THE ENEMY IS ALWAYS FROM WITHIN BY; BARR CLEVERTY AFU
One day I was with my grandmother when she received a call from one elderly man in Boje land,my grandmother screamed HAA''',at that point i know something was wrong but i don't know how terribly wrong it is,she looks into my eyes then she changed her looks,then she was talking slowly and gently using plan simple language at the same time she was using Euphemisms and she screamed again HAA'''Bonchi Damian okpo/tor/ in English language Damian Fathers too is dead, At this point i wasn't really good in traditional Boje language or Boki language but i know what she meant, it's obvious some people had gone before papa Damian.
Actually seven (7) people had died from the same family when they are about to clock 50 remaining papa Damian and one other guy who died three (3) years after
in Africa or Nigeria particularly in Boki and Boje we call this Hereditary family problems, or Family spiritual problems but the truth is they are beyond the scientific visible understanding of Humans or what eyes can just see.
Two out of fifteen African families might have issues with family spiritual problems, some couples refuse to come back home,some don't take their children home, some are off social media, some are hiding under the influence that their families are cursed, some don't allow people to know their standard of living ,some families are battling Bareness,poverty, spiritual husband and different forms of diseases, when you attend African indigenous churches very well and you hear some prayers points you will know that there are problems, when you hear some prayers points you will know that people have problem in this world, when you attend deliverance or you know a family that was cursed you will fear life,my grandmother will say Bibe basun bije ke/eji, kibat osowo oda/banghe bifrang be/e that is there are evil forces but may God never allow us to witness them.
She then go further to say the evil doers is always from within, so my brother friend, those who are always looking for your downfall are always from within, do you know how most of these problems evolve? Most records shows that they evolve from jealousy and hatred, some one will just hate you or your family for nothing or perhaps because you are doing well, it later turned out that some one cursed the family of Papa Damian,Actually papa Damian came from a polygamous family so someone cursed them because of something i won't say...
But trust me it's senseless the only thing there is jealousy and hatred.
We African why do we hate one another, we Boki why do we hate one another, Boje my community why do we hate ourselves with so much passion?
why do we just hate the facts that someone else is doing well why?
Not all families are friends though, but from Papa Damian story the enemy is always from within.
And you too, be always careful of the kind of people you tell your success story, to you it's Thanksgiving but to them you are showing off and pompous. So keep shut or change that circle of friends.
THE ENEMY IS ALWAYS FROM WITHIN.
HAPPY NEW MONTH FRIENDS.
