When I got her text message recounting some of the moments she had been through in her life’s journey, I rolled over from the bed to the floor and burst into tears. Rather than feel disgusted, the love in my heart skyrocketed to an amazingly great level. Love is not pity. Love is proof that you have encountered the resurrection […]
In 2013, I was on the bus returning from Uyo to Ibadan. A corps member sat by my side. We began to talk. Then she began to talk about an organisation called TOUCH. She said glowing things about the person who started it like she was told. I asked for the name of the person who started. She said, “I […]
I could not keep it to myself anymore. I drove all the way to Dad’s office and confessed to him I was in love with a young lady. He asked for her name and description. He kept smiling. We prayed together and trusted God for His leading. Dad did not say a word. Two days after my wife said “Yes” […]
As the doctor treated the bullet wound on my back, he said to me “You will feel a small bite on your back soon. Endure the pain. We will be close to finishing the stitching”. I felt the small bite but let out a deep groan. It was painful but I knew it will soon be over. One of the […]
I kept telling Danielle not to scatter the pack. Well! She did a clinical finishing of dismantling both the pack and all the contents also. Just when she was done, I asked her to begin to arrange all that she scattered. She looked at me soberly. She did not know what to do. Friends, it takes more effort to build […]

He would “romance” them in the car. Afterwards, he drives them home where his wife is waiting for them to preach the gospel to them. I […]
My wife called out to my daughter, “Moyantoluwa”. She kept saying, “I am coming’ but she did not leave what she was doing in the living room. Minutes after, she comes strolling in to the room. Her mum said to her, “Moyantoluwa, when mum calls you, is it good to delay?” (Well! My daughter said ‘Yes’ and Mum said the […]
The police officers were ready to play the delay game. I stood by the car while they went away with my car particulars. They reasoned I was not going to “rub their palm”. After a delay of about 30 minutes, I walked up to the most ranking officer and said to him, “There are two reasons why I would not […]
I was out of town for a meeting and I had to stay in a hotel. I went with one of my men. The hotel bill came with complimentary breakfast for one person. From experience, knowing that hotel meals could be expensive, I gave him some cash to get some meal at an eatery for breakfast. When I got to […]
