Dear Dad
How now? Long time no post! Please bear with me. I will post you on that subject fully and surely later. Just a few talk points this day:
a) The road to your dear Niger Delta is now completely muddy, muddled, mangled and thoroughly mismanaged. It is a crying shame!
b) The business lives of our Igbo brethren have been dealt a huge blow by the deadly potholes, gashes and gullies on that road. Movement of their goods and merchandise is so tortuous and traumatic that they are now regular sitting ducks/targets for men of the underworld!
c) Well, there is some hope. Apologies have pour out to Nigerians from both the president and his minister of transportation. This is a welcome departure from the past "state of denial" that pervaded and characterised the previous regime! They are now heavily mobilising palliative measures/intervention.
Be that as it may, I hope that they will kindly and promptly take stock of the huge loss of lives and livelihood with a view to comforting/compensating the victims. We need to.
By the way, the new minister is a daughter of the Niger Delta o! So, we keep our fingers crossed.
I love you Dad, especially now that men are hardly men.
Stay well, and pray for us.
Dayo
