IN MEMORY OF EVERY OTHER FALLEN HERO

This morning on my way to Ogun State I kept on receiving notifications via Whatsapp from one of the groups I am in. I told myself that today is not one of those days that people will run down my battery with their early morning gossip and decided to appeal to their conscience and let the group rest. Going through the discussion I couldn't help but join in the conversation as what was being discussed by my friends could melt the strongest heart.

Today has been all about Odusanya Babatope a fallen hero who died in active service. Babzy as he was well known by friends was killed sometime in March during one of military operations in the North.
Babzy would have been a year older today if death had not taken him out of this cruel world. He was in my set and even though I cant recall any personal encounter others didn't hesitate to pour their hearts out in the group and these are some of the things they said about him.

* If the dead do really look back you will see how much we miss you being with us. Happy Birthday friend, our own General that never was. we celebrate you today as you would have been a year older - YAKS

*Even in death, we will celebrate his birth and love for his country. Sun're oooo Babsy- DAVOUR

*My friend my house Captain and my shield from bullies...He was the best Captain Green house ever had. Never flogged juniors without a cause and did the portions that were left undone before leaving for class. You are well celebrated, we love you but God loves you more- ORO

*What can i say Babsy was a real character, from his love for ebs and his ability to dance like the guy in Boney M, to his ability to call people to order when they are misbehaving. He was just a joy giver, the abudu bwen bwen master we miss you bro - UFEDOJO

*Words will never express just how un quantifiable the loss is, either ways we celebrate the few impact-FULL years. Babzy metamorphosed in serving our nation and we remember you today like you were never gone #SleepOnSoldier - IBITOYE

* Always in our hearts - PAPPY

*RIP greatman, Babzy valued friendship and did everything necessary to keep friends close even if it meant calling during one of their early morning parades while in NDA like he did on few occasions. Much respect SIR - TOJU

*I like that nigga he ignited my passion for the military hope to be there someday - PEDI

*Babatope Odusanya i feel really bad that he always made efforts to come look for me anytime i was in Lagos and I didnt reciprocate the gesture before he left....its all good. Life is fleeting, May God help us all - LESHO


Going through all the write ups i remembered this quote that  'YOU ONLY LIVE ONCE AND IF YOU DO IT RIGHT, ONCE IS ENOUGH'.  So I want to use this medium to honour every other fallen hero who has laid down his life for his nation and to also console the ones they left behind. I want us to also ask ourselves what we would be remembered for after we have left this place. 

Babzy lived his dream of being a soldier, although his peers never took his words to heart. Little wonder he always said 'FOLLOW YOUR DREAMS'. Before his demise he left behind a wife who he married in December 2014. I pray God grants her the strength to celebrate her husband on this day as he is being celebrated by friends and not mourned.

I call it WICKEDNESS

On 27th May, 2015 I wrote an article "Do I really want my Ex-back" since that day i have been trying to clean up some comments by some people who believe that casting spells is the best way to get your ex back or that person you love back.
I decided to put out this post because I am indeed tired of deleting such comments which keeps coming in even after how many months and secondly for everyone to know my stand as regards these amazing Spell Casters, temple powers, magicians etc that some people believe in. So let me start this way;

First I believe that there is enough space for every sheep to graze in so there is no need for over crowding. There will always be another person out there for you who will accept your flaws and help strengthen your weaknesses. It is not a Do or Die affair.

Secondly I believe in that song by Doris Day with the latin maxim titled QUE SERA SERA meaning WHAT EVER WILL BE WILL BE...(if you like use charm, one day e go clear for the person eye).

Thirdly there is always a price to pay when you alter the cause of nature. Whenever you use a mystical medium to make interventions on your behalf, you better brace yourself  for the repercussion which is inevitable.

 I understand the fact that when we are heartbroken, poor, lonely and we feel we are at the lowest points of our life, we are often forced by everything around us to use any medium possible to make things right or get back what we lost etc. The irony of this all is that most people who seek to have these dark mediums used on their behalf know little or nothing about what is been done.

I have always known that the heart of man is desperately wicked and it is so unfortunate that its even practiced with this thing called LOVE. Have you ever thought of the harm you are doing to person the spell is for? Of a truth people sometimes people wont understand  how you feel until they experience the pain...put your self in that person's shoes and if possible cast the spell on yourself first and let us know how amazing it is to be enslaved to another person because that is simply the only way i can perfectly describe this ....
'LOVE IS A VERB' and there is no joy derived in forcing one to do something forcefully. If you enslave someone all in the name of love and for your own selfish reasons, you should also get ready for that person's reactions towards you when that SPELL clears from his or her eyes because one day it will come back to hunt you. It's just cause and effect.

The real issue is this; can we really say our partner loves us when they don't have the freedom to choose? The reason its called love in the first place is because among the crowd he/she choose you,when you take away the freedom of choice you also take away the beauty of love.

Anyone capable of enslaving one just for the sake of love is WICKED and such person should stop using LOVE as an avenue to orchestrate wickedness. Sadly enough we can't identify such people by merely looking at them . So in Falz's voice i will pray that God should save us from Karashika...



 My apologies for the long break, but am back now.
