The Mungu Representing the Maagas....

You wonder why our lawmakers have been performing below expectation? It is just the case of mugun and magaas who do not know what to expect from each other. They result to taking the Maagas (Electorates) for a ride. Hence, it becomes a jolly ride for him over the ignorance of the maagas. The Mungu is always a political opportunist who often hide behind the his excellency to contest he comes to re-echo the song his sponsors promising good roads, free education, free pipe borne water and whatever the Governor or president says. Though, he might be ignorance of what a bill is or who a lawmaker is? He wouldn't want to annoy the Maagas either because anything bill remind them of NEPA or PHCN who bill them for the service never rendered. Telling them that he will make law to the maaga's advantage is a waste of time because they are confuse with the concept of law making and law enforcement.

When the Mungu eventually win the election he either becomes an area father sponsoring street jamz and carnival or become a busy honourable who doesn't have the time for the maaga's excesses as a beggar but he would have noted that he wouldn't be returning as mugun's representative. Coming to the house where the maagas expected the mungu to make laws to their own advantage. The mungu who know fully well that the maagas are not really sure of what he should do on their behalf in the house then decides to do what he likes. He may choose sleeping in the house as a hobby  then get fatter day after day and indication that all is going well for him. He may choose to be "sit down look" I concur mugun with this action he might not return as the maagaa's representative only if he knows his way.

When the mugun goes to the house and cause trouble the maagas like him for that because that is their expectation about been in the house. Irrespective of whether his stand to issue is relevant or not as long he is cause trouble in there the maaga feel adequately represented. In case he is a trouble shooter who is so fluent in our lingua franca then he will have problem with the maagas. They will come with this notion that" naa English he sabi speak" Our Man Hon.Patrick Obahiagbon, is a critical sample.

The muguns are never in touch with the maagas on the sensitive issues most especially the on issues that bother on the maaga's welfare and well being that is why budget padding is crucial for mungus co-existence.

In case the maagas challenge them to it at that moment they will recall and understand their primary duty of lawmaking.
