AN ANGEL IS GONE

ADIEU ANGELOU; THE ACTION ANGEL!

Those who pour out their inner best in order to better the rest of humanity, gracefully fade behind the beautiful curtain of their eternal works.

I am not here talking about ‘Stars’; I am talking about those who make Stars out of mortals! Men like Shakespeare and women like Maya belong to such scripted spirits! Self made souls who rose far beyond their skies.

For these iconic giants, Death can only defile their fickle frames, not dismiss their solid souls. Their forceful flame is not for fading!

So sleep on, dear Maya. You breathed your life into your timeless message; Death came too late to extinguish the essence of your fiery self!

Lost you have, Late Death, for our quick-witted and fast-handed lady hath done her best long before you could catch her with your worst! (Written 29th May 2014 at 12:15)

“TO BE OR NOT TO BE”?

“TO BE OR NOT TO BE?” THE ALIE KABBA QUESTION!

The papaya politics of our corruption-riddled country has locked so many people, so tightly, into the pessimistic brace of grinding hopelessness and gutless helplessness that it would take some serious yanking effort to pull us back unto the graceful path of self-belief and national empowerment.

Progressive development requires an uncompromising break-out from the thickening shackles of retrogressive hold-backs.A collective giant step-forward, away from our restrictively defined boundaries, is feverishly hungered for!

This hopeful hatching-effort needs a quality of leadership that is deeply inspirational and hugely transformational! A model mold-breaker!

It is abundantly clear that our usual political masqueraders can only massage the problems, not provide the mentor-ship. It is not so much a question of Skills as that of Wills to wheel the nation!

If we have to be honest with ourselves, there are few contenders currently crawling on our political canvass that could make so bold as to lay any claims to coming anywhere close to realizing our lofty ideals!

That we NEED such a bold brilliant leadership to spell the agenda and set out the tone for a return to national sanity is not in question. Never has been! Our ongoing malady adequately underlines such an undeniable necessity!

We need men with the moral mettle to do in private what they say in public; principled men with the guts and grit to pursue the goals of the people, in place of their own selfish desires!

This is the reason why I believe a name like Alie Kabba has started to ignite some serious debates in many serious circles.

But as this debates continue to rage, my questions are: is Alie even interested in getting into the fray? If so, what PARTY would he be going with? Or is he contemplating something DIFFERENT?

Obviously, only Alie Kabba can definitively answer these questions! But what is certain is that his name has started to strike a welcomed note in a very noisy choir! (27th May 2014@19:37)
