Arise News TV host, Rufai Oseni, has slammed the Nigerian senators for making mockery of the plight of suffering Nigerians.
IDANNEWS gathered that Oseni berated the senators for using the slogan ‘Let the poor breathe’ pioneered by President Bola Tinubu.
In the viral video online, a senator who spoke during the plenary said, “The speech of Mr president, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, that says let the poor breath, my president, distinguished colleagues, let the poor breathe that is my additional prayer”
The senate president, Godswill Akpabio responded, “your prayer is that let the poor breathe and Senator Mustapha has seconded that the poor should breathe, those in support that the poor should breathe say hiiii”
In response, the Nigerian senators echoed hiiii
Speaking during the Arise News morning show on Friday, July 28, Oseni blasted the Nigerian senators for mocking Nigerians.
According to him, many people have to go through hard times and suffering since the increase in fuel prices and forex.
He also stressed that the Senators are unaware of the plight of many Nigerians walking on the streets and unable to afford the next meal.
Rufai added that Nigerian senators only have to look at nearby countries to see what happens when politicians take the suffering and hungry masses for granted.
