WAEC Seized My English Results Thrice"-patrick Obahiagbon by Nobody: 9:11pm On Sep 07, 2013
In a recent interview with Gbenro Adeoye of Punch.
addressed his controversial way of speaking and why
he chooses to speak that way.


Did you write exams in school in these big
words?

I used such words very-very freely in my exams
both at the secondary school and in my university
and little wonder I had the misfortune of my
English results being seized intermittently in my
O’ Levels.
WAEC released my results for the other subjects
and withheld my English result. This happened for
about three years. Twice, I passed the University
Matriculation Examination but I could not proceed
to the University because of my English results
that were not released. At the end of the day, it
was released after the third attempt.


Why do you always speak ‘big grammar’?

I am not really consensus ad idem with those who
opine that my idiolect is advertently obfuscative.
No no no, it’s just that I am in my elements when
the colloquy has to do with the pax nigeriana of
our dreams and one necessarily needs to
fulminate against the alcibiadian modus vivendi
of our prebendal political class.


How do you talk to your wife, children and
even your friends?

I relate with my family and friends very warmly
and in an atmosphere of camaraderie, stripped of
my confutational habiliment and gladiatorial
homilies. I am a very peaceful, calm, level-headed
and celestially attuned soul personality.


Is this the way you proposed to your wife,
speaking high tech grammar?

Of course, the business of the day when I
interfaced with my wife on matters of the heart
had to be in plain Caeser’s language and you can
decipher why that had to be so. The matter in
view did not permit itself of sphinxian conundrum.


Do you know that many people don’t take you
too seriously when you talk because they think
you are not communicating?

Why will I be perturbed from ensconcing myself in
the palatable arms of Morpheus because people
have deprived themselves of the cultivation of the
regime of the mental magnitude? I read all the
farrago of baloneys and vacuous bunkum from
pepper soup objurgators. The spirit of
animadversion remains their fundamental human
right. It also remains an indubitable fact that I get
millions and millions of requests daily from people
all over the world requesting for my verbal
mentorship which positive cosmopolitan reactions
have assisted my equipoise and righteous sense
of pachydermatous garb. I cannot put my nose to
the grindstone daily and expect to be understood
by those luxuriating in a modus vivendi, verging
on pepper souping, goat heading, suyaing, big
stouting and isiewulising. Has a philosophical wag
not once pontificated that things of the spirit are
spiritually discerned and that it takes the deep to
call the deep? We will speak more on this matter
of critiques and chichi dodo another day.


Why do you pull your trousers up beyond the
waist?

Hahahaha….That trousers style is called Yohji
Yamamoto. It was my own audacious statement to
remonstrate against the pervasive tendency of
Nigerians especially our youths that took to the
practice of putting on trousers exposing their
lower anatomical contours and I will do it over and
over again
