The Nation Newspaper That boorish truth by Adelabu (1)
Insolence flaunts gruesome majesty, like the forepart of the Agbanrere. Even its hindquarters is painful to glimpse – horrid and menacing in its burly immensity.
We relive Adelabu’s rant with a stunned combination of amazement and disgust. Call it his daemonic aria, a flight of feral imagination. If public governance thrives like musical theatre, Adelabu’s recent falsetto could be his cipher, the fault in his organ valve rendering his crafty melody a frantic fustian dross.
“We have all been overseas before; we know how conscious the power consumers are about electricity consumption.” The regulator said customers who receive 20 hours of electricity supply daily will pay N225 per kilowatt from April 3. The new rate is about triple the previous rate of N66 per kilowatt . Prowling at ground zero, Adelabu incinerates on the altar of insensitivity, self-intoxicated in the electric moment before lightning strikes and his mystique reduces to rubble.
The grid managed by the Transmission Company of Nigeria had 20 power plants completely down, with just Ibom Power online. Nonetheless, the grandson of prominent First Republic politician, Adegoke Adelabu, insists he speaks the truth. If there was any wisdom in Adelabu’s rant, it probably got buried in his snarl of spittle and disregard for the citizenry and electricity consumers whose interests he was appointed to protect and serve, among other responsibilities.
