OLD TIME MEMORIES

Blast from the past - a rare picture!

Paul Okoku (remember him?), Nigeria’s football hero now based in the USA, responded to my public request for any pictures related to my last posting on the Soccer Ambassadors FC, the football club I founded in the evening of my football career.

He responded with the attached picture. This is, indeed, a rare picture. It shows that Wole (my younger brother) and I actually played in opposing teams and against each other.

That must have happened only once (I am not sure), and this match between Leventis United FC and Soccer Ambassador FC was the occasion.

Paul Okoku posted this truly rare and historic picture. Paul is on the extreme left, the legendary midfield ‘wizard’, Mudashiru Lawal is next to him. Wole Odegbami is next to Muda. I am on the right!

Thanks ‘Uche’ for this rarest of pictures!

PRIDE, INHUMAN IN PEOPLE

In the street , you find a _poor woman_ with a _baby_ at her back.. you lower your car window and with a military command voice you asked her:

How much are you selling those bananas and oranges? The poor seller politely reply..
K10 for a bunch of _bananas_ and K15 for a pack of _oranges_ with pride you demand the bunch of bananas at K7 and the pack of oranges K9 or else you will _leave_
The poor seller resign to fate and reply, " Take them at the price you want ".. I have not made any sale today at least i have something for supper now.

She has made a loss but she goes further to buy a _plastic bag_ for you to pack two items you've bought.. You order her to _hurry up_ otherwise you may change the mind.. She _apologises_ and with a _smile_ she gives you the items and she blesses you for promoting her.
You literally throw the _money_ at her and you _speed_ away leaving behind a cloud of smoke which causes a bit of _discomfort_ to her and the baby.. She is coughing while securing her little money. Her poverty has left her with _no_ choice.

You have now arrived at the beautiful hotel (restaurant) where you are to meet *friends* and you ask them to order _food_ and _drinks_ of their choice.. Thy order expensive _food_ __ and the _leftovers_ are more than the food they have eaten.
The total bill is K200 or even more and you pay without bargaining .. you give a tip of K50 appreciating the _waiter_ for a _delicious meal_ which you didn't eat half of it.

This incident might _seem quite_ *normal* to you but its inhuman

The point is

Why do we always show that we have bargaining power when we _buy_ from the poor?
Why do we become arrogant when _buying_ from the poor?
Why do we become stingy when _buying_ from the vulnerable?

Why do we show generosity to those who do not even _need_ our generosity?
Why do we become polite when _buying_ from the _rich_ who view our money as _mere_ change?
Why do we channel our money to a sea of money?

May God help us
Please buy simple goods from poor people at the given prices, in doing so.. our Heavenly Father will do wonders in our lives and to bless us.

Have a blessed day.
