The Eagles and their lack of depth – and more, in today’s news roundup with Cheta Nwanze

  .  .  .  .  .  .  . We want to come back here next
year and make an impact. This is a
dress rehearsal and I can assure that
the Super Eagles will be among the
top nations when the Brazil 2014
World Cup starts,”Many apologies for the Papa Eagles like display
with this tonic last week. While I can’t guarantee
that it won’t happen again, I would blame this
one on the approaching pay day. Kind of like
the way civil servants in Nigeria are going to be
erratic in the coming months if Comrade
Governor’s statements are anything to go buy. I
think it is at this point that I will probably state,
very publicly that I shall be giving the state of
my birth a wide berth in the near future.

What, with okada now banned, a cult war that
is still ongoing, and now civil servants
potentially joining the fray, the crime levels out
there must be about to go through the roof.
In news of other places that I will not be visiting
any time soon, the government of the formerly
great Britain, have decided to impose a
£3k (N750k) levy for Nigerians (among others)
to have the pleasure of visiting their domain.
Strange call this one considering that they
actually need the citizens (and resources) of
these countries more than they are needed, if
only those people knew it of course.

But then as the old saying goes, knowledge is
power, and in this case, someone has taken the
time to give us some knowledge about one of the
apparently serious contenders for the top job in
the next election cycle, while the Prez causes
“disquiet” as he slowly takes over People Deceive
People. Pity the chaps who could have taken
advantage of the “disquiet” are having a
“disquieting” moment themselves…

Bits and bobs

I was under the impression that issuing dud
cheques is a crime. But given where we live in,
crime pays, so Nollywood fine-boy, Emeka Ike is
safe.

Benin, no, not my hometown, but the country
named after my hometown, is the biggest
beneficiary of Nigeria’s new rice policy.
And finally this morning, still swaying
uncontrollably from the black eye issued by La
Furia Roja, Big Boss admits that we missed
Emenike and Moses. “We want to come back
here next year and make an impact. This is a
dress rehearsal and I can assure that the Super
Eagles will be among the top nations when the
Brazil 2014 World Cup starts,” Big Boss wept
while in the background, the fourteen players
that were passed out of Brazil yesterday
breathed through respirators.
Parting shot at Big Boss: your team played
decently. You just need to get some depth.
