"DELICIOUS EGUSI" 2

Pleasures can be very expensive but a discerning mind knows how and where to cut his suit according to his affordable and available cloth. A delicious egusi can be "condimented" within and beyond our means: depending on how many of the scarce national cake you have accrued. A mind that knows that real wealth is in your wants not exceeding your means would be wary of condiments that are unreasonable.'

A meal has a way of deepening our hope: for a vested stomach won't mind the empty pocket but projects its relishing palate to a visualized better morrow and hopeful pocket. Delicious egusi can fester our religiosity because we hope. Therefore we humble ourselves as prototypical Omoluabi the ethical person. Yet we decry our pettiness as against our leaders’ largess.

Haven't you realized? Humility is a religious strong-preach but an economic fall point. Economics as a study starts from obvious scarcity and pretentious values not designed for humbled market. We suffered and we are subjugated to our thinned-out delicious egusi yet we are humble religiously to leaders who loot us economically. Religious measure can hardly salvage an obvious economic knot just as prayer without requisite action can be a waste of breath (deux ex machina is more fictional than real).

We need to redefine ourselves: revamp our values. Government is no one's sweat but the totality of our submitted rights. No geographical space carries a name of a nation or a name of a government: we nomenclate it so. We need to stand tall and stop respecting those who steal public funds.

We need to save the future from further guillotine.

'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

Weekend of the Champs and Cramps

Champs do the winning and the cramps give us whining. Champs get the points and the cramps the pains. Liverpool started the weekend like a proper champ that they are. Sallah like the coming festival stood out in the game with two solid goals. The champ of the encounter, Bournemouth burned Chelsea with a lone goal. Is Lampard's ride changing fortune? No winning is permanent, obviously. Manchester United was saved by Greenwood. While one youngster was instrumental to his team's performance, another one ( Moise Kean) that entered as a sub was later subbed off because he looked knackered. Champs and Cramps. Be and the Wannabes! Talking of the Champs and Cramps, Gunners were gunned down. Decimated beyond reparation in the first half. De Bruyne ricocheting shot couldn't be stopped resulting into the first goal and Sterling stellar placement was also conceded, second goal. The third was still De Bruyne ruining the Gunners with a curvy shot that beat the defenders wi...
