Unilag Student Blasts Ben Murray Bruce Over Birthday Party
A Unilag student who was among the group of Mass Communication students
invited to Senator Ben Bruce’s 60th Birthday Celebration narrates his ordeal
at the star-studded party.
Senator Ben Murray Bruce turned 60 yesterday, he took the opportunity to
launch his book “The Common Sense Revolution” but it’s sad to see that the
event in its totality portrays the average Nigerian Politician.
Usually, I hate to attend these so called “Big” events but it was Ben Bruce,
the common sense guy, I jumped at the Opportunity to go with my department,
department of Mass Communication, University of Lagos as we were invited with
a letter and we were feeling all important.
We didn’t know it was an invitation to humiliation. At the venue, we were told
to go upstairs, we didn’t mind, as they said that area was reserved for
students. Getting there, I realized it was a perfect view to watch the
“Elites” wine and dine. Still, we didn’t care.
We only began to care when the ceremony kept going on and all tables kept
getting additional contents and we were just there, like Observers. Don’t
forget that we were invited, as I said earlier. While all of that kept
happening, I still didn’t care because they said every guest will get a free
copy of the book.
I wanted the book so, I waited on. At the end, only the guests got the Book. I had to look at our invitation to be sure we were guests. Yes, we were guests but the stiff class stratification that Senator Bruce Criticizes came to play. It’s so sad to see that the actions of the Common Sense Guy justifies the “Common Sense is not so common” statement.
Since I know it’s all fake, I’d like to give a professional PR advice. It’s so
bad, if you invite Nigerian Students, who will, to a large extent, determine
your political success, to an event only for them to watch you and your rich
friends dine. Their votes aren’t even enough.
Writing a book about Common Sense doesn’t actually make you have Common Sense.
We aren’t hungry people. We are Unilag Students and we are contented with what
we have, we wouldn’t go to shop 10 to sweet-talk anyone about common sense,
just to get rice.
Happy Birthday, Senator Ben! Thanks for the deceit, segregation and above all,
thanks so much for the Palm oil made Jollof Rice with a meat-like object.
I am Abidemi Adesokan, A concerned Nigerian Student who believes there is hope
for Nigeria, but Bruce isn’t just that guy.
