My Wedding Invitation- Final Part


"I know you're angry which is understandable. But I want you to know that I don't have a hand in this". I wanted to cut in, but I couldn't look into her face after the smile I saw the other time. If I won't implicate myself here, I must control the left side of my brain o. "Maybe I should have changed my Facebook password since I lost my phone. The person must have logged in through my phone, but what still baffles me is what the person is aiming at? What does he want to gain from troubling us this much?"

I swallowed saliva. Did she say us? Her voice was so different from the one I had been hearing since morning. It was so soothing that it melted my heart. The anger I was forming evaporated and sweat started gathering on my nose. Then she continued "I'm sorry for all I said in the morning. I won't sue your ass, she chuckled". I wanted to steal a look at the chuckling face, but I knew she would notice, so I kept my straight face.

Then she stood up and went towards a calendar. She walked elegantly. The confidence she exhumes almost suffocated me. Mheeen, this is a woman! She suddenly turned back and caught me stealing glances again. She smiled. Lanre what is wrong with you. Concentrate on being angry! "I don't even know your name", she chuckled again. I kept quiet. After some seconds, she asked "Won't you say anything?" I gathered my breathe and replied quietly "What do you want me to say? My parents think I'm getting married in 2 weeks. My friends feel betrayed. What do you want me to say?"

"It will all be resolved, trust me". "Trust you? I don't know you" "My name is Tolu." She moved towards me and offered a handshake. I wanted to grab the hand, but I didn't. "Is this part of the set up?" "I didn't set you up. I'm just trying to have fair conversation with you". "This conversation is not fair. Nothing is fair here until I know what is happening". I stood up and left the office. Holy Ghost, help me now. Why was I sweating in an air conditioned room?

Where is Pastor sef. I walked back to the auditorium and I saw pastor, the media head and this very usher again. I couldn't hear their discussion, but I knew it must be about this same mysterious Facebook post. I had stood at the door for a while when Tolu came in too. The expression on her face changed immediately she saw that Pastor was with the media head and the usher. "Joyce?" She started walking very fast towards them. I followed her.

Who is Joyce? It must be the usher. She has started doing busybody again. Tolu was visibly angry. "Pastor, what is Joyce doing here?" "This is the house of God. All His children are welcome." Joyce couldn't look up. "Well, we found out that the picture was uploaded through an iPhone and I could remember that you and Joyce were very close till two weeks ago when you had a fight and I know Joyce has an iPhone.

I interrogated her and she has confessed that she did the picture through Photoshop and uploaded it. She said you once told her your Facebook password when you were still friends. And she used Bro Lanre's picture because she has been trying to get his attention, but he is always too serious in church. Now, I want two of you to go back to my office and wait for me. I want to discuss with Joyce alone."

The lion I saw in Tolu before the service had returned. I'm glad it's not directed towards me this time sha. I quietly followed her back to the pastor's office. She couldn't sit. She fumed as she paced up and down. Now, it's my turn to try to start a conversation. "Calm down. At least, now we know what happened." She didn't even look at my side.

I scratched my head. What else can I say o. Okay, let's try this: "You need to change all your passwords." I switched on my data and offered her my phone. She collected it and sat beside me. Her perfume filled the air around me. I took a deep breathe. A very deep one.

When she finished, I apologized for all I had said. Then, she smiled. That same smile. I froze. Her voice jerked me back to life- "Bro Lanre, you're no longer stealing glances at me, you're now staring. There is a babe waiting for you upstairs". "Is someone jealous?" She smiled again. Dear LORD, where is pastor?

Oranmiyan (Part 3: Origin of Yoruba)

  Our journey will begin by identifying who the Yoruba people are. From the stories and relics of the children of the tribe, it is obvious that the projenitors of the tribe were deeply rooted in sorcery. Especially those who constitute the royal families. Their blood lines is soaked in idolatry, divination and sorcery. They know how to access principalities and powers and learn their worship modes. There are many stories about the origin of the Yoruba race. The Yoruba race has two major stories about their origin. One is supernatural. The other is natural The supernatural or divine one said that the supreme being, God, sent a god- Obatala to come and create the earth, but he got drunk and God had to send another god- Oduduwa. This is what some people hold. This school of thought has several loopholes chief of which is that Oduduwa entered Ile Ife in 11AD, but Ife Arts, according to carbon dating goes way back as 500BC which means that there was life in Ile Ife before Oduduwa came in.

Oranmiyan (Part 4: Lamurudu vs Oduduwa)

After being forced out of his land, Lamurudu settled in Egypt for some time where he deepened his knowledge in sorcery. He learned several patterns of rituals which still exists in some parts of Ijebu today. At that time, the Egyptians have developed so well in the worship of their gods who were originally men. The concept of gods begins with a man encountering a demonic prince who is looking for obeisance from men. These princes have the same goal as Lucifer. Once they begin to get attention from a man, the man begins to take up their (dark) nature because it is a law in the spirit realm that whatever you behold, you become. The consecration of these men to the worship of the princes led to the reproduction of the abilities and characteristics of the prince in the man, so the man becomes great among other men. Most of these men takes up the name of the prince that they worship such that when the man dies, you can keep calling his name and the prince responds to your request thereby es

Oranmiyan (Part 5: The gods of Egypt)

During the sojourn of Lamurudu in Egypt, what was going on in Egypt at that time was similar to what happened in Genesis 6:1-2 where demonic entities found a way to reproduce themselves in women to establish a race of beings that were not fully humans. These creatures were very big that they were called Giants. They had 6 fingers and toes and unusual strength. Bible refer to them as Nephilims which means mysterious beings who are large and strong. Some other meanings called them fallen ones. They had supernatural abilities and they preyed on full humans. The situation was like what was portrayed in Harry Potter that had pure bloods, half bloods, mud bloods and muggles. The pure bloods were the witches whose both parents are also witches, half blood is a witch with one parent as witch, mud blood has both parents as normal people and muggles are non witches. At that time in Genesis 6, the Nephilims had created another race on earth that paralleled the pure humans. This what why God sent
