Bola Tinubu: The Poor Cant Wait Any Longer
By Sunday Njokede
Former Lagos governor, Mr. Bola Tinubu had told protesters who gathered at his Ikoyi house to be patient that their miracle is on the way. If you flip the coin to the other side: Tinubu and his family are living large in Nigeria as the Italian Mafia.
The Lagos politician has no moral ground to decide who should make sacrifices. Not when, he and his family are living fly like the Gambino crime family.
What is hotter than this? The ex-governor is hovering around the world with unearned private air-plane plus expensive playthings to match - at this time of biting economic hardship.
It is unclear how Mr. Tinubu acquired the money with which he bought a private air-plane. We are …show more content…
One of them, a retired police commissioner, narrated how Bola Tinubu lived in the police barrack in Benin City with his uncle who was a policeman. It was at that time, I knew his background.

The Lagos politician should first, purge himself and showcase a Spartan lifestyle. Thereafter, he can tell others to live with less or, nothing at all. There is enough to go round for everyone in Nigeria. If not that people as Tinubu have cornered everything for themselves and unborn generation. Making it impossible for Everyday people to have the legroom and breathing space to thrive howsoever.
As if the poor have not been masturbated and raped enough, Mr. Tinubu's wife, Remi Tinubu, is in the senate earning huge overmuch salaries. There is no other time for the political class to cut their huge criminal wages than now when there is economic downturn.
Poor and restless Nigerians have whispered, then shouted, for senators and politicians to scale down their oversize criminal wages. Our shouts have fallen on deaf ears. There was nothing left than to hit the road in protest. If he is sensitive to the plight of the poor, there is a soothing way Tinubu could have made the protesters hopeful and happy again. For example, promising that he would tell his wife and co-senators plus other politicians to reduce their vexing salaries.
If things are done properly, no one would be left out nor have to be patient for things they should readily get. Everyone would have something to hold onto and build upon as it is in the First World
