Whoever advised Hannatu Musa Musawa to appear on the Channel Television Programme ,” Sunday Politics,” anchored by fire spitting Seun 0kinbaloye surely didn’t wish her well.
Hannatu Musa Musawa, Nigeria’s failed Minister of Culture, Arts and Creative economy, did not only retort to back footing to catch her breath from the barage of frontal unsweetened interrogations from the unputdownable anchor of the programme, her miserable flurry of unsubstantiated cultural projections and strategies, pinned her down to the canvas of conversational hiccups.
For instance, it was ” uhn, uhn, uhn” a Stammamish response to a blind upper -cut question, asking her to explain in specifics the number of jobs her ministry has created in one year after her dreamy 20 million cultural and creative jobs projected by her ministry.
It was fun watching her several uncomfortable shifts on her seat, and despite her ” bone”( bold) face, it was indeed glaring that Hannatu came to market her cultural renaissance agenda at the wrong place , a ” cemetery” platform where unprepared politicians get buried and dare not visit to propagate fallacies.
Seun 0kinbaloye did not only fact-check her one year activities in office as minister, he lured her to comment on why she must still be in office despite her biggest controversial National Youth Service saga, which has continually enjoyed soap box ranking despite her claims of judicial exoneration and clean bill of freedom from the courts.
From her remarks and explanations on the grandiose 100 billion dollars return on investment on culture and creative economy by 2030, to the invited BCG consultant company, to Culture policy review arrangements with Nigeria Economic Summit Group ( which has no known pedigree in culture policy formulation records), it was clear to discerning Nigerians, particularly practitioners in the industry that Hannatu Musa Musawa is merely day dreaming on the job.
If you are reading this review on her television appearance on CHANNEL yesterday, I will suggest and encourage you to go watch it on the YouTube platform of the Television station and to add, very important and significant, to goggle my last report on Hannatu, titled ” Nigerian Cultural Tourism Odyssey: Remi Tinubu poetic response to Hannatu’s endless tales”.
That report and her television appearance yesterday would reveal the face of a minister of culture who dribbles herself in an endless web of cultural and creative figurative deceit and statistical submissions manufactured from the pit of hell.
If you close your eyes to her ” English ” just as Seun Okinbaloye did yesterday, cutting her off from her choreographed of unexplainable deliveries, which she cleverly turned into a soap opera drama of absurdities to confuse the public, all her eight points agenda on cultural renaissance and CLAP agenda, can not hold up to the measuring rods of truth and reality.
All na wash, a rope, a dope boxing stuff popularised by late boxing legend Mohammed Ali, but the channels anchor was too prepared to fall for Hannatu Musa Musawa tales by the moonlight, throwing her back to walls with flurry of blinding jabs ( questions) which left her breathless.
I won’t ever believe that Hannatu Musa Musawa can do this job. I will again leave you my readers to go fact check her and see if we are not already on a one chance bus. President Bola Ahmed Tinubu must look elsewhere for a cultural economy deliverer. Hannatu Musa Musawa does not fit!.
