Episode 8: Sudden burst of sunlight

Adeboye 22:50:00 No comments:

It’s nine days since the accident. Kim is back home. But for a short thread-like mark on her forehead, no one would know she had a brush with death. Sam has been doing everything to ensure her happiness.

Kim’s still so confused. She isn’t sure she wants to continue with the relationship, which, going by Sam’s calculation, is already altar bound. If it doesn’t work out, what will she do with the pregnancy which is sneaking into its 19th week and peeking out gradually?

Concerns over planned publication of bank debtors’ names

Adeboye 04:08:00 No comments:

With less than a fortnight to the expiration of the August 1, 2015, deadline that the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) gave banks to publish names of chronic debtors, concern is growing in industry circles that the exercise could lead to lawsuits, thereby making it harder for lenders to recover their funds. New Telegraph’s findings reveal that as most banks are finalising arrangements to go ahead with the publication of the names of recalcitrant debtors, such borrowers are also raising an alarm that the exercise could negatively affect the economy. For instance, in a press statement last Sunday, the Lagos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (LCCI) urged banks not to proceed with the publication as many debtors defaulted due to factors that could be linked to ill-thought out government policies. The Chamber said: “It is important to avoid sweeping generalisations and examine the context of default on a case by case basis.

U-16 Basketball: Nigeria picks silver, world championship ticket

Adeboye 03:50:00 No comments:

Nigeria’s majestic run at the FIBA Africa U-16 Championship in Madagascar came to an end on Sunday, in the final match of the tournament, at the hands of Mali who had to hold on for dear life for a 57-46 victory as the Nigerians furiously attempted to fight back from a poor first half performance.
Sunday’s win means Mali have now won all four editions of the championship since its inaugural edition in 2009. The Nigerians, meanwhile, were making their debut appearance at the championship and will definitely hold their heads high after limiting Africa’s number one side to just 57 points. The least number of points the Malians had scored prior to Sunday’s win over Nigeria had been the 73 they poured in in their quarterfinal victory over Morocco. The Malians averaged 81.85 points per game.

Sam examines Kim’s phone, turning it back and forth as if it will tell him everything he seeks to know. His heart aches.

What if the accident is very bad? What if…what if… what… He remembers his mother and the fact that she would have turned to ‘her Father in heaven’ if she found herself in this situation. He murmurs some prayers and turns to the young man who has been observing him all this while and said, “Thanks er…er… bros. What happened?

Episode 6: Mama’s prayer answered?

Adeboye 22:12:00 No comments:

Sam had left the village that morning. He knew Kim wouldn’t run to any other place but Lagos. When his mother came back from church that morning, she was sure no harm would befall his unborn baby and his ‘wife’.

“Go and look for your wife. You will find her and she will not abort the pregnancy. At the due time, I’ll come to take care of my grandchild. My father in heaven assured me of that,” mama had told him.

He marveled at her faith. Somehow, it encouraged him. He had the presence of mind to wolf down breakfast before driving off. “My father in heaven will lead you, my dear son. I’m waiting for you here. I will not cease telling my father in heaven about you and your wife. You will come back with your wife for your marriage ceremony.

12 year old Kafayat Kareem was battered by her father who used barb wire to beat her mercilessly for defending her mother during one of her parent's fight at their home in Orile Iganmu, Lagos. Kafayat's father pounced on his wife after he discovered she used his money to play lottto. Kafayat, who is a Junior Secondary School 1 student at Canal Secondary School, Orile, Lagos, said if not for the timely intervention of vigilante people who found her writhing in pain inside the market, she would have died.

Report: Suicide bomber strikes near SS office in Maiduguri

Adeboye 12:32:00 No comments:

A suicide bomber driving a three-wheeled vehicle detonated near the office of State Security in Maiduguri, the Borno State capital, on Saturday, two security sources said.

The security sources said the blast went off a few metres from the office at about 7 a.m. local time (0600 GMT). One of the security sources said one person was killed, as well as the bomber, while a hospital source said four people were being treated for injuries.

The city, the birthplace of Islamist militant group Boko Haram, is frequently hit by bombings.

It has been the target of several attacks since Muhammadu Buhari, president of Africa’s most populous nation and biggest economy, made it the command centre for the campaign against the militant group after being inaugurated on May 29.

Two suicide bombers blew themselves up near a Maiduguri hospital during a visit by the vice president at the start of July and, a few days later, Boko Haram militants attacked the city from the outskirts, notes Reuters.

Diary Of An Ibadan Hustler In Lagos (EPISODE 6)

Adeboye 22:42:00 No comments:

There is no gain without pains. As the old advertisement slogan of the OMO Multi Active Detergent says ''there is no learning without stains" All these insinuations depict the pains of trying something new in life. They all come with new challenges your person will have to conform with. All these will help you in being a better and more improved person when you get over it.

Back in Ibadan I had all the basic comfort facilities I could ever think of. The cost of living was of living was outrightly cheap, my parents have houses in Ibadan and its impossible for me to sleep in them at once, my parents are not too rich but my family boasts of the culture of massive eating. You may not enjoy the luxury of visiting top eateries in the neighbourhood but the cookings of my mother and sister were in excess. Today, everything seems to have changed. I remember budgeting a minute sum of just N2, 000 on transport to work in a month while in Ibadan which a lot of people frowned at as they felt it was too much. In Lagos today, the amount has gone up by 10 times. That is what you get when you want to advance in life.
That is part of the pains of accepting new challenges.

I remember the ease of transportation from my house at Jericho to my working place at Ring Road in Ibadan. Atimes I used to make it to work within a time frame of 10 to 15 minutes. I loved the breeze and the speed of the commercial motorcycles popularly called the "Okadas" it was the cheapest luxury affordable to all poor or average class individuals in Ibadan. Over here in Lagos, motorcycles have been banned on major roads and the motorcycles are highly restricted to some streets. The cheap comfort got me flying over the moon. This is a feeling only me understands. The traffic was mostly free leading to the ease of movement. This changed in Lagos. Movement by commercial motorcycles here is like a luxury among the 'higher masses', it could be more expensive than flying a private plane to work except you want to move around your street. The prices are constantly well determined by turn out of events. When the traffic is intensive, the price skyrockets but may remain moderate if the traffic conditions are normal. Are the conditions ever normal? My bed misses me. In Lagos, you wake up as early as 4am in the morning to head to work and still arrive late. This accounts for the reason why several passengers sleep in Lagos buses. It was strange to me when I came in newly but a careful observation and research revealed the surrounding circumstances to me. It’s either a case of the buses at the park not getting filled up with passengers before movement or you are being faced with the traffic issues historically affecting Lagos state. The hold-up hassles could make you fall sick. One of my cousins once joked after spending over 5 hours in a grid-lock that an accumulation of such stress is capable of reducing a Lagosian's lifespan. As funny as this may seem, there is an element of truth in it.

I once left the house around 7am for work; the bus took off but got entangled in traffic. We spent a 'short' period of 2 hours in a stagnant state. I cried in my heart, I love keeping up with time. I had to call the office to lodge the complaint. It wasn't new to them. Such act could lead you into problems in Ibadan. The incident happens when I am heading home. It is worse when you are plying the Festac Town route, passing through the touts-filled Orile and Mile2 Streets. Those are the most dangerous places to hang around at night. There is always a problem of getting commercial vehicles home. The grid-lock is like a norm. These areas boast thousands of able-bodied men without a decent way of living. They pour out of several corners of the streets in their hundreds without a definite motive to achieve roaming around. Waiting for opportunities to rob people or cause chaos. The sight of them at the bus stops when it is dark is very scary. You will notice some dark-skinned young men with terrible scars on their faces from previous fights and struggles. They will never hustle to enter buses. They will only pretend to do so pick pockets. I sit down a times and wonder how long I could take this.

Each time I remember home, I smile at the beautiful beds I had in Ibadan. The comfort was amazing but over here in Lagos, the inevitable culture of temporary squatting for newcomers forced me to sleep on bare tiles. I used the carton of a flat screen Television as my pillow and the carton of a GOTV decoder as the other part of my supposed bed. The dramatic events that led to this happened when my pal's girlfriend returned from the NYSC camp. She was excited to see him that night. I saw hunger in her eyes. The body language was too glaring. Sharing the bed with them in the room would have prompted her to stab me in the middle of the night. I quietly created a makeshift bed for myself. My pal looked at me with pity but I returned his look with a bright smile. The discomfort was quite much; the ground was too hard on my skin coupled with so much coldness. For close to two hours, I was yet to find a convenient spot to drive myself to rest for the following day's work. I remembered home again and I smiled in pains. I wanted to take a selfie which I would have kept safely like an artifact because the day deserves to be remembered. The day would be used as a testimony to encourage others when things certainly get better. My phone never afforded me the opportunity of a historic selfie as it was faulty. My philosophy of life changed when I got to Lagos. I believe there is nothing wrong in passing through odd roads to reach your paradise. It’s only wrong when you dwell permanently on the odd roads.

I have to accept that the level of comfort I had in Ibadan as well as the absence of real competitors limited me. I felt on top of the sky over there while I was still too close to the ground like I was standing up from a fall.

I hope to win big in Lagos. A lot of people believe you can make it anywhere if you can make it in Lagos and I vividly believe it is true.

Episode 5: Ancestral wrath?

Adeboye 22:11:00 No comments:

Sam dials Kim’s phone number and it’s either switched off or out of network area.

He jumps out of the bed, dashes outside and combs the whole compound and neighborhood. Kim is nowhere to be found. He dials her phone number countless times and on each occasion, he gets the same response.

He walks, dejected, back to his compound. His mind in a turmoil, he goes to his mother’s room.

Mama is awake and praying. He waits impatiently until she finishes. As she sees him, she raises quizzical eyes. She is obviously surprised to see him in her room this early in the morning.
