ALIBABA – FEAR!

Atuyota why fear dey catch you? Your people have thrown their heads into the ring o. See Banky, see Desmond, see Kate Henshaw you are still speaking English. Truth is that of all these people and indeed the whole of the entertainment industry, you are the one with the weight, clarity of thought, network and passion to do anything serious about true representation of our people at whatever level you want to engage. Your positions on national issues, your crusade for the right things to be done and your reach are all very pertinent when it comes to a serious run for office. So this your fear is what I do not understand. Be like say Mummy B afang dey neutralize your resolve. Guys it was in Alibaba’s house I ate the most delicious afang in five years. Kai, Mary can cook o. When I finished, they gave me warm tea to go with it. Please anybody in search of Afang, kindly go to Alibaba’s house, it’s an open Invite and ask for Mary B and she will give you afang to eat o. My own they put eight pieces of meat and snail. Kai, you see why people don’t take me seriously, here I was talking about Alibaba’s possible run for office I don digress go dey talk about his wife Afang. But do you blame me, the woman put periwinkle and some dry fish and then garnished it with what we Ibibios call Ekwong. Ma Abasi I almost died for I slept off on my way back home. Ohhhhhhh, it is about Alibaba and not Mary’s Afang. Ali you say you won’t come out because it is all about money politics. Before nko was it going to be perfect, would power be handed over to you because you be Alibaba and your wife can cook Afang? Mbok jump in, Nigeria needs you. Jump into the pool and use your phenomenal followership to cause a major revolution in the way things are done. It is your birthright and this is a clarion call, Nigeria needs you, me I need Mary’s Afang. Let’s do this.

Dupe Mujota is currently the commissioner in charge of Education in Ogun State and she is beautiful. You should see her. Elegant, composed and graciously well kept. She backs this up with a strong intellectual mien. Let me stop before I start sounding like society reporter. She is today vying for the State House of assembly in Ogun State. She will be bringing to the position years of cognate experience as an Investment banker, having headed two major Asset Management Firms with Funds under management running into trillions of naira. She has over those years garnered tremendous wealth of experience, depth and network that she brought to bear on her role as a commissioner in Ogun State. It is all these positives that she would be taking into the House if elected. I am supporting her o and would fly into Ogun state to mobilize support for her candidacy. A gifted orator and a well-balanced professional who brings a lot of value to the table. I know I am expected to balance this write up with small yabis but truly I cannot lie, there is no negative so far except the fact that she loves boli and groundnut to a fault and that is neither here nor there. Let’s do the right thing Ogun State, let’s give proper and effective representation a chance. This is it.
