Re: Allen Sowore’s Eiye Orofo.. A cry from sako jiya exponent

Ayomide Mubarak

In an attempt to coverup the painful effect of the success of the Campaign Flag off, of the Peoples Democratic Party on its already deflated and battered popularity, the All Progressive Congress (APC) in Ondo, through it’s town crier, Allen Sowore, went to town on Tuesday evening, to do what they know how to do best, spilling black lies.

In a write up which exposes the secret agony of the ruling party and it’s fears ahead of the November 16 gubernatorial election, the black liar’s megaphone, made a failed attempt to tell the people that the colour of the sky is black despite it’s obvious brightness.

Before now, it was almost impossible for public concerns or any one in public office to tell white lies in our dear state. But things have changed, black liars have taken over the affairs and it has become common place for propagandists to walk around with thier shoulders high , with no iota of shame.

They have become comfortable with lies, so much that, they are beginning to sometimes believe their own lies. But the people are never deceived.

Unknown to them however, they have become subjects of ridicule and topic for comedy at beer parlours, as people have seen them for exactly who they are: Propagandists who have no relationship with the most essential aspect of governance being integrity.

The worst harm anybody or organization can do itself, is to live in self denial, but unfortunately, this is the life of the All Progressive Congress in Ondo state.

Because it’s not all eyes that are opened that could see, that’s why Sowore could be excused for his ridiculous submission, that the crowd at the PDP campaign flag off on Tuesday was scanty.

Of course, that is usually the response of people Yorubas call “Sako jiya” . They attempt to cover up thier pain with fake smile when everyone could see them reeling in uncontrollable pain. That is the life of a ‘Sako Jiya’.
Ondo APC is no doubt, a typical example of a Sako Jiya boxer, who though under severe heat in the ring, but beaming fake cover up smiles. Who is deceiving who.

The APC’s pain over the grand success of the PDP flag off is understandable. They never imagined the turn out, despite their unsuccessful attempt to ensure the event does not get the desired result, by the denial of the use of the Democracy Park.

It’s so unfortunate that liars are in charge of the lives of honorable and sincere people of our dear state. The main reason they gave for declining the PDP use of the Democracy Park was because a group paid to use the place on Tuesday. I challenge Sowore and his co- liars to produce evidence that the space was in use on Tuesday.

It’s only natural that the APC will attempt to blow a trumpet they don’t own, because as things stands in the state today, the party does not have the number to win an election . The daily defection of people from the party are clear testimonies and this has diminished the stature of the party a great deal.

For instance, but for Sowore’s noise in his tissue of lies, one wouldn’t have known his party had any function in Ikare as recent as this week .That’s how unpopular the ruling party has become.

Little wonder they resort into purchasing people with dollars which has unfortunately dried up. Because they had to source money to buy more hungry and expired politicians, the already beautiful security fence of government house must be redesigned and government house sitting room furniture must be changed for billions of naira. What will black liars not do to hang on to a false hope.

Apparently what happened on Tuesday , was that Sowore and his co- travellers were too intimidated to hit the street to see first hand, how glorious the PDP flag off event was. But reports got to them and they could not bear the defeat of thier intention for locking up the Democracy Park against the party.

Above all however, our people did not hide their intention to sweep away the pain dispensers out of office come November.

Our people’s voice was loud enough on Tuesday, that they can’t withstand the pains and failed government any longer. Whether the liars like it or not however, Ondo voters will have their say in November when they shall cease to be UNLUCKY.
