have to keep our eyes closely on her. As we prayed one night, I picked […]
As a young boy, I had the privilege of visiting my Dad at work. Seeing the artwork of his students was always a delight. However, whenever Dad steps in to appraise their work, I am always surprised when he begins to correct the things that I celebrated. The things that I see as a great art piece suddenly emerges with […]
When they fired the guns and halted our moves, we knew we were stuck with them and all we could do was pray. They began to ask occupants of the bus to get down and lie face down. Just in a moment, we saw a vehicle with police escorts attacking our attackers. That was how we escaped. We did not […]
