Chidi,
"Tell fren true noh pwell fren "
Surely, this is below you!
A refined man like you wanna echo an amateur
or mature poe-it with his
"Popes fought for office
like the nastiest of mafia
bosses" ?
Don't you think or know that with these very impious and un-poetic words that you utter through your keyboard you are thereby dis-respecting the religious chief of most of the world's Igbos?
C'mon Brother I don't have to remind you that just a while ago nearly the whole of the former
Biafra was clapping hands as prayerful cheerleaders and people of hope
when advocating that Cardinal Francis Arinze should be elected Pope
Now, if it had been the Conclave's will that he be elected Bishop of Rome, is this what you would be saying about him too – that he had been elected to be head of the holy Mafia etc. etc. - and yet you want to go to heaven, without a pardon?

They were, and still are, Mafia bosses surround by all the
paraphernalia of Mafiadom. In the ages past, the instruments and
methods of enforcement were crude. Presently, they are refined.
CAO.
