Ndi beanyi
I hope your day has started in a
memorable way? It was a weekend full of activity for me and I hope you enjoyed
yours as well. As I do regularly, I greeted you in Igbo language of the South-Eastern
part of Nigeria it means “my people”. May this week be a blessed week for
everyone.
There is story about a blacksmith;
the man was tenaciously hitting a particular spot as he was trying to get a
shape out of the metal that he was casting. He did this till he got the desires
result. Two things happened thereafter; his apprentices understood that their
boss had a particular shape in mind he wanted and his customers saw his craft
as distinct from what his contemporaries did. This led to this Yoruba saying: “Alagbede to n lu irin loju kan na, oni ohun
to n wa”
