Kobojunky's Idealism And Today by Isuata: 1:32pm On Dec 19, 2009
Prior to today, all would know i have always been a stickler for "go around the mountain" if it won't giveway or give water(lol!) as against KOBO'S Idealistic way of "fight the mountain" to stand till if it doesnt giveway or give water (lol!.Today i come to realise fighting for your right could be liberating (just like WWF-dont try dis tins at home-lol!) especially when you re on your rite and you re within the law, ofcos most times you loose summin to such a cause (like i lost my right head light dis morning).
To the STory,

~nokia tune nokia tune nokia tune~ was the sound that woke me up dis morning, my g/f woke me up to get dressed and meet her at some filling station in Garki Area , to join the queue early and be able to get fuel for the car.And so after wondering why i have such an efficient g/f, i got out of bed and took the keys and ZOOM, to the queue. she was 2 cars ahed of me so i took my lappy along and we watched some movies (2012, french kiss, inglorious basterds etc, ) till 8am(from 5.30, wot a romantic i am ba!)Durig this time, a plain clothed guy came in a car parked behind my g/f in front of those of us alredy parked, their was a police station gate by d side and we were supposed to liv space for them to come in and go out.This guy came in and parked on d space and the pple spoke to him to liv but he suddenly flared up and after went into the police station. Anyways, 8.30 thereabout came and the gates were opened and and suddenly dis guy came out and joined the queue.From behind i saw my gal take a stand and said the guy(wu apparently was a police man) shld go back and queue.The police man flared up again and threatened to beat her, i gess dat was my cue, i left my car and went in to appeal to the police man to pls liv her alone and shldnt talk like he owned the queue, that he would have just appealed to the rest of the queue and everything would have bin ok, but this police man looked at me and said i was not it and started shouting after evrytin had died down a bit i ws goin back to my car when he entered his car, moved and went in front of her car, i was furious and went to the side of his car, we stsrted moving,inching each oda side by side til we got to the front, pple wer appealing to d guy to appeal he said no(<strong>apparently he was a northerner-mind you i said northerner not hausa and i ddnt min it in a tribal manner</strong>wink, all the yoruba men dia were tellin me to liv him and let him be, the ibo guys were divided on d issue some wanted to get ahed and some urged me to continue and funnily the other northerners were also divided, majority (wu wer women wer insulting him while the men jst stood and watched)-so iam not trying to be tribalistic hia pple!
back to the story,

we got to the gate, i used my everyday Lagos training in the hold-up of isolo to island to out wit the guy and blocked the gates(though i ws previosly on the road and no more on the queue).So i blocked the gate and the man from entering into the filling station and the station attendants came in and opened the oda gate for the cars behind him to liv and enter into the sation while i blocked him and and cornered him to a standstill, after a minute pple started coming out to rain abuses and curses on the policeman, even his colleagues cldnt do anytin.(In all dis, i ws surprised that i ws prayin to GOD to see me thru dis ordeal without accidental dischrge story or espiri de corp solidarity and GOD did come to my rescue)

The pple were jubilant and the fuel attendants brot in hevy metal to block his way while i cld go into the station and get fuel but by this time, i had lost my right front head light and he had a big dent by the side of his car


Now my tots were as follows:

people came and prayed for me and were happy that we ovacme the policeman and displaced him <strong>but i had lost my front head light to the cause</strong>

wot if the police man had removed a gun and shot in the air? wot if he and his fellow officers deicided to make it more serios?wot wld have happened to me?

As i left the filling station, tghe tots dat came to mind were: on the short run, i won a battle against a police man and also lost my head light in d process(which cld cost me bout 2-4k to fix back)<strong>considering that i liv within my mins,the car i use is not a car dats beyond my mins,so i cn afford to replace the head light without dieing in d process</strong> But wot if i am like many dat took loans to buy a car,just to be an abuja big boy, wia wld d mony to get headlights to the amounts of 20-40k come from? Does that min, i wldnt even dare fight the man in d 1st place? becos i know if anytin happens to the car,mony no dey to immediately fix d lights back.

But on the long run; <strong>i realised that we the pple on the queue won dis battle,we made this policeman have a rethink,someone exclaimed he wld continue to patronise dat station from now on becos the attendants came and supported me(more biz 4 dem, lol)and someow it has changed some1's mind on dat queue dat justice can still be fought for in dis country, a northern woman actually exclaimed "dat becos of wot you did, i know Nigeria still have a future and pple wu wld stand and fight for our happiness" now dats makes a hero feel gr8</strong>

In summary, its not bad to fight for your rite or stnd for it, infact its the best thing to do but it has to be within reason though.You yourself must be above board to be able to win such a fight.
<strong>For Pol Section of NL wots d morale hia, dat we degenerate to ethnic bigotry really doesnt help us move forward, dat we feel a section or some sections of dis country re responsible for our woes wont move us forward but insted wot have you done in your own lil way to make the oda nigerian believe dat we have a future worth fighting for?</strong>

today was food for tot and <strong>i would cast my vote now for best pol section person to KOBOJUNKIE, Aloy Emeka,Babapupa and d northern chick (wots her name again?)</strong>

As for the rest of SEFAGO, MEKUSXXX,Ezaichi and the rest of the gang

i always look forward to your comments, i have lernt alot from all your historical beefs,i neva even knew about b4, i have lernt of the emotions carried about by ethinicities in Nigeria and i have also lernt ow to continue to relate wit fellow nigerians.

But i would like to give sum pointers to the clamour for revisiting the biafran war:<strong>wot i suggest is simple, the Bifran pple like Eziachi who were part of the war, wot memorial have you yourselves built, i know for a fact that in concerted efforts are made to build and BRAND(which is d operativ word hia) a Biafran memorial wall or a day, i tell the whole country will follow suite, if the states in d Biafran region take up such a day and dedicate it to her pple dat were lost, the world wld mourn with dem, the nigerain state wont have a choice than to adopt it </strong> its only a suggestion dat i think wld work.Fellow NL mates, as we enter into the newyr let the spirit fairness be in each and every1 of us(even as followers)lets even leave our leaders out of dis for some mins and tackle ourselves, we'll be the better for it!

merry xmas all
