I think I'm back It all started on a Monday night when I was still chatting on WhatsApp with my friends. I told my friend that my eyes are paining me and that I will have to go offline so early that night and she said I should get pain relief before I sleep and sent me a good night's farewell. So I went to sleep hoping that by tomorrow the pain should have left me. Of course, the pain in my eyes left but I knew my body system was different. I wasn't myself that morning and I…
June is still fresh How will I do without writing about a new month? It's not possible cos I will surely write about it. May wasn't bad, it was great to have it come by and leave also. I wonder why so many people complained about the month of May and later end it with a bit of a positive statement. Well, for me it was fine and great even though it ended with a three days sickness, lols. All thanks to God cos I am over it now and the sickness has gone now, hallelujah. I…
Appeasing the gods My friends will laugh again at this that what has Gaftek brought to us to read again. Well, it was just a thought that ran through my mind this evening after having deep thinking about how everyone is complaining about rusty exile and I also experienced it too. He has barely visited my article and when he came it was just low compared to the good old days 🤗. Just like I did when I wrote a letter to @TheRandomRewarder some weeks back, I told him how I felt…
Patience and wisdom Happy Sunday to every one of us reading this, today being the 5th of June is the first Sunday of this month, so it is assumed to be a praise Sunday everywhere and if it wasn't, I want to believe it was still great. I was watching a video some weeks back and it came to my mind this afternoon and was reminiscing about the deep meaning and I could deduce that we need patience but not patiently alone, it should go along with wisdom. What do I mean by this,…
We all lose sometimes I was so tired this afternoon and I thought of what to do so something struck my mind and what's that? So I picked up my phone and thought of listening to music. So I decided to listen to my very best Nigerian artist called Brymo. Many people don't really vibe to his song cos he doesn't sing what they want to hear but he prefers to sing what the people need to know, that's amazing, right? Yes, it is. I love the type of his song, his songs call me back…
Pencils in the hand of the creator As a child grows, it tends to get wiser in knowledge and wisdom except for those who choose to remain in ignorance. It's now that I am beginning to realise some words I have seen over the past and bringing meaning to them after what I have learned and gained in the recent time. This shows I am growing and I am happy about that. Nigerians will know this popular television movie show tagged " Super story ", I grow up watching it and it was a…
Stop it Nigerians on this platform must have heard the full gist of the APC primary election and how it was been held overnight with the person emerging as the contestant for the upcoming election. What's making me laugh about this whole matter is the way people are criticising the man who emerges called Bola Ahmed Tinubu. It happened that during the Endsars period in 2020, he was accused to be behind the massacre that happened at the lekki toll gate and ever since then,…
I am so sorry for my inactivity today, there have been interruptions in our light for two days now. I had to go pay to charge my power bank so that I can come online here, I am just preparing my article for today. I will be through soon and will read the few articles that I can touch.
Just a little more I give kudos to @Bisolammy for inspiring me on this write-up. I am going to be talking about the same thing she said with no difference in what I will result to, I am going to nail it at the head just like she did. My brother was preaching one time on a Sunday morning in church when he mentioned a particular lawyer. He does go and teaches his children a private lesson every Monday during the week so as a result, he got so close to him and they became…
The changes I find it funny because when I was young I always do a lot of things. Go to every party with my parents, Go to birthday parties invited or not, stayed out under the sun and played around the street with my friends, I always wanted to leave the house and engage in necessary and unnecessary activities, I always wanted to make new friends, have fun in the rain because I find it refreshing, take pictures with my friends on Christmas day and parade the whole community…
Everything seems right in front of a child I am not married yet nor have I given birth but the fact remains that I am growing every day and I gather experience every freaky time. I have looked around me, especially at the area that I lived in and studied the people around there and I could denote that everything seems to be right in front of every child. Of course, I think you know that. That's why there is always room for correction and rebuke. If as a parent, you refuse to…
So love is as easy as ABC Gaftek!!!, this is me trying to hail myself whenever I am getting the result that I wanted, lols. @Jumper-01 can relate whenever I call my names several times while in class, he will be like I just like you for this, awwnn, I am blushing already. Enough of this, let me head straight to what happened. You must read one of the articles I wrote some weeks back when I said " Not again Gaf!!! ", I said I don't want to fall in love again of which I did…
My dad's farm I am not a farmer neither is my father a farmer but I couldn't think of a better topic to give this article than the one written above. Well, to some extent, it goes along with what I am about to explain. Get a popcorn and a drink to follow me on this journey to my dad's farm; There's this saying that *****"you never can tell how big the farm of the other people's dads are until you reach there but you assume your father own to be the biggest"*****. You will…
My black pen Whenever I need to be in the mood to write I look for my black pen. I use it in the office, the home, at school, and even in the car. I always write with a black pen because I love the way it writes. For me, it's smooth like silk and never have I had a problem with this pen. I have had some other brands that have broken or run low on ink too soon. My black pen is one of my favourite things that I own and I know will always enjoy it. This product is made from…
The man by the riverside There's a popular song we do sing while I was growing up whenever we are playing and the song goes thus; 🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼 Moni ni moni ni, modeji modeji Mori arugbo kan lodo Moni o bumi lomimu Olo hun bumi lomimu Moni o se apa change, moni o se se kelange Bi ipako abiamo, mi ni mi ni kayiko I feel like sharing the fictional story behind this song, get your popcorn and drink while you continue to read this. They were two friends James and John , they…
Please, don't do it Hey, you!!! It's you I am talking to, are you about to take that wild decision to do otherwise from what every other person in their right senses will never do, why not think about the consequence and take a bold step not to do it. I am begging you to please, don't do it. Hey, you!!! It's you I am talking to, are you about to be involved in that cybercrime act cos it's what is trending and viral in the whole of the country? I know you are not comfortable…
Human Trafficking We can make this planet a better place by making better decisions. And by the better decision I mean STOP IT cos in human trafficking, it's killing our people. Human trafficking is one of these habits that should be stopped and it is an evil business which involves the exploitation of people, usually children. There are many ways this is done, like kidnapping people and locking them in a secret room. It also involves the exploitation of people in other…
A time will come I am happy that the article I wrote about "please, don't do it" was able to touch lives and gave many people motivation and reasons to keep striving in whatever they are doing. Touching lives is what I plan to do, so the fact that it's happening is giving me goosebumps 🙈. Thank you all, I appreciate you all. Let's get down to today's article and learn also from it; So many bad things are happening all over the world and it seems nowhere is safe any longer. I…
A fight with my thought The fact that different people come here to motivate us or cheer us up doesn't mean they aren't facing anything bigger than them. It's funny when you hear a marriage counsellor having a broken home or failed relationship right, yes it happens and that's life for you. So many motivational speakers out there are facing something way bigger than what they say but they have to summon that courage and put out a smiling face. I give strong kudos to people…
Funny but true The popular Nigerian comedian compose a song in his skit and drop some funny lines that got everyone laughing and falling off their chairs. I laughed till I could no longer laugh again when I heard the song cos it was damn funny but after laughing I had to think about it and digest it. After so much thinking, I discovered that truth was present in there even though it was funny the way it came to appear. I will be picking the lines one by one and will be…
She stole my heart I haven't felt this way in my entire life, it was as if I can die anytime I am not able to get through to her. Is it her black shining skin I want to talk about or her cute smile that I will talk about or the overall beauty that I cannot resist is what I will talk about? All these were things that attracted me to her and fortunately for me, she has got the best character to spice up all that she possessed. Everything she does makes me happy and I see just…
You are getting old To be sincere with you all, I don't know what I want to publish today but thinking about it all night long till this very morning, something just popped up for me and I feel I should try to write something about it and that's what I am about to do. Do you know that life is very funny and we the people that live in it are also funny too? There was a point in everyone's life when you will be told that you are still young and vibrant so take your time and…
No favouritism when showing care Everyone deserves our care and love especially if they are ill or even if they are poor. They need our sincere care. People should not show favouritism when showing love to people, we must be genuine even to the last. In this life, we don't know when the gun might be put on the heads of our future generations till we die and even if the next generation is aware of what we did for them. They will never be grateful for what we did for them cos…
The end has not come for BCH It has been so long since I wrote about BCH but the thought came to me today to encourage my fellow crypto holder that there's still hope, a brighter one indeed. My brother was telling me the day before yesterday that I should keep holding my BCH ooo cos it will rise very soon but it will take months based on what he saw and what the market looks like. The Russian and Ukraine war has been part of what caused the downfall of crypto generally. It…
3 in 1 challenges As I have said in my last article that this week will be a very busy one for me cos of the six days work that I found, which involves administering immunisation to people and it has been taking my time and energy-consuming also. The first day was hell, it wasn't as if the work we as too much for a young guy like me but the fact that I have been at home for months and hadn't done any powerful work as that makes it to weak me and feel it was kind of…
Goodnight Today was great and tiring at the same time but all glory be to God. Rain fell heavily and it affected us a bit but we were able to do the little we can do. I had to do some people's work cos they were not around and it will delay us if we don't do it, they later joined us and we were able to achieve the target for the day. We finished early and late at the same time and after all the submissions and handing over of work, I left the place with the mindset to have…
