A former Minister of Education,
Oby Ezekwesili, has reacted to President Muhammadu Buhari’s scheduled visits to
all troubled states.
In a post on her twitter handle,
the former Minister faulted the notion that the President’s visit is better
late than never.
She wrote: “Someone said, ‘Better
late than never. At least, President Buhari is finally visiting states that
experienced tragedies.’
“My response? You cannot FAKE
EMPATHY. Empathy flows involuntarily not mechanically. Empathy is a spontaneous
EMOTION. WE have a Deficit STILL.”
Recall that President Buhari
yesterday announced plans to visit Taraba, Rivers, Benue, Plateau, and other
troubled states.
The announcement, observers claim
was a reluctant response to public criticism over his seeming nonchalant
attitude to the plights of the victims of the clashes in those states.
