Aristide Bancé, Burkina Faso’s centre forward was the b*tt of jokes in Nigeria not because he tormented Nigeria’s defence when both side clashed during the just concluded AFCON 2013 in South Africa but due to his looks. The FC Augsburg of Germany striker was often given uncomplimentary remarks by Nigerian fans but the dreadlocks wearing player has posted a picture of himself on Instagram purportedly targeted at his naysayers with the caption ‘Rich & Famous Forget About the Face People!’
Maybe his latest effort will get the ‘haters’ off his back or just fuel their disdain for him. Only time will tell.

Most of the African countries that receive foreign stars as ambassadors of a noble cause use them to raise money worldwide. Politicians in United States sought celebrities to boost their campaign funds. Not in Nigeria, politicians use workers’ salaries and funds that can be better used to relieve the pain and suffering of their people to pay foreign celebrities, failed and former politicians to grace local occasions even for a few minutes. 

It has never made sense that owner of ThisDay, Mr. Obaigbena, that could not pay the salaries of his workers, many times paid former presidents and celebrities just to peep at Beyonce’s boobs and grace various occasions in Lagos, Nigeria. Not to be outdone, Gov. Fashola also arranged for Ms. Kardashian to drop by and just say “Hey Naija”. Are these people star struck or suffering from some deep underlining complex?

Why spend five hundred million naira on a thanksgiving party? Why allocate 4 billion naira to a white elephant project in Abuja. Why lobby, and then accept the Permanent Secretary position in the Bayelsa State civil service when you knew you were not qualified for such an appointment? Why engage in a public quarrel with your predecessor over a public land deal in Abuja? Why lie to the nation about your medical condition and secret treatments overseas. Why the bombastic statements, and the supercilious attitude? What’s the immoderations that have come to define you?” The questions are almost endless. But this has been the ways of Patience Faka -- the wife of President Goodluck Jonathan.
