Safety is Everything by Omoruyi Uwuigiaren

Safety is Everything

At this point in my life.

The only thing that matters now is the safety of everyone around me.

I am not Superman.

I am not James Bond.

Though sometimes I call myself iconic names to boost my morale and stay positive. It's hard not to wake up sad in this part of the world.

If the government is not making you sad, you should go for Thanksgiving.

To guarantee success in Nigeria, you need more than what any motivational book can offer.

Most books speak in detail about attitude, financial discipline, self control, financial intelligence, and many more.

But most books hardly discuss SAFETY. They consider this topic or subject already taken care of by the government.

Today, I am telling you. If after you understand everything you need to be a successful person in a dreadful country like Nigeria and you don't put your safety as your number one priority, you are likely not going to live to enjoy the fruits of your labor.

Protect yourself.

Protect your business.

Protect everything that matters to you.

In Nigeria, SAFETY is everything.

From the novel entitled, "Beyond Imagination" by Oladele Dada.

Oladele Dada. It was dawn. The chilly dust-laden wind formed dense fog on the road. The rocky hills and the tall trees made Ajewole a beautiful town. The birds sang aloud, and clanging of stainless dishes in the neighbourhood suggested human activity was at its peak. Humans had begun to move to their various destinations. Adunni had trouble with child bearing and her husband was worried. Then she booked an appointment with her doctor. After several tests, the doctor suggested the couple be patient and that she will surely get pregnant. Not long after, Adunni was pregnant. After several months, Adunni was delivered of a boy. The women in her neighbourhood, alongside the children, sang and danced to her home to celebrate with her. Her husband, Fredrick Olagbade, thanked the Lord and named the boy Juwon. As Juwon grew, his mother had another child whose name was Olakitan. Juwon was intelligent and his parents were struggling to make ends meet. As poverty st...

Born to Win by BISHOP DAVID O OYEDEPO

My journey into the beautiful world of writing began one cold evening the wind blew with vengeance. A pastor visited my humble home with a little book written by Bishop David O. Oyedepo of the Faith Tabernacle Church, Ota, Nigeria. After going through the little piece that was as good as gold, I told the friend that few days would be enough for me to bring a little book to life. The Pastor who is as dark as the midnight thought I was a windbag. He said such endeavor would make me a drudge in no distant time. As soon as he left, I went to work and I am still in the business of writing. For more than two decades, Dr. David O. Oyedepo, has been part of the current renaissance sweeping through the African continent. His faith-based teachings have transformed millions of lives. Called with a specific mandate to liberate mankind from all oppressions of the devil, Dr. Oyedepo is the presiding Bishop of the Living Faith Church Worldwide, with a network of churches all over Nigeria and most...
