DADDY WAS A STEP AHEAD

After my wife said “Yes” on the18th of August 2013. I thought I would surprise my Dad with the good news on his birthday, the 20th of August. Well! After wishing him a Happy Birthday. I told both himself and mum that I had a surprise for them and I broke the good news. They both rejoiced with me. But […]

“SIR, IT IS VAN NOT FAN”

A mentor shared how he preached a great sermon. It was the kind of Word that the preacher knows that he surely delivered. Still enjoying the euphoria of the moment, a young lady walks up to him and requested audience. He obliged. Then comes the bombshell: “Sir, the pronunciation is Van and not Fan”. He felt like “Ah! After this […]

“UNCLE, CAN YOU EXCUSE ME? I WANT TO DRESS UP”

My little niece was 4 years old then. I was having a chat with her mum and elder sister when she stepped out of the bathroom. She had a towel around her little body. Once she stepped into the room and saw me (I had not even noticed her presence), she said with her four-year voice but with the confidence […]

WHAT THE NIGER GIRL TAUGHT ME

As I was about entering the University gate, a young Nigerien girl grabbed my left arm- I really felt like shrugging her off but I tried to be patient as she begged for money. At that point, I had made up my mind to give her a hundred naira note but I decided to interact with her. I began to […]

WORD GUARD

Sometimes ago, I had a dream that I was visiting with a church member. While there, two men arrived on a motorcycle. They made straight for where I was. They stormed into the room and pointed a gun at my chest. I began to smile. One of them angrily said, “They told us that you are very stubborn but we […]

“I WILL WAIT FOR MY WIFE”

When I heard Danielle’s first cry at 2.23 am on the 22nd of March, 2017, my heart leapt for joy. When the nurse brought her out, I simply looked at her beautiful face. Then I told them, “I am waiting with my wife”. It took some time later but I stayed to follow my wife back to the room. I […]

NOT SIZE BUT LENGTH

As I stepped down the podium, I noticed I had aches on my right elbow. I kept wondering what was the cause. It then occurred to me that I had held on to the microphone for more than an hour. I have the habit of using my right hand to hold the microphone as I teach. The microphone is quite […]

I HAVE BEEN PAID FOR…

I am a passionate lover of roasted plantain (we call it boli in Yoruba), especially when it is accompanied with groundnut- yummy! I always take some Ribena alongside with it. So think about you walking up to a roasted plantain seller with that strong appetite to have your favourite. You saw a really big, fresh and nicely roasted plantain and […]

TAKE AUTHORITY

The first time I would live alone was when I got admitted to Olabisi Onabanjo University- no parental supervision, just me! That was January 2004. I was 17 years old. I spent 7 months in that school as a law undergraduate. One weekend, while all my flatmates had travelled, sickness struck. I was running temperature. I was shivering. And it […]

SACRIFICES, PROCESS AND PURPOSE

38 years ago when my spiritual father went to ask out his wife, he told her “If you are not ready to marry a full-time minister, do not even consider the proposal”. It was not fashionable to graduate from the university and take on ministry work in the ’80s! Let me give you a peep into mine- The only furnished […]
