Lagosians woke up on Thursday to a hectic situation as most part of the metropolis were on total lockdown.Thousands of residents of the state are currently bstranded and are made to trek several kilometres to various destinations as major roads in the metropolis have been locked down by stern-looking military men and other paramilitary personnel.

President Muhammadu Buhari is billed to visit Lagos on Thursday to commission some projects and also participate in the 66th birthday anniversary of national leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

Because,

If anything, Buhari knew 2 things as communicated in his May 29 inauguration speech...

1. Social Media if unchecked can topple a government

2. Lagos as an entity (and not an individual that lives on Bourdillon) can effectively oppose a seating government.

Ironically, his knowledge of these is through his party's use of these two

Not all the people in Lagos (or on social media) are 'slaves(cows)' sic

The same man who cancelled the metro-line in Lagos, is going to commission a BUS TERMINUS (glorified bus stop) in the same city, thirty-five years after.

The same country where the poor living on less than one dollar a day are in the majority, declares a public holiday for the same event.

The same man who campaigned on the back of anti-corruption, is going to kiss the ass of the Lagos landlord whose account is awash with illicit funds.
—————————-

The same people who are deriding those calling it a BUS STOP, still do not get the message, that it is not about the world class nature of the infrastructure, but the mediocrity of it all.

Afterall, the President went to witness a world class prisoner release in Kano.

Afterall, the President re-commissioned a world class bridge built by his predecessor in Plateau.

In a country lagging behind the rest of the world in electricity.

In a country importing petrol despite millions of barrels of crude under its soil.

In a country with millions of children out of school.

In a country where a third of the registered police work force are ghosts.

But will they get it?

I doubt.

If they cannot three years after, don’t hold your breath.

Once upon a time, there was a Nigerian leader whose convoy consisted of one car...carrying himself, his ADC and his driver. That made it easy for his killers to get to him.

Once upon a time, there was a leader of another African country who drove his car to work, and even used a bike sometimes. Sold off the cars in the presidential fleet even. Even said he trusted his comrade...a certain Blaise...with his life...Well, we know how Blaise betrayed him....

And there was a king of another African country who had a friend...who was a general, who he trusted with his life. And then that general plotted a coup against him that nearly killed him. From that day, that king became a maximum dictator...because if your pal can threaten you.

Nigerian leaders have been closing down streets from time immemorial...but I always remember these three tales...and I understand...even if i don't like them.
