When God created the Nigerian, he must have done so to provide some form of comic relief. As expected, Coach theophilus Adeyemi Tella has passed on and the very people who abandoned him to his fate are back in the forefront promising, pledging, releasing statements, vowing and of course shedding crocodile tears.

According to the Nigerian sunday guardian: "Former Nigerian Football Association (NFA) scribe Fanny Amu, who was a student of the late tactician at the Nigeria Institute for Sports (NIS), wept uncontrollably yesterday when called on phone. He, however, declined comments on the deceased, saying he was yet to believe the coach had died."

This was the same Fanny Amun who did not bother to show up all the two weeks Coach Tella was at LUTH, the same Amun who is part of the NFA that claimed a lack of funds for their inability to fly Tella abroad for treatment.
Yes it is the same Amun who is now "weeping uncontrollably" as if that will automatically wake Tella up from the grave. when will Amun believe that the coach has died? When he touches the hands and feet of the deceased? Perhaps Amun is waiting to offer Tella another coaching job.

Governor Segun Oni of Ekiti State has sent 10 first class monarchs in the State to London to observe the 11th Ekiti Day celebration, which took place Monday.
The reason of sending the traditional rulers to London, the State Commissioner for Information, Apostle Odunayo Ategbero, explained yesterday was to brief Ekiti people in diaspora about what has been happening in the State and Nigeria. The commissioner was reacting to claims in some quarters that royal fathers in the state boycotted the 47th independence anniversary and celebration of the 11th year of creation of the state. He said that every local government in the State was “celebrating the anniversary also, so people decided to remain in their locality rather than coming to Oluyemi Kayode Stadium in Ado-Ekiti were Governor Oni came to deliver his speech as expected.”

NOTES: Only in Nigeria do public officials and cronies celebrate the aniversaries of a state in a foreign country! What were the monarchs "observing" in London? Do they have a branch of Ekiti state there?
They needed 10 (TEN!) monarchs to brief Ekiti people in diaspora about happenings in the state and Nigeria? In this day and age of the internet?
Nigeria na wa o!
