OUR PEOPLE SAY
when the Pot has to go to the Cup.”
Cletus Obahor
“We leave red spittle in the mouth and spit out the white one!”
“We use sense to kill the rat in a water clay pot so as not to break the pot and kill the rat!”
“Parable is used to communicate with a native; it is only with a stranger that ‘direct-talk’ is used!”
Moral–No matter how blunt and straight-forward we are, there is a time for diplomacy!.

Courage to speak out the truth, clearly and point-blank, without fear of and favor to nobody or any special interest is your nurtured human right, self-respect and the ultimate respect and service anyone can give to his/her alma mater, community, nation and the world-at-large. People, nurture courage and uphold Truth courageously to the last drop of your blood, whenever necessary, at least, for the sanctity and sanity of humanity. Tell the Truth As It Is, point-blank and before the eyes of all.
