The outcry over the comments by erstwhile
missing-in-action Enugu State Governor, Sullivan Chime, who after over 140 days
absence from the State without as much as bothering to formally hand over to
his deputy or inform the people of his State of his whereabouts, that he owed
nobody any apology for his absence is quite pitiable.
Its either we do not yet get it or we have chosen to,
like the Ostrich; bury our heads in the sands in the face of a fraudulent
national Constitution which ensures that the rulers owe the ruled absolutely
nothing.
Dear Sullivan Chime, I very much agree with you: you owe
nobody any apology whatsoever. You and your peers who have by one way or the
other attained high political office in Nigeria can continue with your
profligacy because you indeed ‘owe nobody any apologies’. It is a people who
have opted to remain docile in the face of infamy; who have continued to
condone rascality in high places; who have reneged from asserting their
humanity, that actually owe themselves and the future generations of our
contraption an apology.
Perhaps the next governor or even Mr. President who goes
on a trip abroad should consider ruling our contraption via Skype! The Nigerian
Constitution actually allows it!
