A media aide to African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, Phrank Shaibu has mocked President Bola Tinubu over his submission that Nigeria will never return to fuel subsidy.
NEWSNGR reports that the President, while speaking at a political gathering tagged Together Till 2027: An Evening with Original City Boy, organised by the City Boy Movement on Monday, compared returning the country to fuel subsidy to biblical Moses going back to Egypt.
Tinubu said: “When Moses and Musa left Egypt, they faced a challenge, and the Red Sea parted and gave way.”
Reacting in a post on 𝕏, Ibe claimed that Atiku was correct when he told Tinubu to go back to school.
He wrote: “Atiku Abubakar was correct when he told President Bola Tinubu to return to school. The President has just given another strong reason to seriously think about that advice right away.
“Speaking about his decision not to change his mind on removing the petrol subsidy, Tinubu chose to take Nigerians on a journey through the Holy Bible and the Holy Qur’an @channelstv.
“Haba, Professor Tinubu! Which Moses and which Musa? Were they travelling together? Was Moses leading the Christian group while Musa was leading the Muslim group? Were they using different passports when they crossed the Egyptian border? Mr President, Moses in the Bible is Musa in the Qur’an.
“Same prophet. Same person. Same journey. Different languages. There was no joint expedition by Moses and Musa. There was just one man who led the Israelites out of Egypt.
“And this is the President who claims he has been deeply thinking about Nigeria’s economy?
“No wonder Nigerians are confused. A President who seems to have turned one prophet into two is now telling Nigerians that increasing their hardships is the way to achieve success.”
