ONE MILLION BOYS
A tale of penkele's legacy
Just yesterday, a lady at work greeted "Happy new month". What followed was a feeling of nostalgia and I had to explain to my co-workers that I read that particular phrase only on phone screens. Today also started on a bright note and driving past Challenge, I saw two guys washing Adelabu's billboard, an uncommon phenomenon and a paradox considering the ruling party's hunger for destruction and vandalisation of opposition's properties.
It is quite unfortunate though, that today didn't end on a bright note. During our campaigns in IBSE LG, the heart of IB. city and the site of our famed Mapo hall, Prof. Olaiya alongside his campaign train was attacked by members of the notorious gang "1 million boys" particularly popular for being the thuggery unit of the APC Guber campaign team, at Kudeti, right in front of Chief Akande's house. Though no life was lost, but vehicles were vandalised.
Did I mention the ruling party's gimmicks and threats at opposition parties to prevent any form of campaigns? It is noteworthy that AKALA gave Mapo hall it's present stunning look but dissapointing that the same hall is now reserved only for APC rallies.
This speaks volume considering the "NO CLASS" status our party's guber candidature (AKALA-OLAIYA) is being labeled, even though that has been refuted at DG and Guber debates respectively.
As if that is not enough, on retiring to our various homes in the tail of the night, we received a call informing us of the sporadic shootings at our party loyalist in Eruwa and Igbo-ora by members of the campaign train of Mr Adelabu and godfather KOSELERI which claimed the life of two persons and left several others injured. Behold the insecurity legacies of penkele!
Will someone then relay this message to the APC, that We will live to greet "Happy new month" for the months of March, April, and May. Likewise, come June 12, 2019, we will welcome the pace-setter state to a new beginning.
