iKOH and Co

Introducing...

iKOH & Co!

Although, political leadership has been seriously smeared with all manner of corrupt practices over the years, I am of the opinion that people of credible character can make noticeable and uncompromising change.

That won't just happen with any random guy that is morally upright and honest. Virtues need to be tested and tried with nearly irresistible baits over a long period of time to be "trusted".

"KOH & Co" therefore presents a platform for expression, training and exhibition. A virtuesmith. A refinery for crude leadership trait.

I hereby give myself up for tutelage. Teach me and I'll learn. Reprove me and I will have a rethink. Call me to order when I'm heading to the path of insubordination, I'll make a U-Turn. Encourage me when I'm getting it right. Reward me when I deserve it.

A better society is possible! A better Nigeria is possible!! A better world is possible!!!

JUMP OFF THE CLIFF

I recently watched two ants on the lid of my pot. They walked up from God-knows-where when they noticed the change in temperature. So, the hotter the pot became, the more restless they became. They walked from one end to the other as fast as their tiny legs permitted.

After some time, one "jumped" off what seems more like a cliff and guess what? It landed on the table bearing the cooker! It immediately took to its heel as though it is chased by a faster predator.

Seriously, when I saw it slide off the lid, I pitied the poor creature as I thought it's heading straight for the cooker (which is expected to be much hotter than the pot lid). But as God'll have it, it never happened as I rationally thought it would...

We all came into the world without being asked. That is, no one chose to be born. No one chose to be born black or white. No one chose to be born by rich or poor parents. No one chose to be born in a particular location. No one chose to be born on a particular date and time. You just grew up to know that you were born some few years back. That enough is a lesson for us all. How do I mean?

From the facts above, you will agree with me that life is a 'risksphere'. Wait, don't reach for your dictionary yet, you won't find that word there. Let me explain it. Can you remember biosphere, lithosphere and hydrosphere? Aha! Risksphere is simply a territory of uncertain possibilities. Where you just must plunge into, without a compass or fore-knowledge. But you are expected to arrive the land of fulfillment successfully.

You didn't even bother to ask "what happened to the second ant?". I'll tell you anyway. It eventually got roasted and got blown off the pot lid afterwards. Hmm, they both got off the death zone but only one made it alive. And that was the one that took a giant leap into a seeming uncertainty...

To stay alive, you may have to #JumpOffTheCliff. To effect a change or make a reasonable impart, you'll have to #JumpOffTheCliff. Complacency makes you feel safe but it is a symptom of insecurity. Try new things. Think outside the box. Never limit yourself to what you think you can do. There are a million and one undiscovered potentials in you!

Do have a fallow-ground breaking week ahead!
