Remembering pro golfers Godffrey and Ali

You will love Minna because the place is as cool as cucumber. Minna smells power. It smells of old money. Once you move in from its snaky, uneven roads, names, several powerful names, will be painting pictures in the depth of yours heart. You already know IBB and now you could be wondering what his house or fortress really looks like. They say it sits on the mountain and at once, you will be downloading several hilly mansions at Hollywood, where mansions that look like postcards sit.

People here are warm and friendly too. They are not arrogant just because they have Babangida on their side. But anytime you delve into politics of power, they easily rub in IBB and at this point you will want to put an end to the debate since you don’t have anyone on your end to call upon.

The place is clean too; and the streets are somehow woozy with dash since they are mainly flagged by trees.

Appropriately, this appears to be where the good tales about Minna reaches an epilogue.

Talking about the bad side of this ancient city reminds one of how the place turned into some sort of grave yard to the finest Nigerian professional golfers.

Exactly eight years ago, Christian Godffrey and Ali Abdullahi lost their lives on this road when the Avalon Toyota car they were travelling in crashed in a ghastly accident. May God continue to keep the talented duo in His bossom.
