From left, BlueAdonis, JamesConco, Chinonye Chidolue and Soul'e Rhymez “Everything has its wonders, even darkness and silence, and we learn, whatever state we may be in, therein to be content” – Helen Keller It was a rainy Friday and the roads were flooded by the heavy downpour.  The ever bustling Lagos roads is seen calm but for a few cars scurrying, many a pedestrian hiding in a sheath from the deluge of showers that seeped abundantly from above.  Inadvertently, a clarion call behooves not too far away from Ojuelegba to this haven wouldn’t take a lifetime exodus but an astute willpower and this unfailing promise to lit the faces of these gems with scintillating smiles and a unrelenting assurance that we are all bound  by the commonwealth of brotherliness and love.  Back view of the students And so, it was just a stone throw to the auspicious gathering, the reticent rainstorms were oblivated and the sun glowed in all radiance of bloom and p...

YOU HAVE WHAT TO GIVE

(An Online Lecture) INTRODUCTION I once stated: “there is no one who does not want to be appreciated for things they do, we only have people that shy away from it.” In the same light I also warned thus: “never overlook the opportunity to appreciate people, it is the smartest way to live. If appreciating people is the smartest way to live; it means to be smart at all, you have to develop the art of appreciation. Unfortunately, a lot of people want to live smart without showing appreciation. Appreciation is the only thing that can spur God into action and this has been seen many times.

Appreciating people most times takes deep research about them and their efforts. Everyone loves to be appreciated, but no one loves to be flattered. However, lack of understanding has caused people to misunderstand these t...
