What a mighty God we serve

Happy New Year, people of God!! During the weekend, there were a lot of ‘bangers’ which reminded me of an issue that happened in my area some years back. So we got one mai guard and by ‘we’ I mean the landlord’s association of my area. During the interview, bro Kamarudeen (Kamo for short) boasted of owning a lot of charms, saying he was part of the OPC and that on his watch, no evil can befall the community that even in fact mosquitoes will flee and goats will not roam about. We should have been suspicious bhet what did we know?
The first day on duty, na so so he carry the “shakabula” gun that is owned by the community and carried koboko on his belt ready to report for duty. That day, me I was kuku coming from church to my father’s house when this man shouted “stop there!!” ah ah! Who is that one again? na so I see gun, what have I done? Or is it my sister’s hotspot that I stole the previous day that has caused this mistaken identity problem? Jesus, have mercy. “Where you dey  go?” he asked me, “my father’s house” I meekly replied in a shaky voice while trying to be strong who knows maybe he’ll have mercy. He just shrugged and said “oh you’re their daughter, alright go inside”. When I got to the gate I was just praying that it was left open because I can’t stay long here just so he won’t change his mind. God is a merciful God sha, the door was open and after I entered the house with shaky legs I told my mother who consequently told my father before she went to warn him never to point a gun at her daughter again, hmm! Action mama, mama di mama. Bhet one thought sneaked into my mind, what if he decides to take revenge when I’m on my own? Let’s not think evil thoughts.

My good Lord did not allow him time to plan revenge because that night some boys came to my area. You see, the guy in front of our house loves coming home late so they followed him. He was playing his usual ‘sho le’ when they attacked. Mr. Macho, Bro Kamo came to the rescue, it was as if they came for him too when they pounced on him. In short, they beat him baje baje meanwhile they let the neighbor go with a warning. It was like ‘aransi’. The next day Bro Kamo resigned, well more like absconded and weeks after, my neighbor still had not stayed out late like that night. Well today, it’s a different case, our neighbor still stays out late as if the story never happened, well, I guess he could have used some beating too and till date, we’ve not set our eyes on Bro Kamo, only God knows “where he were”.

Hello and happy new year. So in my quest to be more responsible, I'm going to be updating every Friday at least for this month. Let's see how it goes. Now you can hold me responsible. Thank you so much for your patience and reads, you've been amazing. I love you all.

Love,
