Those Niger Delta buggers!

First off, before I forget... I can't believe I didn't big up my boys for their 6-0 (yes, for all you doubting Thomas's, that's S-I-X G-O-A-L-S to N-O-T-H-I-N-G!) trouncing of Derby 2 weeks ago was it... I forget, the taste of absolute victory is still SWEET in my mouth! Now that's spelling d-e-r-b-y and including jara (extra).... lol! Fabulous boys keep up the good work... if you are still confused about who am talking about... it's the REAL Reds... the one and only bera (better) club... Liverpooooooooollllllllllllllll. (This means final, no competitors etc...!) Anyhoo, so it's away to Portsmouth this weekend.... please god of victors in football, let my team win (and spell portsmouth too)... that would be a first... let them be a sign to all the doubting Thomas's out there that we are numero uno (well, which we are right now, not to blow our trumpet). Give Rafa our esteemed Coach, wisdom, our Goalie (Reina or whoever keeps) an invisible shield to block ALL incoming attempts and actuals both from the other side and ourselves (we don't need no own goals!), our Defenders defense-sense, our Mid-fielders legs to carry the ball always to the other side and our Strikers legs like a Buddha, so they cab score score and score some more! Thank you god of footie....

So apparently those twits in Niger Delta who call themselves 'militants' (yeah right fellas... dream on!) had the nerve to kidnap 11 (not 1 o! But eleven) governing officials from Ondo state!!! And why? It was due to a row over payments for alleged vote-rigging! My people, what can I say? First you cross over into another tribe, then another man's state!! INSULT upon Injury! For y'all who don't know, as much as we (and by we, I mean Naijas) like to think (or should that be pretend) that we are all 'one', we are NOT! We base sentiments on tribes and even within tribes, we have ... what shall we say... we're very villaglistic (i.e. where your papa come from - translates to what village are you from?) So for a Niger Delta person to not only 'stray' into our land, but to also seize our kinsmen... well, there is a problem then? And look at the reason? How can they expect to be credible and be able to justify their actions (not that it's justifiable) if they were looking for 'egunje' (aka Kickback aka bribe equals CORRUPTION!) Come on!! The fools (what else can they be) say the Ondo state governor, Dr Olusegun Agagu, reneged on an agreement to pay them for helping rig the April election. Imagine! Shame no catch them o! The kidnappers are demanding a ransom of nearly $4m (like that's the number of yams they should be growing on their farms!). Such utter nonsense!

Look Mr President when are you going to put an end to this rubbish! It's getting out of hands now. Why should poor innocent people be held to ransom, just cos some uneducated (refusing to go to school), nappy haired, gun-wielding, wanna-be Che Guevara miscreants think they can claim money on their heads! Abi ki le feel (What do you think?) Honestly, my blood is boiling and I have to run, lunch break is over.... catch you this evening... the girl is BACK!:) I do apologise for leaving you in a lurch...
