Your presidential media chat lacks empathy, humanity – Bode George slams Tinubu
A Chieftain and member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Board of Trustees (BoT), Chief Bode George, has said the presidential media chat lacks empathy and humanity.
Chief George said the President through his statements is unfeeling to the plight of suffering Nigerians.
It would be recalled that President Bola Tinubu on Monday held a presidential media chat with select journalists in his Lagos home.
Drawing inferences from three food queue stampedes that claimed 67 lives in Nigeria last week, George said “there is hunger and anger in the land”, adding that yet the President continues to insist that his reforms are working while many Nigerians are becoming poorer by the day and businesses collapsing.
Chief George made these remarks while speaking on Channels TV’s Politics Today on Tuesday.
He added “We are not feeling it, it is going 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?”.
George, 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.
