#mumtoldme Clean up after yourself !

Hapu umu nwanyi aka ga akwukwo, E mechia ha ga na bia (Leave women alone face book/school, after school dem go come..)

Which is so true, I look at some my peers that were the players in college either they ended up getting a girl prego which affected their education or they just lost sight of that education... Did my undergrad and Masters back to back, now i get all the time for women, infact na dem dey toast me now when they see ride bobo dey ride, see bobo go school..Nne'm makachukwu e ma ihe..#DALU

;DMomtold M̶̲̥̅ε̲̣̣̣̥ before U̶̲̥̅̊ get annoyed when å person offends you,try τ̲̅ø think of †ЂΞ number of times †Ђå† same person has made U̶̲̥̅̊ happy

#Mum; Smoke weed everyday!!

#momtoldme: you are an eagle and not a chicken, you do not belong on the ground, you belong in the blue skies and the golden sun (I will never forget that. I was about 14 then and I was beginning to doubt myself academically. I think she read it from somewhere just to tell me but the effect has never left me)
#dadtoldme: if anybody beats you brother, go and beat him up. If he is bigger than you, four of you (including my two sisters) should go and beat him up! (my father's recommendation concerning primary school bullies)

...........Just had to bring both my parents into this. I love them both

What else would an Ekiti mother advice her child? ; Face your studies. Education is important in my family, anything less is just. . . . a taboo and a humiliation.

# Mama told :
IGBA ARA LAA BURA - meaning Make Hay while Sun shines
OWURO LOJO - meaning Always make decisions on time
ASIKO KO DURO DE ENIKAN ....meaning Time waits for nobody

# Mama told me:
GBOGBO ASO KO LAA SA LOORUN......MEANING not every bit and pieces of ur life's secret is meant 4 public view / hearing

DON'T BITE THE HANDS THAT FEEDS YOU.

My ma alwas talks to me using our native tongue. Nd she always says #give ur very best at all times, nd remeber always, dat ur d only 1 v gat#

Nkan ti ko to, o ma pada wa seku. meaning...Whats seems insufficient today will eventually become surplus tomorrow !

MamaSaid; Dont ever be afraid or ashamed to cry your heart out, its the very first step to healing and clear thought.

nababagod: When i was young,i am used to doing some peti stealing.one day my mother called me and said i know you always steal from me. while it's ur mother's property. But if u steal from outsider i will be call mother of a thief,pls dont steal from outside.Knowing my mum was a very shy person i swore 2 my self never 2 steal from an outsider. and that was it.today many friends entrust their money in my care.

What a testimony,but do you still steal from insiders?

freecocoa: What a testimony,but do you still steal from insiders?

Like seriously!!

Unfortunately I did not apply the advise that goes thus '' Be careful with women''

That i should be straight forward
and always believe in God

Run away from women

#Mum told me "Hard work doesn't kill"

life_style: #Mumwarned me never to compare my self with another man....

isale oro legbin : please interpret if u can...

The provenance of affluences is unclean.

Mama told me; NOBODY loves anybody and your best friend will backstab you someday!

[coloring=#990000] I am Just not lucky, i never had a mum nor a dad to advice me, lost both of them when i was 13 years. [/color] So those of you who have the privilege to get an advice from your mum, stick to it, not just telling it to us.

must you bring ekiti here? I thought ekiti is the fountain of hard drugs. will it be wise to say ekiti fathers advises their children to smoke their lives out?

#mom told me,akwara ejighi akwukwo. The veins aren't trained.

Don't bring in this sentiment now, Bros. Be strong, you are not alone, not all people who posted have one or both parent alive. Yet they still find their voices and put down something from the cherished memories of the dead parent. You are not unlucky losing them at Age 13, Bro. & I am sure you will remember some words of advice you've heard from them even at that tender age and if you do not. You can do well by making use of the advice here too. They are true words on the Marble.
I am captivated by the thread, is one of the best in recent time. Please follow the thread.

Don't be too forgetful to say "Thank you" or too proud to say "I'm sorry", saying these words will not make you any less important/relevant... The 1st advice was pwetty much easier for me though.

#Whatever u become in life, serve God!

Its not about having the best but making the best of what you have

Ranti Omo eni ti iwo n she

He that knows how to pound will pound inside the Mortar but he that does not know how to pound will end up mistakenly pounding his Laps with it..meaning BE WISE

Always be yourself and say the truth but nothing Truth pays
Remain bless and Keep faith in GOD because LIFE IS VANITY UPON VANITY

GOD BLESS NIGERIA

Here is what my Mum told me - Everyman's success is out there, no man can achieve your own success.
* never compare yourself to anybody, you are unique.
* its going to be better, don't give up, give in and give out.
I'm glad I could contribute my Mum's words amongst these.
I love my Mum more than anything else on earth.
