    1. Keep going dear, as the tallest man of africa you also stand undisturbed on top of the kilimanjaro, and even see Europe and America, through special lens, like most white doctors all the time, not just sitting around diagnosing biological diseases, but also moral, social and political maladies. Thank you so much, Just keep going. Keep burning your candles; we see the light from afar, particularly your pungent satire about Nigeria.. Thanks.
