Brotherhood a short story

"I need your help," Nkem said. "I have no dime on me right now, I'm yet to receive my wage," Nkem further explained.

She tried reaching him it was "the number you are calling is not reachable please try again later or you can drop a voice message," was what she heard. She kept dialing his number, suddenly, "hello! hello!! hello!!! I can't hear you. What are you saying," he dropped the
phone on her ears.

It was clearer to her that he was actually avoiding her because he heard assistance. She began to realize that life is all about "Oyo" always "on your own" "Now I know that what one cannot do for herself nobody will be able to do it for her".

Nkem had seriously been struck with strange ailment for years, all her friends ran away, her relatives abandoned her. She laid on that same mat always, it was Almighty who was sustaining her. It was at a point when the food she stocked while she was working got finished that she began to seek for help which she later did not find.

Nkem wailed and wept but nobody came to her aid. She breathed her last.
As soon as she gave up the ghost people trooped in crying. But it was actually like a cinema, hence Nkem's apparition chased them away with invisible whip.


Life is full of ups and downs, in time of trouble is the best time to know true friends.

Start now to look out for real friends.

That boss who delegates to the employees and gives them authority as well as responsibility enlarges their horizons and empowers them to become better workers and people. Even the parents who know how to give their children grace and when to, also help them to stay open and communicative. All of these people add lasting value to the lives of other people. One thing is this, we don't know what kind of influence you have on others, today as you read this article. Your actions may touch the lives of thousands of people.

Considerable quotes on a SuperLeader

Perhaps it's time you had a talk with yourself... The teacher does not bid you enter the house of his wisdom but rather leads you to the threshold of your own mind - so must each of you develop your own knowledge and your own understanding. We need a healthy appreciation of those who exercise the free man's option for excellence. Most people are very careful about how they talk to others. They apparently are
