Other Side! – Adewale Sobowale

Nigerians are an interesting lot. I actually don’t know which is funnier between Nigeria and its citizens.

What’s this I’m hearing about a young man unseating Kongi, Professor Wole Soyinka?

Why are Nigerians so much in a hurry that to listen to the other party has always been a problem?

Why are they taking analgesics over another person’s headache?

I bet Nigeria would have been a much better country if they could listen to their now dwindling prophets.

Rather, we’re ready to use a sledgehammer to kill an ant whenever any thing that ordinary people would have swept under the carpet for their being inconsequential happens.

Agreed, the prof made a mistake in seating on another’s seat. The guy has the final say in determining whether or not to allow prof retain his seat.

By the way, hope we all realize everyday, life is a risk. If any hazardous event had happened on that flight, would the passengers not have been identified by their duly allocated seats?

Now, it’s said that anyone who uses the story of one person to judge a case is nothing but a wicked person.

Did the ‘right thinking’ fellows bother to listen to the other party?

They did not even hear first hand from the prof’s mouth. They only learnt from an alleged tweet.

Okay, we’ve since heard the other side of the story. The guy says the prof even commended him. He further told him that if other Nigerians could be like him, the country would not have been in such a sorry state.

S’o tan!

I’ve since learnt the other side is unreal!
So Nigerian!!
