Cheap cheese
A family member was surprised to see cheese being served on the breakfast table. He took a bite of his sandwich and enquired who bought the cheese. His brother replied: “I bought it for only K10 from a street seller at Gerehu.” He hopes it is not part of the loot from shops last week.
Usual excuse
The excuse cabinet ministers usually give when relegated or sidelined in a reshuffle is “it’s the prime minister’s prerogative”. True, but ouch nevertheless!
Too comfortable
Makes sense the move by PM Marape, as it is good for transparency and accountability to rotate ministers every now and then so that they do not get too comfortable in one ministerial portfolio.
Minute details
Of course, PM Marape’s cabinet reshuffle is now being carefully analysed and broken down to the finest details by his critics, to find out why he was forced to make one now.
Dereliction of duty
MPs who fail to attend their respective provincial assembly meetings are basically betraying the trust of their voters, and should face the appropriate punishment.
Robot joke
Funny that computers are now asking us, human beings, to prove that we are not robots. What a joke indeed!
No Google
Surely something to think about.
King not spared
Even King Charles III is not spared when it comes to a cancer most common in men today – of the prostrate. He will next week be undergoing surgery in hospital for it.
Food for thought
“You may not always see the results of your kindness. But every bit of positive energy you contribute to the world makes it a better place for all of us.”
Top quote
“I call ministers at midnight, 1am, 2am to discuss work. So be prepared because the work is about to start.” – Prime Minister James Marape warning six new cabinet ministers of the tough road ahead.
