"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 

"Manchester United Taking points from the Rich and giving to the Poor" as Watford recorded a second win

Manchester United has proven their mettle against top-table teams getting points like its their birthright but floundered against small teams. Ismaila Sarr and Troy Deeney's strikes earned Watford their second win of the season. Meanwhile, Greenwood and Lingard's misses cost them United. Pogba came and outshone others. Yet no one could convert his lofty passes. Ole is building something. But who has the patience for this "constructor"? Some god whispered: Solskjaer - Living off 1999 De Gea - Living off reputation James - Living off August Lingard - Living off his passport Man United Goal Difference - Living off Chelsea #WATMUN What does next game bring? -toonday
