“Do u know that the only tree a monkey can’t climb is a Banana tree? Paradoxically, Banana is wat monkeys love the most. This means that anytime Banana is found in the hands of monkeys, it’s most likely a gift. Hence the phrase, “who dash monkey Banana?” was coined.

In the journey of life there are things you want but can never achieve unless you are given. Only by God’s grace, mercy or divine Favour- this’s beyond human control.

Therefore, it’s not of him that willeth or of him that runneth but of God that showeth mercy.”

Beloved of God,

I bought biros and pencils for distribution in the Government Primary School near our TLF Crentre as they resume school this week.

I looked at our purse and saw that if I buy a few only N6700 will be left even after I've paid my TLF dues for 2020. I realised that TLF like every individual, family, church, office, association and company needs/uses money for daily runnings, projects, and savings.

Ok, my heart has been telling me and reminding me that TLF is or was first my mission and in my need to get more hands on, finance and spread I incorporated it. Now it's public owned. I can't even go to sleep out of exhaustion, it has to be a going concern or wind up, God forbid

So I met some children in the school who came to the Centre today and asked how many pupils in their classes? The number they told me in one class alone would gulp a large number of pencils and biros I got over the weekend.

But I can't despair. God willing Thursday before I run to Court as early as 7.50 or 8am God keeping us I'll go and distribute the pencils and biros and any other thing I lay my hands on that can benefit the school this 2nd term.

In TLF the whole of September is dedicated for educational matters, but it is good that every month we reach out to the youngsters and the easiest place to find them is at school or lecture centres (UTME is even in February I think). 

I've a heart for the young and I refuse to be discouraged by money, the lack of it or the amount.

I remember when, how, why and where I started TLF and I know who I walk with, Jesus, Whom has been there all the way. If He could feed 5000 from 5 loaves and 2 fish and have leftovers, He will make a way.

A vast majority of people who own NGOs, Foundations and Trust Funds are very rich in money and/or have support from rich people also.
Am I in that category? All I can do is ... ☺

If as I write I have my own life, personal income and expenditure in one hand, and that of TLF in another hand, and from there plan to run our 2020 budget running into thousands, millions and our building project for our permanent site also running into lots of money and I'm here saying we have barely N6700, how can TLF progress in this New Beginning

Or, _🐵who 🙈dash 🙉monkey 🙊banana?_ 🐒

Story Time

  Lisungu Chieza from Zimbabwe was 26 when she was told in 1996 that she was HIV+. "This started my long journey of coping with being HIV+. My husband died in my arms at home eight months later." Not only did Lisungu have to cope with her own illness and losing her husband, but her husband's family also wrongly blamed her for his death. They came to her house, took away his things, and said, "If those children of yours get sick, don't even call us. We won't have anything to do with them or you." They would not even let her go to her husband's burial. "I gave up a college course I had planned to do. All I thought about was death. I neglected my children and myself." But her mother supported her. Lisungu began to find hope again and joined an HIV support group. Then she started to help others who were also HIV+, and took a college course about HIV-AIDS. She spoke at HIV meetings with the young people in her church. She believes that it is ver...
