The Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed has been mocked by a Nigerian OAP, Daddy Freeze over this appeal to Prophet T.B Joshua against relocation from Nigeria to Israel.
Lai Mohammed and the couple
Social commentator and convener of the FreeTheSheeple movement, Ifedayo Olarinde popularly known as Daddy Freeze has lashed out on the Nigerian government for urging the general-overseer of the Synagogue For All Nations, Prophet T.B Joshua to abandon his plan to relocate his ministry to Israel.
The image-maker of the Federal Government, Lai Mohammed earlier appealed to T.B Joshua to stay in Nigeria. Daddy Freeze
questioned the rationale behind the public appeal when better attention
should be given to the cash-trapped companies giving oxygen to the
local economy.
Read his interesting statement via Instagram below:
Dear uncle LAI,
Aren't
you going to give a press statement on Banky's engagement, as this
issue is a matter of national importance, reported by all the newspaper
and blogs and has been trending all day on twitter?
In my humble opinion, I think you should, since you addressed TB Joshua's proposed relocation.
Meanwhile,
I didn't see any press conference addressing the Erisco tomato paste
manufacturer's exit from Nigeria to Senegal, sorry I meant Kenya, citing
government policy inconsistencies among the many other issues,
catalytic to the creation of 'the harsh realities of doing business in
Nigeria' that their MD spoke about.
In his own
words, Chief Eric Umeofia stated that the 'ease of doing business' was
his attraction in opening shop in the other African Nations.
I
have a question: In Nigeria, does 'the ease of doing business' only
apply to Churches, who are pampered and protected by the government,
while most businesses I know suffer?
I read online
yesterday that MTN sacked 280 workers, somewhere else, I read the heart
wrenching details of why Econet was forced to leave Nigeria. What about
the Virgin Nigeria exit? Yet another painful one. Richard Branson
mentioned how Nigerian was one of the most difficult places to do
business. Did you, or anyone else, try to persuade the man who gave us a
National carrier to stay, the way you are persuading TB Joshua? Or was the 'revenue' we stood to lose in this singular act not as significant as losing the 'revenue' of a 'pastor?'
Earlier
today, news of Banky's engagement broke the internet, as fans and well
wishers celebrated his proposed exit from bachelorhood. I hereby use
this medium, to congratulate Banky WUH, as I fondly address him, and his
gorgeous fiancée Adesua, and wish them a beautiful engagement, a
spectacular wedding and a fairytale marriage!
