Let’s be very truthful, this policy is pinching only one man in this campaign the most. Those affected are shouting, we that are suffering are shouting and the question now is, should all of us die because of one man? Let me state here very categorically, this policy, although of very strategic importance to the long term health of the economy, especially the very positive implication it will have on insecurity, corruption and money laundering, still cannot shake off the toga of it being politically-inspired. It is now looking like a personality type thing with over 200 million of us bearing the brunt. Ego has entered the matter and common sense has taken flight. What I am seeing here is now a clash of wills. The implication of all these on a cash-based economy can only be imagined. Waking up at 2am to go and queue at the ATM and waiting the whole day only to withdraw N2,000 cannot be a fine prospect for a country in this 21st century. The Supreme Court is saying its own, state governors like Ogun and Kano are saying their own, CBN and the federal government are also saying their own and Nigerians are doing their thing. I cannot jump into Lagoon o it is not at this my age that fish will come and be chopping me o. Anybody wey tie this to anybody na him sabi o. As you can see all characters and events bear no resemblance to real persons or events. Post script – this is a fictitious rendition of crazy thoughts in my head this morning as I wake up in hunger. Please go and tell him that ‘Olodumare’ will bless him, that he will not jam ‘alakoba’ in his life that he should not come o.” “Aghhh, what will I tell my Oga? How will I explain this one? That ‘yamirin’, who is obedient and is fighting Jaga….- the one whose turn wants to come and eat Amala and Gbegiri in the same palace that they are just allowing me to squat. Please quickly send a message to them, that they should not pay shop rents for the next two years and they can go ahead and impregnate as many of our ladies as they want, they should not just come here for any visit o.” Visit ke, to where, which palace, do they even know the implications? Do they want me to lose the C of O to the palace? What kind of wahala be this na?” Their leader wants to visit and the letter was written and signed by one ‘omo ale’ from Ife or is it Ijesha. Kabiyesi didn’t like them, but there was nothing he could do to eradicate them because his youths relied heavily on them for the taxes they collected from the traders. Collecting all the shops in the kingdom and driving our boys to turn under the bridges into boxing gyms and all. What is even wrong with these ‘yamirin’ people? Kilo tie ma nshe awan koboko bayi’. The tortoise was both bullet-proof and a disappearing talisman it brcame very useful during the last palace invasion. Kabiyesi jumped, tying his wrapper and placing the tortoise very well on his chest. Short of breath, the ugly messenger dropped his message of doom, “‘awon yibo’ has written letter o Kabiyesi.” He had made a mental note to send her to the 7th Olori who used to be a stripper for more lessons – when ‘Gorimapa’ ran in. He had just finished with the latest Olori who still had some things to learn on how to delight the majesty in bed. So, this particular morning, our kind Oba was in bed. He didn’t like them o, simply because they impregnated the beautiful young damsels in his kingdom and they also encouraged the young girls to bleach their skins. He once told all the traders from the East to jump into the Lagoon where his people dumped excreta. The Oba can trace his bloodlines to the ‘Binis’ who were a tribe of great warriors. There is this Oba whose kingdom was once a Portuguese colony.
