Africa-Press – Lesotho. <\/strong><\/span>UNTIL now, Muckraker has never paid much attention to the meetings at the National Reforms Authority (NRA). After all, it\u2019s just a bunch of politicians pretending to be cleaning the mess they created with their greed, ambitiousness and tomfoolery.
\nThere is no sweeter deal like being paid to clean up your poop. But this week Muckraker kicked herself for bunking those meetings. Reports say that some politicians almost knocked out each other\u2019s teeth during a heated debate.
\nWhat angered the politicians to the point of attempting to bludgeon each other is not important. You can be sure it was a non-issue that only escalated because our politicians like to measure their molamu in public.
\nThe \u2018yours-is- bigger-than-mine\u2019 kind of thing. Anyway, here is the short version of what happened. At some point during the debate, Jeremane Ramathebane of the Basotho Batho Democratic Party (BBDP) felt Mohau Thakaso of the White Horse Party was swinging on his beard.
\nIrritated, Ramathebane then started bellowing insults as he charged towards Thakaso. He had his fists clenched and ready to rearrange Thakaso\u2019s yellowbone face. Some say he wanted to strangle Thakaso with his beard.
\nBut as he was about to grab Thakaso\u2019s ears, Ramathebane was restrained by Paul Masiu, the leader of the Christian Party of Lesotho (CPL), and some NRA employees.<\/p>\n

And just like that the Letofe of fights had been stopped, robbing the country of the much-needed entertainment. Muckraker will never forgive Masiu for his exuberance.
\nHe had no business interfering with our pleasure. May his continue to be a little party whose members cannot fill a wheelbarrow. May he receive only two votes in the next election.
\nHe must repent like Saul so that he becomes the real Paul. As for the NRA staffers who helped Masiu stop the boxing match, Muckraker is warning them to mind their own hopose.
\nThey must remember they were not hired to be security guards. They must be disciplined for neglecting their core duties to stop that fight. You cannot apply for a job that requires a degree and then spend your time stopping fights.<\/p>\n

Reports say Thakaso only started shouting when Ramathebane was restrained by the excitable Masiu and the over-enthusiastic NRA staffers. Only when Ramathebane was back on his seat did Thakaso start threatening to hoof him.
\nMuckraker chuckled when she heard that he said he will not be intimidated by Ramathebane. Really? If he was brave he should have left his chair and met Ramathebane halfway.
\nThat is what the unintimidated do. He should have jumped to rearrange Ramathebane\u2019s face which surely needs some landscaping. You see, Ramathebane thinks his beard is the source of his strength.
\nA Samson of sorts. Someone lied to him that his beard is some special mohair. Thakaso should have grabbed that bush and used it to swing Ramathebane across the room.<\/p>\n

And it will not be a crime here or in heaven. In Proverbs, King Solomon says: \u201cWhen some fool starts an argument, he is asking for a beating\u201d. Muckraker is sick and tired of warning people against stopping fistfights between politicians.
\nHenceforth she will be attending the NRA sessions. Not to contribute to the charade but to beat those who interfere with boxing matches between politicians.
\nThis peace-making nonsense stops now. Basotho deserve some entertainment. Likuena are playing tosh. Lesotho TV is like a potent sleeping pill. Radio stations are full of drivel and politicians masquerading as journalists.
\nThe bars are playing Osama and Mojolo the whole night. Roof of Africa is a hyped-up damp squib. What\u2019s funny about makhooa playing in the mud with their expensive motorbikes in a country where the average person cannot afford a bicycle?
\nThe Feselady is a joke that has long ceased to be funny. Some fistfights in the NRA will save this country from boredom. Otherwise, it will be hanky-panky all the way to next year.<\/p>\n
