Open Letter To New Police Image Maker
This is wishing Mr. Benjamin Hundeyin, a heartfelt congratulations on his recent appointment as the Public Relations Officer of the Nigeria Police Force, an elevation from his PPRO position of the Lagos Command.
Some people, including T4T were not surprised that Hundeyin was chosen to replace Mr. Olumuyiwa Adejobi, the immediate past police PRO whom reports say was promoted and redeployed to the Delta State Command.
Hundeyin had done his job almost excellently well in Lagos. Aside from his professionalism, he also has a sense of humour very rare in most Nigerian policemen who take everything too seriously especially the ones at roadblocks when they want to collect ‘roger’ from motorists. If you don’t know what ‘roger’ is, then you are obviously not a Nigerian, so, you will have to either ask a Nigerian or check Google (that is if the meaning go dey dia).
Let us face the issue why T4T is writing an ‘open letter’ to Oga Hundeyin. Your predecessor, Adejobi, at a point, became too big for the office he occupied. A journalist colleague actually said he started seeing Adejobi as the Inspector General of Police, not the PRO. There were muffled grumblings in the pen pushers circle that Adejobi was arrogant. He will not respond to simple WhatsApp message of complaint and or inquiries by journalists. T4T actually tried at a point to reach him on WhatsApp because he knew he would be too big to take a call.
T4T outlined his complaint in about two short paragraphs. The bros read the message and this is about a year now, he did not even deem it fit to respond or act on the complaint which was for the good of the society. That confirmed what some colleagues said about him.
So, please, bros Hundeyin, continue in the path you have followed from Lagos, don’t behave like big bros Adejobi. Once again, congratulations.
NEPA Showed BBN shege
T4T was reading a statement recently by organisers of the ongoing Big Brother Naija reality TV show as they tried to explain away the power outage that temporarily cut the 24 hour show by some minutes claiming it did not cause any major damage.
T4T chuckled when he read the press statement. It was amusing too that the organisers would rely on our DISCOs to power a show of that magnitude. NEPA?
This is not saying that the arrangement BBN organisers had with the DISCO in charge of the area the house is situated was to supply uninterrupted power to that area throughout the duration of the show, but of course, NEPA fall dia hand.
A friend of T4T owns a very popular dancing restaurant and the friend had confided in T4T how the friend (if you say the friend na he or she, na you sabi) was paying the manager of the DISCO in that area over N200, 000 monthly to channel power to the area the restaurant was situated, and again, this is not saying that was or is the case with BBN people o, don’t misunderstand T4T here, please, but whatever was and or is the case, the almighty NEPA did not entirely live up to its end of the bargain, at least, for that day.
