I like Davido.
Not because of his father’s 30 billion. And not because he appointed an Igbo girl his girl friend. She got it on merit. Chioma didnt disappoint like Amaka and Yetunde and that Momodu and others. I like him because he appears lost but has his feet on the ground.
He makes money, he shares with my sister. Others would have left her flying UBER. Bags and tight jeans are never enough. He gave her an assurance. Look the choice of a beautiful chef for a moneyed young man is smart. Food will slow down appetite for alcohol and drugs.
He knew education was invaluable. He knew he may need a degree in future. So he went to Babcock and stayed . He could have strayed.
He left Babcock with his degree in his back pocket. And continued his thing. Then he watched Adeosun come under enemy fire. He knew he may need the NYSC certificate after all. He didnt go oluwole. He picked up his call up letter. And jumped into camp with pomp and ceremony. Evidence of attendance secured, he went back to his globe trotting beat.
I know what you are thinking.
Yes….” If this is how NYSC is done then no one would need a fake exemption certificate!”
I know . But you know the NYSC is not compelled by law to send him to a school or a farm. They could have quietly assigned him to the post of a youth ambassador at large. Shake your head if you like. He will get an authentic discharge certificate despite your misgivings.
The boy is heading to Osun to campaign for his uncle. He has his head on his shoulders. Forget all the tattoos and the wine cup perpetually in his hand. He knows his way home.
