If my father has stolen, I will...

** Attend the very best school in the world and walk shoulder high (Educational Investment)
** Organize charity fund just like the 'better life For Rural Women' and government officials will contribute more (...talk about the rich getting richer)
** Own properties in choice countries/ locations and drive 'tear rubber' vehicles (property Investment)
** Be the toast of the town where musician will sing praise me (Social well being)
** Owning a jet or airplane wouldn't be an issue (Ease of transportation)
** Streets/avenues will be named after me (grass root investment)
** Arrange prayers for my father in churches and mosques to ward off evil spirit and untimely death (Spiritual upliftment)
** Advice my father to marry more wives and take more chieftaincy tittles across the board (evenly distribution of wealth)
** Donate 'chairs' to tertiary institutions for under privilege children
** Have shares in blue chips companies
** Wouldn't have to struggle in life

But my father didn't have the opportunity to steal otherwise I wouldn't be in diaspora searching for the proverbial green pastures.
