I need to put this out there. Do not come to my comments to tell me not to talk about politics. Especially when you say, “focus on football”, I’ll block you and move on. Many of you don’t even know politics more than I do, and choosing not to talk about it more often than not, does not mean I don’t know about it. I was 8 years old when I was already going for ward meetings, my mum was woman leader of A.D back then in Eti Osa, where she also later contested for House of Assembly. We’ve done AD, PDP, AC, ACN, CPC. We’ve been going to ward meetings and party meetings in Eti-Osa from the 2000s, many of you that say these things to me in my comments weren’t even born then, it’s amazing. During holiday jobs back in the day, I have worked across 3 LCDAs and Ikeja Alausa, many of you haven’t even been privy to such. I was born and raised in Obalende, and all these BAT you’re shouting, some of us use to walk into his house at Bourdillon back in the day. Na Falomo area I school sef just to add. The last chairman of Ikoyi/Obalende LCDA, Fuad Lawal, was like a big brother to me, we stayed in the same compound growing up at Daniel’s Compound in Obalende, his late younger brother was my friend. His other brother and I still chat on WhatsApp. If you know Obalende well back in the day, you’ll know Daniel’s compound. I’ll stop here, but if I don’t talk about politics, do not ever think I have no idea about it, I was born in it. I’m not a fan of it, but I can talk about it. I am Nigerian before anything. I can choose to stay anywhere in the world and I’ll be fine, but these places ain’t my home. Nigeria is my home, my family lives there, my friends live there, many of them are struggling and trying to make ends meet due to how the current government has turned the country into. They have plunged us into serious suffering. Monday was the umpteenth time I’ve had to pay the school fees of some of my nieces and nephews because their parents are fighting for their lives in that economy. Few weeks ago, I was tweeting a lot about Brazilian politics, now it’s my country’s politics and someone will enter my comment and tell me to focus on football talks, and usually it comes from these APC miscreants. They’re always the one. One thing is assured, you can support whoever you want, I will never ever come into your posts or comments to tell you anything or cuss you or tell you that you’re making a wrong decision. However, I do not expect you to come into my comments to do same. It’s my page and my timeline and you cannot police my tweets. I have friends that support them, we have arguments everyday but I respect their opinions. I’ll tweet against this current government like never before. My friends that are working above average jobs are struggling, my family is struggling, the government has failed the people. The only people that want them again are those benefiting from them. They say we’re a poor nation but we don’t live like one. The government wants us to be patient but they’re buying SUVs for themselves, even youth leaders are collecting SUVs, they’re ripping the country off but they’ll tell the people that they should be patient. The poverty doesn’t touch them, we’re the only ones meant to suffer. I put it to you, if you vote for APC again after these past 4 years of suffering, you’ll even suffer more the coming years. 4 years ago, he told you he’ll give you electricity, reduce cost of living, etc. guess what? Those things quadrupled, and now he’s back again, repeating the same things and you’ll still vote, are you cursed? Have some self reflection.
