I am beginning to think South African's are not so creative? Had Madela been a Nigerian; 1. The corpse would have stay in the morgue for at least till Jan 2015 before next general elections to enable government prepare for a "befitting" burial.
2. Government would have set up National & Local burial planning committee with power to award contracts to construct new roads leading to Mandela's home town, construction of new airport, importation of bullet proof cars that will carry the corpse, construction of new stadium for burial reception, new presidential jet, etc.,
3. The national Assembly would have passed a new budget to accommodate burial expenses.
4. There would have been a national aso ebi (uniform) imported from Holland, which our political leaders will wear.
5.The governor of mandale's state of origin would have withheld local governments' allocations frm now till after burial to support the burial of 'Son of the soil' (mandela)
5. During the period of mourning, Governors, traditional rulers, students bodies will struggle to book for appointments to visit and pay condolence to Mr President.
6. New slangs would have emerged, for instance yoruba greetings, e ku tii Baba Madiba o, (happy celebration of our father's burial mood).
7. Our telecom service providers would have produced new caller tunes...."to hear Madela's last breath, press 1, to hear the last word he spoke, press 2,", etc.
8. New products will emerge, egg...Madiba zobo drink, Madiba pure water, Madiba magic soap/cream.
9. Our secular musicians??? Ahh!!! 5 albums daily in praise of the icon!
10. Many parents would have started Naming their new born babies after him such as ....Oluwa- mandela, Mandelagbemi, chuckumandela,mandeladike, Abdul madenla, yah-mandela. e.t.c
11.Hungry Cleyrgy would have started seeing vision of where Mandela soul is presently and they would released Audio CD, DVD,for people to buy TO EXTORT MONEY, MAKE NAME AND BE RELEVANT!!!
