...and the governor backpedals.

The media was last week awashed with the incident between the Comrade Governor and the widow trader, of course it was a sad tale that left a bitter taste and smacks of total heartlessness on the part of the governor.  I am not about holding brief for the governor,  who in the intensity of his anger, threw caution to the winds, when he asked the widow trader  who infringed on an environmental responsibility to go and die, inspite of all her plea for leniency. This episode elicited a lot of reactions in the world of social media. I am sure the governor never in his lifetime thought of what hit him and how it all panned out. The powerful force that played out was going to wreak havoc on the governor's future political plans, tarnish his image and obliterate any trace of good in his nature.  It was quite funny how an opposing political party even rose to her rescue of course  to score a political point. One thing that was certain was God at work mysteriously in favour of this helpess widow who became a torn bride between two political parties, a celebrity widow and an instant millionaire. The governor was smart enough to realise that he had goofed big time by trying to swat a fly with a slegehammer and quickly did a 360. A two million naira gift and job opportunity offered the widow as a sign of remorse from the governor was not a bad idea at all.  I could imagine lots of people wishing they were the victim. Anyway, that episode is fading out gradually but there are lessons to learn and questions to ask!  One lesson is that God could use any situation to butter anybody's bread, secondly, decision made in anger never turns out right, thirdly, governance could be humane if the chief executive is not blinded by power or power drunk. I also have been wondering how many of decisions made by our leaders are thoroughly thought through before execution? How many of such decisions as the go-and-die episode play out in our lives daily and go unnoticed.  Does position of authority wield some untowards influence on those who occupy the seats?
I think the country will be a whole lot easier if governance is with human face.

They are not my kids- Odartey Lamptey

Celebrated Ghanaian soccer superstar Nii Odartey Lamptey, is reportedly battling with serious marriage problems right now, after realizing his three kids with wife, Gloria are not his biological children.According to Goal.com, Odartey spent his entire married life without knowing all three kids he had called his own are not his real children.
Nii Odartey Lamptey had suspected his wife of infidelity for several years but decided to stay in the marriage out of love and the chain of businesses they own together.

But trouble reportedly started sometime last year, Gloria wanted Nii Lamptey to send their first daughter abroad to further her studies at a cost of £26,000 a year for three years.

Nii Lamptey objected, citing the fact that the expense was too much and recommending that his daughter schools in Ghana for her University education.
Gloria was reportedly incensed by her husband’s stance and filed for divorce.

Nii Lamptey initially agreed to the divorce but delayed in his response because of his strong infidelity suspicions.
Footy-ghana.com understands that he secretly took samples from the three children and did a DNA test, which reportedly revealed that none of the three girls were fathered by him.

The woman now claims the former Anderlecht and Aston Villa player was the one who suggested an artificial insemination after realizing he was infertile.

Lamptey who is the owner of Golden Lions Soccer Academy and Glow Lamp International School is now heading to court for a divorce after over 20 years of marriage.

Much ado about six packs

I am not about embarking on the tortuous journey nor the strict discipline  to carving those nice looking  and enticing abs seen as the symbol of the ultimate man. I am absolutely fantastic in my one-well-rounded designer's abs *winks*. I am sure most guys are as lazy in this regard as i am. Anyway sha, life goes on! Back to the six-pack guy, the so called, ultimate man, envied by other guys and loved by women, so they say. He puts in so much exercises, routines into building  his abs, some abstain totally from certain meals just to stay fit, unlike the rest of us that have no gatekeeper nor boundaries to our food intakes. He delights in his breakfast but often skips supper, worse case he makes it light or very early. He is discipline with his routines, which is way harder to follow if you live in lagos or other busy cities. I remembered trying a couple of times to jog a certain number of times per week, did I succeed? Hmmmn! *sealed lips*. Most ladies fantasize about being with guys with great abs because they feel he should do better in bed *lies lies lies*. The thought of the pouncing and pounding makes them go wet and wild, ojukokoro. I am not jealous  of the six-pack guy because this insinuation is one of those falsehoods handed down from generation to generation.  Anyway back to the matter, it is also very common though to see perfectly shaped and well chiselled guys going into  marriage turn orobo before you say jack..., certainly the handiwork of the woman, who feeds him till he is out of shape just to make sure he becomes less attractive to other ladies! (Na joke I dey o) *big ups to our wives, no demeaning their roles and importance, abeg o! I no wan hear say my food no ready o!*  Today, fortunately or unfortunately our Tv screens are inundated with Pictures and Videos of well built guys with *great abs* singing or dancing,  jiggling their waist, flaunting what they got with ladies  watching in awe, with lips agape, heart racing, thoughts running, wetness left, right and centre,  endless wishes and prayers,  hoping God gives them that kind of guy for a husband. It is pretty obvious that most of our entertainers have taken to this trend which is quite commendable and remarkable.. But in the real sense, how many of these six-pack' s guys are actually the ULTIMATE GUY?  How many of these "Sex symbols" are true men that can make a woman feel what it is to be a woman?  How many are truely into HER  and not HIM? It is worrisome whenever I hear stories of how so many of these acts brandishing great abs everywhere have questionable sexual preferences and yet give our sisters sleepless nights. We ll reveal identities  and one of their joints(health centre) located somewhere at Sabo, Yaba, at the appropriate time.  May I  however, salute those who are true men with or without abs, I mean those who treat our sisters right, those who havent been punctured or had someone else punctured in unusual places, i salute you, great guys, the real ultimate men. Permit me to take my leave now, I got some work to do with Uwechie's daughter abi Valentine's sister. I shall be back, until then, take good care of yourself.
