At times the news we hear these days baffles us to a point of thalidomide according to Hon P. Obahiagbon



A South African man facing deportation from New Zealand for being too fat has been given a 23-month reprieve.

However, Albert Buitenhuis will not be allowed any publicly-funded healthcare, a government official said.

The chef, who weighs 130kg (20st 6lb), appealed two months ago after his work visa renewal application was rejected on the grounds he did not have "an acceptable standard of health".

Why won't they deport him?

Considering:
the amount of food and water he will be consuming daily which is enough to feed 100 children.

The amount of yards of cloth he will use to make his body wears which is enough to cloth 10people.

The fraction of space he will occupy which can be enough to house 5 men and 10rabbits.

And lastly, the size of the coffin he will need to drive his corpse to the humus which will very much be as big as a nigerian kiosk.

Those are enough to wreck a nation.
