Ban of ogogoro

I laughed when l read that the Federal Government had banned the consumption of local brew gin alias ogogoro nationwide. This is a ban that is dead on arrival and smacks of hypocrisy. If not for ogogoro, how can most of the present occupiers of political offices be where they are today? Ogogoro is the side kick for street orchins and political thugs to get high to carry out their assigned murderous activities to have their way. And now the same beneficiaries of the efficacy of ogogoro during campaigns have risen against it due to reported incidents of death allegedly caused by the local gin in Ondo and Rivers states. Do not sell a dummy to us, you are deceitful.

Would you go ahead with that wedding if you know you'd die if you cheated?

Let me phrase this question in a simple manner. So, you're dating someone, you get engaged, start planning a wedding and they tell you that before your traditional/white wedding - you and your spouse will be taken to a shrine where you will swear an oat before the gods that you will die just a day after you cheat on your spouse. There's no going back; you cheat and you die the next day. How many of you will still go ahead with the wedding? Think very seriously before you answer...lol (especially the men)
