In the video, Idris finds it
difficult to pronounce the words, as he constantly repeats the words “I mean”
and “transmission”.
There were traits of dyslexia, a
learning difficulty, in his delivery.
WHAT IS DYSLEXIA?
According to a definition by
NHS.co.uk, it is a common learning
difficulty that can cause problems with reading, writing and spelling. It’s a
“specific learning difficulty”, which means it causes problems with certain
abilities used for learning, such as reading and writing. Unlike a learning
disability, intelligence isn’t affected.
Idris was said to have been
caught in the “embarrassing” video on Monday, when
he visited Kano to commission the police technical intelligence unit in the
state.
We can't say if the video was doctored, though that did not cover up for
his mistake, just that it was repeated over and again.
“I mean, transmission, I mean
effort, that the transmission cooperation to transmission, I mean transmission
to have effect, ehm, apprehend, I mean, apprehensive towards the
recommendation, recommended formation effective and effect, I mean,
apprehensive at the transmission of…and transmission and transmission for the
effective in the police command,” Idris said
After several attempts to get his
speech right, the IGP, struggling with his paper, apologised to his audience.
“Sorry, I’m sorry please,” he
said.
However, Ibrahim’s struggle did
not end there. A man in suit joins him to help hold down his script, and even
helped with the pronunciation of the words. But this didn’t make the reading
any better for the IGP.
“All effective the transmission,
other transmission, I can state without contradiction that I have commissioned
what?” he continued.
“Over transmission of, over
transmission of, over all kidnapping, armed robbery and other heinous crimes, I
mean, ehm, commission transmission, recommendation transmission.”
Below is the video:
May be that's is why he is afraid to appear before the Senate
ReplyDeleteThat's what you get when mediocrity is exalted over merit and excellence. In a nation enormously blessed with a rich reserve of human capital, it is staggering to see how those at the helm of affairs cause the majority to cringe in embarrassment each time they hold a mic or attempt to answer questions.
