GENERAL T.Y. DANJUMA – TARRY AWHILE

I did not see the news item that he had passed but I saw the rebuttal. Please can we stop announcing people dead when they are still alive. It is a sick joke. From Nnamdi Azikiwe, to Obasanjo, to IBB, Nigerians keep announcing people’s obituaries up and down.

This country is a funny one. General Danjuma is a historical figure. He is a man that has played some very critical role in National History and depending on which side of the divide you are, he could either be a hero or a villain.

To me, na Hero, because he married Senator Daisy Danjuma. Ohhh my God… the mummy remains one of the most beautiful and elegant mummies I have ever seen in my life. Look, let me use the excuse of this matter to talk about her.

I used to see her picture in the papers and be asking myself, how is it possible that a woman can fine like this? To think that she even comes from Edo State. Not that Edo women are not fine o — before they come and knock my head —

Edo women are very beautiful but her kind of beauty na for Akwa Ibom you can see it.
So that is how I vowed to meet her. It took me over 10 years of plotting and strategizing. Finally, during my run for ‘Emotan’, I got the meeting in Lagos.

That is how I walked in and Madam came to meet me. My tongue glue to the roof of my mouth. I looked at her, like a mumu. She greeted me, I couldn’t talk. She must have noticed how dazzled I was by her beauty but she didn’t rub it in my face. Rather, she looked at me so warmly and told me softly “tell me what you want.” Still, the super glue no gree leave my mouth. I just told her “nothing ma.”

She laughed and started doing all the talking. When she finished, she got up and said “Sorry I have to go.” I told her “thank you” and watched her walk away, still mesmerized.
Na that kain beauty you think Papa General will be in a hurry to leave. Daddy will reach 200 and still be watching. Be watching.
