 2024~Sign Out


Oh 2024!

What a year you have been

Your lows and the highs

The cocktail of your deeds.


Before you signed up your celestial and terrestrial contract with planet Earth,

Your prophecies were enormous 

So were your onomastic system. 

Some named you: Prosperity, Protection,  Healing, Abundance,  Joy, Fulfilment etc

Such names never mentioned: Death, Ill-Health, Pain, Suffering,  Forlronness etc

But you represented all.

The cocktail of your deeds. 


On 1st January, the day you logged in

So many world chaps and nation builders logged in

Where their Maker had invested into their destinies

To live longer than Methuselah

Or to live a Centenary

And to fulfil potentials 

But your reticent attitude extincted them prematurely. 


Some Millennials, Gen Zs and Contemporaries 

Hoped in you

To deliver on your prophetic mandate

To them, but you failed them.

For some, though not a piece of corn dough 

You turned them into one

Through ghastly road accidents (by motorists)

You ground and milled some

Into wasted flours unfit for funeral 

Even some, you turned them into ashes.

Some, you so drowned, or let the Whales swallowed 

Oh, your apostles,  the Sea, Vehicles,  Motorbikes etc

Worked so faithfully for you.

.

That aside,

Many who survived your nuptial celebrations 

Returned with one limb, half ear, twisted jaws, broken ankle and a decoration of bruises. 

You have been  so fateful 

To the people who were so faithful 

To you from birth.

Oh, 2024!

Why have you been both black and white?


My dear 2025,

Receive a full report of your sibling 

Do a review, we indulge you

Scrap, cancel and review the gorry notes

Bring us good tidings 

Let us merry, frolick and enjoy 

To the fill of our souls.


Oh, 2025!

Come comely 

Do not rush yourself

Lest you fail.

But come gaily 

Daily bedighted

With power, prosperity, heaing, progress,  promotion,  good health, long life, joy, peace and unity. 

Your lover stays awake

To welcome you 

To bed

With him in high expectancy. 


Come gently 

Foot your steps on solid grounds

For solid beginnings 

Of solid success. 

We await your soothing caress 

To resonate with our destinies, aspirations, hopes and expectations. 


Dear 2025,

Many are the stars in the sky

Who await your birth

To herald your presence 

To the Sea yonder

And turn your emissary bona fide.


Oh our newest year,

Let the Centenaries, Jubilees, Gen Zs, and Contemporaries rejoice

Greatly at your birth.

At the rendezvous 

To welcome your arrival

Dance to their tunes,

Hear their prayers 🙏, 

Sing along as they sing, 

Meet them at the point of their soul-searching,

As they reflect and meditate

Answer their prayers 🙏 


Happy New Year 2025

THE EROSION OF OUR IDENTITY: A CHANGING TREND OF BASIC PLEASANTLY PRACTICES AMONG THE ANUFƆ

THE EROSION OF OUR IDENTITY: A CHANGING TREND OF BASIC PLEASANTLY PRACTICES AMONG THE ANUFƆ Njakpien, ANUFƆ is your language. Whether you like it or not. LINGUISTICALLY, every language group, the world over, cherishes their basic drivers of their language such the forms of greeting (pleasantly exchanges), and home entry practices etc.  Njakpien,  The ANUFƆ have a rich, highly invaluable way of exchanging pleasantries. Very basic ones at that.  For instance, in the morning, a youngster deferring to an adult may greet squatting:  a) Nja ahin oo, Nbo ahin oo.  Elders may use:  b) Daa i nja, Daa i nbo.  Peers may use: c) Ya kɛrɛ daabiri daari sɛ? In the noon,  d) Nja awo oo, Nbo awo oo. Ya ni wiɛ kɛkɛrɛ n ti sɛ, juma fie ti sɛ, am tana fɛn di? etc. In the evening,  e) Nja ndo oo, Nbo ndo oo. Ya ni naasɔ di? Ya ni kɔnguɛ?  And several others. Very basic, very simplistic. Without ill- intention, we have relegated these forms of exchanges to th...

We are mortals but blessed with divine qualities

Njakpien, We are mortals but blessed with divine qualities.  Yesterday, the linguist of the acquatic realm. Mr. Crocodile, assembled all amphibians to a meeting to decide their new King.  In his usual signature back and forth trudging, he rung his adawuro, passing one settlement and another, both announcing and insulting. "Agoo, all idiots of the realm," he started. As you may be aware, the notorious old King is some few moons away from his grave. By way of preparing a successor, he has, by royal order, instructed me to announce to you of some thumbprint exercise on the seventh day of the seventh moon. Be warned that he will not go into his grave without this exercise being done. Before this time, some amphibians were in positions that the community of amphibians entrusted but they had not met the expectations of the community of amphibians because they elected to listen to a few favourite individuals. They were their all. I mean their all. Not the ones the community of amphi...
