The hand that feeds the mouth

Hiya!! Did you all hear that two Ex-Governors were arrested, especially the technology governor? Let's see what comes out of that. At least something is being done.

How often do you hear of or see the hand that feeds the mouth being bitten? Many people here are beginning to wonder if it's gonna happen. Remember what happened to Chris Ngige of Anambra State and his god-father?
It was with great wonderbility (as my friend would call it) and confusion that we received the news of Chief Ojo Maduekwe being simply asked to take a bow and leave during the ministerial screening. Chief Maduekwe has been in government since God-knows-when. He shares a similar political CV with Senator Jubril Aminu & Professor Jerry Gana in the length of time they've spent in the corridors of power. Before the screening, a large bunch of people (senators inclusive) petitioned the inclusion of Chief Ojo Maduekwe in the list. All man think say dem go comot am ni o. Only for him to come for screening and take a bow. Does the Senate mean that with that great number of years spend in government, there wouldn't be any actions taken/supported by him that they cannot inquire about?
We sure do smell a rat there. There must have been stern warnings to all PDP senators that they would be biting the hand that feeds their mouth if they do so. If you talk perenh, no ghana-must-go allowance for you. Wetin dem go do now? Man must wack! Whatever happened to that senator who refused to collect recharge cards given as bribes. Was he re-elected? I guess not.

Over to Olabode George. Does it mean that once you are an exco in the ruling party you have automatically become C-in-C or an authoritative body in the government of a country? The recent harrassment of the Lagos State Government brings me to my wit's end on who is ruling the country - sElected officers or PDP stalwarts? Fela already said if you have a friend fighting in the roforofo, better tell him to to stop fighting. I guess that's about how far you can go in discouraging him from fighting, except you wouldn't mind not being distinguishable from the ones fighting and the one separating them. And this man na person papa/uncle /husband oh. I urge all family & friends of Uncle Bode to call him to order.
