Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon & Fuel Subsidy Removal

I took a look at one of the honourable gentleman's speeches and decided to even try to translate. Haba ! Translate english to english ? Anyway, na so the grammer big reach. In the past i would have ignored, but this time around i wanted to even know the content and if there could have been an easier way of putting it(Because of people like me who no too sabi oyinbo). So www.dictionary.com, here i come. I tried to put in alternatives beside each gigantic word.

Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon

His Comments
"I have read with acatalectic [complete] disgust, governments asinine [foolish] and puerile [childish] ratiocinations [reasoning] attempting to justiceate [Justify] the proposed removal of subsidies from petroleum products.


It has asseverated [maintained] that it’s intentions is guided by the need to checkmate the odoriferous [fragrant] excesses of a machiavellian [dishonest] and mephistophelean [devilish] cabal and i have said to myself,what a shame! What a self indicting admittal of the failure of governance! What an hocus-pocus! What an anathematous [hateful] disdain for it’s citizenry!

Must the people now bear the brunt for governments ineptitude,inefficiency and pusillanimity [cowardise] in squaring up with these economic philistines and fat cows?
I feel even more nauseated and vexed that the Governors Forum has posthaste [quickly] conferred an apocalyptic [prophetic] imprimatur [approval] on this genie.
Let’s not forget that majority of these same Governors had earlier called for this state of affairs as a condition sine qua non [indespensable] for paying the minimum wage. What an opprobrium [disgrace]! What a deprecable [Disappointing] descent from the sublime to the ridiculous!
It’s up to us all to put this Presidential and Gubernatorial genie back into the bottle but are we prepared?"
