Over the years, Nigeria has witnessed the progressive enrichment of the rich and the trampling of the poor. The middle class has long been wiped off, with the resultant effect of the dehumanization of the citizens.
Today’s post, Bedroom Boundary Adjustment, cast in humour, presents one such case. Let us pray and hope that, as the incoming Government begins to take form, the regeneration of the economy will be treated as a matter of National Emergency.
Lest we forget…CHANGE IS HERE
CARTOON CORNER
One of the greatest phenomena in Nigeria’s political evolution is Chief Oluṣẹgun Matthew Okikiọla Arẹmu Ọbasanjọ. Having given of his best as an army engineer, especially in the civil war, OBJ, as he is fondly called, emerged as an unwilling Head of State on February 13, 1976, following the assassination of General Murtala Mohammed.
The political cotton wool that beclouded him in 1976 fell off after he walked from the prison gates right into the seat of power in 1999, like Biblical Joseph. Before he emerged President and Commander-in-chief of the Armed Forces, Chief Obasanjo took time to chronicle some of his high points as well as general observations on the civil war and more.
The endless probing from the media after this publication is the focus in today’s cartoon. Enjoy your day.
