In the last few weeks, the Minister of Petroleum Resources, Mrs. Diezani Alison-Madueke,has come under intense and sustained attacks ostensibly from members of the opposition party.
The airwaves and papers have been awash with the now usual spurious allegations of missing monies, private jets et al. However, before delving into the latest wave of well scripted polemics against the minister, the question again remains: Have our journalists and politicians lost touch with reality? Is this resort to populist blackmail really the way to run a country? Do these sensational headlines with no substance to back them really do any good to the nation’s reputation or standing?
So far, we have been inundated with a medley of often convoluted facts and figures about missing funds, that any rational person would, at first glance, agree are a figment of some people’s imagination. Several fair minded commentators have weighed in at various fora to point out some obvious facts.
