I'M STILL IN SHOCK !
~1.1 mins read
This is my son, He's just a year old, i had an emergency call this afternoon & was about to rush to work. I already, started the car and was about to move but surprisingly the car suddenly stopped. I was surprised because, it's the same car i went out with this morning and before coming back home i had taken it to my mechanic and even made sure i had the tank full before returning home..
I was 100% sure the car was good and in perfect condition. My instincts kept telling me to go out and check. But i kept ignoring instead, i kept trying to start the car and it finally started after three attempts. I was about to move when I had another incoming call from my secretary, she talked about some documents so, i stopped the car to quickly go back into the house so i could, quickly sort & carry them along and behold, boom i found my son under the car, oh my goodness, i cried out so loud out of shock. Up till now I'm still in shock, i keep imagining what if i had moved the car. This can only be God's doing, The protector of children, He saved my little boy. Please help me to praise and thank him "
We really need to be careful around this little ones, Please let’s be cautious when about to move a car especially in a house where kids are. You may never know. They can be underneath doing whatever. I've learned my lesson today"

TRUE LIFE STORY
~2.1 mins read
So I have a friend living abroad, He is such a wonderful friend I can count on.
So last year he sent me to carry out some work for him in his home two (his father's compound) he sent me his sister's number and as well sent his sister my number.
I was the one who requested that one member of his family must be around. It went well and along the line the sister started calling me. Sometimes she claimed she called to know how I was doing and we were flowing until she asked me to help her pay her children's school fees.
At first, I couldn't figure out why she did that because her brother is a philanthropist and people can testify. I gave her the money, not up to two weeks she called again requesting for another money to sort something, I sent her the money the second time.
Then the third time she called that their mother wants to speak with me, oh nice , we had a wonderful conversation and she asked for money (the mother).
As soon as I sent the money, she called and started gist me how her son abandoned them with nothing, and how her daughter (the one I was talking with) is suffering to take care of her kids.
The story is not adding up to me, so I told her I will talk to her son abroad. She pleaded I should not tell him because he might see it they are telling me about their family problems. I promised her that I will do it carefully.
So I called the son, I told him I will like if he starts paying his mother monthly, because I know his capacity, I told him to set aside hundred and fifty thousand every month for his mother.
He was surprised and appreciated my advice, but because he trusted me, he gave me his email password to check his statements of account, so I discovered he started paying his mother hundred thousand every month for the past six years. It was 50k before he upgraded it to 100k.
He told me that when his sister came back from his husband's house, he sent him money twice to start up a business and he was the one paying her children's school fees.
In fact the other of his sisters, he was the one doing 70% of payment in their husband's house.
I saw all the receipts. I couldn't believe my eyes.
So I called the mother, I started by telling her that I don't like lies, I was disappointed.
She now started crying, she told me she needs her son back, that his wife took everything from them. That the moment he got married, she lost a son.
That her son used to buy everything for his sisters including underwear, but as soon as he got married, everything stopped.
