When was the last time you saw Mathematical Segun Odegbami?
Yes, Big Seg! The same man who Commander Ebenezer Obey sang for. That wonderful football legend, who remains an issue in both football and current affairs
When last did you see him? Forget that you saw him on TV some days ago.
Even if you saw him, what is the latest news about him?
Tell me now! What?
You can see the above picture.
So I am telling you authoritatively that something has happened to him
Is it a goal?
Or is it not a goal?
Honestly, things are happening in Nigeria!
Mouth gaping matters and issues happening silently and quietly to many prominent Nigerians.
Some of them keeping it under the table; covering it up so that many people do not know!
For they don’t want public applause, ridicule or scathing remarks which may demoralise them or wound their ego.
But because of our onerous duty to serve humanity; and our mission is to uncover news that is being suppressed from the knowledge of the public; particularly those that concern distinguished Nigerians, we shall always be out to uncover it all!
It has happened again.
That the same Segun Odegbami, one of the best footballers ever produced in the world!
The man whose accomplishments in the field of sport are legendary is in one situation.
Something very strange has happened to him. You know that this man is not just a mere footballer.
He is not just one of the stars of yesterday.
He is an intellectual.
He is a journalist.
He is a broadcaster.
He is an informed analyst of both sport matters and current affairs.
He is a critic.
He is a superb commentator.
A brilliant writer.
A man who has maintained his presence in the media consciousness of the nation.
He has maintained an uncountable appearance on both TV and Radio programme.
He is the best sports commentator in Africa!
And see what has happened to this glorious son of Nigeria.
Read what has just befallen him.
Read the goal he has just scored.
Mathematical Segun Odegbami has just been allocated
a radio licence to float an FM station
Hallelujah!
It is a goal!!!
Or are you not happy that good thing has just happened to him?
For me I congratulate him!
I don’t know about you
