Don't Forget

These things you must know and live by. A hunter on hunting expedition once found a bird trapped in his trap. He went closer to the bird, and he found out that the bird was still alive.  The bird begged the man to allow him share the most important life teachings with him. "Say whatever you want to say very fast, for I shall kill you as meat for my family" the man spoke in a rather aggres tone to the bird. The bird said; "good man, there are three life teachings I want to tell you, please keep it at your heart and always apply it even after my demise." According to the bird;  "The foremost thing to acknowledge is to appreciate that which is in one's hand, it must be cherished.  Secondly, one must not worry over what cannot be changed." He then concluded that one should avoid taking the words of people too serious for there's always a great difference between words spoken and actions takens. The hunter was excited b...

What is Life

Life is actually meaningless!  I imagined a frustrated man who's fed up with life and thought of suicide more often.  This was because people were; owing him money, and nobody actually cared about him.  On a bright sunny afternoon, he was so angry and depressed.  He left his home with the thought of going to commit suicide by hanging.  On his way, he had an accident which didnt take his life but he suffered  memory lost.  He couldn't remember his past worries nor joy,  he couldn't remember his religion nor race,  he couldn't remember timing,  In fact one of his debtors visited him to pay him the borrow money at the hospital, yet he couldn't remember been owed.  He lost his memories!  Look at me my fellow humans, we are indeed deluded. Immigration, Currency and Religion...biggest lies to mankind. So true... ONE world...debunking Immigration, For Us...debunking Currency, In Us...d...

Just a joke

When you're on a journey in a moving vehicle, and your co-traveller snore louder than the bus engine that you can't even hear the sound system in the bus; you'd better adapt to making music out of the noise. #DoWithWhatYouHave #StupidStory © FERT, 2015

Be Vigilant

One day, a wealthy man prepared a delicious meal filled with fried Fish in surplus. So he called on all the Rats in the village, and then told them about the delicious meal he has prepared. He gave this creature small portion of the food while he pleaded with them not to touch the reminder of the food in his house as he embark on a journey. When he returned from the journey, he saw many rats in his house wining and dining, they were eating the food he asked them not to eat. He was greatly saddened by their deed. So he called on the leader of Cat, he narrated his ordeal in the hands of the Rats that he treated well, but repaid him with wickedness. He prayed the leader of Cat to gather the remaining cats help him get justice with, and then empowered to safeguard his delicious meal.  The leader of the cat with the rest of his member did as the man instructed, they killed all the rats. The man was so pleased with brave act of the Cats. He then gave them portion of his swe...

Humans of Lagos Episode 50

Humans of Lagos "Interviewing foetus." The last time I was born in this city, I was welcomed by unkind nurses, fatigued doctor, not so neat a hospital labour ward with no electricity supply. The breeze was even strange, so I had to run away as a still born. My mother conceived me again in the United Arab Emirate when she went on a business cum pleasure trip. I think that I'm lucky, My father is a Norwegian citizen. My mother is trying to secure my future, she will be going to the United State of America to deliver me. I will be a proud US of A citizen. I only hope that I don't get delivered at the Nigerian airport." © FERT, 2015

Humans of Lagos Episode 48

Humans of Lagos 'Live at the funeral parlour.' "Look at the corpse up above me inside this freezing compartment, he is poorer than me and I don't relate with their kinds.  The stupid morgue attendants here are just insulting my personality by putting the wretched guy above me just like their Road Safety counterparts who cleared the road accident that took my life. Those Road Safety officials stupidly packed me among the coward Yoruba tribes-people corpse, the very people I loathed with passion. But, what can I do now?" © FERT, 2015

Humans of Lagos Episode 49

Humans of Lagos "I'm not lazy, but I don't believe that hard work will grant success. I live my live, I spend my earnings on food. I don't make savings, I don't believe in it. I don't do fashion, it's too fake for me to admire. I don't have a vehicle, my tommy is too jealous to allow for any rivalry. I don't have a wife nor child, to me, the marriage institution is not meant for everyone. I give to the less-privileged whenever I feel like, the world is so unfair. Many unqualified people are getting what they need because they have the influence, while the qualified languish in hustle. I laugh always, no dull moment. My girlfriend left, when I told her that our friendship won't lead to anywhere. I only hope that when I die, somebody or some people will bury me.  But if I don't get to be buried, that won't be my problem but the environmental problem of those around my carcass vicinity. © FERT, 2015 ...
