'Anguka Nayo' produces massive earthquake as a scribe nabbed at station

I wanted to write about the hit-song, Anguka Nayo, whose reverberations echoed across the world, producing an earthquake in its wake, but another quake was reported when Musalia Mudavadi aka MaDvD was appointed Chief Cabinet Secretary.

That's to say the much-desired austerity measures are firmly in place: Instead of the 22 Cabinet members who were sent home a week ago, we shall now have one Cabinet Secretary by the name MaDvD. That's quite some saving, I wanted to celebrate, not just in monetary terms, but also because the appointment would whittle down the din generated by Gen-Z protesters.
