Dear Professor Falola,
Many thanks for your Christ-like concern Sir !
Here is the evidence that you have been waiting for, that your Cornelius is alive, although he hates this time of the season in Sweden, hates the weather and hates the climate (Very much. Much hate). At this time of the year our love affair with November to March, day to day it's a standard comment you hear from from fellow African sojourners in Sweden, some bonding and some sharing of a common experience , if not a common destiny, an agreement, a general consensus arrived at : "This place was not made for human beings"
But most of all at this particular time , hates the mad-rush shopping for Christmas presents and New Year fireworks going into billions of dollars worth which for a consumer population of a mere ten million, at least from the point of view of the Nigerian commitment to the be fruitful and multiply policy, a negative birth rate, nevertheless spending so astronomically on Christmas goodies..
We are based at our various local climate places and alas Cyberspace has no particular climate, it's place where we create our´own particular climate...
Sir, I arrived at the sound conclusion that I would take off to Jerusalem if not bodily, then at least mentally and spiritually via London and Casablanca, and that I should hope to be back to the forum sometime after your blessed birthday on 1st January and to wish you a Merry Xmas and a Happy New Year in advance. I arrived at this sound conclusion after I saw that at the rate I was going I was close to having posted most items to the forum. And that I had better absent myself for a while, although I read all the postings on the net and forwarded Professor Kperogi's diatribe about Brothers Buhari and Atiku to Ogbeni Kadiri since it undercuts Ogbeni Kadiri's thesis that Professor Kperogi is being financially rewarded by the TRUST newspaper which backs Atiku. My exact question to Ogbeni Kadiri was : "So the Professor of Buckingham Palace English is not on Atiku's payroll after all, or is he biting the hand that feeds him?" Who knows, maybe, Ogbeni Kadiri will take the bull by the horns, once more and this time, even more ferociously? ?
Well, it's said that " A thief , while breaking into a home in order to steal, calls upon God to help him" (Rabbi Shneur Zalman of Liadi
I should like to say about Atiku that in this case he is one of the few :
"There are many who despise wealth , but few who are willing to part with it "

We have not heard from him for some time.
We need someone to check on him. His silence is unusual
