One day Gov Mimiko saw the actor boarding a taxi and was surprised. When the Governor found out that one of his favorite actors does not have a car and it was his birthday in a few days, he directed his aides to take him to a car shop and get him a car. Saidi got the 2011 Toyota Camry worth about N4million. He's been in cloud 9 ever since.* End of story!
You have to admit, I'm a good story teller. My English might not be perfect, but I know how to tell a story...lol
Linda can you be any funnier than you already are, quirky babe
ReplyDeleteThat is my gov. For u, he can do she karimi too much.many people are jobless in ondo state and many a begging for 10,000 par month, but instead nar 4million naira gbada he fit do. God go jurj o. Any way congrat to saidi balogun.
ReplyDeleteLucky him. It s gd to be in entertainment industry ooooo. Linda, u try wEll wEll w ur story telling. Am I the first to comment?
ReplyDeleteLinda, your English is always perfect.
ReplyDeleteLmao, I love u Linda jare. Congrats to d new car onwer though
ReplyDeletei'm surprised that with all the money saidi makes, he couldn't afford a new one. I'm just curious, i'm not in any way condemning him. In fact, I applaud him for cutting his coat according to his size.
ReplyDeleteLinda u better start boarding taxi in front of Fashola or around govt house. U never know..one day Fashola go be like how can Lagos state number one blogger be in Keke Napep..like that he go buy u Range or better still BMW. Just saying...
ReplyDeleteLol...you made my morng,lmao.....linda u don hear o
Deletefind it hard to believe saheed balogun couldnt afford a new car on his own
ReplyDeleteHis car was stolen madam p, besides actors don't get paid so much as 2 afford replacing a stolen car immediately. Don't be fooled by d lavish lifestyle of nollywood actresses who f*** senators 4 money. I've always loved dis actor he deserves it
DeleteNigeria governors abi na politicians i go call them, they never cease to amaze me about how they discharge their responsibilies. Only in naija dem dey do yeye anniversaries.. Do your job and let your citizens/people celebrate you for jobs well done not wasting resources meant for poor ppl on yeye anniveraries, irrevelant spending sprees on entertainers when citizens are dying from joblessness, hunger etc. #MyHeartBleedsForNaija#
ReplyDeleteHehehe@Bola... You be great comedian. I love your suggestion to Linda...hehehe
ReplyDeleteJuju
ReplyDeleteBee ur joke is off d hook.. Well lyn try that and let's see.. Keke napepe OMG!!! U might b surprised LYN Babatunde fit say make Im marry u as his favourite Bloga.. Na so u go become 2nd lady for d whole of Lagos state.. Wat do u think Hun? U r 2 much lyn..
ReplyDeleteIt was his jack pot day, I guess.
ReplyDeleteOffcourse you do know how to do Amebo, that's why I carry my phone to run after you first thing in the morning instead of saying my prayers or brushing my mouth. Lol.
ReplyDeleteThis is a waste of public funds.
ReplyDeleteLaff Wan Scatter My Brain or is Laff Wan PingMe Die ....Gamugaza
ReplyDeletetalk about Favour!
ReplyDeleteShame on the governor. I am from his state. Even though, I live comfortably, thousands of mile from home, I still feel for people in Ondo State; villages without good road, healthcare, schools, good water, and this fool went and bought a Camry for an entertainer. Favorite star my **s*o*e!
ReplyDeleteThe Governor is a̷ good guy, saidi Balogun is lucky, and they live happily ever after....Linda I try pass yu for storytelling abeg...lol
ReplyDeleteNoice!!!
ReplyDeleteSo as accomplished as Saidi is he cant afford a car, but numerous Naija actresses who have no accomplishments other than one or two useless films to their name are riding brand new range rovers...
ReplyDeleteSo Ondo state governor has never seen an applicant on the streets, sweating n walking from pillar to post looking for a job so he can be touched n give the jobs seeker a job right away?
ReplyDeleteor heard/seen some one suffering from one ailment or the other so he can donate the full cash for the treatment of such a person?
it amazes me at the way we do things n call it help. i have no issues with the gov buying saidi a car but beleive me its all media stunts. some cheap stunts.saidi can afford a car with all the yoruba movies he's been directing n acting. all this ones na wash wash. funds meant for the ondo masses naim e take buy 4million naira motor for one man. rubbish!
Bola gurl u tripping?? it shod be "BMW better still Range"! BMW ain't gat nufink on Range u know...lol!!
ReplyDeleteJames Bond s one of my favorite actor so am happy for him, in btw I dont speak or type good english as well but am a successful woman and that makes us tick Linda, dont feel bad about that

ReplyDeleteI'm so sure that na Taxpayer's money dem go take buy that car oo...God dey
ReplyDeleteLinda linda linda.u too funny o
ReplyDeleteSaidi, congtrs... Govt Mimi, how i wish u can do d same for a lot of people suffering in different hospitals wt different ailments, some need just #3m, #2m,#4m for kidney transplant, surgeries and all that.. Pls let ds our so called govs,ministers, senators learn to give out of their largesse to d sick pple in d hospitals.. This will help move ds country forward...
ReplyDeleteHmmm Linda ur English isn't dat bad. Wow congratulations Saidi Balogun. Cn sum1 plz buy me a car?*rme*
ReplyDeleteCongrats to Saidi Balogun,,,,,,all dis politicians sef......na to dey show themselves.......
ReplyDeleteBola, you are a serious comedian, kai, wo, she go board tire, a pe to pe, that fashola? abi the werey will even greet you and remind you to pay your tax. OYO is your case.
ReplyDeleteSeriously i love your comments. I stalk you on both linda and Ladun's blog. But i'm sorry if it seems as if Bola is currently weaning me off you. Upgrade pls
DeleteHehehehe, u wan make i arrest u. Stalking ke? I wish i knew ur name or at least an alias so i fit dy hail u cuz this is like d third time u r reaching out. Thanks oo. As per upgrading, no oshofree for alibaba show :-)
DeletePls do a little more investigation. How can a 2011 Toyota Camry be N4m in 2012? A 2011 Toyota Corolla is N4m.
ReplyDelete@Bola, abeg give my girl her proper title. Lagos state number one blogger ke...ka mari! She is naija number one blogger. Naija will always be Naija, I personally see the gift as pointless and a waste of resources, the money could have been put to better use.Mr Balogun should work and buy his own car like most responsible men would do.
ReplyDelete@Betty Adex, I am absolutely feeling you, my persin(not sure whether you are a broda or sista, so for now you are my persin)
linda ur simply sooo funny n real.laff haf nearly kii me here.
ReplyDeletethis says a lot.hmmm...........
ReplyDeletethose actresses had better start confessing where they get their money from.
see how govt money is spent?
ReplyDeleteMimoko,If this story is true, the wrath of God will visit you.
nawa ooo 4 million oga gov just like that and have you finished looking after the old pensioners in your state???
ReplyDeleteAnd no one sees anything wrong with this? The governor just spent the state's money like his own personal piggy bank. These are the things that disgust me about
ReplyDeleteMy grandad had been retired from the Ondo state government for the last 20 years. I saw him last Dec and he told me Oct was the 2nd time he had received his pension in all that time. Can U imagine this? Yet this Idiot (yes Mimiko is an idiot) is buying his fave actor a whip. Disgusting people (spitting on your grave. Hope U die slow).
ReplyDeletehmmm are u sure saidi isnt his gay partner?hmmm just saying ohhh
ReplyDeletethat is a great post linda.
ReplyDeleteHahaha . . .I laugh in Obolo. If this was an actress (as someone has already inferred in an aside manner), she would have been an ashawo; sleeping with govs, senators and who have you. Man no dey ash . . . but deserves it. Shame on you lot.
ReplyDeleteif he bought him the car out of his allowance, no need for the publicity stunt. however, if its tax payers money he used, i want my own too!! that's econonsense
ReplyDeleteCongratulations ooooooooooo
ReplyDeleteJoke: Miss Buga 2011-2012 is Linda Ikeji.
ReplyDeleteYou have guts and that is what it takes. Your English comment about yourself is funny. At least you graduated with an English degree from a top university in Nigeria.
Go girl! News reporting is a skill and not about knowing good English all the time since an editor can edit the rubbish. Ok! That is why it is easy for stars to become newspaper columnists at anytime.
linda join the wagon ooo so that you fit collect free car like this tooo kai
ReplyDelete@Bola your too much with that your suggestion. I think Linda should give it a thought seriously... Who knows? It might just click! Lol!
ReplyDeleteI love you Linda. You inspire and make me laugh a great deal! God bless and keep u!
Linda,I just saw this man today inshort 25 mins ago driving a silver coloured toyota camry around seriki aro street ikeja with a lady.That car is a 2008 camry so lets be straight b4 dem go rob am again.kUDOS
ReplyDeletesee ur mouth, is it that easy to replace a stolen car? psheeww! abeg he should enjoy his new ride, my advice "get some insurance"
ReplyDeleteWell i hope that was a personal donation and not tax payers money.
ReplyDeleteNa wash, we will soon hear the real reason he bought Saidi the car. Guru guru runs.
ReplyDeleteGood for him. I think wat happen to hi back then was blessing in disgise. am appy fr him.
ReplyDeleteGood for him. I think wat happen to hi back then was blessing in disgise. am appy fr him.
ReplyDeleteThats my gov. Iroko joo, gba sibe
ReplyDeletefor the ignorant talking do knw how many pple mimiko gives money for medical assistant both on hrt and renal cases... pls go check ur facts right... have u hrd abt the pple he employed on both permanent and temporary basis... u saying you are living abroad why dnt u come down to ondo state and see the transformations yrsef... am not a politician and not on his pay roll but i went to my old schl recently i almost thot i was in the wrg place... it had bn transformed even beyond my imagination. mind u everybody cant be employed by the state government and if Nigerians can swallow their pride and do half of the kind of jobs they do abroad then we can move fwd.
ReplyDeletei am not saying 4 million is a small money but it is even possible he buys it for him from his personal pocket... Nigerians shld stop hating....
with govt money! what rubbish!
ReplyDelete
