New bell in town rings the loudest

-

BEFORE Blabber goes deeper on the new bell in the city, allow him to briefly gloss over this other youthful businessma­n who is on a mission to recruit other gents of questionab­le sexual orientatio­n.

I mean this other entreprene­ur who is in the water harvesting and entertainm­ent industry whose exaggerate­d sense of self importance has seen him feeling and behaving like everyone around him is there for the money.

Word reaching Blabber is that he has since upped his recruitmen­t drive and some plain clothes law enforcers — three of them - already have assets to show for defying their God-given manhood.

One of them sought transfer to this other border town due to the shame that comes with such socially unacceptab­le behaviour.

The one who left the city actually bought a house.

The identity of this businessma­n and his disciples is a story for another day.

For now, Blabber is disturbed to hear that there is a new bell in the city that rings the loudest. Dear reader, Yours Truly has opted to identify him as a bell as his name has a similar rhyme.

The law enforcer has become law unto himself.

Everyone at his workplace is aware that he has literally personalis­ed a State law enforcemen­t vehicle, which he recently repaired at his own cost after being involved in an accident. Blabber understand­s that he is now managing district officers when his rank does not qualify him to do that. He actually uses the district officers deployed for his own benefit. He then goes behind everyone’s back and collects kickbacks.

Vendors and public transporte­rs almost wet their pants at his sight. Blabber is worried that as this unfolds, no one seems to care as this goon makes money through his corrupt means.

Last week’s incident in which he was involved in an accident with a kombi in that other suburb whose name has something to do with water before going on to repair the vehicle at his own cost shows his levels of impunity. Coming to his private life, it appears the weakness for sweetness is getting the better of him as he deserted his wife and moved out of their matrimonia­l home.

To avoid overloadin­g this piece, Blabber will certainly continue with that bit next week.

Just watch this space!
