In any case, Chief Obasanjo’s opinion cannot sway Nigerians who can easily remember how he endorsed President Muhammadu Buhari, whose administration, he (Obasanjo) now describes as “stressful years for many Nigerians,” during which our nation “moved from frying pan to fire and from mountain top to the valley.”

Ezek:
How My Teenage Son Started This Revolution In Swindon

An Annotated Story To Help In Bringing Out The Leaders In Our Young People

This Is A Project Of ICSA, Premiering On New Year's Day 2023. All rights reserved.



It was a Sunday and we were doing some outdoor laundry after coming home from church. I kept my phone on a little wad of pound bills that I placed on a bench. I also hung some clothing on two metal pipes running from wall to wall.

After about 30 minutes, the breeze began to blow. One of the clothings I adore that hung on the pipes fell off to the dusty floor.

"Pick up that clothing Ezek", I bellowed at my look-alike son. Everyone agrees that we both look alike. But we often disagree.

Instantly, Ezek picked the clothing. I wanted him to come and help me pick up something because I was washing some fabric. Instead, I saw the fourteen-year-old fiddling with the clothing he just picked up.

"Why are you fiddling with the clothes?" I said straight to him.

"To button and fold it up", said Ezekuna matter-of-factly, which got me rather angry at him.

"Come on, do you have to to do that now?" I said with thick criticism hanging in my voice.

"But Dad, you could still have criticised it if I just threw the clothing without folding it".

The protest in the boy's voice was as hot and as subdued as the criticism in mine a while ago. I thought over what he said and kept quiet. He too kept quiet. When I looked quickly at him, he looked guilty a bit.

"Don't worry Ezek, what you said made sense".

"Oh, thanks Dad".

I saw deep respect for me in an inflection of Ezek's eyes just as he uttered that short expression of gratitude. I just knew he meant it.

daboy18:



Hmmm beating my mum never i cannot try that , not even in my dream sorry this your advice is not good

TheLoneCitizen:


You sat down, wiped out your fingers and typed: beat your mother. The most idiotic post of the year.

Shoulder responsibilities and your mother will report your father to you.

yemmit90:


The fact that you declined that stupid idea of beating your mum show how blessed you are to your parent.

The problem is not started today, it has been there even before you were born. No matter what you do now, your parent will never respect your opinion since you are still very young and probably depend on them. I will advise you to let them be until you become independent and take care of your dad.

Also, whenever your mum disrespect your dad without his fault, subtlety show your displeasure/grievance to your mum by ignoring or stop talking to her for days. If she can listen to you, tell her how she would feel if your wife treated you in her present same way she does to your dad.

May God heal your family.

Buuks77:

Hi, it's about the prophet's teachings. It's deeper than you think. I mightn't be able to give you specifics now, but lemme just say those Isis and iswap proponents are the real followers of that prophet's teachings.
I hope you decipher
Cheers
