THE GRUDGE FIGHT
Ladies and Gentlemen, we have all been waiting for this!
And we will not wait anymore!
From the ringside of this epic battle, I am honoured to bring views of particular interest.
First to the right, in yellow trunk is the challenger, the chief administrators of medical practice in the state of Lagos, Nigeria. Begrudged of their acclaimed monetary benefits from their opponent and most likely to be heavily empowered by their regional and federal arms. He is theeeeeeeeeeee Lagos State public hospital Doctors!
On the left, in red trunk is the heavyweight champion of the state of Lagos, Nigeria with fight statistics of 2 state election victories, several beautification victories over Oshodi, Obalende and recently Ijora under-bridge. He champions the innovation of transportation in Lagos with the building of the first speed train in Nigeria. He, it is, that insist that our markets must be kept clean. And our roads would be better even though it comes with the flaw of the imposition of toll gates along the Lekki-Epe Expressway. Ladies and Gentlemen, he is the chief custodian of the "EKO ONI BAJE O!" slogan and manifestations. Make welcome for Governor Babatunde Raji Fashola!
Let's get ready to rummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmble!
But before the bell goes, let's take one quick commercial!
PLEASE PLACE COMMERCIAL HERE!
COMMERCIAL:
QUESTIONS FROM THE ORDINARY MAN ON THE STREETS OF LAGOS:
1. WHO NEEDS ALL THIS DRAMA WHEN THE PEOPLE ARE DYING? DOES THE DOCTOR'S ETHICAL OATH NOT COUNT FOR ANYTHING IN THIS SITUATION?
2. WHY DOES ANYONE (INCLUDING THE GOVERNOR, IF INDEED HE DID) MAKE PROMISES THEY CANNOT KEEP AND LET LACK OF FAIRNESS AGGREVIATE THE SITUATION TO A NO-HOLD-BARRED GRUDGE MATCH?
3. ARE THE LAGOS PUBLIC HOSPITAL DOCTORS NOT AMONG THE BEST PAID STATE HOSPITAL DOCTORS IN NIGERIA?
4. WHY MUST THE FEDERAL AND REGIONAL ARMS OF THE DOCTORS' UNION ACT AS WEAPONS RATHER THAN MEDIATORS?
5. MUST WE FORGET THAT IN SITUATIONS LIKE THIS, WHEN TWO ELEPHANTS FIGHT, THE GRASS SUFFERS?
END OF COMMERCIAL.
Ladies and Gentlemen, welcome back!
BREAKING NEWS!
I have just been informed that I have lost interest in this fight!
But please note that both parties have NEEDLESSLY shifted venue of their grudge from the ring to the Court!
HAVE A NICE WEEKEND AND DON'T OVERDO WHATEVER IT IS YOU ARE TO DO, SO THAT YOU DON'T GET ILL!
