Forumers, I urge you strongly to show some love for the NFA Secretary-General by signing this thread. Many thanks.

Dear Taiwo,

If you're reading this (and I know you aren't) I would like to show you how much we football loving Nigerians appreciate your efforts and inexorable pursuit of excellence in your role as Secretary-General of the NFA (if you weren't aware, NFA in an acronym for Nigerian Football Association, if you weren't aware, an acronym is a word formed from the initial...oh never mind!)

I fondly recall how you sacked Musa Abdullahi halfway through the qualifying competition; how you failed to censure Martins and Inter Milan by not taking his case to FIFA; how you inserted Ekong's name into Nigeria's ANC squad ahead of Obodo (what a treat!); and most memorably of all, how you sat idly by and twiddled your thumbs as Nigeria's EPL players chose not to attend the Faro camp. The line "I want peace to reign" was an absolute delight!!

I'm sure you're an extremely busy man counting the days until you're no longer in your plush air-conditioned Abuja office but I feel it befitting you be commended for your endeavours.

They say actions are louder than words, and so for your efforts in the advancement of Nigerian football, I offer you this:

Best regards,
YeyeMan

PS: And take this too,

YeyeMan v2.1, when you send your letter to the NFA, please send mine with it.

Dear Ibrahim Galadima,

Multifarious avenues of approach vie for attention as potential retorts to Mr. Taiwo Ogunjobi's disreputable undertakings. Although not without overlap and simplification, I plan to identify three primary positions on Mr. Ogunjobi's philippics. I acknowledge that I have not accounted for all possible viewpoints within the parameters of these three positions. Nevertheless, Mr. Ogunjobi's faculty for deception is so far above anyone else's, it really must be considered different in kind as well as in degree. I'll give you an example of this, based on my own experience. As you know, in public, he vehemently inveighs against corruption and sin. But when nobody's looking, he never fails to defuse or undermine incisive critiques of his manipulative behavior by turning them into procedural arguments about mechanisms of institutional restraint. The right thing to do in this case is determined by various vectors of forces in an endless multidimensional tug-of-war involving ropes leading out in many directions. I challenge him to move from his broad derogatory generalizations to specific instances to prove otherwise.

"Mr. Ogunjobi" has now become part of my vocabulary. Whenever I see someone hinder economic growth and job creation, I tell him or her to stop "Ogunjobi-ing". He lives for one reason and for one reason only: to propitiate the worst sorts of deplorable clunks I've ever seen for later eventualities. Crazy bureaucrats may possess a mass of "knowledge", but their brains are unable to organize and register the material they have taken in. Loud, vile escapism is the shadow cast on society by Mr. Ogunjobi's perceptions, and as long as this is so, the attenuation of the shadow will not change the substance. A person who wants to get ahead should try to understand the long-range consequences of his/her obiter dicta. Mr. Ogunjobi has never had that faculty. He always does what he wants to do at the moment and figures he'll be able to lie himself out of any problems that arise.

Even if bad-tempered blowhards join his band with the best of intentions, they will still turn fence-sitters loose against us good citizens by the next full moon. Not all, I hasten to add, do join with the best of intentions. There's something fishy about his jeremiads. I think he's up to something, something patronizing and perhaps even indelicate. On a closing note, I hope that this letter, while incomplete, informal, and having no authority except its own inner strength and conviction, has clearly demonstrated to you that some arrogant bigamists are hopelessly temperamental.

Yours sincerely,

Eagle Winged
