ABEKEEMI: "A BIRTHDAY ODE TO VIRTUE, LOVE, AND DIVINE GRACE" BY S.A. AYINMODE


Abekeemi, a name redefined by purpose and light,
God-fearing in spirit, steadfast in truth.
Devoted, intelligent, crowned with wisdom,
A keeper of home, adorned in respect and honour.
Adorable in strength, gentle in nurture,
A mother by calling, a virtuous woman by nature.
Hummm......You are grace lived daily, not merely spoken.

Abekeemi, proud daughter of Ìjẹ̀ṣà land,
Where dignity walks with quiet confidence.
Ìjẹ̀ṣà blood flows with honour and depth,
A people famed for integrity, courage, and poise.
In you, heritage whispers softly yet firmly,
Rooted in culture, crowned with character.

Abekeemi, a seasoned Chartered Accountant per excellence,
Prudent in numbers, wise beyond figures.
Faithful steward of wealth and provision,
Balancing hearts and family treasures with care.
You turn responsibility into blessing,
And vision into enduring legacy.

Abekeemi, embodiment of pure character,
Your love heals quietly; your care sustains fully.
Kindness dwells in your words, compassion in your deeds,
You give yourself wholly, yet remain whole.
In you, love is not duty, but delight.

Abekeemi, patient soul and gentle strength,
Your tolerance shelters flaws with grace.
You have endured me beyond measure, beyond fault,
Choosing peace over pride, understanding over strife.
Your patience is wisdom clothed in humility.

Abekeemi, on this sacred day I lift prayers for you:
May God renew your strength like morning dew.
May favour encircle you, wisdom guide your steps,
May joy abound and sorrow find no dwelling.
May your years be fruitful, your peace unbroken.

Abekeemi, my heart rises in gratitude to God,
For the priceless gift of calling you my wife.
He ordained our union with purpose and mercy,
A covenant written in heaven, lived on earth.
Thank You, Lord, for Abekeemi.

Abekeemi, hear the chorus of love today,
From your Ayodelemi, who treasures you beyond words;
From Ayodamolami and Ayodebolami,
Who celebrate you as mother, guide, and anchor.
We honour you, we cherish you.
Monisola Olabisi STV-Ayinmode 

Happy Birthday, our Momsie, our crown, our home.

DIVINE PROTECTION: MY SNAKE FILLED JOURNEY BY ABIODUN MOSHOOD O.

Image
During my National Youth Service, I encountered a series of terrifying snake encounters that would change my perspective on life. It began on a fateful night when I was making a phone call at a street junction. As I sat on a flower bed, a poisonous black snake slithered through my legs. I leapt up, shouting "Snake! Snake!" and ran for my life. Thankfully, passersby came to my rescue, and we killed the snake. That night, I couldn't shake off the feeling of mortality. I thanked God for sparing my life. Little did I know, a similar incident would claim the life of a local Imam. He had been bitten by a snake, unaware of the danger lurking within. The irony was striking – a man who once cured snake bites fell victim to one. My encounters didn't end there. One afternoon, while a fellow corps member slept inside, I lay on a bench outside. A visitor arrived, and as I attended to him, a long green snake appeared inside the room. My colleague's warning cry saved...

Stakeholders in the fight against HIV/AIDS are calling on the Nigerian government to take ownership of its HIV response, advocating for local manufacturing of HIV medications and supplies to ensure sustainability. This appeal was made at a media engagement organized by the AIDS Healthcare Foundation (AHF) ahead of the 2025 World AIDS Day commemoration.

"HIV should not be treated as a standalone disease; it will help us to reduce the level of stigma, and that is people living with HIV are supposed to be recognised as recipients of care like every other person, and go to the hospital like every other pe...
