Mothers are politicians (See reasons)

I can say that mothers are always perfect in their nature but will always like to influence their children to do as they wish, this is so because the proximity that exist between mother and child will make it to be achievable.  Mother ;  A good example of caretaker. Naturally speaking, mothers are good example of caretaker, whereby carrying 80% (less) of the family burden, especially the children's and the husband,  they are good example of role model in the area of caretaking more than the father, because they make sure that #food is always on the table. #Taking care of the laundries. #Plays bigger role in parental burden. #Give them advice and proper female education to the female ones. #Ensure the safety of the children...... Caretaking is mostly the party of the mother because the father believes that he only has to go work and bring the financial support for needs, but the mothers takes care of those needs manually caretaking is thereby categorized as ...

The old man asked his son, "Is that a dove that perched on the window?". The son replied, "Yes dad". After a short while, he asked the son the same question a second time and got the same answer. When he asked the same question the third time, his son became angry and rebuked him saying, "This is why I hate visiting you, you keep repeating questions!" The old man was silent for about 10 minutes, and then he asked the son to go into his bedroom and fetch his old diary. The son did as he requested. Then he asked him to read page 2 of the diary.

I was at home one certain day when Amaka,a girl in our street came to deliver a message to my own mother but unfortunately,she wasn’t around.My elder siblings were not around too.The junior ones were playing outside the compound. “Is there any message for her?”i asked amaka who made to leave,since whom she came looking for was not around. “Don’t worry i will come back again for her”she said.The urge started again because i was actually watching the videos before she came.I felt like grabbing her,to practice what i have been watching with her.As she made to leave,i held her hand.I knew she didn’t understand. “what?”she asked.

STORY:CONFESSION OF A TEENAGER (Episode 6)

I knew it was very wrong of me to steal the money.I knew fully well that the money belonged to people and i equally knew she would suffer for it.I counted the money in a secret corner of the house. It summed up N20,000.I smiled.I couldn’t wait to meet up with Buchi so he could help me get the most anticipated phone. I got to school very early that morning but Buchi wasn’t in school yet.I fidgeted as i scanned the students trooping in,in twos and in threes.I was searching for Buchi.I waited in vain that morning for him but he was nowhere to be found.I was afraid of loosing the money. Most of my classmates were good criminals.And moreover,i wouldn’t like any of my teacher to find out i had such an amount of money with me.They must surely report me to the school and to my parents if they do,and that means trouble for me. It was after the morning assembly that Buchi came.I wondered why he came late.It was unlike him.I called him aside. “B...

I enjoyed the dance steps from michael jackson. I also found different movies on the phone. “Buchi is really enjoying o.i wish this phone is mine”i thought. I continued exploring the videos until i saw one video.I pressed play and i started.It was a sex video.As i watched it,my heartbeat increased.It was very much different from the sex scenes on movies we watched at home.This one showed everything.The boy and the girl in the video were unclad.As i watched the video,i felt some kind of impulse.I later discovered the phone had enough of such videos. While classes were going on,i was always busy watching porn movies.Atimes,iused earphones to watch them and when i do,i feel more pleasure than watching it without volume at all.

STORY: CONFESSION OF A TEENAGER (Episode 4)

I have been like a lizard that wants to stop falling from the coconut tree, but ends up climbing the same tree over and over again. I had my first encounter with real Indecency when I was in Junior Secondary School One (JSS 1). My classmate, Buchi, was the first in a class of thirty students to have a phone. Rumour had it that his mother abroad sent him the phone. It was a blue Nokia camera phone. Being a close friend of Buchi, I wasted no time in befriending his phone. I fell in love with the soccer game in the phone because I had always loved football. Back in Primary School, I was an addict of football although just as a spectator. Being so thin like a fountain pen and feeble like pumpkin leaves, I never got the opportunity among the big boys in class to show to everyone that I could teach Ronaldinho how to dribble pass an entire team and score a goal without a drop of sweat coming out of the body. The only strength I had back then in primary school was my b...

STORY: CONFESSION OF A TEENAGER Episode 3

We never got tired of watching the television except maybe when ‘Mr Sleep’ came calling; and we never stopped cursing the National Electric Power Authority(NEPA)whenever they put a period in our adventure by cutting power supply. I enjoyed the movies so much and was fascinated by almost everything in the movie: the enchanting voices of the actors, the perfectly- made faces of the actresses, the action, and of course, the scenes where the actors and actresses kissed, and the rare sex scenes. Although I was just a ten-year- old kid, I enjoyed the sex scenes so much and always looked forward to them. A movie where the actors and actresses never kissed or made love ended up very disappointing to me. I knew it was wrong for me to enjoy such a pleasure, but I could not bear the pain of not savoring it. I always pretended to look away or cover my eyes when such scenes were on scenes were on just to make my elder ones believe I was still a good boy, but I had a way of still seeing what was goi...

I have seven siblings from two mothers and one father. My father married my stepmother after my mother was unable to give birth to a child after six years of marriage. As if controlled by some external spirit, my mother took in few months after my stepmother was brought home by my father. However, my stepmother was already pregnant. Kenneth my eldest brother was born by my stepmother before Osarugue, my sister, was born. Kelvin came next from my stepmother's womb, and then I did from my mother's. My mother took over the baton completely by giving birth to two other children -Victory and Nosa- giving her a perfect number of two males and two females. My stepmother balanced the equation by giving birth to a set of female twin twelve years after I was born. Father was hardly ever at home while I was growing up, and even up till now, he is rarely at home. He spent more time away doing business than taking care of us at home.life was sweet. Really sweet,playing with my broth...

The Dirty,Red-Eyed,Igbo-Smoking Keke Driver 3 (Short Story By Royver)

There was a nagging feeling at the back of my mind but I kept shaking it off. I was now very late for my Onitsha appointment which was supposed to start by 8 o'clock. I called the number again, twice, but this time there was no response. And that nagging feeling kept growing. By now the motor park touts had noticed me. I guess they were wondering why I had not entered any of the buses. I ignored their stares and focused on all the Kekes coming down the road, checking them all, broken windscreen or not, for the thin unkempt driver, my knapsack held loosely in my left hand. From the corner of my eye I saw someone approach. He was obviously one of the touts. He walked up to my side and stopped, it appeared he wanted to do something but was hesitating. By now I had begun to boil with rage. It was finally dawning on me that I was being played. It was obvious I was being watched, I had had the feeling for about ten minutes. The tout by my side finally turned to me and at the same time I ...

The Dirty,Red-Eyed,Igbo-Smoking Keke Driver 2(Short Story By Royver)

I whirled around to look for him and his signature smashed windscreen but he was gone. The other passengers immediately began to sympathize with my plight but the Onitsha bus driver was a more hands-on fellow. "Oga, enter the bus make we pursue am!" He shouted, and I jumped in. The bus conductor barely had time to shut the door before the driver zoomed off, blaring his horn and weaving deftly and dangerously through traffic. I was having my second bat-mobile experience and it wasn't even 8 o'clock. I told the bus driver about the shattered windscreen and both of us kept a sharp lookout for the signature mark on each Keke-na-pep we hurtled past. As fate would have it, each keke we passed on the way had seamless, unbroken windscreens. As we got closer to the Onitsha expressway I had begun to lose hope. What I was really going to miss in the phone was my photos and contacts and very important information that I had forgotten to back-up. There were items dating back as fa...
