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.
