“How can they justify spending billions on renovations when people are struggling to survive?” was the regrettable comment made by Abati over the government’s decision to refurbish the presidential and vice-presidential homes for an astounding 21 billion naira. It’s disrespectful and insensitive,” he remarked.
“We have a cost of living crisis, and you are asking us to make sacrifices… why are you yourself not making sacrifices?” Abati also stressed the need of social media responsibility, pointing out that some people misuse the medium by acting impolitely and without empathy. He cautioned about probable abuse and the degradation of freedom of expression in the event that social media control by the government were to occur. Governance should be about the public, not individual interests, as Abati vehemently contended. Under this situation of rising living expenses, leaders have to give up something.
It’s high time they prioritised the people.” Many Nigerians who believe their authorities are ignoring them share the feelings expressed in his statements. A collection of rants about life and its core may be found on Duke Rants on the Muvmnt Studio. The Duke said, “I see life differently.” I disagree with the order that society has placed us in.
