 "WHY YOU MUST BE WISE" An essay. Enjoy. So, this man, a Nigerian living in the USA guaranteeing to help my writing career explode brought his Nigerian girlfriend to me to write a website landing page for her business. Initially, he'd criticized me so much about my writing style, and contested that I couldn't excel in my chosen career. He advised that I'd started breeding dogs for sales. So, when he brought the lady, I thought of it that I should bill them moderately. But I was surprised when this man from Texas, USA told me that I'm to do the work probono, since it's one of the criteria he'd use in accessing my writing excellence to ascertain if I'm worth helping or not. Ah! Ìkúnlẹ̀ abiyamọ o! I'm to do a real-time landing page for free? Just because an atheist living in the USA is giving me a "lifeline"? So I humbly told the man that: "I don't work that way. My works are out there. I could have given you a website landing p...

 Towards the end of the year 2019, I realized that aside from eating to enhance my living, I've not achieved what society expected from my age and gender. I began to get worried. I hustled as much as I could but the year won't just yield. So I sat back, after all, I cannot kill myself by myself. I bought a big notebook and started making resolutions for the year 2020. I was energized to compete and be richer than Jeff Bezos. I wanted to be more trending than Elon Musk. And I swiveled into 2020. Yes, it's like I would blow. - my breakthrough seems to be attached to the year. In January I made some amount of money. Though it couldn't afford to take me on holiday in the Caribbean, but was enough to cover my transportation bill to visit my father's grave in the village with modest feeding. The hope was high! In my thoughts; just as a thin line separates dying from living, only a break will move me through my poverty into huge riches. Then COVID-19, from being an outbrea...

Someday, my strength will become vulnerable, and my voice will fail me.  My body will be heavier than my deftness. I'll only be able to reminiscent of my youthful prowess in my feebleness. I want to be forever young, but I can't stop the progress of time.Someday, I'll die, cos I've lived after I was born. To those that are dead, fare thee well. To those who are about to die, salutation. My passing, NOT today. ©️ FERT, 2020

The efficacy of juju. An unexplained phenomenon will remain a mysterious myth until its knowledge is gotten. Volcanic eruption was once considered supernatural, until knowledge came. People prayed for rain then, but with silver linen, rain can now be induced over an area (at a cost.) If a man believed to possess great charm was harmed, and the next place he could go to for healing is an orthodox hospital, then, something is amiss with the juju. Juju, is real or not, I'm yet to see a charm that can withstand Asteroid. Let's learn well. © FERT, 2019

Curiosity they say kills the cat. I am not a cat and I didn’t get killed, but I discovered something. All my life I have always seen people chew sticks in the name of cleaning their mouth and I wonder what is wrong with them, after all, there are brushes with different options of toothpastes. I concluded they are just some village people who won’t change with the trend of things. Then I saw a young lady who is also in the practice, and she said she chews ‘orin ata’ (pepper stick). "What’s pepperish about it." I asked. And she said, "it is pepperish."  So after a while of seeing the stick, I picked it up and chewed a little part of it without the bark. Nothing happened - then I picked a little more then with the bark, so, something happened.  It was as if my mouth was in pepper. I have not come across any toothpaste with that strong mint. This is it, we cannot develop using others people technology. I still wonder why we depend so much...

A bird that will like to fly high, must learn to fly alone. SERVICE! If my goal in life is to make all the money, then I can never be trustworthy, for I will be ready to do whatever it takes to get it. I am telling myself this, service should be my goal. What effect will my vision have on my immediate environment? Will it ever create any positive impact on the coming generation? Will I ever be able to solve any world problem? Money can't solve problem, it will only create the thirst to seek for more money anyhow, using any means. War is financially profitable but it does destroy humanity. Our hunger problem started when we started seeking for ways to make profit out of it, I won't blame GMO that much; they are only seeking for more profit. With the way I see drugs getting patented, I tend to forget that food is the real medicine. Service is a huge sacrifice, most times taking short cuts always cut things short. In this life that I will live just once, I will work har...

When all is LEFT, everything is right! Lefthandedness is one of nature's distribution which is still struggling to gain general acceptance in our world. Many people see it as a bad thing - sign of disrespect and evil, few overhype the phenomenon - viewing it as a good omen, while others are indifferent about it. It's during President Obama's tenure that Terrorist Osama Bin Laden was captured. These two great men were Lefthanders! The etymology of the word left is from the Anglo-Saxon word "lyft," and it means weak or broken. Even, the word sinister is derived from the Latin word "sinestra, " and it initially meant “left.” We all know the meaning of sinister. Oh this is unfair to the Southpaws. Dexter means right, hence the word “dexterity” shows a right-handed bias referring to being right completely. Majority of the world religions see the phenomenon as a negative thing. In fact, the term "left-handed honeymoon" actually connotes ...

Medical teams don't have the answers at times. They make worse paralysis cases with medication and unnecessary surgery. Just like in the faith arena, medicine is invented and oversees by human beings. Pentecostal churches in Nigeria have perfected the art of captialism. No doubt. Sickness can make the most reasonable person believe absurdity. Pain is not funny. There is no straight answers that to stop struggling. Many of us hardly know how to do that. Toyin Ajao

Love, Hatred, Fear, Anger, Jealousy and Bitterness are all part of a person's character that consist of feelings. You are permitted to express any of these emotions but know that feelings at times can be misleading. Hatred, Fear, Anger, Jealousy and Bitterness can kill anyone nursing it, through high blood pressure. In all things chose to love, stand for love, defend in love and please correct with love. Why allow Fear when it is not constant, Bury your Hatred for it affects the smiles, Jealousy may not be right after all, Anger do burn its carrier, Love makes the world go round. There is this story about a man who sent his servant on an errand to buy him some goods from another town with a huge sum of money. The journey was supposed to take two days but the servant won't return three days after, he was not even reachable on his cell phone. The park where he boarded the vehicle to the town could not ascertain what could have happened to him. This old...

I'm dumping Atheism. I am going religion. See, I'm tired of strippers stopping me from touching their butts just because I have no God to fear. While my friends that profess God get down with them. It's not cool getting ostracised by the faithful who goes clubbing and drinking liquor to stupor. You'll not understand the pain of an atheist whose co-workers shared loots without extending to him because it is God's doing and marvellous in the eyes of His beloved. It can be very annoying when your fellow students chase you out of an examination malpractice intent just because they believe that you'll bring bad-luck upon their plans. I am flipping side to testify to the glory of the Lord that maketh all these possible. The gods are partial and favouritism of grace and forgiveness is their forte. So I am switching camp. Let there be light! © FERT, 2016

VANITY? My father was the late rich business tycoon of the Cocoa industry, he had many mansions throughout the world with beautiful wives chosen from different ethnicity and then blessed with plenteous children. As a caring father, he gave all his children the best education money could get and opportunities to explore our worlds. We are forever grateful and proud of him. He was a true Nationalist and a devouted philanthropist. When he died, the world momentarily stopped to honour the opulent man. We buried him in a golden casket, and decorated his graveyard with diamond and gold, right in his hometown. All in remembrance of a righteous business man. Years rolled by, the economy of the country forced many of my siblings to travel out of the country; yes I left the country as well but came back and was gainfully employed into politics. I am a NIGERIAN POLITICIAN by profession, career and calling; what a far more rewarding job to get employed into. The last time I visited m...

DISCIPLINE I was there at his birth, when the midwives shouted at his mother who was groaning in the pains of child delivery labour. The nurses were not any nice. I heard it loud and clear when one of nurses asked the poor woman to keep quiet simply because she was not there when she was enjoying the sexual intercourse with her husband that resulted into what she was suffering from at the moment; what a bad woman. On his safe arrival on planet Earth, Nigeria to be precise; the nurses slapped his innocent buttocks for not crying aloud to announce his arrival. Then his mother took over the beatings; she would slap his cheeks, give him a knock on his head and then kick his bom-bom. She would force this growing baby to eat by blocking his nose, locking his hips in her laps then open his mouth to force the fluid in. His daddy was not left out of the discipline-process, as he was fond of giving the kid twenty-four strokes of the cane on his right hand. His teacher was an expert at ...

My problems got so much on me, and then I thought of ending it. However, I decided to visit a White garment church before bidding the world farewell. At the entrance of the church, I was asked to put off my shoe for I was at a holy place. And I did. After my consultation with the priest, and on my getting to the entrance gate of the temple, I found my shoe missing at the holy ground. So a holy voice said unto me; "you've got no problem really; after all your shoe is expensive enough to be stolen. And then I went home and live happily ever after. © FERT, 2016

Lucas is asexual, he's never had sex in his entire 42 years of living. He's foolishly touring the world, without thinking of settling down to raise a family. He's financially able to marry 4 wives, yet the dumb guy will not just think about it. He's a disgrace to manhood, I mean, how can a child be given birth to, yyet will not think of procreating? I'm looking for willing people that we may go and lynch the fool. He's trying to disrupt nature's balance. Note: ASEXUALITY is the lack of sexual attraction to anyone. Low or absent in sexual activity. HOMOSEXUALITY is an enduring pattern of emotional, romantic and or sexual attraction to people of the same sex. HETEROSEXUALITY is a romantic or sexual attraction prson of the opposite sex or gender. © FERT, 2016

*Between 1914 and 1918 around sixty-five million (65, 000, 000) humans were killed during the first world war. *Spanish influenza of 1918, killed almost one hundred million humans. *Around eighty-five million (85, 000, 000) people died in the second world war between the years 1939 through 1945. *Between 1949 and 1976, almost seventy-eight million (78, 000, 000) people died during General Mao Zedong Cultural revolution in China. ...In all these terrible genocides, the world didn't come to any end; life goes on. New World Order didn't just start today, it has been since the very time modern humans evolved. Remember; Alexander the Great, Adolf Hitler And other warriors seeking to dominate the world in those day. Okay, Ebola outbreak, ISIL, Boko Haram terrorism and USA-NATO face off with Russia showing signs of end times? You may be wrong... ...Disease is for the profit of the Pharmaceutical industry, and War is for the profit of Banks and Armours manufacturers. ...

The 'wise' Nigerian kings are gladly sending their pregnant wives to the USA to give birth to children with foreign citizenship. Nigerian military generals are counselling their children to joining the USA military. Professors in Nigeria are encouraging their wards to go get degrees at universities overseas. The smart Nigerians are getting connected to the politicians somehow. The gullible Nigerians are still taking about political parties. The country Nigeria doesn't exist in the mind of many hustlers. © FERT, 2015

Adewale (not real name) my friend after several unproductive attempts at making life comfortable for himself heard about an opportunity in Malaysia that will require him sell one of his Kidneys for twelve million naira, he jumped at it and came back to establish a reasonably large poultry farm in Oyo township. Whenever I ask him about his fate of living long, he do reply me by saying; "people die daily with their organs intact yet poorer than the death that took away their lives. Or haven't you heard of people dying because of their inability to buy anti-malaria drug?" The government of his state will soon start to tax Adewale's farm even when they contributed nothing to making him become successful.  Tony's (not real name) mother was so sick that she needed to be taken out of the country for treatment. The family is too poor to afford the cost of this treatment and were losing hope. But Tony has a gift, his effeminacy. This made him get several attentions...

THE YOU In the face of environmental pressure, find you. In the heat of upholding family tradition, know you. At the point of religious indoctrination, love you. Explore life, Be free, Break barriers, Be daring, but don't be overboard. Try all you can while you can, however, don't loose you totally in the process. ÒYÈLÀ: thy intuition/perceptions be opened to wisdom, light, understanding, discernment. © FERT, 2015

For the brave... * Do NOT panic. * Be calculating enough to make the snake fall of the tree. Attack the snake because you need to survive. Actually the snake venom bite shouldn't take more than 5 minutes to kill it's victim - compared to crocs bite which can be painful and lion tearing of flesh very disastrous. *If you are successful in sending the snake down into the river...you're left with lion and crocs. However, if the snake fall onto the ground, it will be a case of the Lion against the Snake...the Snake may kill the Lion and get killed too from the Lions claws. But if the snake fall into the water...it will become food for the crocs.  You'll be left with lion to deal with - so rest and take a deep breath on the half cut tree. Plan ahead, if the tree will fall off...you can use the tree branch to attack the lion...who knows it may run. If you don't attack these animals to safe yourself...you be killed.  * Ultimately, don't die like a coward...
