"If na like this God dey treat you, he for don terminate you since oo. Doctor kene you too just look at God. Look at God."

"Over familiarity . It’s cool to set boundaries."

@AbeniAde_ said:

"I feel you should have just said No and let it go instead of terminating his appointment. That being said, people should learn boundaries and be content with what they have. I have worked with a philanthropist and a rich man before and I didn’t for once ask him for anything. Even when I was in need, I didn’t ask him. I respect boundaries and I am always content with what I have. Things I got from him was given willingly not like I asked for them which I appreciated."
