VILLAGE PEOPLE VS INNOCENT PEOPLE
_VILLAGE PEOPLE VS INNOCENT PEOPLE_
Ages long, the truth behind the village people whose aim is to frustrate the life of innocent people have been hidden from the face of the earth.
On this fateful day, at the coronation ceremony of the new king, Jaiyesimi of Ijogbon Village.
Gbadebo and his witty friends of his was dressed in the regalia of the Yoruba's with beads dancing here and there on every part of their bodies like newly fashioned mascots.
There was a farmer in the village of Ijogbon who was nothing less than a dove. He was calm, meek and intelligent. Little wonder they villagers nicknamed him Omi Tutu (cold water).
His innocency humans being wicked even when you didn't offend them is topnotch. And so, he does all things with a clean hand and a pure heart without any iota of evil. His personality was the smiling type and he was indeed wealthy.
Why did he leave for the city? Gbadebo and his friends asked themselves as they dine and wine with others at the special event. It was like Omi Tutu was sent to the poverty-stricken mansion with flowers of failure surrounding the building.
Fast forward....
Gbadebo couldn't bear pains he felt for Omi Tutu. So, he asked his friends, 'Pals, what could the farmer have done that made him wallow in wretchedness?'
Then they all replied, 'He didn't do anything. The problem we think he faced is that, the village people might have followed him to the city, whereby they vouched to deal with him and also anoint him with the oil of poverty'.
In the tone of their reply, Gbadebo quickly connote that life is not a word cross game but a game of thrones. The dark against the light and village people against innocent people.
This is not to say that both entities do not have a superior. To WIN in life with the superior which is LIGHT is to be clothed with the armour of light (wisdom for life).
Gbadebo then conclude that King Jaiyesimi did not just wake up overnight to be crowned king. It took an entity to place him there. In other words, YOUR ENTITY DETERMINES YOUR DESTINY.
His witty friends stood up from their sit with a toast and shouted, 'Choose light (The Truth) and be crowned king over the dark plans of village people through the wisdom of life.'
Your time of SUCCESS is NOW.

BLOCKCHAIN AND CRYPTOCURRENCY: THE WAY
#AfricaOfMyDreams
Quite a lot of people around the globe are still yet to grasp the kind of disruption that is hitting the world with the advent of blockchain technology. Sad it may seem, but I'm sorry to notify us that this technology will displace many people out of jobs and also place many into jobs.
Many African countries still do not know that there is such a thing called the Bitcoin, not to talk of even having the minutest idea of the broader scope of cryptocurrency or blockchain technology.
The blockchain itself is an automated digital ledger in which transactions are documented. Don't forget that the technology that drives the blockchain is coordinated by a set of mathematical algorithms and encryption techniques associated with cryptography.
Alright, let me take you a bit further to mention about Smart Contracts : which are a set of self-executing contracts pre-programmed on a blockchain.
Now, how would this "simple technology" cause many people to lose their job? Imagine walking into a filling station with no pump attendant, you simply grab the dispensing nozzle and fill your tank. Your charges are instantly calculated, you make payment from your blockchain wallet, the transaction is detailed on the blockchain upon which the account of the filling station runs, then your receipt also gets printed automatically, then you zoom off with your full tank - all of this without a single human attending to you. This happens in most of the European countries and I dreamt of such in Africa soon.
Remember, all these are made possible by Smart Contracts. The programmers of the blockchain must have given specific instruction to cause the blockchain system to work in an automated manner.
The blockchain system is a wallet to wallet transaction system, in which all third parties are phased out of any transaction. The major third party here are the banks.
What that implies is that all it will cost me to send $200000 to a friend in New York is just to have him send me his wallet address (which our banks call account number), I simply enter the wallet address into its right place in my own wallet, then enter the amount of "coin assets" equivalent to $200000 and he gets to receive it at the other end almost instantly!
You'll see now that the conventional system of moving bulk cash into banks, which the cashiers will first count for hours, then pack and repack, after which they document and then transfer through Western Union, Money Gram and all is already phasing out.
In addition, digital assets is known in many quarters as e-currency or cryptocurrency, and it is the 21st currency shift that is presently sweeping across nations which I believe Africa should also drink from its cup.
Cryptocurrency is used for digital assets in which encryption techniques are used to regulate the generation of units of currency and verify the transfer of funds, operating independent of a central bank.
Hence, it means that cryptocurrency serves two purposes:
1. Legal tender
2. Asset storage
Nations all over the world are already transacting with bitcoin, the billion coin and many others. At the moment we have about 728 different cryptocurrencies listed on the coin capital market and what is so amazing is the fact that digital assets appreciate at astronomic rates and this is a good option for such investment in Africa.
Although there are particular cryptocurrencies, such as the bitcoin, that are very volatile: a good investment management precautionary measure applied on them can make them extremely viable spots to put one's money today.
For instance, a bitcoin valued at $0.10 as at 2009 (less than N15) is today valued at about $2300 (approx. N850,000), that is amazing if you ask me! Imagine a person who bought say, 1000 bitcoins for N15000 now worth N850million naira in the space of 8 years! Now, that is how digital asset investment operates.
Beyond the astronomic increase in value however, cryptocurrency is the money of the now and of the future for Africa.
Currency has gone digital and it doesn't take rocket science to understand this! As a matter of fact, in a space of few months from now, when cryptocurrency would have pervaded every aspect of the world's transactional exchange, many of us will get to understand that an expiry date has long been placed on fiat money.
There is yet a digital asset that is of great peculiarity to me - The Billion Coin!
What Makes The Billion Coin So Unique?
1. TBC is the very first cryptocurrency with a sincere and selfless mission to end poverty globally by 2018.
2. It is the only currency that is not in competition with any other currency globally. It is in a class of its own!
3. Its increasing value on a daily basis is not market-driven, the software that drives the TBC daily growth in value is programmed to push its value up by 1%-5% as new members join the community from any part of the world. That is outstanding!
4. TBC is the ONLY currency that only appreciates and NEVER depreciates! It's value will NEVER drop, not even when dollar loses value because its growth is not dependent on any of these other currencies.
5. The ultimate price of one TBC is coming to €1b, no currency has ever achieved that! Hence, even if it means having just 1TBC, just keep it well.
Also, because TBC grows consistently at 3%-5% on a daily basis, it implies that it has up to 150% investment growth in a month. Hence, an investment as low as N100,000 in TBC will appreciate to over 250, 000 in a month and as much as 1million naira in less than 4months!
Ways to take advantage of Digital Assets Investment in Africa for our growth:
1. Create a business out of it using market price speculation: such that you store up when it is cheap and sell when the price rises.
2. Very useful for global purchases in our export and import products.
3. Invest for the future to enhance the development of African countries.
Conclusively, In Africa today, we cannot but assiduously engage in Blockchain and Cryptocurrency ecosystem as it will bring to life the dearth of unemployment among the youths and also boost our economy in various aspects regardless of ethnicity, language, and differences in cultural diversity.
It will help to make Africa a better continent to behold and enhance transformational change in other economic sectors such as agriculture, entrepreneurship, health, investments, technology and also create smart cities and urban development.
If we detest the benefits of blockchain and cryptocurrency in Africa, we will be like someone using an analog phone in the smart phone age.
I dream of a better Africa that channels her strength towards the maximization of these digital assets.

TONGUES AS OF FIRE
The heavens cloud open
Rain of living waters flow,
Pour upon us your Spirit,
For the uncommon to manifest.
Fire like tongues
Come, come with power,
That lives may glow,
Ceaselessly like immortals.
We plead
Holy unctions flow within,
Like the eruption of volcanoes,
We shall shine with Sun of righteousness.
Open the floodgates
In union we come afresh,
To burn like the apostles did,
With tongues as of fire upon our mortality.

THE RICH ALSO CRY
The things I have seen and noticed under the sun is the mesmerizing words that flows out from the ocean of human stomach and the gushing out of waters as Sir Jude weep for his burnt file for the contract he proposed to a shipping vessel manager three weeks ago.
Sir Jude Emeka is the financial auditor of Haven Inspired Inc. He supervises both the internal and external work load of the organization and his performance had earned him a lot of recognition both locally and international.
On this fateful day, destiny brought him in contact with Mr Stephen, the manager of a shipping vessel. He narrated his high performance as a financial auditor to him and would like to have him do contract together with him.
Mr Stephen checked his other clients and saw that none could match the astuteness of Sir Jude. So, he gave in to work with him but on the platter of lie and dishonesty so as to dupe him.
On the long run, business commenced but the inflow of the generated money was taken by the shipping vessel manager, Mr Stephen. Unbeknownst to Sir Jude, he thought he had meet the right person and that was why he put all of his best to the business but it was a futile and failed effort.
He got to know about Mr Stephen dubious acts but it was too late as the thief has gone far away on an Odyssey to search for more better standard of living.
Sir Jude couldn't hold the rivers of water flowing down as cheeks because his entirety has gone and now, he will come back to square one leaving his wife, children and family in great impoverishment.
His oldest son could not bear the rigours of hardwork as he was used to living in luxury. So, he went to his close friend who is a notorious gangster and joined his group. Unfortunately for him, he was given his first task in less than two weeks.
On his way to fulfil his task, he met with disaster and uproar not a distance far from his destination. He can't go back because he had been warned not to come back if he didn't accomplish his mission.
He forged ahead and as he was about to gain entrance into the house he wanted to steal from, the security guard of the community saw him and gunned him down straightaway as he was trying to run for escape.
Death caught him unawares. Putting his family into more gruesome pain for days. Sir Jude swam in the ocean of guilt for weeks till he finally kicked the bucket at last. What a loss for his family!
He left nothing with his wife and daughter but only a word of advice that, "the drive to amass wealth is nothing but a waste of time and to be wise in ones conceit is stupidity."
Alas! The rich also cry in spite of the wisdom, wealth, and women they thought they have. Not knowing that life is for a short time and soon heaven will bid us, "Come home, my creature!"

+ HIV/AIDS: NOT A DEATH SENTENCE +
HIV/AIDS as it's famously called is an abbreviation of Human Immune Virus and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome.
.
It's a deadly virus that penetrates into the immune system and runs into the blood cavity, penetrating deep into the veins, arteries and heart of its patient whereby, if it takes a longer time; it will surely lead to death. Hence, prevention is better than searching for cure.
.
You need to prevent yourself from contacting it and if one already have it, there are ways you can be healed if proper prescription is obeyed.
.
What's my concern with this deadly virus? I ask myself.
.
The concern is that, many have tagged the patient of this virus to be a 'walking dead being' and a communicator of such if they go near them. And so, they castigate, isolate and distance themselves from the carriers of this virus which is totally wrong.
.
At this juncture, I will boldly say that there's no one that is immune to this virus since it doesn't come through sexual intercourse alone but through other several means.
.
Why do you separate yourself from them? Telling them to stay aloof and making them have this sense of nothingness and worthlessness. You can help them see life with the perspective that they can become whoever and whatever they want to become in spite of their ill nature.
.
I'm not praising them for contacting the virus so that they can be cared for. But, I stand to tell you that they never wished to contact it and since it has come to stay, they cannot commit suicide but believe in hope against hope.
.
Conclusively, many of these virus patients died not because of the virus itself, but because of the people around them. These people care less about them and their well being, so they thought of the next option which is death.
.
Please, if you know of any patient with this virus; be dear to them, read and ask questions about the virus from a qualified doctor/nurse and help such patient grow and glow better through such state of emergency. Then, you would have help a soul to live.
.
HIV/AIDS is not a death sentence, dear. Believe in God for your healing and He will heal you according to your Faith. But, going back to your vomit is more deadly.
.
It's not easy to cope with, but you've got a God Factor not a Death Sentence. Glory!

The Unstoppable You In 2018
It's an irrefutable truth, not just fact that the year 2017 has brought joy, blessings, sorrow and impediments to as many souls on earth but for you - it's a journey of unspeakable gifts in Christ Jesus.
In other words, I want to push you to the wall by pushing you to press on. No matter what you might have loosed or achieved this year is nothing to be sorrowful or happy about. It's just a reminder to you that you've not yet started even as a youth. So, you need to forge ahead for greater yields with the strength of your youthful age.
Can I ask you a question.. If yes, "Are you still thinking of this year so much that you don't even want to leave for next year because it has dealt with you haphazardly?" .. I say sorry to your case.
This life is beautiful they say, but at the same time, it is not fair. And so, for you to be the Unstoppable You In 2018, you need to start making Fun Fair from how fair life is to you.
I want you to know that the entourage that has been with me this year and will still go with me next year to make me break through barriers is embedded in the book of Romans 8:18 which says, "For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with *the glory which shall be revealed in us (me)*." - emphasis added.
I strongly believe with no iota of doubt that you been unstoppable next year is in one thing - your YOUNIQUENESS.
Let me ask again, "how younique are you or how far have you gone to score yourself according to your youniqueness?".. The answer matters a lot to your tomorrow.
If you don't know yourself, you can't determine your future. And now, I challenge you to take the bull by the horn and see into your future (Vision 2020).
In conclusion, to him/her that desire to be unstoppable in 2018, you will need extraordinary carefulness and smartness to dive through the storms of life successfully next year.
Nekabari GodzBoi will say, your future is certified gold. With this, I leave you in God's hands - Joshua 1:8.
Thanks for reading through. God bless you and see you at the apogee next year.

LOVE IS A MIRACLE
My love is a miracle
Its feelings are inexplicable
Beautifully white like a dove
Flying over my lover's cove.
Yes, a lovely miracle
Painting in me a circle
Of undiluted colours of life
Telling me to give an high-five.
Many of us hate love miracle
Yet, we climb towards its pinnacle
With our eyes closed
But our hearts are stylishly opened.
My love is a miracle
Breaking the errors of the knowledgeable
With the hammer of truth
Miraculously growing as a lovable fruit.
Its feelings are inexplicable
Beautifully white like a dove
Flying over my lover's cove.
Yes, a lovely miracle
Painting in me a circle
Of undiluted colours of life
Telling me to give an high-five.
Many of us hate love miracle
Yet, we climb towards its pinnacle
With our eyes closed
But our hearts are stylishly opened.
My love is a miracle
Breaking the errors of the knowledgeable
With the hammer of truth
Miraculously growing as a lovable fruit.
