Congratulatory messages on the so-called anniversary of the fake revolution continue to rain into Sad House and smear the shining desk of our benevolent tyrant His Funky Loonsy Alhaji Doctor Amama Bissaap Rabbit Poo Poo Poo Pooyati, Square. The latest congratulatory message come from the honorable Mr. Jo Jo Pondahal of Hesewal fame, managing director of Deep Lip Enterprises. The Honorable Mr. Pondahal wrote: 
 
“Your Funky Loonsy, as you selfishly celebrate the sad anniversary of your fake revolution, please accept my condemnation, complaination and fahas for having risked our lives and normal fulfillment to steal our hopes for a better future and pride in our nation. When you stole our country, you inherited national coffers that were overflowing with the wealth of our nation, our blood and sweat! Energized by your greed as ordained by the devil, which can convert a productive and luxurious habitat into a dead land of shrubs and thorns, you have transformed our dear motherland into a land of thieving and lies, of murder and mayhem, where truth now lies buried deep in the crust of the earth, and lies are perched on the highest echelons of our national chambers. Even wild animals, birds and vegetation have felt the ugly transformation you have visited upon our dear nation. I say: shame on you Funky Loonsy!But I do not complain, O’ Funky Loonsy, because I am one of those for whom the sweet pot of putrid honey and usury have opened, thanks to you. All your horrible misdeeds serve me in good stead, O’ Funky Loonsy, for I who was a poor and depraved nonentity am now fat and wealthy, so fat and wealthy I have become mentally blind, capable of seeing and groping only in the horrible darkness of my heart and mind, a projection of the total darkness in which you now so piously stumble. But hey, hail the devil! Hail whoever gives me my daily bread and butter! For is not the world so wrote?
 
Your sudden and regrettable advent on the powerscape of our beleaguered nation fully demonstrates that it is not the lack of, or meagerness of resources that fails nations but the base attitudes of the people that mismanage them – people like you who are so greedy and selfish that you are only capable of feeling your own skin and comfort, your own base needs.  I do not say thinking of because I know you are incapable of such a thing as reflection. By your lack of vision, lack of wisdom, lack of commitment, and bad, bad, Oh so bad so-called leadership, you have shown that lack of patriotism is a pragmatic application of naked bullying tactics to starve a nation through destructive Satan-driven influences and to shun and suppress all positive energy that threatens to create knowledge and promote peace, prosperity, security and human well being for which all our common village and townsfolk are crying today.Since you stole our legitimate rights to exist as a nation, you have greedily and consistently displayed your utter lack of reliability, credibility, transparency, accountability and probity and you have consequently injected the germ of death and decadence into every sector, every community, and every progressive nook and cranny of this country. Even babies despise you intuitively and damn your name continuously on their mothers’ backs and bosoms. I have not said enough, O’ Funky Loonsy. But more darkness to your heart!
