In a Mumu world where Mods hide my Mumu "second Mumu to comment"comment.

rill: Chill, u guys actually read all that

Not everyone is a mumu, there are some of us who couldnt resist such a well-written article especially as it has no link with Tonto Dike.

segxes23: u r indeed a typical mumu nigerian. Not ready to take any action

You re the mumuest mugu for not understanding my post infact ur mumuness is beyond cure.

talk2valen: 38. Interesting to note that one of the teams involved in these shows of shame, the Police Machine, represents the Police Force. Now who would investigate this scandal?

Wow this is an interesting point raised by Lagbaja, never thought of it this way before now. Just imagine!

40. Since four teams were involved, multiply the number of conspirators by 4 (except match officials and spectators which should be multiplied by "only" 2). Hence, the scam was done in the open. It was a confident public show of shame. No... two confident simultaneous scams. No problem as corruption is everywhere.

Confident, open and simultaneous attempts to out-scam the other!

Haven't you noticed that Naija stories keep getting worse? Our failure in the past to deal with small issues has made them develop into the current compound issues we have now. And tell you what, failure to deal with the current issues would bring even bigger ones soon. Unaddressed problems would not go away but evolve into mammoth ones and it's going to be an endless cycle until either we stop it, or the whole thing implodes.

Many years ago who would have ever thought:
* the legalization of pedophilia would be an issue for national discourse?
* our education system would virtually collapse?
* we would still be dealing with bad roads and lack of power in 2013?
* our national honors would be conferred and national saboteurs?
* Nigerians would start moving to Ghana?!
* we would be labelled a terrorist country?

So, as long as we do nothing, we should expect to continue to hear increasingly worse reports. Who knows what's next?

'A nation of mumus' couldn't be more apt

Oga Lagbajs u too much o u are an advanced m u.m.u , ur own mumu can see. Anyways, no nation is nt mumuish in nature. Dats human being or beans for u. Lol. Only dat d westernn mumus are advance
d n can see so it's difficult for dia mumu leaders to cheat. But enough mumus still exist. Gay right is mumu of highest order if u
Must ask me. Ok back home. I totally agree with lagbajs. Cos it's only in a land of d mumus dat 4 students be killed d way dey kill aluu boys n till dte no picture of d killers . In dat same mumuan state, an honorable used stick to design his fellow mumu°s head. And have got to sue d police for 50m. Am trying my best not to allow my children to become mumu cos am already one by accident. My view tho

Lagbaja u will always be my Man, babamukomuko ni ilu Mumudom

zonaking: This man must be the father of Mumu land! If your environs is percieved as mumu kingdom,pls count Nigeria out of it. Your type is the reason why the contry remain its sorry state! Sabo! Your only telling us the problem has affected amechi without seeing the other side of Amechi. Infact this president is the most kindest presdo Nig will ever produce! Mark my word. If we were to reverse power between GEJ and Amechi,I wonder wia GEJ wud ve been Now! You only saw a new mace but what become of said new mace is unknown to you-mumu! Amechi dt suspended local govt, chairmen becus they attend his function some minutes behind schedule.I neither support Amachi nor GEJ buh wat am saying is "if you don't like bitter leaf soup don't serve it to others as a must take soup"

See mumu....mumurised beyond redemption, as all you could see in the legendary 'song' is Amaechi's case!

I am so sure we would see various variations of the word "Mumu". Trust Nigerians, ever creative!

owolabifunke14: Lagbaja one of the mumus always covering his face to sing and sell to his follow mumus in this mumudom.

He's nt denying

[b]46. In the Mumu land where the president feeds on 1 Billion Naira (pA) at the expense of common citiZen who can't afford 1-1-0 or can hardly afford 1-0-0 meal ratio in a day.

47. In the Mumu land where police can shoot a bus driver who had refused to part with #20 naira note as carrot.

48. In the Mumu land where just a mere domestic appendage (Prof. Wole, S. 2013) behaves like an officially and politically constituted individual.

49. In the Mumu country where prospect of being gainfully employed is not based on merits but of whom you know and who are your parents.

50. In the Mumu land where a merited master degree holders have to resolve to riding commercial bike or tri-cycles (Okada/Keke Napep) in a bid of putting something on the table for his families whereas somewhere, somehow some other mumus with a purchased bachelor degree certificates or third class-graded secondary school leaving certificates are occupying political offices dipping their hands in the public funds in misappropriated manners.

51. In the Mumus' land where youths are made to believe that education is a legacy and a good way to earn a good future but millions of Nigerians Uni and tertiary institutions' graduates are without gainful employments and many more are being produced on yearly basis.

52. In the Mumus's land where much interest and millions worth in financial resources are being focused and diverted into furnishing of the office of the 'First lady', and little emphasis and efforts are being directed towards creating of companies and corporate/fed establishments to employ abled hands among Nigerian youth populace.

53. In the Mumus' land where degree holders are working as bank security personnel at the gate taking home 15-18k per month and things seems to be normal in the eyes of the government.

54. In the Mumus' land where so many youngsters with supposed and likely to have been destined with bright futures had all taken to the street, becoming street urchins in the sole aim of making it quick; dropping out of schools at tender age; knowing fully well that the end does justify the means at the long-run.

55. In the Mumus' land where destinies and a lot of destinies had been killed/terminated, dreams have turned nothing but just fantasies that would and can never become a reality.

56. In the Mumus' land where basic amenities are seen as bonuses to citizens rather than a democratic rights of an individual's.

57. In the Mumus's land where citizens pay monthly bills but never enjoy good services.

58. In the Mumus' land where an ill-founded and dysfunctional commission get praised whenever they capture a subordinate criminal while the higher and national criminals and democratic armed robbers are being left undisturbed and unparaded.

59. In the Mumus' land where the teeming population of youths believed traveling out of the country to seek greener pasture is the only way out of poverty for them because the terrain has always been the rich getting richer while the poor are getting poorer. (Get Rich or Die Tryin).

60. In the Mumus' land where despite our over 50years of gaining independence we are still walking at a snail-pace, under the guise/pretensious belief that 'Rome wasn't built in a day'.

Make I no forget to add this, Mumus' land where in spite all fingers and glaring indications, a convict would be discharged an acquitted for a sinister political appointment gains.

Ma kontiri pipu, I res ma kas. [/b]

Lagbaja is apt in d description of d nation brohaha.
Never knew Lagbaja can write like this.

$MumuLand members discussing the situation of things in mumudom.

rigormortis: THANK GOD I AM AN AMERICAN OF NIGERIAN DESCENT

how does that make you any less mumu?

No be small thing. We need help. God please don't get tired of us. Lagbaja, wetin our eyes never see? If we too talk na jail. You self, begin watch your back o. Nice writeup.

demelza: I am so sure we would see various variations of the word "Mumu". Trust Nigerians, ever creative!

No, it is not creativity. It is trivializing the message. We play and laugh @ very serious things affecting our very lives. That is why i keep saying, there can NEVER be a revolution in this Mumu country.

Tonitelli:

Stfu mumu!!!the guy has nagged out more sense than you ever have in your miserable life of existence on nairaland and beyond!!!we are here talking abt issues of importance you are comparing record sales......following wizkid at your age..u need deliverance!!!ode!!!

Spot on!

my brother its a pity for us and nigeria. i hate the fact that iam from this stupid country.[s][/s]

27. Final scores... Jang 13, Amaechi 19, but
in the land of mumus Mathematics has a
different interpretation for 13 is greater than
19. Even the President of the mumus ratifies
that.[/quote]
Maybe cos 13 comes before 19. LOL. God bless the mumudom

Hun hun only God knows

And the mumu mods on MumuNairland have conspired to make sure that the genius of Orikinla should not make the fornt page again lest his shining light makes the mumus on MumuNairaland to realize their predicament and repent of their mumuism.

Na wa oooOOO!

Nigeria! the MUMU ^kingdom

from the part of the country i came from, there is fresh air every where. But Mumu is now the order of the day in the westerner part of Nigeria, whereby one man is now deciding every ones faith, Tinubu

Mumunized nation

"only ppl crazy enough to believe they can change tthe world can "
so we the 200 million mumu must PUSH BACK COS THE WALL IS CHAFING O

Lagbaja Omo Baba muko muko... Bros, u are more than a rights Activist. but ACTUALISATION is what i long for, all these grammar cannot make the change. And if you are invited for a show by the President, of cos you'll attend!!!

A Mumu kingdom where thousands of graduats comes out every year and still only those dat has God fathers gets the job,only by the grace of God u get the job by merit.

zonaking: This man must be the father of Mumu land! If your environs is percieved as mumu kingdom,pls count Nigeria out of it. Your type is the reason why the contry remain its sorry state! Sabo! Your only telling us the problem has affected amechi without seeing the other side of Amechi. Infact this president is the most kindest presdo Nig will ever produce! Mark my word.

SMH!!! And they say this country will be great again? with the kind of people like you

talk2valen: Dear Okey Ndibe: Thank you for sounding the alarm in a way that should make us reflect deeper. Mumu is not a condition I proudly proclaim. It was with a heavy heart that I came to this shocking realization that we are indeed a country of mumus. Harsh as it might sound, no other explanation would suffice. It is apparent that the "leaders" know that they would always get away with whatever incredible schemes they concoct because, amongst other reasons,

(a) the mumu people they "lead" are no different from their mumu "leaders" in character

(b) the mumu people are gullible, superstitious and naive

(c) there are no consequences for criminal acts if you belong to the right group

(d) these mumus never demand accountability from their "leaders"

(e) the mumus expect their rulers to loot or would otherwise consider them foolish

Apologies for the seeming overgeneralization but the vast majority runs with this mumu mindset.

There is a limit to how much one can squeeze into a song before sounding less music than sermon. Please permit me to expatiate using your perimeter of "recent events in the past week or two".

For simplicity I would use a numbered list to analyze and highlight a few seemingly disparate but absurd mumurity examples and indicators.

1. 5 members trying to impeach a governor would make you think there are probably only 6 or 7 members of the House of Assembly. According to the assembly's website there are 31 members. For mumus, 5 out 31 constitutes a majority.

2. In the land of mumus you can make your own mace and confer it with automatic authority, elect a "new Speaker" and swear him in.

3. No single hospital in Nigeria to entrust the unfortunately injured member with. He had to be flown to the UK.

4. Flown abroad ... likely on tax payers' account

5. Treated ... likely on tax payers' account

6. Visited by officials... likely on tax payers' account (business or first class tickets?)

7. Nyesom Wike the Minister of State who led the visit was until recently the Governor's (Amaechi's) Chief of Staff. He was allegedly nominated for the Ministerial position by Governor Amaechi. 

8. Shouldn't the mumus wonder how Nyesom Wike as Minister of State for Education found the time for this all important trip while abandoning his post in spite of the raging crisis in his ministry with the Academic staff union of Nigerian universities currently on strike? Well the mumu staff and students can rot in hell I guess.

9. Madam Patience would probably have "visited" too, if not for the noise such would generate. So for now, the victim suffers alone.

10. The erstwhile pontificating police boss of the State could not find the patient's prominent attacker for over a week.

11. Madam Patience having first denied any involvement in the crisis while verbally attacking Soyinka, eventually owns up "pouring out her grievances".

12. She owns up to a group of visiting Bishops who came on a peace making mission to find a lasting solution to the crisis in their region. Religion is always an easy scapegoat and tool of deception in mumudom.

13. Why would you even think that the Bishops would go back empty handed? Any "transport fare/thank-you-for-coming", if received, would have likely been financed on tax payers' account.

14. And why are we ranting about "tax payers"? Why are the tax payers not furious over the incessant misappropriation and misapplication of their hard earned contributions? The answer lies in the question... Aside from PAYE, how many are compliant in mumudom?

15. First a set of 5 Governors and 3 Deputy Governors (representing their respective Governors), left their duty posts for a solidarity visit with the embattled Governor of Rivers State... of course to the detriment of tax payers. (a) They were not on leave, but left urgent work and duties behind for the "emergency" solidarity visit. (b) Flight to and fro Port Harcourt of course likely on tax payers' account.

16. They were closely followed by a second set of 4 commiserating sympathetic Governors. Of course, again likely on tax payers' account.

17. Madam Patience's grievance, as she divulged to the visiting Bishops, started when Governor Amaechi refused to be governed by her, as he would not listen to her veiled orders on how to govern the State... which incidentally is her primary territory being her State of origin. Mumus have no problem with that, fully being in harmony with her as she sings as first lady in Abuja while simultaneously dancing in absentia as Permanent Secretary in Bayelsa and conducting the orchestra in home state, Rivers.

18. Madam ends her confession to the Bishops by saying that Amaechi is her son as she is obviously the mother of everyone in mumudom. The question all mumus should ask is, "Would a good mother promote the demise of her child?"

19. Where was her outraged sense of motherhood when Senators were busy voting to turn mumudom into a Nation of pedophiliacs at the expense of her innocent "daughters"?

20. Where was her outraged sense of "mother of the Nation" when the video of 5 gang rapists went viral. Has she used that "mother of the Nation" power to find the culprits? Not a priority in mumudom.

21. Where was her outraged "motherhood of mumudom" when 46 school children were murdered in Yobe? Indeed the whole Nation of mumus have just gone on with their more important mumu lives like nothing happened.

22. Which brings us to the insane mumurity that gives the "leaders" confidence to try pranks such as the attempt at crafting the under age marriage law, knowing that with the mumus... "nothing go happen"

23. In the land of mumus, the rulers know they can always throw in the religious card, so Senator Yerima leads the child slavery onslaught with the religious chant.

24. While all this was going on, 79 year old OPC founder, Dr. Fasheun was, in his own description, "delivering" Mustapha to Kano.

25. Soon after, Gumsu Sani Abacha had the courage to rant on social media about her proud heritage... because with the mumus who his father savagely ruled over... nothing go happen.

26. Gumsu even called Soyinka who was a victim of her beloved dad's misrule, "Mad empty Professor" ... because in mumudom, "nothing go happen".

27. Final scores... Jang 13, Amaechi 19, but in the land of mumus Mathematics has a different interpretation for 13 is greater than 19. Even the President of the mumus ratifies that.

28. By the way, both Governors Jang and Amaechi are from the same imploding political party.

29. Jang says he is old enough to be Amaechi's father... a common escape route that is often quickly bought by the mumu populace. Old enough to be the President's pawn and to upturn justice might be more like it. Only possible when you know for sure that your people are mumus... Nothing go happen.

30. The Governor is supposed to be the chief security officer of his State, but apparently in mumudom, his Police Commissioner is his boss. 

31. The Governor's security staff could be so easily withdrawn because nothing is institutionalized in a Nation of mumus. The loyalty of the security personnel is not based on the constitution but on personal or maternal affiliations. The mumus keep watching because "it does not concern me o"... "Big men and women are fighting". Same way the injustice of the Nation's attorney general's assassination does not concern them.

32. Most reports in the Nigerian media kept referring to the self appointed Speaker as if he were truly the substantive Speaker. A mere use of "self-acclaimed" would have been logical, but they were already calling him the Speaker because... ignorance? inducement? resignation to the belief that the 5 vs 26 Assembly coup was already a done deal?

33. While all this drama unfolded, Nigeria, like the proverbial head-burying ostrich felt it had the moral right to insist on democratic processes in Egypt.

34. Sahara Reporters had screamed about the underhand conspiracy to proclaim Mustapha "not guilty". Mumus simply went about their daily mumurity unperturbed because "it doesn't concern them". And when it happened as predicted... no problem. Mumus continue dem jolly as if nothing happened.

35. Meanwhile, Daniel and his political supporters carried their politics into the house of God at Rueben Abati's mother's funeral service... simply because there is no true reverence for God. Religion is a safe hiding cave. The mumus in the congregation would never protest such sacrilege because... "it is not strange" as the houses of God are now also political grounds. Obasanjo built one in Abeokuta. Jonathan got one built in Otuoke.

36. Meanwhile, some other mumus were again busy putting the Nation to international shame. In unprecedented match fixing fiascos, Police Machine beat Bubayaro 67-0 while Plateau United Feeders beat Akurba FC 79-0. Just in case you are confused, the game was soccer, not basketball.

37. The matches were to determine which one of the two tied teams would be promoted into... wait for this... just the 3rd division of the Nigerian soccer league. How many goals would they have to orchestrate when they want promotion to the 1st division?

38. Interesting to note that one of the teams involved in these shows of shame, the Police Machine, represents the Police Force. Now who would investigate this scandal?

39. Mumus involved in the conspiracy had to include players... team management... referees and other match officials... spectators That is quite a large mumu cooperative.

40. Since four teams were involved, multiply the number of conspirators by 4 (except match officials and spectators which should be multiplied by "only" 2). Hence, the scam was done in the open. It was a confident public show of shame. No... two confident simultaneous scams. No problem as corruption is everywhere.

41. Before the matches, Police Machine and Plateau United were level on points, goal difference and goals scored, and each was playing its final match which would determine which team would get elevated into the 3rd division league. Plateau United scored 72 of its 79 goals in the second half, thereby averaging more than one goal per minute. This would necessarily include the time needed to celebrate each goal, retrieve the ball, bring it back to the center, wait for the referee's whistle before kicking off again.... after each goal. 72 times. Or did they just write the preferred figures as we typically do on election day?

42. Is it not curious that neither of the two losing teams could manage a single consolation goal? What else are we if not mumus?

43. Then there was the innocent man who was freed by the high court in Owerri after having been unjustly incarcerated for seven years, "awaiting trial". No compensation... nobody held accountable for his ordeal. He insisted on being taken back to the prison as that was his only guaranty of a roof over his head and a daily meal. It was merely a "small thing" in the daily bizarre news as mumus went about their daily mumurity with their typical mentality of "e no concern me".

44. Remember that this is mostly a snippet of the past two weeks or so. But there is more... 20 year old Chijioke Nwankor allegedly rapes a 9 year old pupil to death in Calabar. Reportedly in his own words, he asked her to bend down in the uncompleted building because it was too dirty to lie down as the place was being used as a public toilet. That is mumudom parlance for faeces shamelessly defecated all over the ground. Could the defecation be by aliens from outer space?

45. Well... thankfully, there is always a little ray of sunlight sneaking through the dark jungle. A Briton who was kidnapped by an armed gang shortly after arrival in Lagos, has been released.

...All in just the past two weeks or so in mumudom.

Excuse me, I have to return to work. I need to earn £3000 for my British visa. Wait a minute, did I tell you I am still a Commonwealth citizen?

you are even a bigger MUMU........... all these because Jonathan is the president, wait until Tinubu becomes the president

Wole Soyinka was right: the man dies in those that keep silent in the face of tyrany. Bisade Ologunde (Lagbaja), you have spoken well.
Where are other artiste, I mean the same that were on display during the fuel subsidy protest in Lagos in Januruary 2012? They should speak.

And no further evidence is truly needed, someone thinks The Masked One's post is scathing cos he's not made as much money as Wizz........ if Mumuism ever plunges t o greater depths, I'd be hard done. Yet a few others think bashing each other's ethnic background makes them more advanced 'mumus' ..... Lagbaja was detribalized and without any political leaning in his post, yet jumping in to 'sell market' for the looters and present occupiers of power positions was irresistible for some of us. Your children's children will query your greed, you all know yourselves. Nigeria will change for the better in my time God willing and He is.

Nobody is mumu in Nigeria pls mind your words   lagbaja nd co
