• • "LONELINESS IS SO FAR OUT OF THE CONVERSATION THAT IT TOOK ME A YEAR TO EVEN REALIZE I FELT IT." It started much earlier, but I became aware of it on a Thursday. Wednesday I was out of the office; when I got home, there was an email waiting for me from Sara. Subject: Walk Do you want to walk at 12:30 p.m.? We had started walking for half an hour at lunch, as an office, as part of a fitness challenge (which are always cropping up when you work for the government). Sara and I were the only two who kept it up after the challenge was over. We liked the air, we liked the sun, we liked each other's company. We hadn't always gotten along. When I started, I made a few too many jokes, and she gave a few too many disapproving looks. Our timing was always just a little bit off. At one point, I resolved to just keep my mouth shut around her. Fortunately, that didn't last. Vows of silence never really do with me. I talked. She talked. I opened up a li...

. One day all the employees reached the office and saw a big advice written on the door. "Yesterday the person who has been stopping your growth in this company passed away. You are invited to join the funeral." In the beginning, they got sad for the death of one of their colleagues, but after a while they got curious to know who was the man who stopped their growth.

There was a sign next to the mirror that read: "There is only one person who is capable to set limits to your growth...It is you. You are the only person who can influence your happiness, success and realization." Your life does not...

There was a viral photo sometime ago on the social media depicting a man who died at onigbongbo bus stop Maryland. Story behind the pix of the dead man goes thus... "A danfo brush his car, and this man left his car, remove his shoes and ran after the danfo, he try to hold the bus but the conductor push him away and another danfo coming hit him on his head and that was the end." This I can relate to the 2 scenarios below: Scenario 1: Two men were involved in a road rage in the ever busy Nyanya road in Abuja. One brushed the other's car without intention and without knowing. The fellow whose car was brushed pursued the other fellow, blocked him, came out of his car with his wheel spanner and commenced to break the head lamp of the other fellow. The other man refused to come out of his car, allowed the man in utter rage to satisfy himself and drove off. It cost N100,000.00 for him to fix his head lamp...but he is still alive. Scenario 2:  A staff of the National Ass...
