I am wiser now, I am stronger now. Thank God we don't look like what we've been through. We'll give it another go again in 2019. I may be down but I'm not out!
@OlatonaOlatona1@DantePasusu@thagaucho Where's Lanre FBI these days? He was another mad defender at the time. Eyimba was a well balanced team. They had to bribe Logo "FIFA" Francis. The winner was obvious
THE END WE NEVER SAW COMING:
A GENERATION OF MEN WAKING UP TOO LATE
There is a truth almost all men only understand when they are older, a truth that arrives with a sting: 99.9% of us totally misjudged our fathers.
Many of us grew up closer to our mothers.
We heard her frustrations first.
We saw her sadness before we ever understood its source.
We believed her stories before we had the maturity to question them.
And slowly, quietly, we formed a picture of our fathers that was incomplete.
We thought he stayed out late because he didn’t care.
We thought he worked late because he didn’t love us.
We thought he kept to himself because he was a cold heartless man.
Nobody told us he worked late so we could have shoes he never owned.
Nobody told us the reason he looked tired most times wasn’t alcohol, it was responsibility.
Nobody told us he didn’t choose silence; he chose peace in a world that demanded strength from him every single day.
Nobody told us that the little he kept for himself came after everyone else had eaten.
Nobody told us that the roof over our heads was not “basic duty” it was sacrifice.
Nobody told us he carried storms we never saw.
We were too young to know truth.
Too naïve to see nuance.
Too quick to inherit someone else’s anger.
And now, look around.
A new generation of men is living the exact same story.
Men who promised themselves they would “be better fathers.”
Men who swore they would “never be like their dads.”
Men who gave their families more than their own fathers ever could; better schools, better homes, better food, better opportunities, better lives.
Men who carried the world and called it love.
But here they are now……sadly living the same loneliness their fathers died with.
The same silence.
The same emotional distance from their own children.
The same feeling of being unseen in their own homes.
The same exhaustion from providing while feeling unnecessary.
The same ache of realizing you gave everything and somehow still became the villain in the story.
It is only now, in this season of life, that many men whisper the words they once mocked:
“My father was not a weak man. He was a tired man.”
They finally understand that what they called “coldness” was actually worn-out patience.
What they called “distance” was actually pressure.
What they called “uncaring” was actually sacrifice no one bothered to explain.
A wise old man once said: “You will know your father was right the day life puts you in his shoes.”
And that day has arrived for many.
This is not about blaming anyone.
This is about acknowledging the wounds we inherited, the truths we ignored and the patterns we now see repeating in our own lives.
The lonely end of good men did not begin with us.
We are simply the first generation willing to speak it aloud.
Maybe the lesson is this: Men must learn to take care of themselves, not just everyone else.
Men must learn their value before the world teaches them otherwise.
Men must learn to speak before silence destroys them.
Men must learn that strength without support is just slow dying.
A generation of men is waking up today and finally whispering:
“Maybe my father wasn’t the problem.
Maybe he was the warning.”
Africa must end the exports of its raw materials. The export of raw materials is the door to poverty. The export of value-added products is the highway to wealth. And Africa is tired of being poor.
