 OUR KNIGHT ARMOR  By: Mallam S.A. Sanusi Only a tree with ripe and valuable fruits would be stoned at and forced to provide food for man. “ It was once advised to a mango tree to always bow when there is a serious storm just as a palm tree does.”   Literally that wasn’t about just mango tree and palm tree other than trying to make us understand only those who accept the will of Allah strictly will progress.   Quoting from our president speech on June 12 His Excellency Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR “ He who can’t stand the pain of failure doesn’t deserve the joy of victory...”     They’re certain people who also want to be called a leader but have very little or no qualifications to make a good leader.

 THE PLACE OF A MOTHER By: Olufadi Balarabe Ayuba. Let her know the day she was born nakedly beautiful with tears of joy rolling down her stunningly soft cheeks.  Let her know the day she had enough words to say but could only speak through the inexhaustible care of her beloved mother.  Let her know those days she could not by herself take some walks down the road, but could comfortably tour the entire city tied on her mother's back. Let her know those days when she had to cry all night before she could answer nature's call, except lullabies were sung to ease her trips.  Let her know the days she couldn't bathe herself, compelling her mother to wake up early, warm the water, and ignore her refusal to take a bath every morning!  Let her know the day she couldn't do makeovers to beautify herself, as her mother took center stage to apply "Dusting Powder" to introduce the beauty of her Darling Princess to the world.  Let her know the days when all others had fo...
