Of websites and presidential pardons!

First of all.............GO DOWN LOW!
 I've always wanted to do that.
But seriously,first of all,websites are a finicky bunch.
You just never know!
And also considering that this said website belongs to an arm of the nation's security apparatus,who are we to say that the website is really not www.nscdc (I really need to put a full stop after my sentence,so I'll just put it after the closing bracket if you don't mind).
Has anyone really tried the said addy and a fully functional,larger than life website of the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corp did not pop right at you?
Have we become such doubters that when a respectable man in uniform tells you that "only his Oga at the top can categorically answer that",we still don't believe?
Come on!!!!!!Men and women in uniform are of a higher moral fiber than the rest of us.

Errrmmmmm....................most of them anyway!

For those who don't have an inkling of what I'm talking about,a few days ago,the Commandant of the Lagos Office of the Nigerian Civil Defence Corp, Mr Obafaiye Shem,was interviewed on a popular Lagos news channel and asked to provide the web address of the NSCDC for those interested in finding out more about the organization.
If only Mr Obafaiye could turn back the hands of time like R.Kelly unsuccessfully tried to,he would have done the honorable military thing,straightened his back,chin up,frown on face and bark to the camera that he did not have a clue.
But instead,he stammered and jonsed around for a good two(2) minutes like a teenage boy trying to find his way round a bra strap for the first time,before finally saying,to the consternation of the whole world,including my mother,who probably has never opened a website in her life but still knows that there ought to be a dot com somewhere,that the web address was www.nscdc (I'm really having a hard time with my full stops today because of poor Mr Obafaiye).
That's all!

My name?.......Only my Oga at the top can categorically tell you that.

To be fair to the brother,the website is indeed www.nscdc.gov.ng,for those saying the guy should have just said www.nscdc.com!
Also,considering that the poor fella most likely had 90% of his brain matter channeled into ways of possibly embezzling the monthly allocation of the agency,it might be a bit of a stretch for us to imagine that he could possibly ever remember such a cumbersome web address.
This comical gaffe should in fact throw up a more serious and disturbing public discourse.
If something as basic and simple as the web address of his own security unit is beyond the reach of a key commander of an important arm of  the country's defence force,how then can we expect them to locate supposed terrorists and kidnappers!
In other news,rumors have been trickling into the public domain about the supposed pardon granted to certain Nigerians and in particular to a certain ex-governor.
A man so notorious,he has been described as allegedly one of the greatest looters of the Nigerian treasury since Lord Lugard.
This same man once disguised as a woman to escape from the long arm of the law in the U.K-I still cant wrap my head round how he managed that.If I was the immigration officer at Heathrow,I would still arrest 'her' for been so damn ugly.

DSP, is that you?

Anyhoo,this great man of the Niger Delta is alive ,well and kicking.And he has in the last few months seem to be having more and more influence in the affairs of government and indeed governing.
In other climes,this gentleman would still be kicking his heels at the pleasure of the government at a tastefully furnished federal prison near you.
In fact,and I repeat in fact,if it were to be China..................I doubt if he'd still be kicking his heels,prison or not.
Any road,we had all forgotten about him,just like the rest of his thieving contemporaries.
And if this government had any bright pennies,they'd let it remain so.
That's all!
