We were preparing for a major meeting years ago when I was still a Corp member. It was a Christian Concert with a focus on Charity. We wanted excellence. Because of this, we raised some funds to invest in some new sound accessories to augment what we had already. We bought most of them a day before the concert. The […]
A young woman once called me and mentioned that someone asked her to reach out to me. She had a dream three times that she was picking snails. She was told that it meant she would be poor. I told her to do something simple: Go to a restaurant. Order a meal and request a snail instead of the regular […]
I have lost phones twice. They both happen back-to-back in 2005 and 2006: I boarded a cab heading to Ife from Ibadan. I slept off. I woke up just as the car got to the campus gate. I alighted from the cab and made my way to the campus. As I entered campus, my consciousness was restored. My phone was […]
I was walking with my dear friends, and we had to pass through a spot where everyone had to stretch a bit to climb to the next level. They all chose the option of climbing and they did it with ease, but I could not do the same. I walked to the lowest point that wheelchairs could pass easily and […]
A while back, we were on the search for a house to move into. We saw the images of a particular building. It looked like what we wanted, and we could use. We scheduled a visit to the property. The agent communicated with the owner of the house. We fixed a time for inspection. He spoke to the owner just […]
A dear son in the faith got a birthday gift of an expensive bottle of perfume. He placed it on the table forgetting that his ten-month-old nephew was around. The baby got a grip of the bottle of expensive perfume, and you know the end of the story – the bottle broke and the fragrance that had been locked up […]
As we sat in the fuel station that evening, my dear friend, and brother looked at me and said, “Bro. Temi, you really hurt me”. I was shocked. He then went ahead to narrate the reasons why he has been so hurt. It was legit. I apologised. I did not know how much I messed up when I carried out […]
My parents told me the story of a health crisis that my brother had while he was still about a year old. They took him to the hospital in Eruwa, and the doctor referred him to the University College Hospital that night. My parents did not wait till morning. They began the journey that night because the life of a […]
My maternal grandpa came back and asked, “Anuoluwapo, did anyone check up on us while we were away?” That was when my senses woke up. I remember that while I was sleeping, an elderly couple came visiting and told me to tell my grandparents that they were back from the hospital. What was the consequence of my forgetfulness? First, my […]
We were preparing to head to church one morning. While waiting for my parents, our neighbour’s son and I played outside. He sat on the grassy drive-in. Behold, a tiny snake slithered just over his hands and found its way into the nearby thickness of flowers. He did not sit to explain. He jumped. We ran. It was scary. Beloved, […]
