lol@ keeping KPMG before your life, you cheapskate. From the onset, I had this uneasy feeling because the bus made a loud sick creaky sound when it was started at the park. As a matter of fact, its rickety looks was baffling than usual. I bet it was a local park and the cheapest fare you could afford. seriously, what do you expect when you enter a rickety bus, a smooth ride? am sure there were rice sacks, Ghana-must-go bags and all sorts of heavy bags strapped to the bus, on top and bursting out of the booth. if you wanna travel by road, do it well. there are reputable transport companies that take safety seriously and do not exceed a certain speed limit. I hope you got the job? |

Death is a journey to the unexplored. The big question is, who is ready to be that great explorer ?? |

You know what baffles me? You narrated this ordeal without taking a common photo of the incident. This shows how you gon do this without evidence. Showing those pics to your potential employer might even automatically get you the job. Anyways, I thank God on your behalf. 1 Like |

I thank God every day for the gift of life. The life is just so mysterious that no one can permutate his departure time. My near death experience occurred to me in my final year as an undergraduate in the ever popular Ekosodin @ UNIBEN. It was a nightmare that still remain fresh in my memory till date. It almost had a psychological effect on me. I was attacked by 6 hefty boys by 1am. After robbing the other occupant of the hostel, they came to my room that is well protected with double iron gate. They knocked and I refused to open because I know they can't gain entrance to my room. I was with my side chick that night. They shouted in anger... Open the door or you die... I hide my laptops, phones and other electronic gadgets with me including that of the babe and money. she started crying... please open the door for them. As a stubborn guy I refused. I though they will knock and leave thereafter... The became angry because I refused to open the door. They brough out their axe and destroyed my glasses. That wasn't enough, they started hitting my window protector with their axe... they said since I refused to open, they will break the protector to meet me. I became cold. What should I do? The babe has melted already leaving me to brainstorm ideas to savage the situation... They continue to hit the protector harder and the protector became weak... This time they said " we must kill you when we come inside". I was so cold. It was between life and death. I though of escaping through the ceiling but what will now happen to the babe. My head was just generating ideas every seconds. I went closer to the window protector and use brain to collect the axe from them because the axe hooked to the protector as they hit. I drag the axe inside my room. They were handicap. They brought out an iron rod to hit the protector so it can fall, I then connected light to the protector. One of them said " we must kill this boy", he is too stubborn. This guy must die... they said. I was just think how it will be if they finally succeeded in breaking the protector. I saw weeping and applying brain. I was too late to open the door. I never knew they came with a gun. Immediately they brough it out, nepa took the light. God of heaven I said... I was sweating like someone in a battle field. I ran out of ideas because they were not interested in robbing again but after my life. They brought out their touch light. As they began to find the next possible step to break into my room, a gun shoot came from somewhere close. They became afraid. I saw it on their faces. They asked themselves who shut the gun but no one could explain. 5mins later, another gun shoot came and they all ran. I almost collapsed. I thought my end has come. My babe has slept off on the floor sweating bitterly. I woke her up and she cried till dawn. The experience affected me psychologically for months before I gain my balance. God was the ultimate reason I escaped that mysterious robbing attack. I thank God for saving me till date... Baba Ose 32 Likes 3 Shares |

Your immodest use of creative writing technique mocks the sober feeling an unpleasant incident like yours should ordinarily evoke in readers. I am tempted to place your experience on the shelf of creative fiction. |

Jengbetiele: Why don't you tell people to be cautious of vehicles they intend on traveling in? That was obviously the problem and the Most Important Thing to tell. Everybody who entered that vehicle did so at their own peril. They all decided to ignore glaring signs that the vehicle was poorly patched up, and look at how it ended. Lesson: when you see a patched up, ugly, discolored, battered, scary-looking vehicle and you have misgivings, be lucky you noticed and do not get on it, be it a taxi or long distance trip. That vehicle was not destined to pick you up. |

For the first time in my life, I saw human brain splattered on the road today, legs mangled. While others passengers were covering their eyes in agony and self pity, I just sat there stone faced, with my brain going into denial. I realized that I have been numbed by the constant pictures of gory sights I see on the internet. Forgive me if it seems like am uncaring and that I click all gory pictures online. I avoid such stuffs but I am always presented with them on my facebook wall by people who are more interested in being the first person to report horrible news. I wonder how such people would feel if they were the ones being snapped dead on the highway. I wanna add this, aside rickety vehicles, most drivers on the highway drive as though they were late for an award program. It's sickening and disheartening when you realize that accidents that could have been avoided happened as a result of over speeding or just plain dumb driving. And yet it seems that laws that would ensure such inhumane peeps are punished seems hard for our law makers. We are left at the mercy of prayers before we set off on any journey but what if ![]() |

Funny how the futility of life and the certainty of death rubbishes our desperation for achievements. Literally, we're just living to die. The only problem is that man has already been condemned from birth. Therefore, "Hell from beneath is excited about you, To meet you at your coming"...Isaiah 14:9a. Don't be a fool to doubt the ancient cycle of birth-life-death-judgement. Think of how many have come and gone and how many are yet to come; "Our God is a consuming fire"...Hebrews 12:29. "Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure"...Isaiah 5:14. But how can we escape this ancient trap? "Hell and destruction are never full; so the eyes of man are never satisfied"..Proverbs 27:20 Be rest assured that we have the blessed hope of eternal life through CHRIST JESUS. His blood is our covering; a price he has paid for our souls. May God grant you wisdom to see life for what it is. Happy Easter..... 4 Likes |
