Talebearing24 - Royalty's Testing

             Once upon a time, there was an average man, Ben a farmer, who believed in the importance attached to giving. Whenever he was giving out from the little he had, he would do it wholeheartedly. Even, people around him used to make jest of him because of his state of insufficiency. While Ben did not look at their side but continued with what he was doing to put smiles on the faces of the less privileged.
Many a times, his wife fought with him on his candid philanthropy that was adversely affecting his home but he used to tell her to be patient and he knew what he was doing with the hope that God in heaven would cater and provide for their immediate and futuristic needs. That's how Ben was living his life.
            One day, the king instructed the town crier to go around and tell everyone in the village to assemble at his palace in the sunset time this day for an important message. The town crier did as he was ordered and emphasized that the domesticated rats should hear and tell the bush rats! Everybody must assemble in the palace as ordered! Then the town crier went his way to the palace after delivering the message.
           In the evening, as ordered by the king, everybody had assembled in the palace waiting patiently for the king because no one could dare the order of the king. Few minutes later, the king with his queens came out from the palace to relay the message he had for them so that they could quickly disperse to their various abodes. He said; I was expecting august visitors from our neighboring villages and i needed someone that could voluntarily donate all his or her farm produce in the farm for him: villagers were looking at their faces because they did not expect this kind of selfish request from their king. The weather of the palace was quietly calm, suddenly! Ben rose up from where he was seating and volunteered to donate all his farm produce to the king.
            The other villagers including his wife were seriously staring at him as a foolish man not knowing the king was testing their loyalty and candid generosity. Then the king asked him for the last time if he had finally made up his mind and he said; yes. The King quickly stood up and said he would divide all his belongings into two equal halves and give one part to Ben for his generosity and giving spirit.  Immediately, the king rushed into the palace's hut. All the villagers present in the palace were seriously astonished for what they heard from their king. And they all went to their various abodes. Even Ben could not believe what the king said but later re-thought that the king would never assemble the entire villagers for such an expensive joke.
Two days later, the king's servants from the palace brought many baskets of king's belongings to Ben's hut as promised. That was how Ben and his family reaped the fruit of his giving and became prosperous and famous in this village.

Talebearing24- Testimony's Time



During church service this 16 year old pastor's daughter stood up and said "Praise the Lord". Everybody shouted "Halleluyah". She continued since my tender age of 13, I've been experiencing monthly period with so much pain but now after a series of Bible studies and prayers with Brother Prince our Sunday school teacher in his house; my monthly periods have ceased for more than 3 months now, no more painful menstruation. You can see I am even getting fatter and prettier. "Praise the Lord". The whole church fainted.

A girl went to see a pastor for counseling and she was asked what happened she simply replied 'my boyfriend did a bad thing to me, the pastor asked, did he slap you? She said No, did he beat you? She said No, the pastor hugged her; did he do this to you? She said No, the pastor kissed her; did he do this to you? She said no, the pastor laid her down and had great classic sex with her; did he do this to you? She said No....what did he do then? She said he gave me AIDS. The pastor fainted.

Talebearing24 - What a great loss!



           Why do people hunt the lives of another people? There are many answers to this very ambiguous question! Some people said they are doing this because of money, some said they do it purposely for power while some said they do it out of hatred and annoyance. All these cogent reasons are very acceptable but the reasons aforementioned are not the bases of the ugly incident I am going to narrate as follow:
Tee boy was a very brilliant boy right from primary school to the tertiary institution which made people to like him. Competition among his colleagues to overtake him in the class but no way. Talent was different from capability. He was a different human being when it came to intelligence and understanding agility therefore his counterparts surrendered to fate and sought for educational assistance from him before and after examination. Even during examination on few occasions, he took them tutorial classes in order not to see him as a self-centered fellow.
         Tee boy had won many prizes in the school and became a cynosure of eyes in the school premises pointing at him from far and near for those who were not present on the day of prize given. His name was written in the nooks and crannies of the school as the hero of their time. Every lady wanted to be her friend. Fighting over him in the school and outside the school premises was very common without his knowledge initially but got to his ears later. To the extent that sometimes it became an embarrassment to him and he was trying to be careful and smart and pretended as if he was not the one they were talking about.
In the final year, Tee boy graduated with a first   class upper in Computer Engineering which gave him a golden opportunity to serve in an Automobile Company and was retained after the service year to continue his job. After confirmation, he was given a car of his choice and wardrobe allowance as well as housing allowance. Tee boy was sent to South Africa for one month training on new software introduced into the company for mechanical use.
         Less than a year, Tee boy was able to build a house of his own while planning to get married with Derby, one of his course mates in school. They have been together for three good years before this wedding plan. She was very happy to see that Tee boy was finally hers. The wedding preparations began having picked the wedding date and the concerned people were quickly notified.
In a twinkle of an eye, the wedding day came and the people were celebrating to the fullness because it was

Talebearing24- Blessings in Giving - The Concluding Part

         Co-workers of Sam at work that sent the hired killers tried all their best over the night to connect with them  for the outcome of the operation but it was futile. The news of the unsuccessful operation  of the hired killers became the talk of the town which got to the ears of the senders. They didn't understand how Sam did it! Therefore, they percieved evil things. Their phone calls finally went through to the killers around 11:35am and they were asked to come for an impromptu meeting which they said it could not be possible because they had completely lost their trust in them and asked the gang to convey their information through phone.
        All the efforts of the gang to have a meeting with them proved futile therefore they sent a threatening message to the co-workers of Sam that nothing must happen to Sam that if any evil thing happened to Sam and his family, they would pay the price with their lives. When they recieved this ugly message, they felt scared, helpless and defeated. They were promised that they would not reveal the secret between them if they abided by the condition giving to them.
        This particular gang also called Sam and warned him to be very careful at work. On Monday morning, when Sam resumed to work, his other co-workers were very happy to see him back alive and sympathised with him for the attack and thanked God for his life that was spared praying that such would not happen again. While the senders of the hired killers were not comfortable when they saw Sam and decided to change from their evil ways.

Talebearing24 - Blessings in generosity and Kindness!

          Once upon a time, there was a man called Samson living in a city. Samson was a rich man blessed with two kids- one boy and one girl. His wife, Rebecca, was a famous and prosperous trader. Then Samson was working with a well-known international company in Lagos in a post of Manager and fortunately for him, because of his diligence and dedication to work, he was promoted twice in less than two years. This unbelievable promotion of Sam, as he was called, which had never happened in the history of the Company since its existence made some people that were eyeing this type of promotion in the said company infuriated. Therefore, they connived to seriously deal with him instead of learning their lessons and amending their ways in order to be recognized and promoted later years.
         In his neighbourhood, Sam was a social and generous man taking care of the less privileged people and orphans as well as the widows. This kindness and generosity of him made him famous not only in his vicinity but also in the entire State. A lot of people, one time or the other, had heard of him for his generosity but could not recognize him facially. Sam had not for once stopped his generosity and kindness to people. The more he gave out in kindness and cash; the greater he received from heaven through people. His subordinates at work were not left out in these benefits but there was nothing you could do to people that did not like you. He was only being kind and social to everybody not knowing that there were enemies of progress at his workplace.
         Few months later, there was a call for someone to be nominated for a managerial training abroad. Unanimously, Sam was nominated for a 3-month training in the United Kingdom being the fact that the Company was international having one of its branches in the United Kingdom where the training was taking place.  This good news did not go well with the enemies of Sam at workplace which made them become more angry with him than before and planned to kill him in no time even before he travelled abroad in order to have their ways in the company because they saw him as an obstacle to their success. All their efforts to get him killed before he travelled abroad proved abortive because all the hired killers in the State knew him as their benefactor so they turned down the job.
         They finally decided to execute him immediately he returned from United Kingdom after training. Had it been they had the alternative for carrying out their "barbaric act" in the United Kingdom, they would have gone for it because three months were too long for them to wait. They travelled to another State to seek for help on their wicked mission where they eventually found a

Talebearing24- All that glitters is not gold!

       Once upon a time, there lived a guy called Fred as he was called by his friends, although his full name was Fredrick Kantoga. Fred was someone that liked to live an extravagant life right from his Secondary school days among his friends. He was known for his habitual attitudes. Going by the saying that says" twenty children can never play for twenty years while thirty adults can never play for thirty months", after secondary school, they all departed. Some got admission into the University, some into Polytechnic while some did not further their education because of their  financial incapability. But being the fact that Fred was from a rich and wealthy home, he had all his needs at his feet at any time they were needed so, he didn't know how to be preserved.
       Fred was in year two in the University when he lost his two parents in a very fatal plane crash that claimed one hundred and fifty-six lives. He was seriously disturbed academically and financially and managed to write the Second semester examination. After the burial rites of his late parents, the families of his both parents, being the only child, had meetings with him and promised to stand by him and care for his immediate and futuristic needs to further his education, he was very happy to hear all these promises. As promised, the families contributed a very huge amount of money and saved the money in his bank account with the money he had in his account before the demise of his parents.
        In a blink of an eye, Fred lavisly spent all this money with the hope that that was how the money would be forthcoming. He had never for once thought of how to manage whatever he had at hand. When he completely ran out of money, he started moving from one Uncle to the other and from one Aunt to the other,

Talebearing24- What a Hilarious and True Life Story!

         Once upon a time, there was a girl and her brother attending the same army school. As we all know that soldiers are great disciplinarians. It had been their usual act to brutalize any student that came late to school every morning before school morning devotion. Sometimes, they would ask the offenders to do frog jump, crawling, running on stones barefooted, rolling on the floor, washing the school toilet, beating the offenders on the tongues and fore- fingers and the likes.
         These barbaric, inhumane and painful attitudes of the soldiers made the students to fear them seriously beyond imagination and expectation. Therefore, they came to school in time to avoid any brutality but there was no way students would not be caught coming late to school every morning and they went through these uncivilized punishments from their hands. The older the students, the harder the punishments given to the students. These behaviours were habitual and the students accepted their fate.
          On one fateful morning, a boy called Richard with his younger sister, Bukky came late to
