Now my official tribute to Nelson Rolihlaha Mandela RIP Nelson Mandela. The greatest man of our time. I Thief (Chief) Mrs. Engr. Insp. Sup. Barr. Dr. Apostle. Pastor. Evang. Imam. Oloye. Olu-Awo. Prof. Emeritus. Okiki_Oluwa hereby commiserate with the family of Mandela Nelson Madiba. He is the giratest hiro of awa taim. He yas tosh meni laifs posithiefly. He is a sefless faita who fort for the pipu of Saut-Afrika. No amaunt of alcohol can intoxicate me to spit out how taching & emoshional ayam today. I v bin craying since I land about the deth of awa greatest hiro of modan day. I re-meba he was a grate actoress, mushichian & a footbolar cos he supported sport & the entatament industry. One thing ayaf land from Madiba's laif is that we should learn to live awa laifs for others. That's why he spent 27 years gbáko inside túbú (cell). I know God compensated him by enlogating his laif. It's just a girate piti that Mandela iyaf dead. He has gone too soon. Last Bullet: All that I v written came from the pot of my heart. I m not drunk! I m happy that Mandela is dead & has gone to rest. RIP Nelson Rolihlaha Mandela. Your manhood ll continue to live forever just like Odumegwu Ojukwu's manhood to Dame Patience Jonathan. Gone too soon 9 Likes |
