Social activist and skit maker Debo Adedayo, popularly known as Mr Macaroni, has called out Nyesom Wike, the Minister of the Federal Capital Territory, and other notable public servants who use their power to oppress the poor in the country.
His comment comes following the incidents that occurred in Abuja where a member of the House of Representatives, Alex Mascot Ikwechegh, assaulted a cab driver who had gone to deliver an item to his Maitama home in Abuja.
Macaroni noted that this would not be the first time a politician is assaulting a citizen and does not believe such incidents will end soon.
The social activist pointed out the FCT minister, who, according to him, behaves like a god. He urged politicians to resign and go home if they can’t be humble and respectful in the course of their duties.
Wike recently was captured in a video calling a young man stupid who had spoken without his permission.
Expressing his disgust at the politicians actions, he said in a series of posts shared on his social media pages.
“Nigerian Politicians lack regard for Nigerians and this is because they have never been accountable to the people. The other day the FCT Minister was addressing some Nigerians and he said; “are you stupid, is it because I came down to talk to you” You are a civil servant!!! What do you mean by “is it because I came down to talk to you” You are talking to the people that pay your salary!!! Whatever privileges your office allows you is as a function of your service to the people!!! You work for the people and not the other way round. Arrogance has no place in public office!!! Nigeria is not a private entity. Your duty is to serve!!! You are not anybody’s chairman. So next time any Nigerian Politician is addressing the people, please remind them that they are speaking to the people they are serving not their followers.”
“The case of the dishonorable Alexander is not the first time a Nigerian Politician is assaulting a Citizen. It doesn’t look like it will stop anytime time soon because the bar is so low. The people have allowed them get away with so much ineptitude. We have public servants moving around like gods. The FCT Minister addressing citizens like he is doing Nigerians a favor. If politicians do not understand that it’s an honor to serve, then they shouldn’t even be in office. Resign and go lord over your family members!!!”
“Dear Wike, you are a public servant! Next time you want to address the citizens who pay your salary, do so with utmost humility and respect. Never go about asking Nigerians if they are stupid… you are not doing anyone a favor by being Minister!!! “Is it because I came down to talk to you” lol… You must think you are talking to your slaves.”
