He really needs to resign.

Looking at the comments above, it's obvious that 90% of NLers don't read articles, they only read the title and comment crap.

The man resigned because of his foul speech not because of the power failure. He's human and it's absolutely normal to err. But when you err you should have good words to apologize and calm the people. But, no, he went vulgar like MNK and Donald Trump. That's why he resigned.

Even Nigerian politicians don't utter this kind of thrash at their followers. The person who tried something similar to that ended up losing his gubernatorial and senatorial elections.

Little wonder journalists deliberately choose sensational but misleading headlines then hide the fact deep in the article. They know 90% of people won't read beyond the title and first paragraph.

Yet, it's this 90% that will be commenting and forming expertise on NL and Twitter.

Thank God I read your own!

Apt. Nigerians suffer so much from mental slavery. They just swallow every gabbarge that comes from the Western media.

I think it's a Nairaland problem. There are many objective people out there. The level of herd mentality on this forum is craz.y.

They have no soul. Make no mistake about it. Every USA politician is worst than Buhari 3 times and they do worst.
Wonder why u guys worship these people. It's politics that's played out. Some core deep state politicians in USA are worst than fulani and the upheaval u see all over the world especially middle East then spiralled to Africa are caused by them.
What is this one saying?

Life itself is “survival of the fittest”
The guy isn't to blame for the blackout nau so why disturb him
He doesn't always need to be politically correct!


Simple
Dem no get warm clothing??
That's why I love Nigeria - it teaches you self reliance!
Nigerians there go just wear all their cloths and drink
I'm quite sure they've been nagging
And the guy is frustrated

Hmmm
I can see the thing causing problems

The former mayor made a point. People in developed countries has become so comfortable with the high standards of living that they don't know what to do when crisis happens like what's happening in Texas now. Same thing happened in New York City when there was a black out. Every one was just stranded thinking it's the end of the world. Us in third world countries has adapted well as everyday seems to be a crisis on its own. When there is a blackout here, we put on the generator, When there is no water, We go out and look for water and so on. I hope am understood.

Why is it that it is only republican elected officials who always willfully resign when something go wrong under their watch?

Why have i not hear of any democrat official who have resign when he or she is wrong? Or tender an apology to his people!.....,..,.. Just imagine what will happen if new york governor coumo (who was blame for the death of over 15000 elders from a nursing home) or california governor Gavin newsom (who has used covid politics to completely destroy california) were republicans!.....,.. And yet these two evil democrat governor have refused to step down or tender an apology despite call from everyone for them to do so.

With all honesty, republican party need to learn how to grow tough balls, they need to learn how to stood up to defend themselve, if not democrat wil destroy them and the entire country.

Republican party need to ask themselves why all the party supporters love trump and not the party..... They also need to ask themselves why trump always refer to them as weak party.

He should have stood by what he said and not back down.

One day of power outage and people could not find the intelligence to fend for themselves. Imagine how dependent men have come to be on tech and electricity.

If you call someone for days and they don't pick people automatically think something bad has happen. No one will have the presence of mind to visit your house to know first hand what is really going on. That's how much we have lost out natural sensitivity.
Re: Tim Boyd: Texas Mayor Resigns Over Power Failure And Facebook Post (Photo) by uunwanaobong3: 10:42am On Feb 19, 2021
I strongly bet and i am very sure that if the official was a democrat, he would not have resign.

Democrat party are filled with corrupt officials and politicians with no moral upbringing they are like nigerian politician, they dont feel sorry or apologies for anything
