Sorry no donation from me

Ka le eleyoro lo naa ka to wa f'abo f'adie.

I am done with these fake ass celebrities, now i wanna talk to OJB himself and the likes.

Silver and gold i have not but even if i get *screaming* I WILL NOT GIVE.

Igbesi aye ti e ngbe ko ye ki won saanu yin ti e ba ni isoro. I have read comments from people who knew OJB and how reckless he lived.
Una dey think say pple no dey look una? Yes you earned good money as a producer/singer and you don tey for the industry. But you don use everything drink and carry undergrad oloso finish. Dem dey see you wella for chitta-your igbo joint. I even hear say you get more than one wife. See as everything come be now?

Sooner or later dem go say make we come contribute to treat Olamide when im get cancer- e dey smoke like railway now una dey hail am. Badoo!!!
Later dem go come say Dbanj get HIV and he need for money for treatment. Na stripper e take do him b/day celebration recently in SA o, una dey call am big boy. Eja nla!!!
Abi se na Tonto Dike i go contribute money give when i hear say she don crase finally? She's abusing drugs now everybody dey shout POKO BABY!!!

I mean if you people's impact in the society is a positive one we no go mind, but una don damage the lives of our youths finish with your useless songs and lifestyles. So ki wa ni anfani orogbo yin? A pa ko l'awe. A je o koro. A tun ko igi e jo ko se fi da'na.

As you lay your bed na so you go lie ontop am.

Nigerians are suffering. They wake up 4am to go to work and come back at 10pm only to earn N35k in a month! Na these same pple una expect to pay una hospital bills, buy coffin and pay for una funeral- after they paid attending your shows, paid to fund your multi-million naira endorsements, paid to buy your records but you squandered the money?!!! Se e fe pa mekunnu ni?

Like what one of my bros will always say- "eniti o ba fe ku ninu yin ko ku o. KO KAN AYE."

Sorry no donation from me.

The Industry Millionaires

OJB is battling with a kidney problem. A donor has been found and he is in need of $100k (N16m) to carry out the operation.

Oya na all of you big boys in the industry come out and help your colleague o. Don't wait to enter studio to sing tribute song o. We no go buy am. Na all your songs dey mention say una get stupendous wealth, oya help your brother.

Whizkid (wey say N500k na chicken and chips money for am) o ya come help your brother. We know say "your money and their money no be mate". Omo jaiye-jaiye, No buy another N50m Porsche. Save a life...you know this man's impact in your carreer.

D'banj and his $50k watch, $20k suit no look your brother make im die o. Eja nla open your Versace wallet.

Iyanya you just sign N60m contract with MTN come out come help. All we need now is your change not your waist.

2face abeg come spend some of this Dubai money o. Na this man produce the song wey lauch you - 'African Queen'.

Don Jazzy and his N60m Porsche, abeg drop something.

Davido (OBO), you don get enough gold chains o. Abeg save a life!!!

P-square and dem mansions and jet, biko drop something for your guy o.

Banky W, Eldee, Dr Sid, Olamide, Wande coal, Timaya, May D, Burna Boy, Ice price, MI, D'Prince - na all of una dey sing say una dey swim inside money o. No allow this man die o. If una no drink Champagne for 1 weekend una no go die o. Abeg gather money help this man.

We only need prayers from 9ice, blackface, faze, Idris, Tetula, Terry G, Lord of Ajasa etc. Nothing more.

All of you wey i mention, if una fit contribute N1m each money don complete o be dat o. Make una no expect say na the public go contribute this money o. Public wey dey earn N35k a month ....we no get o!!! Mekunnu no get money o!!! Igboro o rerin at all.
If this man die...shame on all of una. Make none of you sing say you don blow or you are balling again o.

Lastly, i want advise una ontop all these reckless spendings and lifestyles wey una dey live. Se una see now? Una go dey consume alcohol like say na water...dey smoke like say una be first born of sango. No savings yet una health dey deteriorate. Na only last week i talk this thing o when whizkid crashed im Porsche.... see e don dey happen.

Be wise and guided. E f'eyi kogbon o.

Faith:Unshakable trust

Ohun ti enia ba nla koja ni orin ti yio ma ko.
Sugbon igbagbo nikan lo le korin ninu iponju wipe "ki yio si nkan"

Faith is not measured by results. Faith simply means unshakable trust. That is, regardless of the outcome and circumstances, your song remains unchanged.

Job 13:15- "Bi o tilẹ pa mi, sibẹ emi o ma gbẹkẹle e, sugbọn emi o ma tẹnumọ ọ̀na mi niwaju rẹ̀."

Talk is cheap

Talk is cheap. Believe only what you see.
No be every big man be big man.
Be wary of anyone that approaches you with this attitude of 'I own the sea'
They are bastard users! Don't fall victim. They have no conscience. No morals. No principles. They lie for a living.

**I've got 7yrs of experience (and still counting).

Omo jaiye-jaiye

I thought these guys would have learnt their lessons after Dagrin's incident and desist from living reckless lives.

Heard Whizkid crashed his Porsche...i saw the pics and the car was a total wreck.
Don't they have pple advising them abi? So a car worth btw $75k-120k (depending on specs) just vanish like dat? And some pple are hailing him that na small change, e go buy another one!!! What a life! Se bi a se nlo owo niyen?

Is drink-driving now a way to show you are living large?
Se omo ire kan ma n rin kiri loru ni?
These are the sort of pple who get huge endorsement from these big companies as their ambassadors. Are these worthy role models?

Small time una go dey cry say una don loose a gem. Which gem? Una sabi meaning of gem? Una go dey call am legend. Una know the meaning of legend?
Small time dem go get some sickness dem go com dey beg pple for donations and FG to pay their hospital bills after dem don blow their money finish. Dem get small change now na to dey behave like fools.

Ask Mike Tyson o
Ask Evander Hollyfield
If u no sabi those ones, see our brother Amokachie or Danny Wilson.

Song wey dem dey sing sef no fit carry dem for the next 5yrs....so when everything dry up nko?

Me won't shed a tear for anybody o. To ba ya e ma ni mo daju.
Life to me is based on decisions and facing the consequences.
Eni to ba fe ku ko ku o.

In a proper country, his alcohol limit should have been checked and charged for dangerous driving while drunk if found to have been over the limit. You let them off, they repeat the same. Remember say no be only idiot like him dey use the road o....so why allow him to put other careful drivers at risk?

Ise kii p'enia, ayo gangan ni killer.

Shiooooo!i

Raising or lowering the bar?

Jamb cut off point si ma di 30marks. In this era of BB, twitter, FB, 2go. E ti mo nkannkan.

Who wan go skool again when u can pick up the mic and sing "Na na na na-na na na" and blow big enough to buy Porsche.

Who wan read again when you can open free twitter account and easily tweet ur naked pix and baba olowo go invite you come Abuja from there to Paris and London.

Why you wan dull yourself dey read book when you can go to the gym, rip body badly, get a DJ to cook a beat for you, get on the stage and comot shirt begin seduce all the babes and you have a sold-out show in London.

I wonder why Ministry of Education never realise say nobody get time for Jamb again.
J A M B in this age and time? When all you need is a laptop and format- just 1 hit and you can set Oniru on fire?

If at all it's compulsory to enter 'ogba' dem no dey settle again? Mschew......

Abeg next story jawe.....!

'Ko pe odun mefa ti kiniun ti wa lori aisan, aja ko le ma ran si lati bere bawo lara re ti se'.
Regardless the bad patch one might be going through, there are still certain things one would consider as insulting.

It's not a matter of arrogance, it's about knowing your self-worth.
Ma je ki awon isoro ti o n la koja pa laakaye e re. You might need to make compromises in some areas just to pass through the hard times- that is absolutely fine, but never allow it to take away from you the power of choice.

Isoro ma n mu iwosi wa ni- ma gba!

Haves : Go dig my farm and then come and eat your fill.

(After im finish the haves give am little food)

Have-nots: But this is too little for me. Can i have some more?

Haves: Come back tommorrow and dig my farm then i give you more.

Have-nots: Abeg give me some skin make i cover myself i am cold.

Haves: First go and shear my sheep after that i'll give enough to cover you.

(After im finish the haves give am small skin)

Have-nots: But this is enough for me. Can i have some more?

Haves: Come back tomorrow and shear more sheep and i'll give you more.

Have-nots: You are a crook

Haves: You are lazy

Have-nots: You are only lucky because you were born into wealth

Haves: You are simply full of excuses

Wetin man dey find na im dey turn am to slave.
Only a thin line seperates these 2 families of the world- DESIRE.

£1 Please!

I think i'm getting obssesed with £1coin. I love all its features, from the colour to the ruggedness and it has now become a collector's item for me.
If you have any you are not in need of just toss it my side. Thanks.

The 'DJ'

I used to be a 'DJ' at this pub/restaurant in 2005.
It is not the usual DJ you are used to o...this na special one. The job duty is plate washing which is similar to how djs spin their hands on the turntable.
If you want to tush up the profession, you call it Kitchen porter.

I pass through this place everyday and each time i look towards the building it reminds me of where i started from (infact this wasn't the beginning of my story in this country- i'll save that for another day). *Iyen tun badder* (in Davido's voice).
However it just occurred to me this evening when i was held up in the traffic right infront of the building to take a pic and share with everyone.

Moral of the pic:
- Listen, there's always a place of humble beginning. Never despise this.
- Every huge forest started out with a tree. Never be too big to start small.
- Wherever you find yourself, no matter how diminishing the role you are given is, try to do your best.
- No matter how young your boss might be to you, be respectful and obedient. Ko si bi igimu alagbase se gun to, eniti o gbese fun ni oga e.
- Don't act like a big man when you are not. This is why it's difficult for some people to mention where they work and the nature of their job. I ain't saying packaging no good o but be real. Oun naa ni alaanu se jina si elomiran.
- As long as the job put food on your table, be proud of it. There is dignity in legitimate labour, no matter how menial it might be. Eniti o jale lo b'omo je.

When you do all these things, providence will reward you in due course of time. Olorun ri inu gbogbo eda and He knows when you are matured enough to move up the ladder.

If this is the position you are at the moment and you are getting weary, discouraged or too ashamed, i am here to tell you to FORITI. I am not saying be SATISFIED, but for now endure and be diligent.
If you cannot be in charge of little, don't expect to be put in charge of many.
Life is in stages- ko se sare gun o. You need to pay your dues.
Eda ti ko ba ni itan kii pe tan.

I am not THERE myself. I am still striving.
I have just left a stage. I am waiting for the next.
I am never satisfied to rest on my oars, but i am contented and patient enough to painfully climb the ladders all the way to the top.

Tradition vs Technology

(He came from England to become the king in his home town)

Kabiyesi: Oloye, have you sent messages to all the neighbouring towns owing taxes that we are coming to wage war against them?

Oloye: Kabiyesi, we have sent for the Oluawo to prepare the àrokò. He's working on it.

Kabiyesi: What is that? What rubbish are you talking about Oloye? Don't they have facebook accounts? You can't send them whatsapp message? What of BBM? What stupid àrokò are you talking about?

The Blame Game

"Wón ní ká pa enu pò ká bá olè wí, èyín tun bu onínkan wípé ó se gbe síbè."

Blaming others is a behaviour we all picked up from our childhood whenever we wanted to escape punishment from parents at home or teachers in school. This behaviour sticks to us well into our adult lives, this time around we blame others to preserve our self-esteem and pride.
A lot of us do it. We blame others to feel good.

Blaming others is like drinking a slow poison. It destroys slowly and it has no cure.
This is how it works: Blaming others PREVENTS YOU FROM LEARNING AND GROWING.
Once you feel something is not your fault, then you don't see no reason to do anything differently. Which means, there is a high chance that you'll repeat the same mistake in the future that will result to more blame and more blame. This turns into a lifestyle that will one day end badly.

Not only is this behaviour capable of ruining you personally, it also destroys your relationships with people around because they can see through your dishonesty which you are trying to veil. This is a big turn-off!

You think taking the blame will make you weak and give others the chance to mess you about, but that's usually not the case. Taking responsibility actually gives you the strength to turn negative consequences into positive ones. Taking the blame for anything you are responsible for shows you are a strong character and not a coward. Only cowards hide! Once you have owned up to your fault, then everyoneelse are kept quiet because there's nothing more to say. Unlike when you are trying to be defensive which exposes you to further attacks.

Taking responsibity improves your credibility, increases learning, and solidifies relationships because people see you as trustworthy and sincere.
Taking responsibility transfers the energy which would have been used in playing the blame-game, to actually solve problems and become better.

Taking the blame does not mean you are weak.
Taking the blame does not mean you are a failure.
Taking the blame means you know that mistakes are part of life and only by accepting and learning from these mistakes can one grow.

Until you quit blaming others you can never learn and become better.

Life is governed by principles and one of such is the principle which i describe as ACTIONS/CONSEQUENCES. This simply mean that every action or decision you take has a corresponding consequence. You cannot escape it; principle aye ni. I am not talking about State laws which some powerful people can circumvent. This principle of life is no respecta of persons or positions; It will catch up with you.
This principle does not have regard for age no wonder you see some adults paying dearly for the wrong doing of their teens.
If you do not know this then wa fumble.
If you think because of your position you are excempted, so o wa n behave anyhow- o ti fumble o.
If only so many people understood this principle maybe they would have done things differently.
If only some people understood this simple principle maybe they would have been more careful and not reckless.
This principle does not just become activated suddenly. It gives several oppurtunities to make amends. It gives time to reconsider your way. It warns. It sends different people across your way to counsel, preach or educate you.
But once you have wasted all your given chances to change, this principle visits you with full consequences of your actions. AT THIS POINT LADIES AND GENTLEMEN, HELL HAS NO MERCY LORO YI O. KO SI ÈRÒ!
So how many chances do you think you have to get things right? Don't go thinking every decision of life comes with several oppurtunities. Some are just once and the effect of such decision if wrong can be devastating.
So why don't you make it a point of duty to always consider the consequence before you do anything.
The time you are most prone to error is when things are OK with you. When you are comfortable you feel ontop of the world and think too highly of yourself. Sometimes you forget you are mortal...wà wá bere si ma behave like you are immortal.
Take a look around you and see examples of stars who got gassed up with fame, leaders who became power drunk and successful people who felt their money can bail them out of anything. See how they were crushed when the consequences of their past visited them. Some lost all the fortunes they have laboured for. Some died shamefully. Some are still alive but reduced to nothing.
Iwo to nfi wàdùwàdù lo ile aye; o ya rora se.
Iwo ti eti re di si ikilo, ti inu re koro si ibawi; o ya tun ero re pa.
Iwo ti o ngbe aye YOLO; you are very right- You live only once but make it count. Don't live it with regrets.
You cannot live life on your own terms.
