FOUR UTURIANS FOOD THAT MAKE THEM STRONG IN EVERYTHING

 

FOUR UTURIANS FOOD THAT MAKE THEM STRONG IN EVERYTHING

In Uturu land today, food is also a major challenge for the people.  Nevertheless, from the beginning of their origin they are created strong or rather I would say, they inherited strength from their forefathers.

Uturians today believe that the type of food one eat contributed alot to the kind of strength he or she has. If you must work hard for survival, make sure you are eating strong food that can last in the body because strength of the body is also the strength of the mind.

Below are the four powerful food Uturu people don't play with:

1. FUFU (AKPU) 

Uturu people like fufu so much. Why like fufu? Because it is a strong food that last longer than any other food during performing hard works either farm work or building work. Such hard works include; mixing of concrete, clearing bushes for cultivation, tilling of hips and others unmentioned.

Fufu is gotten from cassava roots and one needs to pill it, washed it and put it into big bucket or butter for it preparation. After three to four days it becomes eatable once cooked.

To cook fufu as food, the preparation depends on individual method. It has many methods. Fufu can get damaged but there are also a way of preserving it from decaying.

In the time of making choices, out of hundred, nitty eight percent would choose fufu out of gari its substitute. This is not all about fufu. Fufu is relevant to several people in the world today. It can be preserved if cooked for weeks if not month. If eaten with nice soup, you can be as strong as stone.

2. YAM (JI)

Yam is another strong food in Uturu land. Yam due to its relevant is being celebrated as Uturu New Yam festival every year as a big ceremony around August to September down to October. As history tells, Uturians don't use to eat yam until they tested it with faithful Christians who lived at Onuzo community.

Yam can be prepared with beans and in many methods as food. You can prepare yam as; roosting, boiling, pounding it to form fufu kind of food and preparing it as pourage yam. It has its associate such as water yam, Coco yam, and unna as in my native language but non can be compared as yam itself.

Yam is as important as fufu in the body system and the cultivation start around February till  May. People also plant yam around June and July as late planting. If you plant late, you don't expect big harvest. 

Almost every tribe in Nigeria are cultivating yam in large quantities though the quantity depends on capital. Much capital investment, more harvest. Yam can be preserved up to a year without decaying. Though alots of it in the yam bane may decay.

3. PLANTAIN (UKAM)

Plantain is also a strong food in Uturu. But it a kind of food that one must mixed it with another type of food before it can become a strong food. The combination of plantain and beans as in pourage, the roosting combination with yam and other nutrition ingredients, the boiling plantain and it can be fried like yam and be eaten with pap or fried plantain with jellyoff rice.

So, plantain is a strong food for Uturu people. Though, you can't compare it with fufu or yam. Many people would choose fufu or yam out of plantain if presented as choice food.

It has been said that plantain has  more nutrition but I think it depends mostly on the ingredients one use in preparing it. Plantain can be eaten either when ripped or unripped.

4. BREADFRUIT (UKWA)

Ukwa is usually inherited as a planted tree from forefathers. Unlike other types of food I have mentioned above, they are all planted with season and time but, ukwa has been there as an inherited food. And it is very sweet if prepared very well.

To tell you how important is ukwa, it is only in a big man occasion can one see prepared ukwa served. Few individuals don't like it because they have not inherited it and know not about the food. While many more are falling in love with its taste.

Ukwa is very scarce to get because of its value in the chain of Uturu food distribution. There's no season for its to bear seed. This ukwa normally  grow as huge tree and can last on the soil more than four hundred years. It can only be cut down when a higher need arises. You can fry it and eat it with coconut. 

Sometimes, the choices of food depends solely on the individual. But as for me, I prefer the food I have listed above to be my best selected food in Uturu because they make me strong any time I eat any of them.

HOW TALENTED PEOPLE FEEL WHEN NOT KNOWN IN MUSIC WORLD INTERVIEW

 

HOW TALENTED PEOPLE FEEL WHEN NOT KNOWN IN MUSIC WORLD INTERVIEW

Unnoticed artiste interviewed locally at the backyard of great stars building 2018. I have brought out precious time to intervene on the private success of this unnoticed artiste named Eweke Christian Nkemakolam (stage named - Kotex, Street Lover boy and Nwa Abia) from Nigeria down east side near Abia State Uturu.

When I was interviewing him, he tried his best not to deny his personality rather he shows how trustworthy he has in himself and trust in God Almighty. 

Here is the interview in details:

Chinedu 

Why do you go into music the first time? Is it for the money, the fame, popularity, help the poor or just that you think you have a message to pass across the world?

Christian

Music is in our linage from my forefathers. It has been long in our blood. Then, I have a message to pass across to the world.

Chinedu

What type of message?

Christian

To inspire the poor who thought there's no other hope. There's hope for everybody because God bless everyone. My songs are inspiration by nature and I love it.

Chinedu

What do you do if others try to follow your songs pattern?

Christian

I change it. But I will not change my intro and what I use as my logo like; I normally use - sail on and the street lover boy. It because anywhere either featuring  others, if you hear it you will recognize the voice. That a secret some of the upcoming artiste don't know.

Chinedu

What are the problems you encounter and why didn't you quit?

Christian

Lots of problems. I don't know which one to talk about. Is it money to produce, family setbacks, lost of love ones and others. It's many. I remain in music because am ready to work with God who encourages me spiritually.

Chinedu

How did you believe in God?

Christian

Ha! My brother, if no be Good I don't know where I for dey. Because I don't even understand what is going on in my life in the time of troubles but God who knows everything saved me and shows me the way of his enternal blessings. I don't bear grudges in mind and not been envious in other people's success because I knew it is their blessings as I have mine too.

Chinedu

But, who has really helped you out in your songs so far?

Christian

If I am to say, it is my producers. Because many atimes they are the ones who gave me much inspirations to voice and revoice without giving up on me till I make a meaningful song(s) that only bears my name. Producers are the main source of my power because without them directing me - I don't know where I for dey.

Chinedu

What could be your advice to other upcoming artistes?

Christian

They should remove enviness and jealousy and do their own thing their way.

Chinedu

Can you teach someone how to sing even if when singing is not his talent?

Christian

I can teach anybody and he becomes successful. One thing you should know is, not everybody that sings is a musician and not everybody that isn't a singer is truly not a singer. Some singers sing while some other talented self made singers don't sing. The reason is that, not everybody is called up to shine. Shining is the work of God. Because of that, even if you are not a singer I can teach you how to sing and you become perfect. But know that most songs learners stop singing after releasing either blown songs or not sellable because they are not called up singers from the beginning of their creation except by persistency of their own hearts.

Chinedu

What could stop one from becoming a singer after learning it?

Christian

Shame and unnecessary styles of stage performances and imitating others. Another one is not been concentrated on a particular type of songs or lack of self trust and or dry pocket.

Chinedu

Wow. But as the thing be now, what is your fear in the music world?

Christian

My fear? Hmmm. Well, atimes its talking about myself in crowd. I prefer singing and jarating on stage than talking only. But am working towards it's eradication.

Chinedu

How is people close to you view your life as a musician especially as a street lover boy singer? Any idea?

Christian

Yes. Always. I have little idea. Not even my close people also publicly. I noticed those who don't value me through their gossips, tricks, blind communications and unmotivated eye looks on me. Though, I don't actually know because many that I don't expect to hurt me - do hurt me while many I thought hate me sometimes show me love. So, it's by His grace I live life.

Chinedu

Well, in everything I believe you are going to help people as so many prophecy has revealed your abundances to be too numerous.

Christian

Yeah man. By God grace. You know, with God all things are possible.

Chinedu

What type of songs or music do you play?

Christian

Na wao. Hmmmmm. I love to call it hip-up-reggae or hipregg but it seems so many people don't understand it. It's a kind of combination of hip up songs and reggae and I believe they are good to those who listen to my songs everyday. That why I never give up in playing it to the world.

Chinedu

Thank you for your time.

Christian

You are welcomed.

TEN UNBELIEVABLE REASONS ROAD ACCIDENT OCCUR

 

TEN UNBELIEVABLE REASONS ROAD ACCIDENT OCCUR

There are many unnoticed reasons road accident occurs. Some people relate road accident as signs of rituals by evil men or bloody suckers of the dark world or spirits that enters or operate through human beings.

Others believes that road accident can be caused by the recklessness of some rough drivers who might be under an influence. Still, when we don't know the root of a thing we don't need to tell stories that affect even the unseen world. Laying blames where there's no blame.

Down here are the ten unbelievable reasons most road accident occurs without mercy.

Here they are:

1. OVER SPEED

Too much speed can cause a fatal road accident. What could cause over speeding? It could be as a result to meet up for something or just the enjoyment of over taking other vehicles without a second thought of what might happen after.

To control or prevent it, young drivers at heart should think of how precious life is, so that it could not be easily lost.

2. BREAK FAILURE

This too can be a reason road accident occur by sudden. What could cause break failure? Well, it could be shortage of highdronic oil around some places that needed it and greasing not enough. It could also be lack of vehicle maintenances when necessary. 

To stop this, proper check up on the break should be maintained by drivers without giving flemsy excuses.

3. BEING IN THE INFLUENCE OF DRUG OR ACHOHOL

Some drivers don't know their gage and because of that, they even think that being in the influence would help them drive well. But this is not true. Some even take it as pleasure to be under the influence of drugs while driving. It is not acceptable to be drunk and be on the steering because of the way innocent people who know nothing are dying out of carelessness of drunked drivers.

To stop this, drivers should always drive with passion and caution without being under the influence of too much intake of toxic liquor into the body.

4. STRESS OF THE BODY AND MIND

It is true that people over stress themselves in order to meet up with demands of their services. Due to too much stress of the body and mind at the hours of work, tasks not finished, bosses sending errands and all that's reasons many lives have been wasted.

It is advised dear, when the body and mind are weak, please rest. You can take the horse to the stream but you can't force it to drink water. Likewise, you can manage to take your body to the  seat but you can't handle your mind.

5. DARK SUPPER NATURAL MANIPULATION

Many drivers have claimed after an accident that it is a super natural manipulation on their steering. They blame God for allowing it happen on them. 

Drivers should know that their beliefs can affect their entire lives, so be intelligent both physically and spiritually to avoid costly road accident. Your inner world controls your out world. Be warned reckless drivers.

6. PHONE CALLS WHILE HANDS ARE ON THE STEERING

This particular one has damaged innocent souls who are drivers. There are drivers who have doudged all other road signs and instructions of things that can cause road accident but have fallen victim to this one - phone calls while driving.

To prevent it, avoid answering calls even if you are looking for directions while driving. Pack to a place and finish your calls for your safety and others.

7. ROMANTIC INFLUENCE

Careless drivers do romance girls in their car while driving. They take it to be a chance to touch a lady romantically knowing fully well that some girls would close their mouth just to reach to their destination. 

Such idea is not ethical in a developed country. Save your life and help others for a true service to humanity.

8. WICKEDNESS OF THE HEART

There are some drivers who are naturally wicked and arrogant. They rather allow an accident than to give way for over taking.

Wickedness can not make one get what he wants fast nor improves on the peace of mind, please avoid arrogancy and love one another.

9. UNABLE TO CONTROL TIME

Time has been another serious factor road fatal accident happens. Due to rush and hurry to meet up with a sheduelled appointment many have fallen victim. There have been people who are in a hurry to meet up with flight ticket and finally did not meet up due to unprepared time concious. 

Stop been in a hurry to go to a place either with your car or legs. Always prepare in the mind before setting up the moves.

10. BAD ROAD

The last but not the least is bad road.  Bad road has contributed much of the accident in the process of traveling long distances. Another point is errossion, gallops and unnoticed damaged bridges on the way. But in all, road accident occurs when it is not expected. 

It happens mostly to drivers who are under influence, wickedness of heart, romantic engagement, phone calling while driving, stress of the body or mind, break failure, time run out and sometimes from  super naturally dark manipulation.

Road accident no matter what the cause may be, can be prevented through carefulness of the drivers, thoroughly car check up before taking off and avoiding all other road disobedient and road signs not observed. Prayer can still stop unwanted and unprepared accident. As the Bible told us to pray without season. Road accident is one of the biggest reason why we should pray without season because of our dear precious gift of life.

HOW I HAVE COME TO KNOW THE SECRET

 

HOW I HAVE COME TO KNOW THE SECRET by Rhonda Bryne

The secret is working! The secret is the law of attraction. The law says; whatever you think about and talk about you will bring into your experience.

The story you are about to read now is an experiment I have done the moment I realized there's a secret on how to live the lifestyle you want on the face of the universe. The other phase looks like saying; earth has a principle to live in it.

I started browsing about the secret around 2012 with my small Nokia phone having no idea that there's a book called the secret.

I understood that my thoughts are very important when it comes to worldly and spiritual achievement.

I have a friend who is a copper member from Yoroba land. I have told Abel about the secret movie even as I have not watched it. I told him to download it for me that I would pay him. 

Sometimes, our lack of knowledge can greatly limit us.

I know the law  of attraction to be; likes attract likes and focusing on what one really want.

The first amazing thing that happened in my life as a result of reading the secret online is my laptop. I was a village public call boy around 2009. I have only but small phones, table and cards for selling. I needed laptop to expand my business and increase in the services I rendered to the public because they needed it. 

As God may have it,  I have another friend Chukwuemeka popularly known as Niger in the village who travelled to abroad few years after knowing him. He suddenly came back from Canada and sold me a fresh fairly used laptop at a low price. I would say, he nearly dashed me the laptop. Because of the laptop, I struggled and  bought a new office printer named 'three in one coloured printer' I got them because I have thought it and visualized them. I wished to grow, to offer more services. 

One thing am doing that I don't know it counts is gratitude. I was very grateful to any single thing that happens to me and for me. When one buy's from me I would say; thank you. When I exchanged anything from anyone I wouldn't fell to say; thank you. I was full of gratitude without knowing that gratitude is one of the secret. Because when you are grateful to what you have and have gained more good things will happen to you.

Remember, I have read the secret and keep practicing it even as I have no idea of the power I was summoning when I thought and visualize in my thoughts. I was expanding in my thoughts so are the thoughts happening in my life as a daily experiences.

On 14th of December 2014, I went to a seminar at Owerre conference hall. I have no idea of their raffle tickets selling. I just reluctantly stood up from my feet and asked someone what's happening outside the hall. He told me, it's a try your luck ticket game. I decided to participate. I don't even know what I can get from it. I just went to buy a simcard of #400 to enroll. I bought it because I even needed more simcards in my business despite that I have little money left with me. I was even arguing with them to remove small money for me. The only action I took  without knowing the effect is , I was so grateful and laughing and playing with the MTN sellers as I bargain.

Atlast, I went back to my seat. Within some hours of motivations by the speakers, it came as a rumour that the sponsors of the Rise Network want to go. So, they have to offer what they have for the raffle tickets collection. And the moment matched with refreshment time.  The shaking of raffle bucket has started as many phone numbers were rapped in small pieces. As I got my own snarce, I ate it fast before everyone as if I knew something is about to happen. I was happy inside that's what I could noticed within me. What's my happiness, I don't know. All I knew was, something amazing wants to happen.

As the basket was shakes many times, someone needs to pick and who soever she picks become the winner. So the unknown person picks a rapped number and opened it, hmm, guess what; it's my phone number. 

Many was looking around to see the poor me as I jumped up of my seat. At first, I don't know what they have for the winner. Besides, it was my first experience as a winner in public. I came out to shake the very rich man of MTN Nigeria representative as a new sealed 2000 modern window laptop was handed over to me. I was amazed.

I was celebrated like a celebrity as many people came out to shake hands with me. When they asked me to express my feeling, I wanted to share how it has happened but I was afraid. So I just thanked God and the sponsors of the program.

So, by this time in my life I was becoming more aware of my thoughts. I kept imagining, could this be a sign of the secret that I have used without knowing it? Many people at the event said somethings to my hearing that I used juju to get it. But they were wrong. I used what I know to get it. I knew the secret to be 'the law of attraction'. 

Now that I have gotten a new laptop, I know my desires has not finished. I took another step on how to get the books named; 'The Secret' and 'the power' written by one author Rhonda Bryne from Australia.

As I went home, I downloaded the secret in audio because it was offered for free. I tried to get the movie itself and found out that it need some dollars in your account. I downloaded the book and its related.

In 2015,  I started looking for the secret book from book sellers in different parts of the States in Nigeria though it was only in Eastern region both the book and the movie.  It was not easy as I focus more of my energy in getting them because I knew it, I will get them one day.

One day, it came out that I would attend another seminar hosted by Emeke Nobis the author of  ' The Profound Life' at Enugu. The venue tends to be in book shop. I gat to know some people and know the book seller too. As we relaxed and make some connections, I asked the seller about the book and the movie. Actually he did not have them but promised to get them for me, so we exchange contacts. It is then I got; the secret and the power books. He could not get the secret movie for me. I thanked him for the ones he helped me reached my hands.

So, I keep on searching for the movie. Remember, I was focusing and talking about it to people I felt could help get it. On November 2015, I requested the movie from a close friend named Abel in form of asking him to get it for me using his phone after I have told him much of the secret I have learned. I encouraged him to read the books, watch the movie and learn from them.

On 15th of March, 2016, Abel came to my shop earlier in the morning while I was listening  from the secret audio with my laptop. He can hear it because I left the speaker high open. He said; hmm, you and 'the secret'. I replied to him; I think I told you to download it for me that I would pay for the cost. Only that time he told me that he has it in his phone. And said, he got it since that November I asked him to download it. I was happy and eager to demand it quickly from him. He happily sent it to my laptop. That's how I got "the secret movie" I have been looking for years

Finally, I got what I was thinking and talking about most of the time. I believe that this movie would change my life in a great way because I'm already gaining from the knowledge.

" I agree within me that for many of my thoughts to manifest, it requires patience and sure it would come" - Batholomew Obienyi.

That's how I have gotten the books am still enjoying reading up to date. Thank you once more Rhonda Bryne.

SIX REASONS UTURU GBUDUGBU CULTURAL FESTIVAL IS BLOODY

" IF YOUR CULTURE START HURTING YOU, KNOW THAT YOU ARE NOT AT PEACE WITH YOUR ANCESTORS" - Batholomew Obienyi

SIX REASONS UTURU GBUDUGBU CULTURAL FESTIVAL IS BLOODY

Below are the very reasons different people are hurt in their culture.  Now let's use Uturu for instance. 

Must your culture hurts?

Here are the six inspired reasons the UTURU GBUDUGBU festival is bloody:

1. INABILITY TO FOLLOW ANCESTRY ORDER

In the beginning of days in Uturu land, it was Ena, the warrior King with many servants. Ena was favored, wise and righteous in the eyes of the gods and goddesses around his choosen settlement now called Uturu land. Ena carefully listened to the wise ones around him, obeyed his inner voice and followed his environmental elements and other spiritual sacrifices were performed including cleansing among his children between him and what he believes  in as his God(s). 

He finally dashed out of the world and handed over to his children the wealth within his reach especially to Uturu as the first son. This fatherly inheritances were maintained through following ancestry orders learned from the Father - Ena. Uturu grew up to became a warrior's son  and fight many wars from disappointed friends and servants who turned on to be strong enemies. 

As an ordained son of the land, powers have been zooming out from the spiritual side in favour of Uturu to fight against unwanted evils try to penetrate the land. The powers assist because orders are kept, followed and maintained. Many cultural activities were practiced in the olden days in Uturu as a kind of power tuzzles and merriment. It is a neglect to our forefathers that many of the orders are not followed. Even I heaven, order is the first principle.

2. MISCONCEPTION OF THE OLDEN DAYS BELIEFS

In the olden days in Uturu land, the people believes in signs and wonders from their environmental dwellings. It simply means, their beliefs is basically in the natural elements like; water-spirit, trees, snakes, stones etc, and know that the powers they use came from one big supernatural Being many called God.

A true Uturu son who is considered wise is one who follow traditions and understand the natural things or powers around him as a blessings from the Most High. Even hills, forest and other unimaginable backyards bees have purposes for  a true indigen.

It is the misconception of our environmental powers that led to some if not many of our misfortunes today as Uturu people. This misconception has played a very big role in reshaping, damaging and reducing the blessings and happiness Uturians are destined to have from time in memorial from God(s). 

3. DRUGS EXPOSURE AT THE EARLIER STAGE

In Uturu land today, though hard drugs cannot be the core reason but as a part Uturu Ggbudugbu cultural festival is bloody. Nawadays, drugs intake are exposed to little children during gbudugbu festival as part of the culture of the people. 

It is not like that in the olden days celebration of gbudugbu. This too, can be traced back as a sign of not obeying rules and procedures of doing things we learned from our forefathers who would be dead by now. As before, little children only observed, followed up, watched and sang songs for masquerades as they dance, bless people and earn money for their beauty under entertainment. 

It is abnormal to persuade little children to take in drugs mixtures inform of love shown to them. It is not good to use indirect way to initiate little children into dark occurt practices bas if they are normal and reasonable. So many adults today are misleading little children as if we are in a power tursel community. This too, can make gbudugbu festival to be bloody.

4. THE TYPE OF SONGS SANG

In the history book, Ena is a strong warrior and fight and wins many wars. Therefore, it could be say Uturians inherited war songs from their forefathers. These war songs are mostly sanged during the gbudugbu festival days. 

Though gbudugbu is not for war but it could be say that gbudugbu has two phase. One phase is for peace, unity, love, progress and blessings among the people. While the other phase is for war, and a show of individual strength inform of power exhibition. 

Blood or sweat, the gbudugbu festival has a spirit and it's a spirit. The culture needs sacrifices. It is said: no pain no gain! When you are under a trap, either you distroy the trap and get out of it or you remain in the trap and surfers the pains and wounds it left you with. In a nurtshell,  stop the culture or live to experience more hurtful blood flow.

5. MONEY CONCIOUS

The culture is not met for money, rather it was for something else. It is one's work to find the meaning before perticipating in the gbudugbu cultural festival in Uturu. This too could be a reason many Christ believers don't do it.  

Many adults and unrealistic fellows thought that culture is money generated event but it is not. It is the misconception of this beautiful culture is the problem not the culture and it could be enough reason why it can be bloody. Remember, a tooth for a tooth. Nothing goes for nothing.

6. INDIGENOUS DISCRIMINATION AMONG POLITICIANS 

In Uturu land today, people have grown in awareness mentally to know their stand either as a true bloodline of Ena or servants part of Ena. Because of this identification, there have been a kind of intelligent challenge among who is the original son among the servants since historical facts are missed with force ideology. It is only in politics that possession over rules truth.

Whether bloodline or not, truth cannot be hidden forever. Those Uturians who like conflicting ideas never owns enough. It is because of descrimpancy of who is a true son that many obstacles arise today in Uturu land. Many narrowed minded individuals now use gbudugbu festival as a way of setting demacations among the people of Uturu in order to actualize their evil aims through cultural segregation. This too is enough to make Uturu gbudugbu cultural festival bloody.

DEADLY VISIT OF AN OWL

DEADLY VISIT OF AN OWL

Yes. I want to write an experience with an 🦉 that flew into our room at almost midnight at exactly 11.46pm and we struggled with it till 1.35am. Everybody know an owl to be very much connected to evil, evil happenings either in one's life or a sign of bad omen in the near by future. This too, can be reversed. it could be a sign of prosperity.

Let's start. I would say, though we left our two doors open. And it was a night of work and stress with my wife that led to our lateness to bed. But we are in our house, if we like we stay awake till morning. Our doors are open is not a good reason a bird many considered to be evil and crafty wouold find its ways into our inner room. Now we are four in the inner room. Two have slept off to the other side of the world if not worlds while the parents are still laying in the bed discussing issues and how to bring more love and money into the family. Just then, what we don't know rushed inside and I felt something on my legs and jumped up as my wife keeps shouting blood of Jesus, blood of Jesus and continued to shout it till I do the fighting with the unknown. 

I have used many weapons on it until I catched it near our television stand tighten conner where it could not react to my beatings. I finally brought a cage we are using for catching bush rats. I used knife and strangled it inside the cage and locked it there. It was only then we know it's an 🦉 after several looks. We kept it one side in the house. we have flashes it touch and closely observed it and its fearful and strong may looking at it. 

The owl has long ears, flat head, curved mouth, big red mixed with yellow eyes, white and black rotating eyes with a coated white eye brows and white long wings that colors white all over. As we went to our bed, we wondered what the mission of this 🐦 could be. In the morning, out of fear or curiosity of what this bird could be, we let few people to know about it. We now face the confusion either to kill it, sell it or allow it freedom. What will you do if it's in your hand to decide? We wondered on the spiritual aspect of it visit and what people would say if we sell or give it back to life. Or could it be for a hidden message we need to find or naturally it missed its way? Many people have heard it and have given us many interpretations of what it could mean. Many said; it's evil, destroy it. Pastor Chibuike who visited us on Sunday for three days prayers and fasting we have concluded with him shouted..Chinekemee! He advised us to let it go on fasting for two weeks and warn us not to kill it. 

My children have been calling it, our owl (daddy...ikgwkweanyi). And keep playing with it and seeing it innocently After two days, many other people came to see it. I can't even imagine the number that came but they are many. Someone working as a colleague priced it five thousand naira and I keep considering what next to do. The 🦉 in the cage may be going series of thought challenges. Praying to its god not to allow it die. It faith is best known to it or may be unknown. 

The owl in the cage remains very silent, squatting with its two legs looking forward and around to its visitors. When I want to go out at night, I took water and sprinkled it on the head to all over the body and it leaks it. I wondered what the food could be but, I did not remember to browse it. I wanted to preserve it alive. I don't want it to die. When I told my wife that I want to spay the 🦉, she shouted no in a serious way. I left home to my working place. I started browsing the internet for an answer. 

I hook up with Google, Google does alot of work in explaining flying owl inside ones room. See Google interpretations: Some say; it's evil, witch and connected to death or bad omen that cannot be figured out. Another say; it is a bird of wisdom, knowledge, insight and vision, expectation of something good and a sign of a huge prosperity and spiritual awakening. The big question is, what is the owl visitation all about? Earlier in the morning on Tuesday, I have pourd out water with kindness. Around 10.39am, a friend of my wife visited us and after some time, we took her to the 🦉 in the cage. She saw it and became very angry and wanted to kill it by all means. 

As she saw the eyes, she calls it all kinds of names such as; witch, devil,bitch and uses stick angrily on its eyes. I tried my best to stop her but my wife got me misunderstood because I was on the process of finding out the real mission of this white owl in our house that hour of the night. 

The owl on it own was trying to defend itself, making some angry noise, rejecting the stick point and looking for a way out of the cage. Truly, few people told us to free it but, many other people advised us to deal with it. The painful part of the 🦉 was, after one week in the cage without food only but water gotten by struggle it gave up. I feel the pain inside. I have not wished for its death.

MY FLYING DREAM EXPERIENCE

MY FLYING DREAM EXPERIENCE

Visit: https://clients.domainking.ng/aff.php?aff=4884

I want to share with you my experience in what many people think about flying in dreams what its means.

What you are about to read now is a personal view of a live dream written by a free thinker like me.

I like reading meaning to my dreams even as though, many of my dreams never come to pass. While some other dreams, manifest either in the present, past or the  future.

It is true, God uses dreams to reveal His intentions of you - the dreamer. Many people  think that they don't dream dreams. But how can a living soul not dream dreams?  

I think people who reason they dream not should think again. Stress can make you not to remember your dreams for years, but once you pay attention to your inner self, that revelation of the spirit self would start to show up. 

Now read down to see what meaning I have attached to this my flying dream experience.

I was 35 years when I dreamed this dream. Though it wasn't my first time of flying in my dream. This particular one make me to wonder within myself. 

When I remembered the way I felt imediately after I woke up, I told myself I must share it to my readers.

Flying in dreams appeared in many forms or parttern. You can fly with hands, seeing yourself over flowing up the sky, developing wings and using it fly. 

I have asked different people the meaning of flying in dreams what it means. Here what they say; 

Some said: "flying in dreams are demonic, others said: "flying in dreams is witch crafting, while some other people said: "it's not a good dream but it depends on what form appears the wings".

Let me tell you, flying in dreams is a spiritual power to over take others in life endeavour or in wisdom exhibition. Reflect deep meaning anytime you see yourself flying in your dream. 

If you don't know the essence of a thing, you may call it evil. The essence of dreams many have forgotten and played with and it has been a very big source of humanity sorrows and destructions.

Your dreams are God's messages in your entire life. Remember even the gods are fond of plays. They too, dreams.

I dreamed this dream thus;

"I saw myself some where in our place. I noticed a sudden shock and my body changed. My conciousness exclaimed and I hunger far. 

At that point I wanted to fly. So, as I raised my hands as if I wanted to fly, I noticed that two wings flipped up from my shoulder top joint. And I became aware that the wings are good to fly. 

So I tried it. I tried the first time and fly but couldn't fly higher. I told myself to fly again which I did. This one, I fly more successful than before am down. 

As I was flying, I wanted to see what beyond my view point, I wanted to fly across my country because you have set to fly again to see other side of the universe. I wanted to see above the sky. I wanted to fly very faraway to know what was there. I imagined within me.

News | Today's latest from Al Jazeera

That how my spirit wished to do with the wings I have developed in my dream life. So, the moment I wanted to fly the final flying to the new area of the world, to see the whole of the universe, I woke up".

Ahrrr! I exclaimed within me. This a dream?

As I woke up, I first enjoyed it as if it was real. Felt the deep connection that I have wings. Am an Angel I told myself.

Why could I not go the highway of sky rocketing like a rocket bird?

I was wondering alot of dimensions on the spiritual impact of this dream in my life. Well, if you are sure about the meaning it's either good or bad. I knew this dream to be a revelation of my greatness in my world.

I decided to check on Google dreams interpretation about flying in dreams. Here what I found out; "it's pretty good dream. To fly in your dream is good. Flying with wings in your bare dream denote; upliftment, high intelligent, more than others, high reasoning, and making use of your natural talent to praise God".

Google has answered my own meaning. If you happen to see yourself flying down ward you only would search for the meaning.

IF YOU KNOW THESE 8 THINGS IN UTURU YOU WILL BE RICH IN TIME TO COME

 

IF YOU KNOW THESE 8 THINGS IN UTURU YOU WILL BE RICH IN TIME TO COME

FALL BACK TO YOUR ORIGINS UTURIANS!

COULD THESE 8 THINGS BE THE LIFE OF UTURIANS?

1. WATER AND STREAMS

In this modern age, there are things Uturians should put into considerations and work it out as money making. One is making use of our water or flowing streams that pass almost to every village in Uturu as a developing town. Example is Idi, which pass across Amaidi and from Ngodo to Ogwahia village. And it's fountain they say is Ngodo. Idi dries up during dry season and overflows with water between April and May either beginning or ending.

The fishes inside the waters are edible by all and believe me, there are real big fishes and many of them go untouched during rainy season. Think of other villages in Uturu they all have medium streams that you can fish from.

Fishing in Uturu, if you put it into consideration and expansion of great minds can be a very big source of making money especially for the youths. Fishes are used in many occasions and they can be used in our food preparation at home. Remember, not everyone can fish because many are afraid of water. What is not risky in this world today? Go into fishing today and help reduce some problems at home.

2. STONES DEAL AND ITS  ASSORTED

Another source of making money in Uturu is stone mining and other hidden natural resources like gold and silver that hide in stones. Uturians have the opportunity to involve themselves in stone dealings which can either be local stones or gravels and or chipings mostly found at Ugwuele and other parts of the town.

Nevertheless, stone business is considered to be for the strong in heart only but who can be involved. Good health and sound mind is needed in this type of occupation. Wisdom according to the Bible is the principal thing. So, we need wisdom and knowledge and understanding to reap all the good things our Lord has used to bless Uturians. 

Sometimes it is greedy that set us back from the natural hustling which can make us rich now and forever. Right from the origin, our forefathers are strong fighters and warriors of the olden days. Why are we not like our fathers these days? Many like stone business but are afraid of sudden death.

3. FARM PRODUCE

Uturians are truly blessed and hard working people. Talk of farm produces in Uturu farming system. It has been a wonderful source of living inherited from our forefathers. We have lands that many other villages around the globe hunger to have. They feel like to push us out and possess the land. Go for research and vision into the future if you doubt it. 

There are lots of food and Uturu person can produce and eat for a long time. Examples are; yam, cassava, cashew, palm oil, tomatoes, corn, coconut, ground nut and lot more. You can survive even if there's no money in circulation.

Young Uturians can use it as an opportunity to Provide many foods both for themselves and for others. If you are serious in farming using the land, you can be an international food exporter. Why is it that only small percentage of the people are using the land for farming? Why is it that many are complaining of high cost of food in Uturu? Because we don't know the value of lands we have. If you know brothers, you will know that you have wings to fly higher using what you have.

4. CONSTRUCTION AND STYLES

Uturians are iron melters and wood carvers. They are constructors. They can use their initiatives to produce working hoes big and small, knives big and small, niddles, squirrels trap, fighting weapons  and other unmentioned things through burning and heating melted irons. These are great ideas that can generate huge amount of money for Uturians if developed and put into consideration by our youths. 

The village that normally does this is the Mbaugwu people who inherited it from their forefathers who are more constructive and full of creativity in everything they do. During danger days, it is them that the entire villages depends on for the production of weapons and strategic style of handling the weapons. 

Why did the young ones refuse to learn this great idea of construction using melted irons? Why is the craft of the old fathers been abandoned insteady of refining and polishing the work of our fathers. What does it mean to lose the process of our survival? We should be reconstructing and relearning the great talents of our death fathers. Our youths should wake up and not allow low level of awareness to stop us from the perspective of growth and insight of the future. The future is more important. Reminding challenges is a set back, just go into the field and grow with experience.

5. LOCAL CRAFT MAKING

This too is a source of income that has lasted for decades. Our mothers used it in solving lots of their problems. This is the first constructive work Uturu women involve themselves into. Where did they learn the skill from? Who taught them how to place the mats? Maybe, the gods of the land are not sleeping! Through mat making, many graduates have been trained. Through mat making, food have been placed on the tables of many homes. Through mat making, bills are being paid. Through mats making, many unwanted pregnancy have been prevented. And lots more.

Many hate mats making because of its time consuming factor in preparing it. Still, people who refuse to make mat use mats the more.  One rejected problem with mat is it's body filled with torns. But we have known for centuries that "Ego No Na Ogwu". 

Our young girls have rejected what put food on their table s for years at least after the war.  Many other girls preffer prostution, lesbianism practice and other quick money making process the insteady of rebranding mat making in a new style. You can't run away from your origin. You can't change your mother's identity because it's in your gene. 

It has been said; "follow the footsteps of your father's and mothers" this has been the best advice from generation to generation. The thing we lack in the footsteps of our parents is refinement, appreciation, endurance and market research connection. Can't we export mats? You need to know this, you can't run away from the blessings of your gods and their curses.

6. HUNTING

Uturians are also fond of hunting with train dogs both male or female, gun hunt, setting traps around farm lands and setting bushes on 🔥 fire. It has been fun for young guys who are motivated to work the old part of their fathers in earning a living and they are making lots of money doing it. Thank God we still have interested hunters who are inspired to take actions for humanity advancement.

7. MARKETING

There are market days in Uturu land where you can buy or sell farm produce,catched fishes, killed animals, constructed hoes or knives, prepared mats and other livestock needed for the nourishment of the body. Uturu has many village markets that one can go and get what he or she wants. It is true that many market days have closed in order to have a concrete functioning standard market.

Why do we allow our original self image to die? Why do we stand still and pay deaf ears to our ancestors cries? Why are we abondoning our old talents to want? I have seen in the development plan of the world spiritually, our gods are bringing world market to us Uturians. What can we sell? It is our products and origin that we are going to sell.  Untill you believe this; " It is through your handwork, sweat, endurance and thinking beyond ordinary individuals that your riches will come".

8. EDUCATION

Uturians are making waves in education nawadays. In the beginning of Ena the founder of this land Uturu, he has shown skills of his strength and order of arrangements through his abilities to face many challenges from the enemies. If  Ena and his supporters are ignorance in one area of his life, we wouldn't have inherited this land of heritage in the first place. 

It is wisdom and foresight that gave Ena his powers of being a warrior. It is education or knowledge from the gods that empowers the crafty men of the world. It is his insight that made him to reason even with the spirit of the waters and the spirit of the giant trees in his dwelling place. What can we do to retain the education of our forefathers? Where can we go to retrieve the wisdom of the old?

Truly, education of our forefathers have been brought back to us in modern and magical way that many of us would never understand it. It's now left for us to modernize everything our forefathers have taught us to be. We should fall back to our origins.

8 SECRETS THAT AFFECT BOARDING SCHOOL STUDENTS

8 SECRETS THAT AFFECT BOARDING SCHOOL STUDENTS

There are simple knowledge or awareness that students in boarding school need to be aware of, because of its high rate in slowing students down and it hidden influences it causes on students minds especially those in boarding school. Though, some day students who with environmental challenges in everyday life faces the same setbacks in their studies. Even though University students are not left out.  

Here are the 8 simple secrets almost every students need to know:

1. GOSSIPS, STORIES AND TALES

Listening to gossips, formed stories, false tales and other video clips that corrupt can greatly endanger students learning in boarding school environment. Many students have friends in schools who are story tellers and fake history makers. Most stories told, are not healthy to the minds of the little children only but to occupy their learning abilities.

Stories and eye contacts took most of the students time, and distracts them throughout the night, even in some cases these tales by older students dorminate many parts of the brain and you know that the brain works like a memory card. Many at times it's hard to delete something bad in the brain file.

A free memory card can record and store up information both relevant and irrelevant for a very long time. What you put to your memory whether good or bad would come to stay and remember, it occupies space. If as a student you fail to monitor what comes into the memory, it magnet more unmotivated stories which set most children back in their academics endeavour in life. Start in time in controlling what comes inside your brain as a student.

2. INNER ENVIRONMENTAL GAMES

Boarding school students are exposed rapidly in learning the negatives especially if mixed with girls or boys. Hostel bullying, seniority respect and all other social vices learned at home are poured out to the innocent students while in hostel playing ground. 

There are also few students who learn wisely and have their lives changed drastically only by disassciating themselves from the lazy ones that will be the only time they would attain to great height in such a colide  schooling environment.

 

3. CORRUPTED MINDS FROM HOMES

There are people whose homes are morally damaged. Some parents do allow their children to watch and read corrupted movies, books and listen to songs that explicited taking it as freedom to enjoy their parents sweat. 

Children should not  be exposed to corrupted things from homes, let them learn it from outside home and when they display it at homes, then parents should shape it with wisdom and understand. 

4. ASSOCIATING WITH WRONG CLASSMATES

When clever students argue with the unethical students, set backs in learning increased. Students should associate with their fellow students who wants to improve in their education and be ready to learn a new skill with  insightful minds through his/her classmates. Go to educative gathering and make some input. This too well change your life.

5. LACK OF INSIGHTFUL TEACHERS

Some other students don't improve due to teachers inability to apply skillful teaching. Teachers should be creative and flexible in using many tactics in building and training of students both  day students and those in boarding schools.

 

6. OUTSIDE MUSIC SOUNDS

Many students have quick  learning abilities that records songs and videos like memory cards. Learning how to handle what goes to the ear and what the eyes sees is a very big strategy in developing  yourself and helping your parents and school management as a sharp student because your growth is beneficial to the whole world.

7. INDECISION OF CAREER CHOICE

Some boarding school students have made wrong decisions on career choices due to improper friends and advices while in school. Students should be able to make wise choices on areas relating to their natural abilities, callings or talents from God which is from within. 

Not listening or following their parents directions because the decision  would be long  term and may be difficult to change both in spirit or on the face of the physique in time to come.

8. HUNGER, BULLYING AND MALTREATMENT BY OTHERS

Hunger, bullying and maltreatment can stop a willing , ready to learn students, School management, wicked teachers in class, inability of parents to provide learning materials for the child or a total distraction or weakness from other students. 

Every student has the ability to change and reach out for greatness. It is the decision from within to be a unique person that gave many successful individuals the moral to fly higher like an eagle in the face of the universe that matters. Make that decision today and be great forever.
