A lizard that falls to ground from the top of a tall Iroko tree and still alive said to itself that if nobody hails it, it will hail itself. Saying this in Yoruba would have been so sweet. That’s how deep meanings of communication are lost in translation. That’s by the way. This illustration with the lizard can be applied to men. In spite of the huge contributions and sacrifices of men to the society, they are less appreciated or celebrated. If no one will blow our trumpet as men, why can’t we blow it by ourselves?
