By Bisayo Akin-Omogoriola FagbemiThere once was a world renowned rofessor who was known for his perfectly delivered and expository. Lectures.
He has a driver who soon doubled as his P.A
There were so close that they spent more time together even than he spent with his family becoause they were always on he road together enroute different lecture venues.
The driver cum P.A had the priviledge of sitting down under his boss's lecture 'cos he would have had nothing doing to while away time.
One fateful day, they were enroute a very highly paid international lecture when his boss (the prof) suddenly developed. A severe running stomach. By the time they got to the venue, he was visiting the convinience (toiet) inceasantly.
He could have told the organizers that he couldn't continue with the lecture but for the huge amount of money he would loose.
Now, because of the nature of events they had been attending resently, he made sure that his driver wore almost the same quality of suits like his to the extent that those who never met him before always had problems. Diciphering which of the duo was the prof.
This fateful occassion was one of which his personalty was not realy known. Just that his name had transceaded him.
He was in the toilet for the upteenth time when suddenly, his name was introduced. For the lecture to start. The driver, sensing the impending embarrasment quickly swong into action. He stood up to aknowlege the applause that greeted his boss's introduction, sat down again and quickly scanned through his oga's notes. He discovered that the lecture to be delivered is one of his favourites. He had sat under this lecture for " God nows how often"
By the time the prof felt a little comfortable to leave the loo, he was transfixed seeing his driver, an old unlettered man he brought from the village delivering his lecture with rapt profficency and to top it up, he didn't even look at the note for once.
The prof sat down to listen and then the lecture ended.
Now. Questions time, most of the questions asked were familiar to the ones he'd heared audiences ask his oga and so he answered them "with the ease of tossing a coin"
Unfortunately, a very tactical and strange question was asked and then the bubble would have blown but for wisdom ,and creativity. Hear him " that is the simplest question to have ever been asked me in my many years. of delivering lectures. So simple that even this my driver that I brought from the village. Can answer it" he said pointing to the real prof. All cameras turned to that direction and the prof sensing the clue answered the question with all the swagg he could gather. The crowd thinking he was the driver stood up in thunderous applause. And so the lecture ended.
On their way to the car, all the paparazi and pressmen were allover the surposed driver, asking questions and getting wonderful answers not knowing that he was the real prof.My father told me this story just yesterday
Please post what you've learnt from this story. Mine is evident in the title.By Bisayo Akin-Omogoriola Fagbemi

OUR MANY SUB-CONSCIOUS LIES
Even pastors' wives tell 'em
When u greet a new born baby- the mother says "o nni ma" meaning the baby is responding wit a yes ma/sir.
Go greet a family and the wife enters the kitchen to prepare food for you. Everytime she comes out, she says "oku di e" meaning e remain small for the food to done. Your soon no dey finish? Abi na stone u dey cook?
Go visit a family friend and they ask about ur own family members one by one and u reply "they send their greetings" people wey no even know say u dey go there. Some of ur peps self u neva see for like one month. Na by force to reply greetings. Abi "dem dey" neva reach you?
Have u ever wondered how all our dadies used to be first in their class wen they were in high school. Even my daddy and all his friends from the same class. They all come first in the same class. We children discovered this @ a family friendz reunion! Haba! Ao manage?
When a woman born boy, dem go say the husband don win. Na competition?
When u wan discharge a dulling person u always say I "dey come" instead of "I dey go" but why?
To be cont'd
U free to add your own o!
