The Baccoo speaks

Dec 06, 2009 Features / Columnists, The Baccoo Speaks

There is a frequency to road accidents and this is so because the weak among us are the only ones being influenced by the aura that hovers around the country.
In some circles, people believe that there must be a certain number of deaths in a given area each year. They feel that this is ordained.
The result is the weak are invaded and they go about executing the task of the unbidden one by being reckless and by breaching every regulation put in place to avoid the carnage.
A look at the early part of the year would reveal that there is scarcely any road accident. Anyhow, there will be some more before the year is over, especially at nights when people are at their most careless.
**
There is going to be an increase in gun incidents because desperate people are being thwarted from executing those things that were once easy. Coupled with this is the fact that less and less paper money is being moved around.
The focus would be on the homes of the perceived affluent and the effect would be terrifying. The police would be pressed to respond to two in one night this week.
**
Christmas would be a most unfortunate affair for a household that is stealing electricity. An exposed wire would be the cause of death in the area.
In another case, the same electricity theft would lead to a fire.
