Elder Statesman Blasts Tinubu’s Media Chat, Laments Lack of Empathy and Humanity

Elder statesman, Bode George, has blasted President Bola Tinubu’s Monday media chat, saying it lacks empathy and humanity.

George stated this on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Tuesday, stressing that the President, through his statements, is unfeeling to the plight of suffering Nigerians.

Talking about the three food queue stampedes that claimed 67 lives in Nigeria last week, the elder statesman said there is hunger and anger in the land, lamenting that the President continues to insist that his reforms are working while many Nigerians are becoming poorer by the day and businesses are collapsing.

ugamatv reports that stampedes occurred in Abuja, Anambra and Ibadan during distribution of food items, where several lives were lost.

“it is getting worse by the day. Hunger doesn’t believe in your talk, you gotta be real.

“I’m surprised that there is no iota of somberness and humanity in the discussion. Why do you have a discussion in the first instance,” he asked.

According to him, Tinubu’s media chat was not a good way to end the year.

The member of the Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, who insisted that the price of petrol be reduced, charged the Tinubu administration to offer immediate palliatives to hungry Nigerians whom he claimed have been impoverished by the policies of the current administration.
