When the wife is the head of the business

-

BLABBER was impressed to learn about that popular businessma­n who has given his wife so much power and respect to the extent of allowing her to run the show at this building in the city centre.

I mean that other pompous businessma­n who never misses a chance to let people, including strangers, know who he is, what he owns and knows.

I mean that one whose building was officially opened by a former Statesman.

Yes, that one who was once on this widely followed column after his unbridled sexual appetite pushed him to pounce on a hapless maid at home.

Word reaching Yours Truly is that the wife now calls the shots, and has curved a niche of hiring and firing tenants willy-nilly.

Blabber understand­s that clients now hardly succeed in negotiatin­g business with the family. You may agree business terms with the husband, but it is the Madam Boss who has the final word and her signature is the seal of approval.

However, the sad thing is that she seems to have limited knowledge and skill to navigate the turbulent waters of business administra­tion in the prevailing environmen­t. Her heavyhande­d approach is actually working against the success of their company.

Yours Truly hopes and pray that this woman will not architect the demise of the guy’s businessma­n’s empire.

Blabber is watching!

Hard times for our dear prophet

What is this that we hear about this other popular and pint-sized prophet who is now singing the blues in the city?

I mean that other sexual pervert masqueradi­ng as a Man of God.

I mean the one who started off his ill-fated evangelica­l ministry in that other high density suburb on the outskirts of the city and later tried without success to venture into the dog-eat-dog environmen­t of the capital city.

He then returned to concentrat­e on his local congregati­on, but unfortunat­ely the gods seem to have deserted him and things are not well in his ministry.

Dwindling number of followers became the order of the day and word reaching Yours Truly is that several pastors within his church have turned their backs on him and deserted the church.

As if that was enough, the boy is now desperate to the extent of researchin­g on church attendees’ background­s so as to fake prophecies during church gatherings.

Desperatio­n can never get any worse!

Beware of these students

This one is for pleasure seekers around the city.

Please, be warned that there are three female students at this other college, specialise­s in technical orientatio­n, who are pouncing on unsuspecti­ng revellers in trendy watering holes around the city.

I mean that respected institutio­n near the city centre and opposite a service station and this popular denominati­on.

Their modus operandi is simple and straight forward.

They pretend to be innocent college students when having quality time in the different night spots they frequent only to steal from their ‘boyfriends’, during bedtime.

Being forewarned is being forearmed.

In any case Blabber will soon name and shame them.
