THE HUNTER

THE HUNTER 
There is no better hunter than Empty Heart. 
Like the ocean tides, it washes all footprints on the sandy shore.
Leaning on every vacant shoulder in sight, at times, it falls victim of deliberate vacancy.
Lost in the wild, seeking the kind of love between fish and water;
Empty Heart wanders in solitude. 

Alas! Hypocrisy no longer kill slaves, it became their function; 
Curses no longer harm thieves, it used to haunt them; 
Betrayal is a component of contemporary friendship 
And the streets man used to walk is no longer the same. 
Thus, will Empty Earth ever have a true catch?

The days have changed, even things we touch ain't real any longer. 
Humanity seemingly exhausted the object that Empty Heart seeks. 
Will the hunt ever yield? 
Yes, Empty Heart will soon find an empty heart to fill the empty space.

ADIEU 2018

ADIEU 2018

Being a soldier in the Army of Fate, I focused on the last order - 'move forward'.
Paying 111% attention to the move, I proceeded in time and space.
Owing to a weakness of the human race - nebulous knowledge of the future, my place at this point in time I did not envisage.

THE FIRST MAJOR SIN IN ISLAM

THE FIRST MAJOR SIN

ASSOCIATING PARTNERS WITH ALLAH
(SHIRK)
The greatest of all major sins is Shirk,  and it is of two types;
The first is to believe Allah has an equal, to worship something or someone other than Him,  such as a stone,  tree, star, sun, moon, a prophet, a saint, or an angel. This is the greatest Shirk, which Allah said;

BIRTHDAY GIFT

Birthday gift from a poet...

I sold off my cow forgetting I'm in need of breast milk to quench my thirsty heart.
And he didn't mind of heart with my might even insight as he chose to lay the pace for my alliance not to race.
Alone in the chronicle of fate and he gave the mend to sew my tattered clothes.
And he didn't mind of dating eyes of the beholder way long.
He's a human in love with animals and felt equality in treatment in mind.
And I felt like him keeping tip on.
He's a bard and not a bald with naked road on top of the road and I wouldn't mind of putting words on this day even if this keypad misspells my words.
And the right to write wanna turns, to write to right in my front face.
He himself would be surprised when reading my wishes as needn't to wish long because in his name, wish locks in, Onawola opened the door with the blissful keys bundle with joy, happiness, blessings to be all...
Around the corridor of your life and this day should turnover in forms of normal turn as you have wished.
At first for yourself in comfort and this piece I'm piecing isn't what it's likely to be your wishes and best.
Wishes are all I could wish for you, for one who tabbed on equality treatment for animals as CSR and the ambassador of IVSA who keeps interest in intelligence and  ability to enhance the care for animals and go beyond .
The ordinary man through DVM as a case study and this write is just writing itself when I wanted
To wish Dr. Onawola his wishes.

WHAT IS A MAJOR SIN?

THE MAJOR SINS

The major sins are those acts which have been forbidden by Allah in the Qur'an and by His Messenger in the sunna and which have been made clear by the actions of the first righteous generations Muslims, the companions of the Prophet.

OTIOSE WINGS

OTIOSE WINGS

Humility is never equal to stupidity.
Let the words out again.
Pomposity is never equal to unicity.
Let the breeze call the rain.

Initiative Q

Initiative Q is an attempt by ex-PayPal guys to create a new payment system instead of credit cards that were designed in the 1950s. The system uses its own currency, the Q, and to get people to start using the system once it's ready they are allocating Qs for free to people that sign up now (the amount drops as more people join - so better to join early). Signing up is free and they only ask for your name and an email address. There's nothing to lose but if this payment system becomes a world leading payment method your Qs can be worth a lot. If you missed getting bitcoin seven years ago, you wouldn't want to miss this.

Here is my invite link: https://initiativeq.com/invite/BbGDbSfT7

 This link will stop working once I’m out of invites. Let me know after you registered, because I need to verify you on my end.

WHAT TYPE OF FRIENDS SHOULD YOU KEEP?

BE WISE IN CHOOSING YOUR FRIENDS!

Allah the most high said, "Now, then, we have none to intercede (for us), Nor a single friend to feel (for us).'' (Ash - Shu'araa 100-101)

Al-hasanul Basri said regarding the above verses in his tafsir: this would be on the day of Judgement after the dwellers of Jannah have been admitted therein and the dwellers of Hell have been admitted

RINDERPEST SERIOUS GAME

HOW BIG IS THE RINDERPEST PROBLEM?
Rinderpest, although eradicated from Nigeria in 1974 after the JP15 campaign, was reintroduced into Sokoto state in 1980 and again into Borno state in 1983. The latter outbreak spread rapidly throughout Nigeria and severely reduced the cattle population. An estimated one million cattle were lost. An outbreak occurred at the Maiduguri zoo, in Borno state, in January 1983 and killed 15 elands and six sitatungas. In March 1983, rinderpest appeared in Yankari game reserve in adjoining Bauchi state and caused mortality in several species of wildlife. A total of 207 buffalo, 20 warthog, eight waterbuck and two bushbuck carcasses were recovered (Shanthikumar SR, et al.).
Rinderpest will doubtlessly wreak havoc on multiple aspects of the existence of region(s) that would be affected seeing as even their economy will certainly suffer a setback if allowed to return. On a larger scale, the return of rinderpest will induce an upset in global health such that resources would have to be deployed to ensure the containment of the outbreak by concerned governments and international health organizations. In places where cattle rearing is a major occupation of many (which includes a significant fraction of Africa), rinderpest would invoke unbearable economic loss directly or indirectly on individuals (of the human population) if allowed to set into the cattle population by any means; food security would go into turmoil in such places and the availability of animal protein would fall drastically...
To ensure rinderpest remains in the past, the World Organization for Animal Health (OIE) developed a serious game to prepare veterinarians, veterinary students and laboratory technicians for a possible outbreak. Aside the fact that a reward is attached to winning the challenge, personally, I consider it dutiful for veterinarians, veterinary students and veterinary laboratory technicians to support the OIE in this cause and engage themselves in this game with the purpose of making sure that rinderpest never returns.

EMOTIONAL IMMUNITY

EMOTIONAL IMMUNITY

My fragile heart was hit hard
At a time when war had fled,
When all colors go unchecked except red;
Through my eyes I bled
So the world may hear the words unsaid.
