What’s
really good people?
We
are in November already? Na Wa O! I want to thank you all for the positive,
kind and encouraging words in the past week since the launch of Safari. All the
support and opportunity for partnering with you all really is what this is all
about so its time to get to work and get things poppin’. Oh I gotta tell you
all a quick story from the past weekend. I was Ridin’ Out like I usually do
listening to my maddening Naija Afrobeats music and pulled up to my favorite
gas station to get the cheapest gas in town and holla at my uncle (everybody is
a uncle, aunty, cousin, when they come from your fatherland and assimilate in
the diaspora). I mean NOBODY does that Good Naija music like P in the DMV. NOBODY!
So one Afrikan man in his late 50s early 60s pulls up into the same gas station
too and when he passes by me to pay the merchant he says in Yoruba “Omo Naija O
kan gbadun ori yen ni o”. I had to let him know “Yes sir I be OMO NAIJA –
GREEN/WHITE/GREEN I Never dull am”. Seeing the joy and pride in his face that
morning made my whole weekend.
(S/O) HBD to Mrs. A.I.
(S/O) To the EAGLETS of NIGERIA bring home the cup
boys.
(S/O) To everybody that has made the MY OMO NAIJA
Blogspot a major success. To the viewers, followers and supporters Love iz
Love. Read, Share & Discuss. P
Ok
people; let me get focused…
Can
someone please tell me what a man’s job is nowadays? Without going all
religious and spiritual but a man’s purpose is to serve God and bring glory to
the most high. We all can agree to that. Well let me tell you about one trippy wedding
ceremony I recently attended in which the minister while speaking to the new
bride & groom in the mixed of vowels being exchanged took it upon himself
to let everybody in the room know what a man’s job is in a relationship. This
old man bless his heart as he was speaking all I could think about was the Dave
Chapelle’s Black white Supremacist character Clayton Bigsby “look no further
fella you found him”. HILARIOUS
This
old man in his tirade basically offended everything under the sun that is now
acceptable in this very politically correct world we all live in. He was so
good at being bad and ignorant by making blanket statements without research
and facts that were totally baseless in which I had never seen people get up
and start excusing themselves in the middle of a wedding ceremony and exit the
premises. Bless the new happy couples little heart as only God knows what must
had been going through their minds in the middle of this EPIC sabotage by old
yella.
Through
all the misinformation and melodrama that was unfolding right in front of my very
own eyes, this nut job of a minister made one statement and point in which
everybody in the room could not ignore nor discredit. His point that resonated
with an entire room of guest in which he somehow had managed to alienate was
that a man’s number one fundamental job is to “maintain the woman”. It so funny
how we often get caught up on who is delivering the message, the tone and style
in which information is often brought to our attention or presented that we
forget the lessons and underlying meaning as to what gives us purposes and
value.
BEST
Get Maintaining Fellas.
