So senator common sense actually lied. Just for his usual cheap seeking popularity. It is so pathetic when a supposed elder citizen sulks over handshake and misleads those who want to remain gullible. Senator Ben Bruce needs to borrow common sense, it is obvious he doesn't have it.
This was what truly transpired...

[b]"I was at the dinner. I sat in the front row along with other Principal Officers of the National Assembly. I had a vantage view of what transpired. I am disappointed by this comment from a respected colleague. I have on two occasions provided robust defense of Sen Ben Bruce. Not this time!
It was Sen Dino Melaye who first went to greet those seated at the President's table, including President Buhari. He was well greeted. No one in the senate has criticized President Buhari more than Sen Melaye. But as others rose to do what Dino had done, the scene got clumsy and indecorous because people were approaching the President's table from different directions. I sat between Sen Olujimi and Sen Bwacha. The three of us felt embarrassed by what was clearly a breach of dinner protocol. At that level, if dinner was served or being served, good etiquette demanded that the President's table should not be approached. One should wait until people had finished eating. No senator in the USA would breach such elementary protocol. We (on my table) predicted in whispers that colleagues would soon be barred from approaching the President's table and it happened. The first person to be turned back was Sen Gemade who was visibly embarrassed. He belongs to the APC; he is not a known critic of the President.
When I noticed that most people had finished their food, I approached the table and offered my pleasantries. Others followed suit. No one was turned back."

For someone that has blocked almost everyone on
Twitter, why is Ben Bruce crying about being blocked
from saying hello to Buhari?

This candid and articulate explanation makes good sense. It explains why BMB was prevented from having his courtesy handshake with the President.

However, the explanation does not make BMB a Liar.
Infact, it clearly shows that BMB was being truthful.

BMB simply misunderstood the reasons why he and, am sure, others were prevented from approaching the President's table.

But more importantly, we should appreciate the fact that BMB spoke out and brought it out to the public sphere .
If he hadn't done that, we wouldn't be talking about it, and wouldn't have prompted a clear explanation of what really happened from officials.

This is great for the evolution of our democracy.
For once, public officials feel an obligation to properly explain their conducts at the corridors of power.

Another reason why the Nigerian people, the youths especially, need to encourage BMB to keep up the good work on Twitter.

Yes, call him Twitter Senator all you like.
We need more Twitter public servants.

He wanted to capture a picture of PMB while eating so that he can quickly tweet the picture through his twitter handle but he was disappointed due to security reasons.

How does this mean that he is lying? What does he stand to gain? Even Senator Shehu Sani, who is well known to be vocal, alluded to same thing. Senator Bruce went over- board with this one. I don't know why we can't just call a spade a spade..What's with all the hate and sentiments!

And who has come out to corroborate Sen. Bruce's story from the tens of attendees? That simply tells who the skewed-minded person is. Your position on the issue makes only zero sense.

as much as I agree with you comment. I'll say this,..
like someone else pointed out. BMB gave out to the public half truth. he's not the only one it happened to and he's not the first either. the only way we can excuse him is if he himself doesn't have the full gist in what happened on the spot...

In other news why should he speak about the issue in the first place. attention seeking reasons or he just wanna paint the president in bad light??

Similar things happen everyday to each of us.
Recently, a friend walked into a meeting, shook a few hands, and didn't stretch out his hand to shake me as I had expected. I felt embarrassed and slighted.

Later on, he came to me and shook hands, and apologized for not doing so earlier. Apparently, he was on the phone, arguing with someone about something at the moment we were facing each other. He was so absorbed in the argument that he forgot to great me as was customary.

As you can see in my case, there was no way I would have known his reasons if he had not explained it to me.

No doubt, this is what happened in the case of BMB.
He felt snubbed, and he had every right to bring it out in the public sphere.

You see, my dear friend, power is a trust. It belongs to us, the people.
It is not the personal private estate of those currently in power.
Therefore, it our inalienable right to know and judge them by their conducts.

[quote author=Untainted007 post=46136497]Na 'notice me' go kill this man. He always wants to be heard yet he had made no meaningful contribution in the senate ever since he assumed office. He's full of critics. Don't he know that there is orderliness everywhere and protocol in a gathering like that, he sha wants to be noticed. MR COMMON

The thing just dey pain you. Deal with it! At least Ben Bruce is functioning 100x better than the senator representing your zone.
