| An incident transpired when Muhammad Ali’s daughters arrived at his home wearing clothes that were quite revealing.
This piece might interest, inspire, and elicit a change of attitude to at least one person. An incident transpired when Muhammad Ali’s daughters arrived at his home wearing clothes that were quite revealing.
Here is the story as told by one of his daughters:
“When we finally arrived, the chauffeur escorted my younger sister, Laila, and me up to my father’s suite. As usual, he was hiding behind the door waiting to scare us. We exchanged many hugs and kisses as we could possibly give in one day.
My father took a good look at us. Then he sat me down on his lap and said something that I will never forget. He looked me straight in the eyes and said, “Hana, everything that God made valuable in the world is covered and hard to get to.
Where do you find diamonds? Deep down in the ground, covered and protected.
Where do you find pearls? Deep down at the bottom of the ocean, covered up and protected in a beautiful shell.
Where do you find gold? Way down in the mine, covered over with layers and layers of rock. You’ve got to work hard to get to them." | | |

| This is not about insulting anybody for making comment, it's about saying what you feel is the truth.....Drugs, kidnapping and the likes are becoming something else in Nigeria and we have to drop sentiments and tribalism and 'call a spade a spade'...... These things do not speak well of Nigerians hence we must learn to condemn evil regardless of who is involved,,,, it's quite unfortunate that tribalism has so beclouded our sense of judgement that we don't see anything wrong in crime if it's committed by our tribal people instead we insult people who are saying the truth and call them names,,,, Tribalism and sentiment is the major reason why government cannot successfully fight against corruption and crimes in Nigeria.... Each time anyone is involved in crime and is to be dealt with his/her tribal people will start crying foul and bring tribalism into it.....we cannot actually reach any meaningful height with this kind of attitudes.....It's true that we are all Nigerians yet we have our different names and we hail from different families and tribes, if you don't want the name of your family or tribe to be drag to the mud tell your family members and tribal people to stay away of anything that has the capacity of tarnishing your image
Well said.Thank you | | | |
