The 111th Dapchi Girl

The other girl heard a yell. A screech. No angel to any rescue. She watched how several years of prayers and cares fizzled to naught. Her mates were all frisked away. Then she understood principalities. All mores, all norms lost their polemic morality. She knew the "power of power" where there were no angels to shield the innocence.

The other dapchi girl in nation where children lost their innocent smiles to abduction, war, bomb and neglect, where being an orphan is rite of passage, and children terrorized into an adulthood.

The other dapchi girl has a final curtain drawn on happiness, as fear of insecurity she has witnessed. She won't understand a concept of government nor the pledge in any anthem but the idea of power principalities. She saw fathers' cowering and mothers' screeching and soldiering not effectual and the vices winning.

The other dapchi Girl might have seen another "morality of principalities."

'Ise kekere, owo n la' Less Work: More pay

Actually, that idiomatic expression as often employed in our prayers " Ise kekere, owo nla" can be understood from different perspectives. This is not to decry our elders. They have given varieties of proverbs to suit needs and moments beyond what a motivational book can condensedly give. 'Ai'ni arojinle ni mu iyawo pe oko re ni were nitori pe omo re omo were ni, oun gan fun rare iyawo were ( It's only a lack deep reflection that will make a wife call her husband a mad man because as such her child is the child of a mad man and she is a wife of a mad man). The focal point is the effect this idiomatic prayer has wrought on our social mentality like the musical cliche that has also turned into another idiomatic expression: " Mi o lè wa ku, mo ti gbiyan ju, Moti se iwon ti mo lè se, alubarika alubarika nikoko" ( I can't over-exert myself. I have given it my best shot. God's blessing is significant). That rendition always lowers determinat...

True True Mark of a Champion: Both Liverpool and Manchester City Came from behind to Claim Maximum Points in their Matches

Klopp called his boys mentality monsters and of course they are. Coming from behind three times in a week to secure victory was massive. Aston Villa got the first goal and they intended to sit on it. They pushed and held forth till like 80 minutes into the game when Robertson equalised and Mane got the most dramatic winner at the tick-tock of the last minute. They are the king of comebacks. No one does it better than Klopp guys. #AVLLIV On #MCISOU James Ward Prowse tucked a rebound from Stuart Armstrong strike to put Sothampton ahead. City heaved and puffed before they could get an equaliser. Until Kyle Walker secured a goal and later assisted Aguero for the winner. Kyle Walker, the savior. Guardiola would love to be ahead but Klopp this time would not be willing to relinquish such lead. It unfolds we follow sha! --toonday

Arteta Cashed-out on Ole as Pepe and Papa each scored to Whittle the Witless Devil to 2-0 Defeat

Arsenal euphorically got an early lead. Pepe peppered some ball into the net 7 mins early like against Chelsea. Manchester united after the first goal seemed hole-d up.James no space to run. Martial finding footing and fortune. Rashford foggy. Arsenal: ecstatic in the first half. Pepe scored a goal. Dribbled well. Hit the post. Papa scored the second goal. The second half began. Oezil so far was unpredictably unstoppable to the opponents. He simplified passes with wit and unbelievably covered more distance than anybody. Xhaka tidier. Torreira was combatively intelligent: winning tackles like birthright. David Luiz "Puyol" the defence for Arsenal. Manchester fans couldnt find Rashy nor Martial as Torreira has happened to their creativity. Fred tried his freddie best but his last freekick was so worse bad that the commentator wondered whether the ball was still in North London. Arteta came with his face but a brain of Guardiola. Fans ask who is at the whee...
