Ordinarily, a cocoyam leaf is incapable of cutting a person, but in the year that the gods are against one, especially in the year that the goodluck train fails to arrive at the time appointed, it does cut a person leaving them bleeding profusely. Yala Proverb. In the APC world view, political loafers depending on 'godladderism' and godfatherism can just stroll into plum political positions with their two-two hands inside their pockets.

Bukola Saraki of the Axis of Pendulum/Political Prostitution - The Middle Belt of Nigeria - and Yakubu Dogara...have in their hands, each a kola with 36 lobes, let them both send out town criers to all the 36 clans including the Market Square and summon the elders to the Town Hall for a celebration of life. But who exactly is hiding in the ancestral groves and beating the drums for Shola's boy to be dancing naked on the Express Way?
