Moghalu: I’m Shocked by Ambassadorial Nominees’ Past Attacks 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 applicants disparaging President Bola Tinubu.

Moghalu questioned why these nominees for ambassadors, who had disparaged Tinubu, would later take crumbs.

“I am chilled to the bones when I see what some of today’s @officialABAT ambassadorial nominees have written and said about him in the past,” Moghalu said on X. I have no political affiliation with or opposition to President Tinubu.

It’s acceptable to disagree with someone politically or even on principle and then change your opinion.

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

“At the very least, stay in your lane, for heaven’s sake, if you feel so strongly about someone rather than simply topics.

“To go to such extremes just because of transient political opposition (or “crumbflakes” dropping right now) and then eat your own vomit tells far more, in my opinion, about the speaker or writer than about the person spoken or written about, without elevating anyone to the status of a saint! We will say that those who claim that Nigeria is a “zoo” are using offensive rhetoric. Two pence from me.
