An oxgoad is a traditional farming tool used to guide and control oxen.
Oxens are domesticated cattle, typically castrated male bovines used for draft purposes for pulling carts, plows and other heavy loads.
They are also used for transportation purposes, used for carrying goods or people from one place to another.
In the Bible, at Judges 3:31, Oxgoad was mentioned as a tool used by Sham’gar the son of A’nath to defeat 600 Philistine men to save Israel.
History records during ancient civilization oxgoads were used in Mesopotamia, Egypt and Greece to control and guide oxen for plowing and other agricultural tasks, and in medieval Europe Oxgoads were a common tool for agriculture.
In many traditional communities, oxgoads were hand made from wood or other materials and passed down through many generations.
Have you seen an oxgoad where you live ?
Oxgoads may be an ancient tool used for farming but it’s significance is worth reminiscing.

While facial and body symmetry like full lips, high forehead, broad face, small chin, small nose, short and narrow jaw, high cheek bones, clear smooth and glowy skin, wide bright set of eyes, flat stomach, wide hips, full buttocks, straight and full legs to name but just a few are considered physically beautiful in women.
It would be in your best interest to know being physically beautiful is not enough because beauty can be fleeting, does not guarantee lasting relationships, and is often overshadowed by more important inner qualities such as kindness , confidence, character and shared values.
While physical appearance can make a good first impression , it doesn’t build the sustained connection , mutual respect, and emotional depth necessary for long term success in relationships and personal fulfillment.

THE CITY OF LIGHT

“Let there be light”, Paris took this seriously no wonder it got it’s nickname as the city of light.
Paris is often called “the city of light” La Ville Lumiere for some obvious reasons.
History records during the enlightenment age which was known as a cultural and intellectual movement that emerged in Europe in the 17th and 18th centuries, generally considered to have taken place from the late 1600s to the late 1700s hovering over 1685-1815, Paris was a hub of intellectual and philosophical thought attracting thinkers like Voltaire and Rousseau.
The city has a rich history of artistic and literary innovation, from the impressionists to famous writers like Hemingway and Simone de Beauvoir.
Did you know Paris was one of the first European cities to adopt street lighting, making it a literal city of light in the 17th century ?
Make sure you visit Paris before you leave planet earth.

On 27th August 1985 , a military coup in Nigeria saw General Ibrahim Badamasi Babangida take over the government after overthrowing Muhammadu Buhari.
The bloodless coup cited Buhari’s rigidity and failure to address the country’s economic and social issues.
Some analysts believed it was motivated by IBB’s personal desire and ambition for power while some embraced it as a new dawn and was widely welcomed by Nigerians who were dissatisfied with Buhari’s regime.
The coup was planned and executed by a group of military officers including General Ibrahim Babaginda and new head of state.
General Sani Abacha, a key player in the coup and later the chief of army staff.
Brigadier Joshua Dogonyaro announced the coup on radio and television.
Majors Sambo Dasuki, Abubakar Dangiwa Umar, Lawan Gwadabe, and Abdulmumini Aminu arrested Buhari at gun point.
IBB ruled Nigeria for eight years during which he implemented various economic reforms including the structural adjustment program.
He also created new states and local governments and attempted to transition the country to democracy.
As an imperfect human his regime saw alot of controversies and tongue wagging of course .
