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 ...

EXCERPT: From the unpublished story, "Jesse the Bear" by Omoruyi Uwuigiaren

It was cold in the winter. So cold that everyone had to stay indoors. Jesse, an old bear was indoors too.  Each passing day, the bear would move near the window to check if things had improved.  The reason for the constant check on the window was clear. Jesse had eaten all his supplies. He had little or nothing left to eat and he was hungry.  Anything would do.  Frozen fish. Flesh of dead animals preserved by the cold weather would come handy.  The only danger facing the bear to go out and hunt was the weather.  He could be trapped in the snow while hunting. This could be bad. Jesse could die while he hunts for food under such a bad weather.  Waiting in his hole wasn't a good idea too because hunger could kill him.  One thing was certain. The bear had to eat. He needs to feed and stay alive.  What could Jesse do? One quiet morning, it was snowing and Jesse was going to die of hunger. The bear was so hungry and could barely move.  Suddenl...

SHORT STORY: Before it is Too Late by Omoruyi Uwuigiaren

It is expensive to raise good children.  But the price of living with bad children is eternal.   It is expensive to raise good children. But the price of living with bad children is eternal. Many parents, especially in Nigeria focus attention on their children’s grades and extracurricular activities, such as by making sure kids study, do their homework, and if things are not going as planned, they will likely tip or bribe. The essence of this is to get good grades and certificate. While this move can easily secure the future, the price of not touching every aspect of the child’s life can come back to haunt the family. When a family is in pain, the society bears the brunt.   It’s a vicious circle. It bites deep and robs many of happiness. The pain never ends and will only rest when the victim walk into silence. Everyone is served the poisoned chalice and the bread of sorrow goes round. Sometimes it comes like a truckload. The weight of which could sink a ship.   W...

EXCERPT: Dark Magical Papyrus. An Ancient Egyptian Thriller by Mounia Lakehal Meribout

  Thebes, Egypt. 2022 B.C. Standing on the balcony at dawn, Neith was looking at the rare white clouds floating in the sky. Sirius, the sacred star, was shining bright on the horizon; it was the first month of the season of the inundation, first decan, the first day. From the big propriety, Neith was able to see the beautiful winding Nile which was expected to flood soon.   Neith was a nineteen-year-old housemaid living and working at a Nomarch Menes domain. Devoted and possessing a good temper, everybody at Menes’ house liked to deal with the young Neith. Her position of the lady Nomarch’s first maid required full-time attention and a great sense of anticipation, and Neith was perfectly succeeding at fulfilling her tasks. Work was something important to Neith, and being at the service of Menes’ wife, Satamon, provided her with a lot of it. The young maid was responsible for her meals, her baths, and every single thing the mistress might need.   The morning was q...

BOOK REVIEW: Ogaba and the Enchanted Cave by Obande Sunny Jack

  Ogaba and the enchanted cave Ogaba and the Enchanted Cave is a quite easy-to-read yet elegant prose targeted for pre-teens and early teenagers. The vocabulary is concise, adequate and fitting for that demographic. Perhaps what is more endearing about the text is its capacity to weave timeless human values into the narrative while placing premium on them. Values such as hardwork, cleanliness, politeness, cheerfulness, wisdom, and the like are rewarded when being practiced especially by children. For example, Ogaba’s cleanliness and wisdom fetches him liberty from the Ojujus. Worthy of note is the environmental consciousness of the writer who brings to the fore the geography, flora, and fauna typically obtainable in the middle belt of Nigeria such as the great Benue River, the Cattle and nomads, as well as the vegetation of the place. His love for plants, especially flowers comes out more vividly. The writer himself is not new to the craft of children’s literature. In fact, he ...

SHORT STORY: Nowhere to Hide by Omoruyi Uwuigiaren

I went into the printing press and I have to tell you that it was the best press I have ever seen in my life. It was beautiful. There were customers. There was help on the floor. One of the staff approached me. He greeted, “Good evening sir.” Smile paraded his face.  “Good evening, young man,” I replied, beaming with confidence. “Where is your boss? I came for my books. Are they ready?” He shifted his weight to one leg. He smiled, and threw out a question, “Are you Mr. Robert?” “Yes!” I nodded affirmatively. “My boss is not in the office but he left a note for you!” He handed the letter over to me and moved to one side. Without wasting time, I browsed through the piece. In a couple of minutes, I was done. I let go a mighty heave, raised my head and turned to the young man. “Thank you, I got the message. Where are the books?” “They are over there,” he pointed to a corner in the press. “Please, follow me.” We walked to the corner where the books were neatly packed.   I cons...
