CAMP TALES (Episode 1)

-



Every graduate in Nigeria have an obligation to obey the clarion call compulsorily and I was not exempted. However, I chose to disobey the first calling of the clarion call. Not because I was special but because of certain things beyond my control.

I am Mobola and I am here to tell my camp tales.

It was not easy making such decisions. In fact, I would term it as one of the strongest decisions I made because the aftermath needed a strong mind to stand tall with it. Well, my decision came with opposition but I was not moved. I remember someone backbiting that I never finished school. Would I blame her? Not really. Let's focus all blame on my pro chancellor who decided to flex muscle. That's by the way.

The second letter came and this time, there was no hidden place. I decided to leave the city of excellence to my camp station after a lot of preparation and consideration. Just like the popular saying "we move".

The journey to camp was not an easy one. At first, it was fun but it became tiring when the journey would not end. Fellow pcms like me crafted an anthem. I'm sure you would love to see it. It goes thus:

"Driver, we never reach?"

At long last, we got to the camp and guess what happened right from the moment I entered through the gate. Civil defense man begin eye me, as per fine babe wey I be.

"Come here!" He ordered with a stern but loose voice underneath.

He checked my documents, asked that I open my bag for inspection, even though he inspected my human anatomy in disguise after which he released me with an instruction.

"See me after your registration"

Nawa for who wan serve im fatherland o.

Stay tuned for subsequent updates.

Do well to leave a comment.

Till I write again,

Mobola.

      A wet appetite is necessary for enjoying a sumptuous meal.

    I don't really know why some people can't differentiate between work and pleasure.
    It's not a crime to admire a resplendent woman, but not at the expense of a job at hand! Although I have a personal question to ask you Mobola 🤗 till I read part 2. Cheers.

      This is one plague facing Nigeria. Most of the workers can't differentiate work from pleasure at all.

SMILE; A SPECIAL GIFT

I have come to realise that one of the greatest gift you can give to someone without thinking of the cost is your smile. Seems so little, right? Yes, but a warm smile can give life to a dying soul. However, smiling should not be limited to our circle alone. I have noticed that most people retracts that smile from those at wrung of the social ladder. Instead of smiling, they frown and say hurtful words to them. But the truth is not everyone can be rich, and those we feel are inferior to us have their usefulness. We all need one another to make life worth living and easier. This new found mentality was what informed my actions sometimes back. Few months ago, I made a decision to smile and greet every menial job workers I meet on my way. From the road cleaners, to the petty traders, beggars and the less privileges. At first, it was tasking but with time, I got accustomed to it. From what I discovered, smiling and greeting them was a source of hope; a kind of message that they are huma...

It is of no doubt that reading adds colour to life and meaning to one's existence. Each book read is like a sharpened colour pencil. Although some people are still oblivious to this wonderful fact.  However, the good news is that we can share our coloured pencil with others by suggesting wonderful books we have read. This is to encourage others to build reading habits. Kindly suggest and leave a review of the books you've read in the comment section and let us share in your library. Reading is fun!

DETERMINE YOUR CIRCLE

-

  I was going through my telephone address book dated 2008/2014 yesterday and discovered that I was no longer in contact with 90% of the people I had recorded therein. It is not like they became a bad person all of a sudden but there is every plausibility that we outgrew each other's relevancy. Now this is the real deal. Life is in stages and so is growth and development. Consciously or unconsciously, there are numbers of behaviour cum people you leave as you grow. You are not doing this because you feel you can just use and dump them but solely because you need people who shares the same ideology, dreams and visions with you. The people you surround yourself with goes a long way in determining the rate at which you achieve your purpose. However, I smile when I hear people say they keep small circle because they don't want drama. Of a truth, no one loves drama. Having a small or large circle is not the bone of contention but the value they add to your life.  This is t...
