This is a new year, and as expected, we just got surprised by the Federal Government of Nigeria.
Remember last year? It was the fuel subsidy song dancing on our lips. Now is the time for a new song unto the Most High- the song of mobile phones!
Alot has been said on the N60billion worth of 10million phones for 10million farmers.
I would just want to ask the President these questions:
1. Can theses phones be planted to yield more phones (because the rural farmers in picture know nothing more than planting and harvesting)?
2. Will the farmers have the President's number pre-installed on it?
3. These phones in question, are they iPhones or BlackBerry Porsches?
4. How would the farmers charge them (the phones), as most of these rural areas are without electricity?
5. Will the President also allocate a part of the 2013 budget to buying of recharge cards for these farmers?
6. What qualifications must a rural farmer possess to be among the lucky 10million?
7. Being a farmer himself, will Aremu Obasanjo be among the lucky few?
8. Rural farmers in this part of the world are mostly illiterate, how do they operate these special phones? Are they 'voice command' enabled?
9. Due to the fact that logistics, transportation and phone distributions werent covered in this calculation, will the President use out of his bogus salary and allowances to foot this bill?
10. Finally, I remember the president promising us last year, after the subsidy quagmire that he would provide special vehicles to ease transport problems.
One year on, and no sign of those vehicles. Did they disappear into thin air?
