This is Ridiculous!

Since Chinedu Ikedieze (Aki) won the national award, questions have been asked as to why his movie twin, Osita Iheme (Pawpaw) was ignored. Recently, I read a most laughable reason an anonymous woman gave.

Haba! Which kin ridiculous story be dat? Granted that the incident could have truly happened, what makes ‘Madam Anonymous’ think that’s the reason the Pawpaw was not honoured? Abegiii!
