A 24 years old boy looking out through a trains
window shouted :“ Dad,look ,the trees are going
behind! They are moving very fast” his Dad simply
stared at him with so much Joy and smiled . A
young couple sitting nearby, looked at the 24 years
old boy and thought to themselves ‘ such a pity,
he's so grown up but so childish, he must have a
mental disorder for his father to not be bothered’ .
Suddenly he exclaimed agAIN; “ Dad, look the
clouds are running with us! “ the couple couldn't
resist and said to the old man , “Why don't you
take your son to a good doctor may be a
psychiatrist?” the old man smiled and said,“ I did,
just coming from a doctor but not a psychiatrist
one, we are just coming from the hospital anyway,
let me tell you, my son was blind from birth , he
just got his sight today for the very first time ”,
even though his behavior seems stupid to you, it is
more than a miracle to me.
The young couple just sat down there lost for
words with a mixture of tears and shame in their
eyes. Every body on earth has a story , do not
judge people so fast or jump into conclusion about
their private affairs; you don't know where they are
coming from or what they have to deal with, the
truth behind their private story just might surprise
you.

Ifokore, is a Yam Pottage dish made with Water Yam not White Yam. It is a pottage recipe from the Ijebu people of Ogun state and ijebu from Lagos state , Nigeria. I’m yet to come across an Ijebu person who doesn’t love Ikokore, Ikokore remains a staple in an ijebu household. To really enjoy Ikokore, you’ll need to incorporate as much proteins as you possibly can to enrich it. Your best bets are Shaki, ( intestine ) Ponmo, Chicken, Goat meat, Gizzard, Smoked Turkey, Smoked Fish, Panla, Eja Kika, the more the merrier. The authentic Ikokore recipe requires no blended pepper, it calls for just Scotch Bonnet (Ata rodo) and in some cases, dry ground pepper but I’m not too keen on hot and spicy dishes so I settle for Shombo. Ingredients: A Tuber of Water yam 3 Cooking spoons Palm Oil 4 Cups Chicken or Beef Stock/ Water #100 Shombo/Tatashe or 4Tablespoons dry ground pepper #50 Scotch Bonnet (ata Rodo) Smoked Fish (Eja Kika) or Shawa (Bonga fish)Shredd...
