Letter From The President (XXXI): A happy "Adios" to Kofi Wayo

Countrymen and women, opponents and loyalists,
Whiles I was chilling out in the opulence of Geneva last week, pretending to be concerned about the inability of the people of Adiembra to browse the internet, I was informed about Kofi Wayo’s decision to quit my party. Obviously, Kofi Wayo is one of those who will choose to refer to the political association I belong to as the Non-Performers Party and has therefore decided to leave. Good for him. What took him so long? Perhaps, he was hoping that I could change my ways and adopt some of the doctrines he has been preaching with so much conviction and that annoying American accent of his.

By and large, I am happy that he has left but I have this little tinge of sadness in me about his departure. We will no longer benefit from the largesse he freely gave out in support of our electioneering campaign some three years ago. His money in fact, helped me to get onto the Black Star stool.
