Sweet Palm Wine

West Africans will continue to tell tales of slave trade for many generations to come. As West Africans waded through life in the era of slave trade, evading abductors was priority for Africans that lived in endemic areas. This challenge did not spare them from other challenges life threw at them as West Africans plied for livelihood in unforgiving conditions. Issues such as poverty, absence of roads, absence of schools, lack of power, lack of hospitals and poor farming tools further exacerbated the journey of life for many West Africans.

Conquering the Sahara

Whenever the subject of African development is brought up, a passionate few are quick to name past heroes that promoted the subject. Well, it is time for all Africans to draw from whatever lessons these heroes bequeathed to us, and build on them in our various spheres of influence. Heroes are not only confined to history.

All Africans should be advocates of pan-Africanism. It is regrettable that we have divided ancestral family members and aggregated ourselves rather selfishly within imaginary boundaries of sovereignty, and in some cases, based on foreign prescriptions. These boundaries have instilled in us ideas of greed, intolerance, and resentment.

Awakening Marital Joy

Mr. and Mrs. Desmond were a lovely couple. They had paid their dues through work life and had risen professionally to the peak of their careers. Parenthood was quite successful because the two daughters they have were almost through with university education. However, home had become a regimented routine of early dash-outs to work, late arrivals, frequent travels, light meals, almost no television, brief conversations, and little sleep.

After years of slowly grinding their used-to-be romantic love life into a mechanical and fractious cohabitation, sex had become quite alien to them and they were growing used to not having regular passionate sex. Though in her mid-forties, Mrs. Desmond was still attractive with firm skin and a frame that mirrored her youthful self.

Explore Humanity: Influence, Network, and Partner

The modern professional or career worker needs to make him or herself a distinguished tool for integration whether in the workplace, social, or family circles. This is because it is important for every human being to imbibe some management skills to function efficiently through life. Management skills are no longer a skill set for managers alone but for every human being who can access knowledge. It is often said that good leaders make good managers but not all good managers make good leaders. This means leadership and management can be separated. While many of us may not have the opportunity for leadership, we all need to learn to be good managers. If for nothing else, it is important for us to manage our lives well.

The Human Commodity

Three gentlemen, smartly dressed in black suits and sunglasses, came upon a house. It was a three bedroom bungalow. The house was in the middle of a paved compound and was fenced with brick walls. The house looked abandoned, spooky, and puzzling. They walked around the house taking notes and making references. When they got to the back, three old metal cabinets stood abandoned with a litter of paper lying around them. They thought little of the litter and moved on. Having gone round the house, they stopped at the front door which was ajar and one of them knocked.

The Sanctity of Human Life

It normally takes at least 9 months to cultivate human life through processes peripherally explained by science. Inherent in the process, are deep mysteries that manifest in various ways and continue to leave human kind with more questions. In this whole drama of cultivating life, especially human life, several still ask “when does life truly begin?”

The God Factor of Love

When you look at a mirror what do you see? An image of yourself, isn’t it? But who are you exactly? Have you ever sat down to have some alone time about who you really are? If someone walked up to you and asked you to name five things that define you uniquely, what would you say? How long would you have thought about them? Would any of them have anything to do with love?

I think something common to all of us is love. We all know what love is, and we feel it when it is experienced. Pure love is unconditional and can be perceived even without action. Now, is there usually an intention behind love?

The Long Trek

As dawn broke, he awakened with a heightened level of anxiety. He had trekked several kilometres from a village close to Abuja; the last village a truck had volunteered to drop him. He was seeking the place he believed was his destiny to find. He got up, and rolled up his sleeping baggage; a set of very old blankets he had grabbed from what was left on the bed he slept on for years. He went to a nearby tap and washed his face and rinsed his mouth, after which, it was time to begin a series of actions he had set up to achieve by the grace of God. It didn’t take long before he was noticed. A dissident loitering a few metres away from an Embassy was always going to draw some attention.

The Fruit of the Womb

From the womb of emptiness and nothingness, phenomena beyond human comprehension sparked life. A Supreme Being designed and executed a plan that will continue to remain a mystery even to the best scientists; the creation of space, matter, and time. Did this Supreme Being remodel the earth and put life on it? Are we alone? Did this Supreme Being also create the entire multiverse as we know it from NASA? The human mind cannot execute thought processes beyond the capacity prescribed for it from the beginning. We cannot truly comprehend the magnitude of all the elements contained alongside us in space. But we can control what to believe and how to live.
