Ben Murray Bruce Is An Opportuned Politrician by saintgp(op): 9:24am On Dec 18, 2016
INTELLIGENCE IS NOT PERFECTION..
I have been studying sen.ben Murray Bruce for close to a decade now.starting from:
(1)The days during which silverbird man of the year award was a prestigious award to that of;
(2)His 2011 governosrship ambition.
During the two afore-mentioned outstanding moments,i,just like every other well meaning Nigerians saw Sen.Ben Murray Bruce as one of the impeccable Nigerians that will make impact in moving the state nay country to a greater height.infact i was sad when it was finally announced that he has been screened out of the pdp governorship primaries election.
Alas!my joy knew no bound when he finally opted to represent the good people of bayelsa east constituency as their senator.he kept coming up with nice,thought-provoking broad-cast as some of the things he would be making sure the red-chamber pass as BILL(s),enough is enough he would always add as his ending words/statements.

Why tagged him an opportuned poliTICIAN one would ask?

Well let me start by giving a brief insight to who i regard as a poliTICIAN.a politician is simply someone who plays politricks. And for the record,it is pertinent to state that since 2015 world politics has metamorphose to politricks.

What then is politricks,and how is sen.ben Murray Bruce a culprit(if permitted to use that word)?

Politricks simply has to do with the act of telling the masses(gullible ones,educated beings included)what they wanna hear,as doing that will end you their,trust,support and most importantly vote.president buhari did it(e.g. I will pay unemployed nigerians #5000 monthly,create 2million jobs annually),donald trump did something similar not forgetting Gambia and Ghana president(s) elect.

Sen.Ben Murray could be said to be a culprit of politricks in that:for the past 1year-plus as a senator,he has not done anything remarkable for his constituency instead he keeps deceiving them/nigerians via twitter.i always look forward to hearing him speak on the floor (of the senate plenary)only to end up getting disappointments as he hardly makes any thought-provoking contribution(unlike what he does on twitter) and this made me conclude that he is an opportuned politician.
Opportuned because he has been able to surround himself with outstanding aides(online media officers) who help him out with what to say online.little wonder why he's usually (almost) empty during senate sittings.

N/B:before some e-lords come hear to list the proposals or self-acclaimed bills he has submitted to the clerk of the house.i colloquially wish to make it known to everyone that submitting bills that are yet to be given attention to is as good as not submitting.it is your duty to ensure(via lobbying or any means whatsoever)that this bills is considered during plenary sittings and pass into law,not until its been pass into law then nothing has been done.

So this is it, instead of engaging in pertinent national issues we are now to gossip about how a senator is fairing in representing a small senatorial district in Bayelsa. undecided

Our youth really deserve what they are getting in this country.

So would you rather a politian told you he would do his best to INCREASE poverty, insecurity, starvation, unemployment rate, etc?

Why do people always see faults where's none?

the watch-word was on "poliTRICIAN"...i guess u r indirectly telling d world that u r dull for finding it hard to read between the lines.well let me break it down to your level:
the thread is simply aim at expressing mine and other well meaning nigerians disappointment in sen.ben Murray Bruce inability to effect change in the red chamber.

economic liability...does enjoining (someone that was viewed as) outstanding tantamount to seeing fault where there is none?quite alarming
