When the President of the country displayed his lack of ignorance for protocol by directly calling KWAM 1 to commensurate with him on the demise of his mother. The Fuji legend returned the gesture by his own regard for decorum. An Igbo adage goes that a man gives his son the marching order to go and attack his neighbor should expect the worst result. With our silence on the significant implication of that phone call. We should expect the worst from KWAM 1.
And what was the worst that could have happened from that plane incident. A plane crash that might have involved the loss of many lives. That is the repercussion of coercive behavior we love to ignore. Power abuse happens when people like KWAM 1 exploit their authority to demean, control, or marginalize ordinary citizens. He put the President on speaker phone for us to hear and be intimidated. No reprimand from the authorities that should know better. We acted like the inappropriate was the normal thing to do. Afterall, he is the drummer boy of the President. He made Tinubu. So, what is wrong in drinking alcohol on plane. Making the plane crash. Putting his own life and many others in jeopardy.
People like KWAM 1 lack emotional intelligence and the self-awareness to understand the burden of proximity to power. The need to protect the image of the President that he says he grew up with in Ita-garawu. His bad behavior did not start with this plane incident. It will not end with it. It may end with the loss of lives. Including his. But what does a bastard like me know? Let me continue to GANUSI. One day God will put butter on my bread. Like KWAM 1.
