adminWith a leader like this, who needs enemies?
A story is told of a politician who was so out of his depth that at one rally he promised his party supporters that if elected into office, he would build a bridge to ease their transport woes.

Confused, he scanned the crowd in front of him and saw that the sinewy hand of one old timer was up, ‘‘But Mr MP,” the old-timer asked, ‘‘we do not have any river in this constituency, infact in the entire district!”
Without batting an eyelid, the resourceful politician quipped, ‘‘No problem, we will dig a river for you then build the bridge!”
