Dr. Ogunade’s malicious hatchet-job confirms the saying, “no good deed shall go unpunished.” Ogunade’s comments are not just repugnantly vile, but utterly reckless and offensive. It is offensive to Ambassador Marwa’s family; the good people of Nigeria, whom Marwa continues to serve with distinction; and yes, the Giwa family.
Marwa literally pulled himself up by-his-boot-straps to earn several college degrees, including a Master's in Public Administration from Harvard University, and an unimpeachable public service record. Ogunade should know better than attempt to lend legitimacy to hear say.
If Ogunade’s hatchet-job is meant to preempt Marwa from seeking new ways to serve his country, then for Nigeria’s sake, Ogunade should consider his diabolical attempt a failure. As what Nigeria needs more than ever are public servants, such as Marwa, with academic training in public service, and demonstrated record of accomplishments. Ogunade, your 10-seconds of lime-light is over; now go bow your head in shame and notoriety.
