Good one, Mikel.
On a lighter note, residents of Obanikoro are thinking about changing the name of the area. Why is this? The name OBANIKORO in Yoruba, among other things, could also mean THE KING DON GET CORO. Yepaaaaaa!
Which kain yeye name be dat? If the king can get coro, what hope is there for the masses. So Obanikoro residents have decided to petition the state govt to change the name to OBA NI ALAFIA, that is THE KING HAS PEACE.
We dey watch as the drama unfolds……:-) 🙂 🙂
Hahahaha…. Anyway nice one @ Mikel.
Good one, that’s close to 2million naira including logistics. If some so called ex international can do one or two things like this, I think the people will be more relieved. I have done my little contribution through my society ( A social club) we donated bags of rice, groundnut oil and some other incentives to a community in osun state. Let us all please help the needy at this trying time, nothing is too small, may God bless us all. God bless you Mikel
