ReplyDeleteA very poor newly wedded, young couple lived in a small farm. One day the husband made the following proposal to his wife: Honey, I will leave the house: I will travel faraway, get a job and work hard in order to come back and give you the comfortable life that you deserve. I do not know how long I will stay away, I only ask one thing, please wait for me, and while I am away, you should be faithful to me, because I will be faithful to you.
His wife agreed, so the young man left. He walked many days until he found a farmer who was in need of someone to help him. The young man offered his services. He was accepted. Therefore he discussed the terms with his boss: Let me work for as long as I want and when I think I should go home, please relieve me of my duties. I do not want to receive my salary. I ask you to save it for me, until the day I leave. The day I decide to go, please give me the money and I will go my way. They agreed on that. So, the young man worked for twenty years without holiday and without rest. After twenty years, he came to his boss and said: Boss, I want my money, because I am returning to my home. The boss replied: All right, after all, I made a deal with you and I will stick to it. However, before you go I want to offer you something new: I will give you all your money and send you away; or I will give you 3 pieces of advice and send you away. If I give you money, you lose the 3 pieces of advice. If I give you the 3 pieces of advice, you lose the money. Now, go to your room and think about your answer. He thought for two days. Then he went to the boss and told him: I want the 3 pieces of advice. The boss stressed again, if I give you the 3 pieces of advice, I will not give you the money, and the man replied: I want the 3 pieces of advice. The boss then told him:

ReplyDeleteHe ruled with Jakande as deputy during shagari, not abacha
ReplyDeleteJakande and Jafojo governed Lagos state between 1979 and 1983 and not as stated. It is also wrong to state that it was during Abacha era.

ReplyDeleteJakande was never Gov of Lagos btw 93-98, he was Gov from 79-83 before Buhari sent him and others packing. Jakande was minister under Sani Abacha 93-98

Always do your findings before you feed people with wrong information, Jafojo was deputy governor to Jakande in the year 1979 to 1983 during Shagari term, and not 1993 - 1998 of Abacha regime as you quoted.
ReplyDeleteProlly a mistake in your post. Jafojo was d/gov in 1979 or so.
