I SAW THE WOOD BUT NOT HIM

We had to get some renovation work done in the ministry office. We called the carpenter to do some work. On one of the days, I stepped out of the office and I saw the planks.

GIVE DADDY SOMETHING TO REJOICE OVER

I laid on the floor beside Olive as she made attempts to climb me. Just then, she moved away and began to crawl faster than I had ever seen her crawl in the direction of an attractive object. I called Irewamiri in excitement. I wanted her to see Olive crawling with ease and speed. At that point, the Holy Spirit […]

THE WEIGHT OF TIME

I was in conversation with an elderly person and I was deeply stirred by his passion for what he does and the push he gives to it. I was forced to ask him, “Daddy, why are you running with so much passion and so relentlessly?” His answer was instructive. He said to me, “My brother, I have wasted so much […]

THEY WRITE EXAMS IN PRISON

I was visiting one of the examination regulatory bodies for secondary schools in Nigeria. While I was in a conversation in one of the offices. My eyes strayed to the notice board. I saw something interesting that I never knew before. There was a notice on the board about candidates who write exams from the prison. I was alarmed. I […]

CARRY THAT TURKEY

Till date, I cannot kill a hen (Thou shall not murder but I love eating it). But I used to be worse off- I could not even carry a hen. I was pretty scared of them but it all changed one December evening in my teenage years. I was holidaying with my grand-uncle. They were carrying turkey into a waiting […]

HOW MUMMY KNOWS THAT MY SISTER IS SICK

Mummy has a way of detecting when my elder sister is sick. She is scared of hospitals, injections and drugs. My sister would take on house chores that Mum did not even ask for. She answers questions faster than you ask. She also talks a bit more than normal. This is all in a bid to hide the fact that […]
