Gov. Fayose's Official Old Mercedes Car Is True Reflection That Nigeria Is Truly 100 Years Backward By Joe Okei-Odumakin

October 18, 2014

I saw the official car unveiled by Governor Fayose of Ekiti State as his official car being virally shared and torrentially downloaded. I have just few comments:

1) Governor Fayose made a honest depiction of the true age of Nigeria, growth development wise. Nigeria is still in the sixties but we've been faking life of 21st century people

2) The other time, this Governor won by sharing rice to people in the State. Who else is yet to agree that Nigerians are still hungry and requiring to build their stomach infrastructure?

3) We've although feigned 21st century life, but Governor Fayose is the only member of Nigeria's Political class to show us quite honestly that we are 100 years backward, through his recent metaphorical depictions

4) Ekiti is a sample of the entire Nigeria. Try this "stomach infrastructure" experiment in several other States and confirm again the level of hunger that will throw mass of people to your worship if you toss little food their ways

5) The political class kept the masses in perpetual hunger and one Governor is brazenly showing it to their faces. This is a mock reflection of the true status of the Nigerian state - and we agree we are still backward

6) We must now begin to move, very fast, having realised where we are, to get out of barbarism

6) Not everyone will wake up at same time, but many more will wake up with this one. Every Nigerian must wake up!
