You folks will assume that I’m having a really unhealthy fixation on this paddy, writing about him week after week. My folks, even I’m drained, however the man simply retains doing and doing.
Last Monday, it was colloquium o. Before, once they speak about colloquium, one used to consider these historical politicians that have actually achieved one thing in our nation – them Awolowo, Azikiwe and even his father. So once I heard colloquium beside his title, I simply fell from my mattress. Kai!
Truly there was colloquium o and virtually everyone of their sycophantic greatest have been within the room o. From the Olu of Warri to my “na we dey here” Sanwo-Olu, all stuffed up the large Eko Hotels venue.
It was a kind of issues that you see in North Korea – an enormous image of the chief staring from a large display screen, staring down at his folks, and the chief holding the microphone with a protruding pot stomach and thanking his folks for “honouring him in this way” and then one “tambolo” would rush to the stage and prostrate, and the chief would say – ohhhh, he did this by himself, and I thank him, like he was not despatched.
Kai, Nigeria ehn, we’re one massive owambe social gathering. Come and see sitting governors bowing and scrapping for an unelected son of the president. Come and see first-class conventional rulers, first-class politicians and the remainder.
Then one journalist referred to as me – Edgar, other than being the son of the president, what has he achieved? The different day, I noticed him at one ex-governor’s home; I simply hissed and eliminated my face. Another pal referred to as, “Wow, Seyi is the new face of leadership, kai, he is doing so well, like father, like son.” And to cap it, his father, whereas nonetheless attempting to elucidate to us that he is not going to be coming to Shomolu for campaigns, managed to squeeze out, “Well done, Seyi, for contributing to national development.”
Mbok, my ache is that I used to be not invited each to the colloquium and the after social gathering that would have adopted and that is why I’m offended. So, you folks ought to go away me o and be doing all your “yama yama” colloquium with out inviting me; I wish to die right here from jealousy. Lol!
