In a national broadcast by a president, none of the indigenous media house was allowed to participate in the transmission of the so called live broadcast. AIT, channels TV, TVC news and others where shut out. Why? The answer is simple, Buhari is not in aso rock.
Picture one has rubbished Femi Adesina and Garba Shehu. Where the so called Buhari was standing is not aso rock. And a closer look at the picture, one will acknowledge the fact that the entire make up of where the so called Buhari was standing is in sharp contrast with how the presidential villa looks. Similarly, there was another visible blunder which shows a security personnel who in a way was monitoring their abracadabra. Some people will also say, he is an aso rock security personnel but let me ask, if a security personnel could be allowed to stand and watch from such distance, what stops them from allowing media houses into the state house? Only an ancient, compromised and quack NTA was allowed to televise his prerecorded hogwash. Others where sheepishly ordered to hook up from NTA. If there is no skeleton in their closet, why will they shut out other media organizations? The shame of a nation
Picture two is Buhari in aso. In his official office in the state house, there are four flags and the entire make up of the office is authentic. The Nigeria coat of arm behind him is another testament too when compared with the one in picture one. Or will APC media vuvuzelas also lie to us that the interior of the state house is been changed every week or month! Sometimes the people playing this game think they are smart. Their sense is very small like the almajiris littered in the whole of the North.
However, the entire broadcast was a trash. Why do I call it a trash? This is because, he the president never mentioned any palliative measures which will invariably cushion the effects of the lock down. He has ordered for the lockdown of the entire country but how will the poor masses survive? Almost 70% of Nigeria’s population are hustlers and if they don’t go out in a day there won’t be food on their table and how will these millions of Nigerians survive? This APC government is a cancer.
Other countries of the world have fashioned monetary incentives for their citizens but here nothing is on the ground. The wickedness of the black man.
Coronavirus will end up not killing Nigerians but hunger will do that. And if the big and foul mouthed rulers in aso rock doesn’t apply their number six, coronavirus will end up igniting the long overdue revolution in the country. This is not a hypothetical statement but an empirical fact on the ground
Since Friday last week, the prices of goods in the market have skyrocketed to high heavens. Millions are crying and sleeping without food and one clueless leader somewhere will turn around and ask them to be patriotic.
Let patriotism kill you there………. Mumu!
