OBJ - 200m to a Third Term

The question of a third term is all i've been hearing, but Obj (That’s President Obasanjo to u) was within touching distance today...i mean he was literally 200m away from my seat. I mean there was still a matter of the building I was in, a mass of armed police vehicles, more policemen and a mass of traffic that had congregated outside the street of the office I’m working out. I should have guessed this morning on the way in when I saw 4 traffic police per junction, all improvising with each others arms.

So his reason for being in Port Harcourt, Trans Amadi was to open a new Gas plant, which I was told had already been opened three times already this year. I’m guessing it’s a phased construction. I was disappointed at the lack of little national flags that normally accompanies other western presidents, I couldn’t see any school kids from my window and there where definitely no old ladies. I mean, who the hell is handling his PR. Kids, families, gas plants – cooking – the home etc etc…do I need to go on.

See only here even the main man is within touching distance. Only 200m to go....
