Wake up Call

I had read so much about him. In my mind, he remained a mystery. The different accounts of him, Intrigues me still. We all lust after him, The old regret never meeting him. The young always hope to see him. Only until recently, I heard he could be found, Somewhere in the West of Africa. In the South Eastern part of Nigeria. I became disillusioned. Why such a great man Couldn't help his brethren? They paid him no respect at home, And so he left home. To those who knew his worth. Please, my brothers!

A Walk Through Igbo Cuisine: Oriental Soups Edition

Sometimes, there are a lot of things one ought to be grateful for, but  most times we aren't, simply just carried away by the cares of life that we never stopped and realized how fortunate we have been. Being an Igbo child and raised in an Igbo family one of such scenery where I would forever be thankful for. Thinking of the proud culture and rich heritage that has been passed down to us by our skillful progenitors never leaves my head without planting a smirk of gratefulness at the corner of my face; and a boost of confidence against the world in my chest. The knowledge of the wealthy stock of soup ranging from egusi, ogbolo, ofe ugu, ofe oha, ofe akwu, ofe onugbu, ofe okazi, vegetable soup, ofe nsala; that i had been raised with, is assurance enough for me to down play on every life's challenges and hurdles. I am also a 100% certain that my siblings all over the world project a similar mindset as you can find them evidently all around the globe causing wonders, conquering as
