OH! MY MKPAT ENIN BROTHERS

 



Oh! my Mkpat Enin brothers. Shame on you. Yes!  I mean you who have sold your dignity for 5k.

 

You praise them for giving you 20k, you call them Eti-owo. You become and errand boy for them just to be given 20k. 


You sold your voice, your ego and you can't stand at their front to say Sir Mkpat Enin is suffering. Our youths are suffering. Sir you are close to this administration, why not cry to them on our behalf? No roads, nothing is working in Mkpat Enin. 


You can't say that because you have sold your tongue, your dignity and your person for 20k.


The very few we thought had voice and can speak for the generality of the people now go around " as informant" feeding who wants to listen with gosips just to get their pocket wet with 20k.


Mkpat Enin brothers what's happening?


How long are we going to continue like this?


You that has been a regular face at people's house just for chicken breast and 5k for transport, how long will you continue like this?


Even when they are not doing well you can't tell them, instead you praise them.


They are growing fatter everyday from the mountains of wealth they have incurred for themselves while you eat the crumbs from their table.


2023 is not even in sight, you have started praising them and you are willing to sell your mandate for 5k.


When would you realized that you can make a different?


When would realized that you can mobilised the youths of your domain to demand for something good in exchange for that mandate than 5k each that won't take u for 2 weeks?


You have sworn to allow yourself to be fooled by this people who careless about anything that do not benefit them.


Someone that could have help alleviate the suffering from Mkpat Enin won't be given opportunity to serve because you have sold your mandate for peanuts.


Someone that would have given Mkpat Enin a better representation is relegated to the background because the goons are afraid of losing their grip on Mkpat Enin.


They hate the idea of not being relevant even when they haven't done anything for the good of the common man.


My brothers!


let's stand up for what is right.


Let's stand up for better Mkpat Enin


Let's tilt our sentiment towards who will bring about Mkpat Enin we dream of.


Enough is enough.... Let's call a spade a spade.


Let's put a round peck into a round hole.


Stand up for what is good.


Stand up for what will benefit you and your family.


Stand up for your community.


Stand up for Mkpat Enin.


Stand u

DON'T LEAVE WHEN IT IS TOO LATE.

The story . Udauk was too weak to continue with the evening chores around the house because of her pregnancy. She bent over the kitchen cabinet in search of a tuber of yam she was to prepare before her husband returned from work. At the point of stretching her hands to reach the tuber of yam under the cabin, she felt a sharp pain down her abdomen. Her left lap was swollen from the beating she got the previous night from the monster's husband. She was still short of three months from her due month. That's when she was to put to birth. The shape pain was accompanied by a loud scream. She dropped the knife she had with her and tried to settle on a table-size stool lying close to the gas cylinder in the kitchen, but she couldn't. She fell and started screaming, reached out to her phone, and dialed her husband. Mr. Sam had branched  Madam G's Native Kitchen to settle for a while before heading home as his habit demands. He was busy at his usual joint with a bottle of chill
Social Media: Are we swallowed by it? It is alarming yet no longer news the rate of social media usage since the turn of the millennium. Social Media has become a tool in nearly every 9/ 10 persons we meet everyday of our lives. In fact it is estimated that youth particularly engaged in social Media taking 8/9 hours a day out of the 24hrs. Without doubt, social media has come to enhance and add more meaning to our daily life. Since the advent of social media in the early part of the millennium, the rate people get involve in these wonderful platforms keep increasing on a daily basis. To some youth and some fraction of older people, social media is like oxygen. They can't stay a moment without. A lady once said that she can't stay without visiting her Facebook page in a day. With the number of people flooding the Social media on per second basis, one will wonder if these technology has any bad effect at all. Millions of people use social media as it is the trend now,

JOURNEY OF NO RETURN.

  The story. The atmosphere was heavy, that of apprehension and uncertainty as Iquo stared at the open space leading into the compound. It was around 10:33pm that evening.  A time in Ikot Ekim community when every household had put off their lamps and retired to bed. The nocturnal sound of night creatures made the night even more looming and intense.  Nsek has never stayed out so late no matter how fierce any argument with his wife was. In their 24 years of marriage, no matter the nature of the fights Iquo has had with her husband he will always come back home to rest in his hut.  As time ticked away, she stared at the open compound, struggling to fend off the call of nature with the hope her husband would appear at the far end of the compound.  Using her hand to support her chin, she wondered how things could change so fast. Her husband Nsek was no longer the man she married. He picked fights at every little argument and would end the night with curses, accusing Iquo of turning his on
