34 years ago The Robert Nesta Marley(Bob Marley) died
My Random Thoughts : 34 years ago The Robert Nesta Marley(Bob Marley)
died. This reggae legend and philosopher inspired many across the globe
by his thoughts through the music he shared! I fondly remember " man to
man is so unjust you don't know who to trust... some will eat and drink
with you then behind they try to eliminate you...,""... until the
philosophy which rate one race inferior... is totally destroyed...", etc
etc.Some of my fb friends and many others have asked why
I have become silent for sometime now? guys I have been totally
shattered by what happened in my ancient town Gembu,Mambilla Plateau
where APC thugs burnt down my kid brother's house.Barr G.T Kataps. Not
only that. They also torched the houses of The Rt Hon Abel P Diah and
Amb Emmanuel Njiwah plus the retaliation that followed. I know some will
get offended by what I'm gonna say but honestly no sane society will
condone this brazen and wanton destruction and just keep silent. I'm so
so ashamed of our security forces especially the conducts of the DPO and
his men plus including the Army units stationed in town who stood by
and watched while this burning, looting etc took place without doing
ANYTHING! Even our Royal Father His Majesty Dr Shehu Audu Baju went out
twice to talk to these youths but they gave him a deaf ear! Well I have
read all sorts of comments on fb and elsewhere about what happened. On
behalf of The Kataps family I wish to thank His Majesty Dr Shehu Audu
Baju for his efforts and visit to the family house not only to
sympathise but console our dad over these sad event. I also wish to
thank those who sent in words or by personal visits to either the family
house or to some of us. As a family we demand thus;1. The arrest and
prosecution of the sponsors of this destructions cos we know them all.
2. The arrest and prosecution of all those who took part in the burning
and looting we know them all. 3. The dismissal of The DPO and his
collabirators.4. The arrest and court-marshalling of the Army Unit
commander and soldiers who were at the scene. These acts must not go
unpunished. For those who looted this is the time to come forth with
the looted property and confess. As The NJEL BO BANG and the descendant
of The Great TOHKIMCHIM of Bang the attendant consequences that will
follow you and your generation can better be imagined! Above all God
Almighty is watching!
Football Palaver
Football Palaver : Apologies guys especially Chelsea fans for being
absent for long. I have explained elsewhere the reasons. How can Chelsea
the English PL Champs be on any front page and yours sincerely be
absent? @Isma'il I know bros you tagged me twice or so but honestly I
didn't know what to say then. So where are the FA,Referees Council? How
about big mouths dem? The Blues just too much for wuna abi? Yes we
parked the bus. Why shouldn't we? When almost everything was done
to stop us? Congratulations to JM and the team for a job Weldone and a
wonderful season! Like Isma'il said there are just two clubs in the
World; Chelsea and others! On the flip side I'm not excited about the
reappointment of Keshi as the Super Eagles Coach. The guy has got
nothing new to offer! In other sports I don't know how scores or points
are awarded in boxing but I think my inlaw Manny Pacquiao won on the
night with Mayweather.He was the most exciting on the night. Cheers
folks it's good to be back! Life must go on!
