All I know is that the opposite of what I dreamt about is what usually happens angry

At the Nigerisn Army Short Service Selection Board in Kaduna that year, I dreamt and I saw my self in full military regalia... The next morning I totally messed my Interview. And I wasn't shortlisted in the final list.

Months later, I dreamt that I failed woefully and everyone was mocking me. Couple of weeks later, I found an Angel investor for my startup.

These things perplex me so much especially since I detest religion or the notion of an omnipotent God who watch on while evil happens in the world.
if it's the evil that God allows that is your problem, that can be easily explained

OMO... so nah true... grin... na to run oooooo!!!... no go area be that ooo.
Thesame culture with some Igala people that I know. If you toast a married Igala woman/lady or you buy her gift, she must tell her husband. Most especially if the husband is from Imane, Ogwugwu, Igah or any part of Olamaboro, Ankpa, Omala and Idah LGs.

Why do you find it hard to understand.
The gods deal with men whose wife cheat and refuse to report.
Why do you want to run is what i don't understand, do you plan to cheat on your husband?

That's the black man's culture. A wife is only entitled to a husband. A husband is entitled to as many wife he can feed.

Sad that some people believe them till today.

Society has fed lot of crap to our brain.

Animals live their true identity

Not chained by the expectation of society

Eat when hungry

Mate when Hot


Without feeling ashamed

No clergy to place blame

A New born child is a sinner

So says a book that praises murderers

The gods created us nude

Yet unclothedness is a taboo it makes no sense

But we do not want to look different

So we put on a covering

And betray our true feeling.

We hide our true self

And show our false self

We tell children not to cheat

We are no different from hypocrite


Stop the pretence

Break the fence

Speak your unpopular opinion

Though it may conflict with established institution

Be yourself in the face of death

Your killers will oneday loose their breath

It is better to say your mind

Than to live a lie

How will someone else accept you

When you cannot love you

I saw the word 'die' many times but thank God for God.I love that wearing cloth the wrong way and itching of palms,l always believe l will get money and it works.Tivs and Idomas have similar believes in a way.
