Police Wahalla

I sat still like an unwanted guest in a dinner party. We were just driving out of a printing press when they asked us to park and asked my friend driving to come down from his car, as a good citizen without ill intentions we obliged and they ask to search the booth of the car, the next thing I heard was "what do you say you do again, you say you are a medical doctor Abi. Where is your i.d card to prove it".
While my friend was still trying to explain himself as a medical laboratory scientist, they concluded he was a fake doctor and ask him to join there own vehicle like he needed a ride from them.

That was how our long journey began driving around the streets of diobu aimlessly in a guise to be heading to nowhere in particular.
I have heard of cases of police unlawfully arresting people but today I witnessed it first hand. These men where fully armed and looked ready to combat any form of attack thrown their way. But no they were actually out for the weak and clueless. Parading the streets look for their victims like predators.

Well to cut the whole story short they let us go with a little fee of bail after burning out the fuel in our car and practically holding us against no crime in particular.
Police men are the shadiest (don't know if that is even a word) public servants ever, they generate schemes on how to get money and being the law, they could hold you up for anything. The most painful part is when their big ogas keep saying they don't collect money and they are road block free, well I beg to differ in all standards, maybe they themselves should come out in disguise and see for themselves how their officers actually work.

I plead to rest my case until further disruption of human peace and personal tranquility (I wish I knew what that means by the way)

I love to take a walk through the minds of people 

Think like they do and fit my tiny legs in their smelly shoes 

One time I did take a long walk in the mind of a mad man 

Picking out every rubbish thought in my head as I walked aimlessly up and down 

I amused myself by every silly thing that goes by 

Then I found the freedom of being carefree without a dime 

Another time I took a walk through the mind of a very rich man 

Spending money I never had 

And built myself a castle I never lived in 

What's the point of struggling to eat 

When my dreams are filled with nothing but a very merry feast 

Although I couldn't walk too far to fulfil my fantasy 

Cause reality slapped me in the face with a rumble in my tummy 

This time I took a slow walk through the mind of a broken woman 

Crying every night and wishing there was no such thing like a bad omen 

It was quite depressing and suicide was my only solution 

But I couldn't walk that lane cause it gave me blurry vision 

This wasn't a good road I must confess 

So I walked right back to myself

Nigerians Dont Mind Their Business

The problem with Nigerians is that we don't mind our business and we are good with putting our nose where it doesn't belong.

Take for instance we have our own local football league but we'll rather be rooting for some club in Europe that doesn't know we are selling a lot of their fake jersey here and to make matters worst we have people who will go as far as killing you if you insult their clubs. That is not our business but we care way too much.
Sometimes I am forced to believe that we are more fanatic now than the Europeans.. well that is not my business too.

Also America's presidential election is coming soon and trust us na, we have carry their matter for our head like gala sellers at Rumuola traffic. Now some Nigerians have pitched their tents either with the Egocentric billionaire Donald Trump or the former first lady turned presidential candidate at least she didn't pick her husband as running mate Mrs Hillary Clinton.
I heard some Nigerians comparing them to either Buhari or Jonathan, well me I am yet to see a similarity.
It is not our business who wins the election, they will not come and give us good roads or constant electric, they have their own problems to face there but Nigerians are already choosing for them, go to news paper stand and see how they have left our own noble and honourable PDP and APC and now they have focused on Trump vs Clinton.
Maybe it is our business but it should be concerned with those it concerns...

Remember when Obama was running for president and a fund raising dinner was held for him in Nigeria here. I don't know if that one is our business sha but it wasn't Obama's business and he made it clear by avoiding us in all his eight years as a president.

Well all that is not my business sha like Daniel Ortega picking his wife as his running mate in Nicaragua, I think that man is trying to protect his business...
Let me go and mind my business biko, please you should mind your business after this post sha

#SaveMayowa Burial Funds

Just two days ago I saw the picture of a young woman who would be in her twenties or so If I am not mistaking, she looked very sick and there is a message out their for people to donate for her treatment.
So I was trying to know what kind of sickness that could make one look so frailed but every message is just saying #savemayowa. It was later I saw one that says she has ovarian cancer.
Well just this afternoon a new post has surfaced from Linda Ikeji's Blog that it was a scam, the family knew she would die and they went ahead to raise money from good loving people.

Me on the other hand I just think that it's not as we see it, agreed the family knew she would die but the money was not for her treatment but burial or some sort.
Heard they raised about thirty million or so, the thing here is that burials are very expensive in Nigeria, it is more like a farewell party these days, so giving their beloved daughter a befitting burial is not such a bad idea after all and we should be grateful we contributed to that.

Now the only issue is that Nigerians as I know us won't comply to anymore donation to save a life, we can't let people scam us twice and if this is not looked into it will become a new hustle trust nigerians na..

Well let me just go and finish my bole and fish before it cold, since I don't have any other meaningful thing to do

Beggars With Rights

As we alighted from the taxi, we stood and waited for the driver to give us our change. Just a few minutes walk from the taxi we saw this old freckled looking man who would walk up to anyone asking for help.
He was in a pitiable position, so we thought of helping out (well my friend actually did). We've gone past him already so we went back to ask what he actually wanted, thinking he was looking for transport fare but to our surprise he brought out an asthmatic inhaler and showed us that he needed money to buy one.
Then I remembered having similar incident where a man came to me with the same asthma issue and I parted with a thousand naira hoping I was helping him.

This is just another cheap scam though, because immediately we said we didn't have money for inhaler he started cursing out, telling us how his god is bigger than us and all other crap.
I thought to myself if he has a family, will he be out there looking for who to buy him inhaler at the dead of the night or is this just a way he gets his daily bread, the city is filled with people like this who comes up with different stories just to extort money from people, either they went to visit a brother who is not around or their wife just delivered a set of twins and they needed money to pay the hospital bill or a very special case of a young man who is always going to uniport and needed transport fare.

The point is these beggars in a way have rights, they will tell what they want and the amount of money they hope to get from you.
You can't freely give anymore cause you don't know who is telling the truth about their situation anymore.
Just as we walked out on him I saw him going to another person for his inhaler money and it's past 10.00 pm already just wondering if he would meet his target that night

America's Newd First Lady

Being the nerd that I am, I think social media has taken away my social life. But who cares about me when there are more pressing issues going on in the world right now..

Let's take America for example (not the continent but the country... don't know why we even call them that) they have a lot of history to be made in the forth coming election. If Hillary Clinton emerges winner she'll be the first woman to become president in America and if Donald Trump wins then his wife becomes the first woman to be a first lady with her nudes out their in the world (that's some record too you know?).
Well that not being the only thing she has going for her right now...
The Internet was trolling her for the recent speech made, which by the way was a brilliant one if it wasn't known to the world to be an excerpt of Michelle Obama's speech but she is a Trump na, they can say what they like whether it's somebody's speech or not it's not their business.
I wouldn't blame Melania Trump though, I mean if Michelle gave all black women hope that they too can be a first lady despite their skin color I think Melania just proved that Kim khadasian, amber rose, blac chyna and any other stripper out there can rise to the position of a first lady just get married to the right man, with an ambition and be able to read other people's speeches it's that simple..

Well enough of all these talk about Melania, I think if Patience Jonathan was busy stealing other people's speech we won't have had all the comedy she gave us.

I think I should just shut up already.. please anyone with useful information about the Remi Tinubu vs Dino Melaye fight, I lost track on who was leading with the women protest

Nigeria; a Comedy of Errors

Been a while I wrote anything meaningful, but to take a good look at all that's happened so far and be sane in this country then you must be really tough minded...
I mean our president going deaf and abandoning all the medical centres in Nigeria to go to London for treatment, we could have blamed it on incompetence on the part of medical practitioners who won't mind going on strike while there is a drip running in your system or rather the fact that he himself have a fetish for international flight...
I mean the man is so patriotic that he dodged two visits one to Lagos and another to Port Harcourt, but he was well enough to fly out of the country.. issoright

We cannot down look the job of the anti-graft agency too who has been helpful in curbing corruption even though the lot of nigerians have been complaining that it's one sided (Ok not all, mostly PDP)... but still though there is one governor who do thinks the EFCC is too corrupt to fight corruption after he was indicted and he himself decides to drag the first lady into the fight...

We know mama peace was quite a character but you see Aunty Aisha could not hold it back when Fayose called her out... and like everybody who has been giving us something to trend on Twitter she took to her twitter handle and called Fayose a MAD DOG...
Well we were made to believe that the account was hacked and had been rectified in less than 24 hours but it didn't change the Fact that Fayose is still a mad dog...
And our first lady have joined Davido and his colleagues in registering her name on the list of twitter ranters (whatever that means)

I should go on but you see me I don't like trouble before Lai Muhammed will come and add the one I did not talk like the fresh tomato case that was caused by boko haram (actually in lai's statement)
So to avoid trouble lemme just put my full stop now.
