Between Oga Yenne, Comr Kingsley Umanah, Esther Joseph And The Rest Of Us

By Ewa Okpo Esq.

What is happening between Oga Yenne, Kingsley and Esther Joseph is classically everything (the author of Breaking The Jewish Code) Perry Stone wrote about in THE JUDAS GOAT. We have to be very careful with the people we relate close with and how we relate closely with people for the protection of our collective future.

I ran into this book at a bookstore close to Winners Chapel at Ikot Ebido, Uyo some 8 or 9 years ago and I’ve never stopped applying it’s principles to my “mind your business” resolve.

Before I got the book, I operated strictly on the Italian Code. Don’t concern yourself with it except it’s your business to know because what you know can cost you or earn you some pretty expensive sh!t.

I remember how one of my close friends almost quarreled with me some years ago because I kept telling him I didn’t have the information he was asking me about some politicians he figured I was close to. He’d eventually get some of the information elsewhere and feel I didn’t trust him enough to confide in him.

One day, I specifically had a sit down with him where I explained my modus operandi. I don’t want to know what you don’t want to tell me by yourself. And even when you start telling me, if it’s not what I’d like to know I’ll simply cut you off. Except you’re telling me as your lawyer.

I don’t want us to put ourselves in the awkward position of having to tell things about ourselves sometimes in the future. The fewer people know these things about you the faster you figure out who let it out when it eventually gets out.

I hear people brag about how they know so, so and so, so person to their bedroom and I’m like “is that a thing to be pride of?” Don’t you know that you’re endangering yourself? If some marauding elements need to get information about that person today, don’t you know you’d be abducted and pressured to cough up the little you know?

Now, I see people writing things about their former good friends and I’m wondering “couldn’t they have been close friends without knowing these intimate and sensitive things about themselves?”

I know a guy who can’t hang out with you without asking you some personal things about you. Every time he does it with me, I just ignore him or redirect his attention elsewhere. One day, he frontally accused me of not liking to tell him things and I frontally told him it’s because those things are none of his business. “Oga, drink Jameson, stand up go your house. If I want make you sabi things about me, I go write autobiography sell give you. I no go tell you free of charge”. It turns out it’s just his nature to want to know things. And he found out it’s just my nature not to know things like that.

Dear friends, restrain yourself from knowing too much about your friends if you know you cannot restrain yourself from spilling them at the slightest provocation. Even those of us who are excellent at Omerta still avoid the temptation to know because you never can know what you’re capable of until you find yourself in an unexpected situation to find out yourself.

And if you must confide in someone, like Perry Stone advises, be sure of the person’s “third chair” personality.
