The Bush Meat Affair

Image
  “How would you love to enjoy the best Bush meat and palm wine we've got in this town with me?”  My friend asked with this disarming glow in his eyes.  “Bush Meat? I don’t understand...”  Don’t get me wrong. I know what a bush meat is. In fact, I have seen people hawking them along the high ways and I know people actually enjoy them at restaurants and joints for traditional or local cuisine. I have nothing against bush meats. It's just that I detest the idea of eating hunted and cooked wild animals. Anyway, since it was a holiday and I was in my adventure mode, I accepted to drink a glass of palm wine while my friend savored his hunted wild animal. We boarded his vehicle and drove off. What I expected to be a short drive turned out to be a missionary journey.

My Christmas Secret

A lot has been said about Christmas. As a Christian and a Catholic, I know that Christmas is about God sending His only son to die for our sins and save us all. I know all about the story of the birth of our savior Jesus Christ. I m sure I must have played Mary or a shepherd back in the days.
