PoliticsRe: Falana, Kperogi, Bukarti Slam Buhari Over ‘personalisation’ Of Presidential Jet by michaelAbu: 11:53am On Jan 14, 2020
ivandragon:
Buharideens continue to exhibit an alarmingly high sense of ignorance, duplicity & 'ostrichtocisis'.

Comparing a company executive car to the presidential jet is downright dumb.

The same people saying there is nothing wrong in this extravagant waste of our commonwealth are the 1st to criticize members of the NAss for taking home jumbo allowances.

Besides, they miss the most crucial points...

No one forced PMB to make promises of frugality, discipline, prudence, cutting wastage, reducing overhead & keeping family separate from official duties...

But he did & as such, sane Nigerians have every right to question what they see as unnecessary extravagance & indulgence.

If PMB says he would not fund the office of the 1st lady (which has turned out to be false anyway), why should the daughter be allowed to use the Presidential Jet to attend a cultural event as a private person?

If as PMB said his wife belongs to the background, how come the extravagance of using the presidential jet is bestowed on the daughter?

For those asking how else she would have travelled, it should have been the responsibility of the state government inviting her to be responsible for her trip & other expenses since they were the ones that invited her.

They could have arranged a private chopper to carry her or paid for some seats in first class.

There might be no concrete law against what has happened, but when you preach prudence to others, it is expected that you abide by your own teachings.
wise words
