Oshiomhole just called NNPCL workers rogues. Who does that help?
5 months ago
Senator Adams Oshiomhole said NNPCL is 'filled with rogues' and I am trying to understand who benefits from this kind of blanket statement. The man was a labour leader, a governor, a party chairman. He knows words carry weight. But to paint thousands of Nigerian professionals - engineers, geologists, accountants who wake up every day to work - with the same brush is lazy and dangerous.
I dey Balogun market every day and I know what happens when people lose confidence in a system. Investors no dey hear nuance. They hear 'rogues' and they pack their money go elsewhere. At a time when Tinubu's people are travelling across the world begging for investment in our energy sector, this kind of talk from a sitting senator is like shooting yourself in the foot and blaming the bullet.
If Oshiomhole has evidence against specific individuals, he should name them and let EFCC do their job. But to condemn an entire institution because of a few bad eggs? That is not accountability. That is just noise. Am I the only one that sees the damage in this kind of careless talk?
