Egbon is it not too early in the day to be looking at NEPA bills? Those guys will give you heart attack with their estimated bills o. Give light for 2 weeks and charge for 2 months. Is that not plain yahoo yahoo in broad daylight?
Haha. Mazi it is not NEPA bill. Don’t mind those guys, I now use prepaid. Mi o le wa kú. They can’t use their rubbish bill to kill me. I am just going through my documents to see all my assets, hehe, you know, maybe I will follow the footsteps of my able young governor to declare my own.
Hahaha. Egbon, who do you want to declare to now, ehn? Your family? Abi you are a politician and I did not know?
Ah! Mazi it’s not that jare. Don’t you see how that young man is worth more than 40 billion naira? Old man like me, what do I have? Some plots of land in the village and in Ibadan and some money in my accounts. Life is not fair o.
Hahahhaah. That is what is disturbing you? Did you invest in oil? Do you come from a rich family? Even me that invested in containers know that oil is more lucrative in this country. Take it easy o. No be everybody dey get that kind opportunity. If anything, we should commend his actions. Our promise and fail president has refused to do his own for almost five years now.
Ehn, I commend him o. But me I’m from a royal family and I don’t have a fraction of what he has.
Hahaha. Almost every Yoruba person is a royal blood or is married to one, is that not so? How does that translate to money? Speaking of Yoruba people, your people are now very outspoken about this RUGA settlement and herdsmen issues.
Yes o. It is getting too much o. Too many killings and kidnappings. See what happened to Funke Fasoranti. We have to speak up ni o.
OPC, CAN, CNG, Igbo coalition, and even Asari Dokubo are talking about it. FG needs to do something about it before it becomes something else. Even our soldiers are tired of doing their jobs now. I wonder how we can cope, Chineke nna.
Ah! Hahaha. Did you hear about the rogue soldiers?
Which ones? The ones that refused to fight?
No.
The ones that drove recklessly in Lagos and caused accident?
Ah. No, I didn’t hear of that one sef.
Hmmm. Which ones then? Tell me biko.
These ones were assigned as security detail for a certain politician ni o. They now stole billions the man was carrying about and ran away. O ti o!
Chukwu abiama! This one is funny. What is he doing carrying that kind of money about? This is a case of thief robbing thief. Chineke, this is action film o.
Pure American film ni o. Nollywood cannot do this one.
Just like the one happening at the Atiku tribunals okwaya? Today a witness agrees that he was paid $10,000 to change election results, tomorrow another witness is denying anything happened. Plenty drama everywhere.
Naija for you. Plenty tragicomedy. Shuffering and Shmiling. Laugh and cry.
Is it not how House of Reps wants to shut down Edo Assembly? Talk about pot calling kettle black. Na wa o.
Shebi it is unconstitutional? Make we dey see na. Unless they wan to be like the workers in Bauchi civil service, ghosts that are still getting paid.
That one is everywhere in Nigeria o. From Federal to grassroots. We are not serious in this country, true to God.
Wetin man pikin go do? You see how AFCON take end àbí?
Algeria o! After all the gra gra, Senegal come lose. Chai.
At least Super Eagles no come back empty-handed. We collect bronze and Ighalo still collect golden boot too. More than we expected from them, not so?
True talk, but what is this talk of retirement from Mikel and Ighalo, ehn? What will be left of the team? Not nice.
Such is life o. They want to move on. Mikel has tried sha. I can’t say exactly the same for Ighalo even though he has already beaten Yekini’s record.
Nwanne m, ọ ga dị mma. E go better. I want enter town soon. We go talk later, okwaya?
Kosi wahala, ọrẹ mí.
