  1. One time I was at the Airport, and while coming downstairs, heading towards the plane, I saw this woman, like in her late 50s, helping her aged Mother, while struggling to carry her hand luggage. I told her to allow me help her with her box, and she just kept thanking me. Her Mum prayed for me in Yoruba language. We boarded, my seat was behind theirs. The Mum kept turning back to say e se (hope I got that right). I mean it takes nothing to be kind, but I felt really good that I could help them in my own way.

    2. As beautiful as this story sound, it also very dangerous, helping a stranger with their bag in an airport, especially international one has sent people to jail, please don't try it again..

  2. It was a huge shock when I lost my big brother. It was so painful and it did affect the family in a way we didn't recover from his demise.

    We never recover from the effect it caused us.

(He was visiting his family and accidentally passed through my village which had a communal disagreement with his, he had no idea there was a "melee" and planned a surprise visit). Popsy put him in the car boot at night, drove out, luckily no one bothered him. Dropped the guy off.

  14. When I got pregnant few months after graduation, we just finished university. And my then boyfriend now husband started the process for marriage. Only for my FIL to put a stop to everything and declared that his only son is not going marrying me.

    Served with pregnancy in the North, and stayed put there. He got married to someone from their place as wanted by his parents. 5 years after, they divorced. FIL started looking for me, faithful God connected us back here. Today we are married with two more children.
    But those 6yrs were a phase I can't painfully forget, tearful memories.

    Today I and my FIL are 5 and 6, wonderfully so.

  15. I had come first again in secondary school and my father promised to get me a brand new sandals. He had been away for almost a month and I looked forward to him returning that evening. He was so proud of me and wouldn't stop showing my result to his friends.
    That morning he left for work, I was waiting eagerly for him to come back with my sandals... Evening turned to night, then midnight, then morning... I went to school feeling helpless, scared, worried... Why didn't my father returned last night... Just before the long break, I was called into my principal's office, where I saw my cousins, looking sad. I smiled at them but they didn't smile back, I was told to get my bag, I'm going back home with them. I asked what the problem was, but they said nothing.
    A crowd gathered in front of our house, I heard cries of agony, my mother rolling in tears...then it dawn on me, my father is dead! How?
    While at work the previous day, the crane he was working with got stuck mid air, been the supervisor, he came to check what the problem was, while he was working on it, it loosened and was coming down, the people around screamed and shouted his name several times, he didn't move, he didn't hear and the crane came crashing on him. By the time they separated the crane again, he was dead and mangled beyond recognition. The incident happened 4pm... My Aunt received a message from home that day that our grandfather is dead, he died 4am, he was waiting to break the news with her brother(my father), instead she received another shocker, he only brother is dead
    Father died at 4am and son died at 4pm.

    The effect it has on me: chronic commitment phobia, I can't loose another person like that again. I'm 43 and still a virgin, never fallen in love or heart broken.

  17. I remember when I was called that my mother was hospitalized, I ran to see her in the hospital and my sister in-law narrated to me that she finished selling her goods and my aunty (my mum's sister) brought her own so she could help her sell. So on the process of selling her sister’s own my mum started feeling dizzy, thank God she was able to call my brother that came and carried her to the hospital.
    We were still talking when my mum's phone rang and she asked me to help her answer the call. I looked at the name and saw "Chinedu"( my elder brother) not knowing it's "Chinwedu"my cousin. I started ranting immediately that it was mama Chinwedu that caused it oo, how can she be putting pressure on our mother every time, instead of her to sell her market she's always disturbing our mother. Is it our fault that she doesn't have "iru afia"( good luck or so) I was still ranting when my mum managed to tell me "mechie onu nwaa, o bu nwannem ka ina akpari etua" (Keep quiet this child, is it my sister you're insulting like this. I then kept quiet, expecting to here what my brother have to say only for Chinwedu to say "sorry I will talk to her to stop". Omo I looked at the name again and realized I've messed up. Chinwedu my favorite cousin has never called me since then. I don't even know how to start apologizing πŸ™†

    The day I had my first child remains indelible in my mind. Had just woken up from the effect of the anaesthesia and the nurses brought her to me to feed her. She is a full grown woman now, conquering her world. God bless you baby gal for all you do for us.

  22. Loosing my father, he was my everything. I was a teenager also a mother when I lost him. Few minutes for him to die, he looks at me and my junior sisters , he prayed for angels to watch over us bcos he knows that we are on our own, we suffered but we survived. I can never recover from his death.

  23. I will never forget how 419 network from Edo State help my father to ransome for 8yrs.
    There is nothing they didn't do to him.
    Note my father was a no nonsense man, we were all surprised he could fall for such, cos he usually laughs at people who fall for 419, he was not an awoof lover. That was how we knew it wasn't ordinary hand.
    He was their pay master for 8yrs. He halted all his projects. He was working and paying to them. He never cared about any of our needs during this period, rather he would say he was doing it for our own good, cos he was going to get huge returns.
    Everybody in my family talked and talked, we cried, we prayed, nothing we didn't do.
    My father always claimed it was an investment.
    People will think we are rich, not knowing that this 419 network was taking it all.
    It seemed as though they threatened him, his only Brother and cousins talked but he wouldn't be moved.
    Whenever we searched his room or phone when he isn't looking we saw deposited receipts, debit alerts of him sending money into those peoples account. We talked, we even involved security operatives, but they said since he wouldn't give them info they can't do much.
    My mom pleaded, brought Pastors to pray, most nights I would wet my pillow begging God to save him from this situation.
    Until 2020 he realised it was all scam. He finally had a heart attack and he died after spending 1week in the hospital.
    It was traumatic for everyone in my family. We were helpless.
    When he passed, we were pained, but also relieved that atleast he is finally free from all the worries of this world. On his sick bed he even apologised to my mom for not listening to her or anybody, he kept pleading for mercy from God, mom told him its OK, God loves him and knows all.
    This we can never forget in a hurry.
    Wow what a life
