FELLOW NIGERIANS,

It is with a sense of national duty that I address you today. As you all know, our NASCENT DEMOCRACY has been hijacked by some DISGRUNTLED ELEMENTS whose quest for a THIRD TERM was predicated on UNCONSTITUTIONALITY and downright THUGERY. These MEN OF TIMBER AND CALIPERS, though regarded by many as TECHNOCRATS, are no more than POLITICAL THUGS, brandishing and INDUCING THE MASSES with GHANA-MUST-GO POLITICS that is far from the VISION of our POLITICAL GODFATHERS, I meant FOUNDING FATHERS.

To avoid a STATE OF EMERGENCY, I have decided to APPOINT A SOLE ADMINISTRATOR to handle the AFFAIRS OF STATE. This INTERIM GOVERNMENT shall be headed by he WHOM THE CAP FITS. This I believe, is the ONLY WAY FORWARD, it is VICTORY FOR DEMOCRACY. As you know, NIGERIA IS OUR ONLY COUNTRY, and we must do all we can to resolve this DICHOTOMY. MAY GOD BLESS THE FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA.

Tayo D,, if you don't mind my saying so, you are a phucking genius. Please release the next paragraph of that speech NOW, in the interests of the suffering masses.
Re: Vocabularies Made Popular By Nigerian Leaders Erom 80s Till Date. by Nobody: 12:31am On Oct 24, 2006
Pellow Naijereans,

You will recall that when we assumed the mantle of office on the 29th of May 1999, we promised to deliver the dividends of democracy to our people. In the interest of the masses, we initiated painful reforms to improve the standard of living and accelerate our economic growth. In order to fight corruption, we have not only instituted the due process mechanism, we have also set up an economic and financial crimes commission to act as a watchdog for this administration. We are commited, there shall be no sacred cows.

We as custodians of our nascent democracy have continued to resist the persistent calls from our people to offer ourselves for service for a third term. In the face of such a monumental challenge that has serious implications for the unity of our nation and in the interest of continuity, i am waiting on God to guide me to do what is best in the interest of the nation.

Davidylans invocation of the Abachaesque Pellow Nigerians, along with that ubiquitous reference to awaiting God's directive from above have established him as a very serious contender for Nairaland's coveted Speech Writer of the Year Award which earlier seemed destined to be awarded by default to Tayo D, the Child of Circumstance. We shall collectively await Tayo D's rejoinder with baited breath, bearing in mind that no individual is greater than Nigeria, and that all primordial cleavages shall be set aside in this epic duel.

This is not the time for ''business as usual, anything-goes and other vices''. We are poised to make sure that the masses enjoy the full dividends of democracy

What is happening in the Niger Delta is the result of a ''Combined Cumulative Neglect'' of the area by successive administration of the country.

Just a few definitions of the famous words of our politicians!

God - A political version of Alladin's lamp conjured up by sleazy politicians seeking to legitimise their continued assault on the masses and unbridled looting of the public till.
National honors - Yearly charade organised by the government to adorn sycophants and political jobbers with meaningless titles meant to reward all but those who have made a meaningful contribution to the development of the nation.
Stakeholders - A word that refers to those whose main interests lies in feathering their own nests. See also Diego Ibrahim Marangida.
Prominent Nigerians - A tiny cabal of alien Nigerians, sycophants and praise singers of any government in power mainly for selfish interest while masquerading as speaking for the people. see also Arthur Nzeribe, Olabode George.
Godfathers - Senile old men who use looted funds to install puppets in power in order to obtain unbridled access to public funds all in the name of the people. See also, Chief Uba, Alhaji Lamidi Adedibu.
Election - A meaningless charade that merely rubber stamps "God's choice" for political office.
Welfarize - The art of bribing legislathieves, political subordinates, and other hangers-on in order to remain in their good books. See also Kola, kickback e.t.c.
Impeachment - A tool used by legislathieves primarily as a scare tactic to force the executive into "welfarizing" them.
Sustainable development - a phrase intended to hoodwink the people that refers to the initiation of white elephant projects meant to be abandoned as a means to siphon public funds into private bank accounts.
