I WENT WITH MY FIANCE TO SEE HIS PARENTS, ONLY TO DISCOVER THAT HIS MUM WAS MY MUM.


Growing up as a child wasn't a rosy one for me. I wouldn't categorize myself as a child that was born with silver spoon because I went through hell.
On some nights, I would go to bed without eating. On very bad days, I would sustain lots of injuries as a result of the beating I received from people I lived with.

As at the age of knowing what is good and bad, I found myself in a Motherless babies home. Before then, I used to see every child as my siblings. I saw the lack of resemblance, the disunity and several other factors that sent the signal to me that we weren't siblings.
On several occasions, I saw dignitaries come to where I live to donate foodstuffs. They come with items such as bags of rice, provisions like milo, milk, sugar and cornflakes. They also brought items like tissue papers, soaps and other materials.
I lacked motherly care and affection. I attended my primary, secondary and tertiary education while in the motherless babies home.
When it was time for me to get married, a young man called Ken came my way. He looked charming and disciplined. He was educated too. I felt we could build a home together.
He proposed to marry me, I accepted. The whole engagement process played out very fast. A date was fixed in which I shall visit his parents.
On getting to his parents house, I met his parents, they welcomed me in such a nice way. Something was not right as we had a conversation. I noticed the mother of my fiance staring at me constantly. I got worried. I started thinking if I had met her somewhere before that time.
It wasn't long, she called me aside. She told me to show her my back, I did. She also told me to show her my thigh, I also did.
She recommended I go for a DNA test. I took the result to her. On seeing the result, she fell to the ground and started crying, I was surprised.
I thought I had a genetic disorder. Another thought that came to my mind was that those birth marks I had on those parts of my bodies were spell casted on me.
She started pleading for forgiveness. She narrated how she had thrown me away after my birth because she lacked the available resources to take care of me. She said she has a strange feeling immediately she saw me, which was the very reason she demanded I show her my back and thigh. She also said to clear her doubts, she had to recommend the DNA test.
I don't know what to do at the moment.
I feel like not forgiving her because my heart is heavy.
What do you suggest I do? I'm thinking about my marriage.
I love my fiance.

PROGRESSIVE COMMUNICATION AND THE DEFENSE OF GOOD GOVERNANCE.

PROGRESSIVE COMMUNICATION AND THE DEFENSE OF GOOD GOVERNANCE. In the face of this stiff opposition came the army of young minds who could see through the impact of the new initiatives and were up to defend it against the venom of those poised to frustrate them… there are different organisations of young men and women forming themselves into progressive communication pressure groups in other places, convinced now that their voices must be strident, amplifying and strong enough to drown the rantings of the opposition. As a postgraduate student some years back, I chose to do a thesis on ‘Politics and the New Media’. That decision was inspired by what I envisioned was going to be a boom in new communication with the burgeoning fortunes of telephony in Nigeria and the rest of Africa. With the advent of the Global System of Mobile Communication (GSM) and the growing availability of internet facilities across our continent, I had no doubt that the future of politics ...

This angered Adelakun, then UPN Leader and Commissioner in Oyo State, he reported to AWOLOWO. AWOLOWO summoned Ige and Afolabi to a meeting. He asked them why two brothers would be fighting and took their matter to the Family's Enemy...."This is a man who hates your father(AWO) and hates UPN but now pretending to love the sons of the man he hates.....Ige was sweating profusely, he was embarrassed, he knew Awolowo was disappointed.

BRING TINUBU AND AREGBESOLA TOGETHER. Comrade Samson charges Obas

 SOS. Osun State traditional rulers. BRING TINUBU AND AREGBESOLA TOGETHER.   Sequel to the lookout for President TINUBU'S visit to Osun State, I want to charge our traditional rulers to please as a matter of urgency call for amicable settlement of the crisis between the President and AREGBESOLA. Aregbesola is a name that can not be played with in Osun State as far as politics is concerned while the President is the architect of his success political story. Aregbe that I know has no problem whatsoever apologising to the President and it's also very easy for Tinubu to gladly welcome him back to his camp but there are some enemies that feed from their feud and will not want it settled. What we are currently witnessing in Osun is a case study. Who is Ajibola Bashir to refuse the governor have his sit at his rightful place if not for what is on ground. With peace among the two giants there will be utmost peace in Osun State. I have never read in the history of Osogbo for praye...
