Popular comedian Basketmouth knighted by the office of the Queen.

By -
When news broke earlier today that Nigerian
comedian, Basketmouth has been knighted by
the Queen of England for his services to
comedy and entertainment, not a few
Nigerians disbelieved the report.
So we at the Thenetng contacted the official
residence of the Queen, Buckingham Palace,
for confirmation and we got a speedy
response from them.
In a press statement obtained exclusively by
us, a spokesperson for the Queen confirmed
that Basketmouth received the knighthood in a
secret ceremony held last night.
The ceremony held at the Buckingham Palace,
where the Queen is recovering from a bout of
flu and was witnessed by only palace guards
and the Queen’s corgis.
As to why the ceremony was held secretly and
why Basketmouth’s name was missing from
the usual Queen’s New Year’s Eve honours
list, the unnamed spokesperson said
Basketmouth was such a special candidate for
the honour and a personal favourite of the
Queen and her son, Prince Charles .
Basketmouth getting knighted
‘Usually, being made a Knight of the British
Empire is the exclusive preserve of British
citizens but the Queen decided to give him a
historic waiver to grant him this honour.
‘This is the first time in the history of the Empire
this has been done and is further testament to
amazing dexterity, Basketmouth has displayed
with comedy and entertainment.’
Prince Charles in particular has watched DVDs
of every Basketmouth standup performance,
even the ones that are only available on
pirated discs.
The palace however refused to comment on
speculation that the knighthood given
Basketmouth grants him the powers to call for
the arrest and repatriation of those he has
publicly feuded with in the past such as OAP
Freeze and singer Sean Tizzle

A meeting between the Nigerian government and university lecturers has ended without a resolution of the nationwide strike called by the union on Monday. The Academic Staff Union of Universities, ASUU, began a nationwide strike this week, over demands for improved funding of universities and welfare of lecturers. An earlier meeting with the government was also unsuccessful. Thursday’s meeting began at exactly 3:42 p.m. in Abuja. In his opening remark, the Minister of Labour, Chris Ngige, said ASUU did not follow the proper procedure before starting the strike. “There must be a mandatory letter of 15 days to labour, to education before going on strike,” he said, referring to the ministries of labour and education. “All agreements are supposed to be domiciled in ministry of labour in order to track implementation as agreement gives room to renegotiation,” Mr. Ngige. In his response, the president of ASUU, Biodun Ogunyemi, said Mr. Ngige had taken side wi...
