With nursery school children languishing in the forest, tortured by bandits who snatched them from school, President Tinubu ought to be sleepless . Or at least speechless.
But no. Tinubu is a god. He is a living encyclopedia of strategies. Beyond reproach and accountability. He removed fuel subsidies. So he rescued the country from the valley of the shadows of poverty. Because all the governors in the country have now congregated in his party, Nigeria is more united than ever. So even if every child in this country is abducted by bandits, Tinubu must still ramble and tell tales on Children’s Day. He is a great orator, after all.
Critics say the people have become so accustomed to egregious evil that nothing provokes outrage anymore. We take the torture of nursery school pupils — who witnessed their teacher being beheaded — all in our stride. Perhaps we have learnt our lessons. We did “Bring Back Our Girls,” got some back girls and lost many more. We have learnt not to harbour silly hopes or demarket our country in vain. We have also learnt since nearly all our leaders are cut from the same cloth , we must only pray for our leaders rather than make them objects of international ridicule. So that they can continue to occasionally throw us rice and cash handouts to alleviate our poverty.
