Excerpt:

"First, this administration has since its infancy, shown a proclivity for the mundane; its team of spin doctors panders to a Nigerian public that has yet to live the change bayed and fought for. A smokescreen of change –whatever one – to this over-expectant collective is quickly effected when there is a lull in the atmosphere. Second, well, these men just do not know when to stop.

Since May 29, a relentless barracking of infinitesimal moves by President Buhari, many of which are beneath his office, have been packaged as paradigm changers which has huge impact on Nigeria’s future. Thanks to the media and his bureau of spinners, the quagmire that has imperilled Nigeria’s development continues apace with outstanding advances in development-inclined countries....

For today’s celebration, we were assailed with the news of how Buhari slashed celebration budget to N70m. Paid and volunteer PR managers have noisily applauded this, brandishing it before “wailing wailers” as evidence of Buhari’s fiscal superiority over his predecessor. In 2014, ex-President Goodluck Jonathan spent N120bn on Nigeria’s Centenary. Juxtaposed, N70m is a far cry from N120bn, if truly that is the amount spent. Yet, this should not stop us from being circumspect; rightly questioning if the President should be the one to sit on Independence Day budgets. These are roles that should be subsumed within the daily run of affairs with such spending generating neither fuss nor drama.

These days, it seems any which way one turns, there is a report of the President making an order to stimulate people to do their jobs. One day, the media are reporting that in the wake of Saudi Arabia tragedy, Buhari has ordered the National Hajj Commission to account for all Nigerian pilgrims. Another day, we are told that he has ordered the Inspector-General of Police, Solomon Arase, to find the abducted former Secretary to the Government of the Federation, Chief Olu Falae. Again, these are supposed to be mundane issues that should not require presidential orders. Why does any agency need to be “ordered” to do its job? What necessitated a presidential intervention in what should be a routine investigative Police job?"

Real independence day bombshell. Read entire article at Punch

Nonsense article.

I guess punch is pained because no advertisement galore

This is an opinion from a pained saTANoid. This is not an opinion of Punch media outlet, but an anonymous writer's opinion.

They're some who have come to see through it now....some of us have always known...we can only say may God help us.
