Even by Nigeria's already low standards, this was cold and badly presented visually.
When I saw the video of the Nigerian president in Plateau, I didn't believe it. I waited.
The reason the nation permits private jets and helicopters for the president is to allow quick travel across the country at any time. This means the President can fly from Aso Rock to an airport, then to a Local Government area in Plateau State, and return, around the clock.
I have not seen instances where victims are taken to be comforted. Nor have I seen a leader state that he needs a power supply before leading.
In this case, a woman in deep mourning over a security failure is transported to an airport to meet the official responsible for security, who tells her, โI can't stay more than a few minutes because there is no power here.โ
Words cannot express my sadness.
It is clear that the President only visited to tick a box โ to provide visuals that will enable the media team to respond to Nigerians who will sincerely question what was more important than going to the very place where the killing happened.
What message has been conveyed? Will the president stay longer at a wedding of the rich than at a burial of the poor?
There is something deeply wrong with Nigeria's political class.
No wonder the President is often in France; France has 24/7 power.

He was leading the Prayer Meeting, dropping Prayer Points every 5 minutes.
When they finish praying over one, he gives the congregation the next one.
At some point, he said, "Jesus is the LION of the TRIBE of JUDAH. He is a GOOD LION. But the others are BAD LIONS...

He is 64 (or thereabout).
He has been in the Civil Service for over 34 years.
But he didnโt really get married on time. So two of your siblings are still in the university.
