TWO DIFFERENT HOUSES (1) During my first stint staying away from home, I had free accommodation with some other young men in the University. It was the home of a late relative of ours in their hometown- a very large house. I was the first to arrive. While settling down and putting my things in place, I stumbled on a pack of condoms, empty bottles of alcoholic drinks and a stack of X-rated video discs. I closed that…

Engagement
20 posts held, back to 8 June 2026 — the reader has not yet reached the start of this channel’s public history, so older posts may sit further back, unread. Read across 1 pageof Telegram’s post history, 20 posts per page.
Nothing published in the last 30 days. ERR and ER are rolling 30-day measures, so there is nothing to compute — we hold 20 posts for this entry, the most recent from 4 July 2026. An engagement rate over an empty window would be a number about nothing.
Reaction mix
37 reactions across 18 posts, in 3 distinct kinds. The most used accounts for 94.6% of them.
| Reaction | Count | Share | Share, drawn |
|---|---|---|---|
| ❤ | 35 | 94.6% | |
| 👍 | 1 | 2.70% | |

No sentiment is inferred, and none should be read in. This table is ordered by count and by nothing else. Emoji do not carry stable meaning across languages or communities — 🙏 is thanks in one channel and mourning in another — so we publish which ones were pressed and how often, and pass no judgement on what an audience meant by them.
Precision. Telegram publishes reaction counts per emoji and short-forms each one — 4.34K, 1.2M — so any single kind at or above 1,000 reaches us at three significant figures, and only counts below 1,000 are exact. The shares above are ratios of those figures and carry the same error. This is also why the total here can differ slightly from a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page: both are sums of the same rounded parts, taken over samples with different edges.
Coverage. Reactions were read on 18 of the 20 sampled posts in this sample. Summed by Telegram’s own count on each post — not by adding up the per-emoji breakdown above — those same posts carry 37reactions in total: the kind of figure the paragraph above means by “a reaction total printed elsewhere on the page”.
Measured over the 20 most recent posts we hold, published 8 June 2026 to 4 July 2026, using the newest reading held for each. Telegram Stars are excluded: they are a payment, not a reaction, and they have their own section.

DENY THE OLD TENANT ACCESS Many years ago, I was house-hunting. Eventually, I got an apartment. The agent told me that the old tenant would move out and I would have access. Some days later, we both went to the property for inspection. I paid the annual rent. When he was certain the old tenant had moved, he handed me the house keys. After I was granted access, I went there for the first time to assess the extent of…

I HAVE BEEN PAID FOR He walked up to the stand where they sell roasted plantain (boli). He saw one that was big and really lovely. He asked the seller, “How much is this roasted plantain?” She replied that it was a thousand and five hundred naira but told him it would take a moment before it got done. He handed over two thousand naira. He told the seller that he would be back to pick the roasted plantain. He wanted…

BIG GRAMMAR; BIG TROUBLE!!! I was still in secondary school. I desired to spend my holiday with my granduncle in Abeokuta. I already knew he would visit or send his driver with a Christmas package. That was my opportunity to travel with him or return with the driver. I told my parents about it, but I noticed hesitation on my mum’s part. A day before the trip, I noticed that Mum kept giving me extra house tasks that…

SPEAK TO IT AND NOT ABOUT IT I noticed a mouth sore on my upper lip. It was quite painful. I was even telling Irewamiri about it. I was asking what would normally cause that to happen. I wanted to know which nutrient I lacked. The sore was quite painful, but I just assumed it was going to heal. One night, while I was praying and listening to the word of God, I heard it clearly: “Many people will be giving explanati…

LET IT SHOW ON YOU Many years ago, when I got a “Yes” from a lady, I went on a trip the same day. I boarded the bus to Eruwa. As I got down at the junction to the house and was strolling home, I heard a familiar voice behind me calling my name. I turned back, and it was my brother. I was shocked because he was meant to be in Ibadan. He said to me, “I was in the same bus that brought you from Ibadan. I was sitting a…

FITNESS HELPS RECOVERY John Bevere shared a personal story. In his own words: While in Hawaii, I climbed a wall to take a picture. When I did, I pulled a group of muscles in my knee and could not walk for four days. “If you had been exercising regularly,” the physical therapist told me, “this would not have happened. Because your muscles are out of shape, you are prone to injury.” Once I was able to walk, another e…

DEAR FATHER, MAY YOUR NAME BE GREAT I got a call from my dad. He needed to see me. When I got to him, he said, “I called to tell you that I have another child outside”. I just ended up bursting into laughter. He tried to tell me that he was serious. The more he tried, the more I laughed. He eventually raised the matter he wanted to discuss with me. He then asked, “So you did not even believe me”. I laughed again. Da…

YOU CAN FATHER FROM REST My Dad walked into the boys' room that Sunday Evening. He came to call on us for the usual Sunday outreach in church. The response from my brother that day was shocking. He told my dad that he was not interested in going to church that evening. In my mind, I was already shivering and pitying him. “How dare you turn down Daddy’s call for church?” My Dad’s response that day shocked me more th…

HAND IT OVER AND CLIMB HIGHER We went on a family outing to a tourist site. We had to climb the rock. I was carrying our daughter through the different phases. At one point, it was quite tricky. The tour guide had gone ahead of us. He needed his two hands and feet to climb. There was no way I was going to climb while carrying my daughter, also. I had to make a quick decision- I handed her over to the tour guide whi…

THE DADDY WE RAN FROM While growing up, we had a father in the neighborhood who was quite tough. He is a Medical Doctor. Whenever we see his car coming, we would dodge and find another route. Once he gives you a ride, you will begin to recite the multiplication table till you get to your destination. We thought that he was simply too tough. He would not allow us to have our fun as we desired. As you can imagine, he…

"DADDY, WE ARE MAKING FOOTPRINTS" We sat outside enjoying the breeze in the evening and at the same time watched the children play. I saw my girls standing in a corner pouring water from a container to their feet. They would then walk some steps intentionally. They returned to pour water on their feet again and repeated the process. In my curiosity, I asked them both about what they were doing. I wanted to stop the…

Showing the 12 most recent of 20 posts we hold for @compassdaily. View and reaction counts are the latest single reading for each post, not a live figure, and a recent post is still accumulating both. A view count marked ≈ was rounded by Telegram before we ever saw it — t.me prints views in full below 1,000 and to three significant figures above, so ≈1,200,000 means somewhere between 1,150,000 and 1,249,999. Unmarked counts are exact. Text is reproduced from the public post preview and truncated for length.
