Clean Hands And Dark Hearts.

Clean hands and dark hearts.

The one acting as a friend might not necessarily be a real friend. If only we humans can see beyond the faces then we would understand that the smiling one is not usually a happy one.

The fact that you see someone as your best friend does not mean that you are their best friend. A handshake usually comes with a motive but what motive? It could either be a harmful one or a friendly one but the truth is both come from a "friend".

The easiest way to catch a man is via a close ally like a family member or a friend. Jesus Christ was sold out by Judas, one of his trusted disciples. If Jesus Christ can fall easily to such betrayal then who are we, ordinary humans?

Look around you, anyone you see as your enemy today was once your best friend. In other words, your friend today is only an enemy in training. For an enemy to succeed in their plans, they require some information as a weapon which can only be provided by a "friend".

We now live in the world where a religious leader might turn out to be an armed robber or a drug dealer, a brother or sister turned out to be the one holding onto our progress in life.

Check it before you trust that "friend". Because that drink is in a bottle doesn't make it wine.

The Story Of Two Friends – Ade & Emeka And Their Quest For Success.

The Story Of Two Friends – Ade & Emeka And Their Quest For Success. Both Ade and Emeka were born in the digital age i.e. in the 90’s! Those who were born before this period had to go extra miles in achieving their aims in life, access to data and information were very limited and technology wasn’t advanced enough to aid individual desires – that is not the same for the 90’s kids. They both attended same high school and were neighbours in Rukuba Barracks in Jos where their fathers are stationed as soldiers serving the nation. Emeka’s father was transferred over to Jos from Enugu and Ade’s father was transferred to Jos from Lagos, the boys were very young when they had to move to Jos with their parents. It was so quick and easy for them to form friendship; they are not just neighbours but newbies and non-locals in the barrack where majority of the soldiers are local men from Lanagtang, Wase, Jos, Pankshin, Barkin Ladi, Shendam, Mangu etc. within the state. As they ...

The African Approach to Education and its effects vs The Western Approach

The African Approach to Education and its effects vs The Western Approach As you read this piece, I have absolutely nothing against securing certificates - I have several of them myself. There is nothing wrong in chasing certificates, but a lot is wrong when you refused to get educated along the line and ignore local factors in the process. Obviously if you can afford the expensive pursuit then that’s acceptable. However, many are paying through their nose to get these certificates at the expense of chasing their passion and building a career out of it. I work in the finance sector and in the last decade, my direct managers have been between the ages of 26 to 35. In most cases, I am older and wherever I have an older boss, they have been in that position for a long period of time. This is what is happening in the west, people are getting on the ladder of workforce immediately after high school or college and in the process, they are building a massive network ...
