Kan Kan Kan SHOOTS DOWN "SPARROWS" AT SLBC

And it came to pass that Kan Kan Kan finally met the staff of SLBC under the wise leadership of Hallowed Be Thy Name. You can guess already what the meeting was about. It was about dealing with another strike action over unpaid salaries. SLBC under Hallowed Be Thy Name, has experienced more strikes than the mining sector in South Africa as a whole.

OLUNIYI SACKED, DISCIPLINARY ACTION PENDING AT NPA, LONDON CALLING?

The biggest story so far this week has to be the sacking of the minister of energy and his deputy and the suspension of the top echelons at NPA. Here is a State House press release announcing the decision:

STATE HOUSE - "IN THE PAST FEW WEEKS, SEVERAL MEETINGS WERE HELD AT STATE HOUSE TO REVIEW OUR ENERGY PROJECTS.

ARMED FORCES DAY IS HERE AGAIN BUT PROBLEMS REMAIN

Another Armed Forces holiday is around. On this day every year, our soldiers are made to feel loved and cared for. Pallo puts on a big show, costing a lot of money and he talks all over the place about what he has done for our soldiers. To be honest there's nothing wrong with people creating the impression the world rests on their shoulders. What would be wrong is when in probably "acknowledging" that, we do not point out that not all that glitters is gold.

POLICE OFFICER JAILED FOR CORRUPTION. AND THE 50TH ANNIVERSARY CASE?

The beleaguered ACC congratulated itself for a rare court victory the other day. We say they celebrated because the news of a police officer convicted for corruption was told to the mountains by means of a widely-circulated ACC press release. In the usual way, the media in this country ran with the story. Nothing bad about that but should the media have exercised some caution just in case?

With what we now know about the ACC, we dare suggest that they may just have celebrated too soon.

CAN WE HAVE THE REAL SLFA ELECTIONS NOW, PLEASE?

POPULIST ORBANGU TO DRAG WAEC TO COURT? ELECTION 2018.

From "corrupt police", to Abacha Street market relocation, the SLPP leadership question, etc. now to the WAEC results, Orbangu's UDM bandwagon rolls on. We stand by the WAEC candidates/pupils who want to be told why their results were withheld but frankly we find it absolutely ridiculous that for the purpose of securing the services of lawyers to drag WAEC to court, Orbangu would actually lead a march to the law courts building. This is the mindless populism we are talking about. Utterly disgusting populism!

SBB DUMBUYA IS THE NEW SPEAKER: WE KNEW THAT A MONTH AGO

So what next for our dear former Speaker of Parliament, Justice Abel Stronge? He hung in there and saw all the plotters plot his removal from office. We wanted to say POLITICAL DEMISE but hmmm, Dis na Salone, never say die. Some have been brutally removed from one place and recycled as old wine in new bottles. In any case we shall one day get the full story behind the forced resignation of Stronge. We don't know when that day will come. We venture to say though that it will be sooner rather than later.
