Na Grammar We Go Chop? Nigerian Senators’ Big Condolences

Amidst the ‘silent night’ the people of Ghana are going through since the news of the passing away of President of Ghana, John Atta Mills, one man has chosen to use an Oxford dictionary in passing his condolence message across, he is Nigerian Senator Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon.

His facebook profile has simply described him as ‘a verbal contortionist and bombastic patriot’, whatever that means, I don’t know.

The Nigerian Senator meant no harm when he decided to add his name to the list of sympathizers to the late President, but little did he know that his message will rather cause harm than good. For the benefit of a smooth reading, here is what the Senator sent:

‘President Professor John Evans Atta Mills’ passing on is a mere ephemeral recumbent hibernation; an empyrean paradisiac rendezvous lies ahead. Heaven is the terminus. The ecclesiastic, executive and legislature and all Ghanaians at large have lost a solitaire. Any veritable verification of the verity of President Professor John Evans Atta Mills' demise? I am in a state of metagrabolised melancholia’.

I couldn’t help laughing alone so I decided to get you on board to lighten up the mood.**
