Even a dog on guard will still wait to fight back after barking, before it beats a retreat. Much more of a whole activist. But immediately this one hear "tako! tako!" he took off like an Irish hare.
The year I rounded up my tertiary education at The School now College of Health Technology Ilesa in 1985, my mother came to visit me on a Sunday. As she sat down in my one room bunker she asked me if I went to church that Sunday.
As an ogbonge kegite, newly "ordained" Senior Fellow, what's my business with Sunday? On a typical Sunday it's either am arriving from a "mini" or "micro" gyration with a heavy and sleepy eyes. Or waiting for Seyi my regular Sunday guest. Male or female, let's leave that for another day. So I answered her in the negave.
And my mother began to rebuke me like a toddler. Hear the point she raised.....
If my father has little or no charms to fortify
me with and I am not going to a good church how am I going to cope with the world am entering into from school?
In other words you can't live this life "borogidi" You either go African way or take refuge in the secret place of The Most High God.
Of recent Omoyele Sowore took all Pastors starting from our revered GOs to the cleaners and white washed them thoroughly. And some bufoons hailed him to heavens clapping for him.
And it is not on record that Sowore has close relationship with the likes of Sunday Igboho for "ayetas" and "afeeris" Or was it not "afeeri" Sunday used the day DSS came calling with their useless herbalist? Igboho was right in the house watching them! He would have wasted them and their herbalist.
But you don't solve a problem by complicating it. Self restraint is the way forward. And discretion is still the better part of valour. And it paid off and the end of the day. Else Sunday may not be walking a free man on the street today.
FELA: THE FEARLESS ACTIVIST
And if any is still in doubt about "afeeri" let him go to Benin Republic and ask what the Sabe Yorubas used to deal with Benenoise gendarmes and their guns the day they faced themselves in combat in 2019! Benenoise soldiers were being ruthlessly beaten but they couldn't see who was beating them. No be person you see you go aim a gun at?
That means Omoyele Sowore is a "borogidi" activist with nothing to fall back on in days like yesterday in Abuja. All he got is mouth and bravado? Am not surprised he dialogued with his legs yesterday. With his tail between his legs. What a shame!
As I rest my case here, Papa Abraham Adesanya of famed NADECO ordered his driver to calm down and keep accelerating, when hails of close to 30 bullets was rained on his car on a street in Lagos. Shattering his car windscreen and side glasses to pieces.
After Sergent Roger exhausted all the bullets in his magazine, Pa Adesanya asked his driver to move on. Both got home safe and unscathed!
That was the last time they attempted such. Abacha is dead and Sergeant Rogers his boy is now permanently confined to wheel chair!
Egbe ori omode?
Yele, being an activist no be by mouth o.
Kindly consider my mother's advice. She's is still alive.
So stop disgracing yourself the way you did yesterday. Even a typical Modakeke Akoraye boy won't do what you did yesterday.
