Get saved by Stupidity and Laziness


                                                                           Hello Friends,

Early this year, a friend sent me a link to "HOW STUPIDITY SAVED MY LIFE"  by Okechukwu Ofili. The first thought that came to me was "how can stupidity save a person's life". I sat on my bed drinking a bottle of sprite thinking and trying to imagine ways being stupid can save a person instead of me reading the book. As a result of my laziness when it comes to reading, my head began to spin because I could not think of any way stupidity can save a man's life. This anger curiosity made me read the book. Upon hearing the title I was eager to find out how his life was saved by stupidity. I read the book at a stretch. It made me remain in my bed till I finished reading the book. Each chapter made me more eager to read the next, and the next, and the next. I almost cried when I realized I had gotten to the final chapter. I did not want the wonderful, captivating, mind blowing chapters to end. If you do not have a copy of  "HOW STUPIDITY SAVED MY LIFE" BY OKECHUKWU OFILI, you  are not on planet earth are missing. Go grab your copy in bookstores all over Nigeria.



After a while, news about his second and latest book "HOW LAZINESS SAVED MY LIFE " was all over the radio, internet and everybody's  most Nigerian's lip. I was so excited because after reading OKECHUKWU OFILI'S "HOW STUPIDITY SAVED MY LIFE", I wanted to strap him to a chair  have being on the look out for his second book. In fact I kept on visiting book stores around daily  just to find out if the book was available. The title of his second book got me thinking "how can laziness save someone's life". It got me reading till I finished reading all the pages. The sketches in his book are well explanatory and very educating plus artistic.
How Laziness Saved My Life is a hilarious attack at the way corporations and businesses push themselves and their employees to the brink of stress. With chapters such as “Three Things I Learned From Getting Kicked In The Head” and “Why We Need Fewer Meetings and Managers” Ofili is able to poke fun at the work institution as we know it but at the same time offers up simple solutions for Managers and Entrepreneurs for getting the most out of themselves and their employees without killing anyone in the process. If you have ever been stressed at work or felt like strangling your Manager then you need to get this book. I know most Nigerians like me grew up hearing "No food for lazy man"  so my fellow country people like they say on wazobia f.m Nigerians I am proud to say that this kind of laziness can save your lives, not just any laziness, this book! So go grab a copy of laziness in bookstores.
