SNAPSONG 237
The Honorebu’s first question
Was preceded with a very Honorebu slap
So loud his neighbours thought
It was a thunderclap
“Who are you, wretched driver;
What madness drove you
To disturb my Honorebu leisure
In the middle of an empty day?
In my Honorably acquired mansion
Where, between booze and boast,
I churn out the bills which beget those laws
That have turned Nigeria into a Paradise”
The second slap came with an imperial swagger:
“How dare you! Do you know who I am?”
