The beauty of life is not about the horrible experience you have in life, but how you could see them as part of experience to live above them as a lesson guidelines of your tomorrow.
Yes, this is the first fruit of Mr. Jacob Abai, the one that prove him potent in the vineyard of men with workable formula beneath its ocean of production. Since then, Abai has been known as a man from Gbaramatu Kingdom, the fatherly responsibility made in him strived in different dimensions and today he is the publisher of GbaramatuVoice.
Yes, it was his Personal discipline not to celebrate his children's age until they become ten years of age, a discipline he uphold in his heart, for yesterday, he announced to the world that his son will be ten years old today, 8th of August, 2022, yes to welcome SAMSON PEREKEME ABAI to Manhood, as a transition/ initiation ceremony to think, to act like a man, to behave above "bobo drinking age", to take Godly responsibilities, to take decisive moral decisions, to have thought of independent thinking, to look inward, to reflect as a first son obligation, to profer smart and logical thinking to issues, yes, it was Twelve years Jesus appeared at the temple to surprise the Pharisees with wisdom above his age, you are two steps to that age, for that is the initiation birthday ceremony Abai thought about. That is why as the Talking Drum of the Niger Delta, I have moral obligation to join the family of my Boss to welcome his son to the age of thinking, and allow talents to speak through him.
My wishes to you are simple, grow to know that you are a father tomorrow, do not allow someone to tell you that a mother is a father and a mother, for who is a man is a father tomorrow and who is a woman is a mother tomorrow, learn to think what you were told and the things you realize personally, for such is the true definition of growth.
This beautiful world you see today, was created by God, man is just a temporary custodian assigned by God, if you do well in this temporary assignment, the hope of better life is onto you.
Look carefully of your father's trade, then see what you can learn from it, for these ideas can help you in preparing your future tomorrow.
I wish you what you have wished yourself as an innocent childhood journey to Manhood with responsibilities, some fail, some go on it, no one has failed in lives' responsibilities but opportunities defined the value of where you stand. For these are my thoughts to you as my Boss son, think like Samson but don't fall like Samson.
Congratulations.
Happy birthday to you Abai's son, PEREKEME.
