THIS AND THAT

Yar'Adua, flag bearer of the PDP has been selected, ahem, elected to be the next President of Nigeria.

Maudeline All-Bright, the ex-Secretary of State of the USA, was on air in Nigeria as an observer, to state that the elections went well,despite a few short-comings. Last time an American Official, "Pickering", spoke publicly on our politics, the President-Elect (MKO) died, which should tell us something.

I submitted last Sunday's 'Whisperer' column late so it didn't make the papers. It's actually the coming Sunday's (29th), 'The Domestic Boxer', publication you've read here.

Nilla is back in Nigeria.

Adedibu, the Ibadan strongman has made his son, god-son and son-in-law, senators in Oyo State. Of course, his protege, Alao-Akala is also governor-elect.

Broken Walls, my stage play on Mental Health and its attendant complications, will be presented in collaboration with the Federal Neuro-Psychiatric Hospital, Yaba (Yaba Psychiatric Hospital)at the Muson Centre on Sunday May 13. Admission is free. Cocktail at 6pm. Show begins at 7pm. The Host of the proceedings will be Dr. H.T.O. Ladapo, Medical Director of the establishment
