Ambassadorial List: ‘I’m Chilled, Staggering’ — Moghalu Reacts to Nominees’ Past Remarks on Tinubu

Kingsley Moghalu, a former deputy governor of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN), stated on Thursday that he was “chilled” by comments made in the past by certain ambassadorial candidates disparaging President Bola Tinubu.

Moghalu questioned why these ambassadorial aspirants, who had disparaged Tinubu, now took crumbs.

Moghalu posted on X, saying, “When I see what some of today’s @officialABAT ambassadorial nominees have written and said about him in the past, I am chilled to the bones.” I do not support or oppose President Tinubu politically.

It’s acceptable to have political and even philosophical disagreements with others and then change your viewpoint.

However, it is astounding how harsh, personally abusive, and derogatory language these people have used to characterize a human being, only to then turn around and receive crumbs from the victim of the abuse.

For heaven’s sake, stay in your lane if you have such strong feelings about a person as well as about causes.

“I believe it tells far more about the speaker or writer than about the person mentioned or written about, without elevating anyone to sainthood, to go to such extremities simply because of transient political resistance (or “crumbflakes” dropping at the moment) and then eat your own vomit! If some people claim that Nigeria is a “zoo,” we would respond that their terminology is offensive. My two cents.
