Given the recent developments in the Sherry-Royal case, there has been an increasing number of colleagues and friends, and even non-chatwas, who have started digging deep in their ancestry's history and family tree to find out if there is any royal lineage . As up to late, some five to six of them have been able to firmly establish some linkages to their royal ancestors. Some further probe and investigations are going on before these are made public. The sixth claimant has preferred to drop his claim as his ancestor King was guillotined by his subjects for treason and his calamitous reign.
These five claimants to royal ancestry seem to be more convincing and defendable :
One is related to King Mansa Musa I, the ruler of the Mali Empire in West Africa from 1312 to 1337 CE.
Our next fellow, of Malagasy origin, has the King Andrianampoinimerina ( 1787–1810) of Madagacar as ancestor.
Believe it or not, (we are awaiting the DNA tests), two of them have claimed to have found some roots with Cnut the Great, England’s Viking King(1013-1042) and Harald Hardrada: the Last Great Viking Leader(1030-1064).
The last one, a close competitor to our dear Sherry, contends that his forefathers are of Punjab descent related to the Sikh Maharaja Ranjit Singh, ( 1780-1839). He is also asserting that Sherry’s Chakravarti Maharajah Vikramaditya is a mere minion-a bihari chihuahua -compared to his ancestral King, also known as the Lion of Punjab.
Their lawyers are building up a solid case for entitlement to
a) an appointment as CEO of one of the top state-owned enterprises with a minimum monthly salary of Rs 1 million including a special clause in the contract that he/she will make himself/herself available to provide better advice than what has been provided so far to the PMO,landing us with the Wakashio oil-spill, the Safe city, the EU’s blacklist, a financial time-bomb, the explosion of synthetic drugs killing our youth, a mafia that has infiltrated our institutions, a consolidated budget deficit of -15.7% of GDP and Public Sector Debt to GDP that has already crossed the 100% mark.....and not to forget the continuous reviews of MK's economic model- the latest being carried out by our royal jet set Sherry- which resulted in its grounding.
b) a loan of Rs 30 million to purchase a large enough piece of land to build a large enough mansion to be the abode of royal personalities. Some 12 millions will be chipped in from the “cuivre business" or any other such activities as the Hauwei-Safe city project and….(to be filled in as the opportunities arise) and
c) a 24 hrs special pass for access to La Kwizinn
• Justification and Qualifications: All the five claimants have more than 20 years of experience (with evidence) selling dholpuris, macatias, lottery tickets, insurance policies, "merveille" and ice-creams.
For such entitlements, pliability and loyalty are preferred to honesty or competence. ; our claimants are thus suitable candidates , aware that the non-royal characters are likely to brand them as “Chatwas".
