S. A. Abakwue
Allah, the Creator of the Universe, saw it fit to restore the glory of the African past. To this end, He sent the Spirit of King Sundiata Keita, as His Holy Messenger, to announce the great news, to the African people. He chose the Sahara Priests as the first set of people who would receive the message. The Sahara Priests took the good news to the President of Mali. Also, the Priests foretold to him that some wolves that looted Africa, in the time past, would be drawn anew by the benevolent restoration. They emphasized the need for unity as the only way to beat back the thieving wolves. A few days later, an Allah’s angel opened up a river of oil from beneath the soil. It happened in a small village, near the nation of Mali’s border with the Republic of Niger. The news about the river of oil speedily captured the insatiable greed of the European nation that once colonized Mali. With the star of greed shining so bright in his mind, the great colonizer began to scheme on how to re-take his former African colony. Indeed, the powerful Leader of Paris knew that he could achieve his dream, of neo-French greatness, by convincing his co-powerful allies, to join him in his new military adventure in the African nation. So, he cooked up some very credible plates of delicious lies. He invited the leaders of his co-allies over to the City of Paris. When they came, he served them the incredible plates of sweet lies. In addition, he carefully convinced some gullible African leaders that ’Islamists’ terrorists are plotting to take away our democracy’ from the nation of Mali. But, the wise Leader of Germany saw through the lies and she refused to buy into it. The leaders of Britain, Belgium and the United States of America easily and quickly swallowed up all the contents of the delicious plates of sweet lies.They began to bomb the Malian villages with highly sophisticated drones. And from the Malian border with Niger Republic, the elite French troops moved in and took over all the villages, including the village where the river of oil was discovered. They cooked up more brilliant lies and fed them to the gullible world. As they slaughtered the African villagers, who had no means of defending themselves, they told the world, through their mass media, that they were only re-planting the seeds of democracy, earlier removed by the primitive terrorists. 3
