THE SALT TRAP.
An experience I learnt on Discovery.
A practice common with Bushmen in times of drought and in great desperation for water is d SALT TRAP. They dig a hole, put a lump of salt, apparently Baboons love salt. A Baboon would instinctively locate d awoof, dips hand, 1/5
..in hole, grabs some salt, hand now holding to salt is in Fist Form and unable to escape the tight hole, he's trapped unless he frees his hand of its content..But the Baboon never wants to let go, he didn't know better, that his freedom lies in Letting Go. The bushmen would 2
..seize him, feed him with more than sufficient salt, Salt dehydrates and when released, the next place he goes is to fetch water and the Bushmen just follow. As it was with the Baboons, worse so with Obidients, they get trapped by their folly, but the day they identify with 3
..their ignorance comes Freedom. Asiwaju's Symbol is Broken Shackles, we know how much you love Beer, Fufu and Kerosene and consider them Landmark Achievements, we say release d salt and break d shackles. Your principal who is always in Black, a colour associated with darkness 4
..and mourning, we haven't alleged it symbolizes occultism and that could well be d case but we choose to focus on the issues. We understand that in the absence of track records, Obi must embrace smear campaign and its mostly expected from a jaundiced camp led by 23 year olds. 5
Free your mind, there is no greater bondage than the one Anambrans experienced with Obi as Gov, we merely offer freedom, do not fall in Love with your Jailer. I'm sure you saw #TinubuInAkwaIbom
Today is #TinubuinAnambra the CityBoy touches the Village.

Good Morning BATists.
