    Everything went back to normal; peace was restored to Alagbagba village likewise to the house hold of baba and mama Ewa. Ewa resumed back to school, her friends were so excited to see her, because she was one of the bright students in her class. Who would have thought ‘Jaiye Aremu’s friend had an eye on Ewa? Ever since ‘Jaiye came across Ewa at Aremu’s place in Kasope village, he fell in love with her, it was love at first sight but Ewa knew nothing about ‘Jaiye’s intention towards her.    Jaiye, is a well-known trader in Kasope Village, he traded in textile materials which he majorly sold to Kings both in Kasope, Alagbagba village and other neighboring villages.

“Some men may succeed, because they are destined to, but most men succeed because they are determined to”.   -Henry Ford     The rewards one gets in life are usually the results of one’s efforts. No man can hope to have a very easy life and also at the same time a very successful one. There may be only one or two exceptions in thousands of cases on this matter. It is astonishing what intelligent efforts can achieve when channeled in the right direction. If success had been easy, everyone would have been successful. However, the path to success is not as difficult to climb as it might appear. Each time we overcome an obstacle; the work becomes easier.   It is very necessary to work hard to achieve success. It is being said that if we love our work, we will never find it hard or tiring. There is no substitute for hard work. At the same time, there should be a purpose and a noble goal at which to aim and advance. We must decide our aim in life or what we want most out o...

     Surprisingly, Ewa was at the backyard of the house, trying to harvest some vegetables.  She wanted to make some Egusi soup out of it, alongside the tubers of yam Aremu harvested from the farm. Aremu was quite astonished 😳 to see her because he had thought Ewa had eloped or something evil had happened to her.    Days rolled into weeks 📅. And on a particularly sunny afternoon, while Aremu was on the farm, his friend Kalejaiye (‘Jaiye for short) came around. Jaiye knew about Ewa, what she had been through, and what had happened to her parents back at Alagbagba village. Jaiye told Aremu that he heard from a reliable source that the robbery incident in Alagbagba village several weeks back that brought about the disappearance of Ewa’s parents and other people who lived in the village did not end well.  While the robbers were escaping with their fugitives, they came across some hunters who ended up killing them, leaving none of them alive.

    Most times we do things that we never take note of that are wrong, and before we know it, gradually and consistently we are already into it and we find it difficult to stop it these things are called BAD HABITS and this is going to be our topic of discussion today. And if you would ask me, what is a Habit?    Literarily, habit is an action done on regular basis, its an action performed repeatedly and automatically usually without awareness. And you would agree with me that there are mainly two types of habit that we all know and are familiar with which is the GOOD and BAD habit. But basically, today our focus will be on the BAD habit.

     Today, we'd be taking a look at something everyone or better still everybody is familiar with and of which we obviously can't do without in a day, you’d agree with me it’s a miracle drink we all are ignoring. Wondering what it is🤷. I guess you are wrong. Today we would be talking about water and some of its benefits we all for most of us might know about and might not know about. Water is generally defined as a transparent, tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless. Its chemical formula is generally known as H₂O. In case you don't know, Water covers 71% of the Earth's surface, mostly in seas and that's just by the way. I guess an average percentage of People might not know the benefits of drinking water and this is what we would focus on today.  Studies have shown that the human body is made up of about 65-70% water and so therefore, for our body to function properly and efficiently, it must be well hydrated.            ...
