 Celebrated police officer Abba Kiari suspended as force investigations or investigates allegations of bribery against him. This brings the many allegations of police corruption and brutality in Nigeria. We'll find out how to truly reform the police force. Also coming up on the breakfast is a review of the ward congresses of the all progressives congress APC that took place across the country. We'll have multiple reports of violence and parallel party structures. Plus the association of resident doctors to begin another strike today. The complaints aren't new, but the doctors say they are tired of being ignored. We'll say good morning and welcome to the breakfast on Plus TV Africa. First Monday, the month of August. We hope that it's going to be a beautiful week. Welcome back to Annetta, Felix. Good morning. Yes, good morning to you and good morning to you, Saragay. It's great to be back on the breakfast. It's been quite an eventful week in Nigeria. Oh my God, it's so much. Look at what's happening to Abba Kiari, the Hosh Poppy case, the whole investigation. What's happening with the doctors in Nigeria, you know, just like you mentioned, these complaints are not new. So why do we keep still seeing them? They had given an ultimatum for over 100 days and they had to wait until, you know, the president of the National Association of Resident Doctors made that declaration in Abba on Saturday. And we also have, you know, that very important issue that we'll be discussing later on on the breakfast. Absolutely. It's going to be a very interesting morning. And so we're going to, you know, definitely have these conversations, you know, and also a mix of a little bit of sports and Nigeria's fate at the Olympics. So let's see how it goes. All right. Let's kick off with our first top trending story. You mentioned the Olympics. We know that when Tobiyama saw 23-year-old qualified for the Tokyo Olympics, she made it through some stages. We're very happy. Like, she was one of the first women to do so after Gloria Anoze. But the sad thing now is that she has crashed out. And when we took a look at the table, we saw that there was no medal for Nigeria at Tokyo 2020. Tobiyama saw eventually finished fourth place in the 100-meter hurdle. That was the closest Nigeria got to a medal. We saw that athletes from Puerto Rico, from US, Jamaica finished in top three in that order. But we'll still take a look at how Nigeria is performing in those games. You'll see that Adigoke didn't compete the 100-meter final as, you know, due to injury made them stop midway. And a women's basketball team is out. We lost out to Japan this morning. But we still have some hopes anyway. We have Blessin there who's still competing in the women's freestyle. 68 KJ wrestling. Esa Brome is also there who will be taking part in the women's long jump final tomorrow. And also Ayamedi Imano Bella who's taking part in the women's K-No sprints. But I don't know how you would say it. Some people would think, you know, this is just disappointing for Nigeria. If you even remember the protests that occurred, you know, when people took to, you know, the streets basically protesting everything that is wrong, Nigeria's non-involvement so to speak and all of that. But what do you really think about what Nigeria's status currently is when we look at the global games? So, personally, you know, for those who are disappointed, I'm shocked that they are disappointed. I'm not sure what we exactly expected. You know, and I said this two weeks on the show or three weeks ago that, you know, I don't think any Nigerian was expecting us to go there and go, you know, win medals, you know, and come back home proud because if you don't prepare, there's nothing really that you would win. These countries and these people that you're speaking about that have won, Jamaica has blown away athletics. The lady in the cameraman named now the swimmer, you know, has currently now has 10 Olympic medals, you know, and that is because of preparation and because they have federations, athletics federations, they have, you know, sports ministries in their countries that actually create a space for them to prepare. And it built up to the, I always want to say elections, it built up to the Olympics, how many, you know, of these athletes, how many of these Nigerian athletes in every single sport did any Nigerian look at and say, oh, this is definitely one of, you know, the medal hopefuls? None. There's absolutely none. Let's say, you know, Calgary maybe was one of the people that was always in the news somehow, some way, but she is the only person, you know, any other name that you mentioned now, a lot of Nigerians, I can vouch, I can say that a lot of Nigerians, you know, I hear some of these things for the first time. You know, they didn't know that they were even in the Olympics in any of these sports. How many Nigerians knew that Ayame de Manuel is going to be in Canoe Sprint? How many? Did any other person know about these people? So it's not disappointing. You know, I already expected it to play out this way. And so I'm only just, you know, seeing things play out exactly the way that I already imagined that it would play out. And, you know, if we are going to the Olympics with prayers and going to the Olympics with, you know, oh, God, you do it for us this time, then we're not ready. Our athletics, you know, the Ministry of Sports in Nigeria has a lot of questions to answer. You mentioned the protest, you know, and I'm sure that, you know, at the end of the Olympics, they're going to come back home and carry the same attitude to the next Olympics. There's not going to be any actual questions asked as to what really happened to Nigerian Olympics in the preparation to the Olympics. Look at how embarrassing it is that we had athletes disqualified because, well, they weren't tested, you know, out-of-competition tests weren't carried out, you know, on them. Look at how embarrassing that is. So is it the athletes' fault? Is it the sports ministry's fault? Who didn't know that they should have been testing these athletes, you know, in the build-up to the Olympics? So for me, not disappointing in any way. This was exactly the way that I thought that things would play out. It's just really, you know, maybe a little bit embarrassing, you know, but because I already expected it, then I wouldn't feel that much. But for every single sport, plus basketball, football, we're not even there. Basketball only became popular a couple of weeks ago because of the victory against USA and Argentina, but we eventually got into the Olympics. I felt bad for them that they couldn't at least win one game. For the athletics, I felt bad for them also. Divan Lodudu got disqualified very unfairly. Desiree Okadbury was sent home because of, you know, failed drug tests. Some other person, the guy who had a hamstring injury, some other person I remember also didn't make it far in the spot that they were competing in. So if you don't plan and you don't prepare and you don't have, you know, actual facilities to put yourself in that place, then there's really nothing much that you're going to expect to achieve in any of the Olympics. And even if Nigeria qualified in football, I'm very sure that we wouldn't have gone past any stage. And this is not me, you know, speaking bad or negative against the teams, but it is purely about preparation and what next? So what does Sunday Dairy then do? What questions must be asked concerning our performance at the Olympics? I mean, what next for him? What next for every other person who is in charge of these different segments of Nigeria sports? Nothing. And you can tell that nothing's going to happen. We're going to come back home and move on. You really did hit the nail on the head when you talked about preparation because when we saw athletes qualify for the next stage at the Tokyo Olympics and were interviewed, you hear them talking about how they've been preparing years ago. Way, way, way. Even before they even mentioned which country was going to host or any of all those fine technical details, countries and athletes had been preparing years ago. But you ask yourself, really, how long ago did Nigeria really get into that zone that they were going to compete? And these are even for the individual athletes themselves who want to put themselves out there, represent their motherland. And it really just questions that we need to ask regarding Nigeria sports ministry. If we're having millions and millions of men being budgeted, what exactly is the result? What is there to show for? Because if a giant of Africa, suppose a giant of Africa, you know, is not competing at the Olympic Games or not winning medals, what really is our bragging rights? Do we even have any? It is mostly also going to be a lot of individual efforts if you look at some of these athletes. And, you know, every now and then we have a Nigerian who, I think it was one who decided to compete for Ghana instead of Nigeria. I don't remember the person's name now, but I saw that story a couple of days ago of a Nigerian who, of course, was going to be competing for Ghana. If you look at the long history of Nigeria and choosing a different country from Belgium to the Netherlands to the USA to Britain, many of them, it's really because of what they've experienced while trying to give the absolute best to Nigeria sports. It's not because they are lazy. They have put in as much effort as possible, but they've also seen that, you know, you're not getting any support or as much support as you should get from the sports ministry. We've had this tennis player, I keep forgetting names, the guy who's played tennis for almost 100 years now. There's not been anybody who's been able to come up, you know, from the whole of the Nigerian, 200 million people to come up to get into that space also and be another shining light that we should look out for with regards to Nigerian tennis. There's no other person. Same thing with athletics. All these young people, you know, running across Lagos traffic selling Gala and the ones that we make jokes of every now and then, there's so much talent in Nigeria. It's painful because there's so, so much talent in Nigeria, but you keep hearing these same names. I'm sure that there's a lot of people who can run faster than, let's not carry it again. I give her all the credit that she deserves because she's walked too hard for this. There's so many other young Nigerians, I believe, that can run as fast as she can or even run faster, but you know, there's no effort, you know, from the ministry of sports to grow these talents or to give them a space that they can thrive. So I'm not sure what is surprising that we didn't do well in the Olympics. There's absolutely nothing surprising. We went there, we displayed exactly what Nigeria is and then we came back home. That's it. Pretty simple. Let's turn now to politics. We know Pastor Chandibakery is very vocal about his political views, and this time around, he's been talking about the state of insecurity in Nigeria and, of course, putting President Mohammed Buhari in that mix. We have that video for you. I'm not pitching you against anybody that don't control your PBC. But if the reason for voting PDP out is because of insecurity and corruption, and now it's worse, in fact, other to it is banditry, kidnapping or by equity. About three of them have been kidnapped. One was killed on his throne, asking for ransom. Come on. Come on. Come on. Except God is an unjust God. You know, fold his hands. This is why we are crying out so that before it is too late, Mohammed Buhari can think. We are his thinking cap. I think of legacy and rise up and fold his hand. I said this will not be my legacy. Okay. Pastor Chandibakery there saying President Mohammed Buhari still has a chance to correct his legacy. But if he hasn't done that in the past how many years, we have less than two years to the next elections. Just how much can he achieve? That's the only question I have. Well, it brings me back to mention to talking about why Nandra politicians are so concerned about legacy. Your legacy is just government. Do the things that people want to go. What actual legacy? You see state governors spending four years wasting time and then the next four years they start to look for something called legacy project. But funny enough, it's weird that they talk about legacy projects towards the end of their tunnel. Not realizing that you started building your legacy from the day from the very first day. Exactly, so that's why I started with that. And then second, yes, like you mentioned you've gone six years. What do you have to achieve in the next two years? What will be the thing that you can pull off in the next two years? That's another one. The third one is at what point they say is when you wake up that is your good morning. Whenever you decide to wake up. But at what point Pastor Chandibakery wake up and start making these statements. And at what point when we say things like oh it's getting too much. First of all, Sheikh Ahmad Ghumi there's a video clip, I just don't know we never got to share that. There's a video from Sheikh Ahmad Ghumi saying about the same thing that if you criticize Jonathan for insecurity and you actually resign then you should do the same thing for President Mohammed Bawari. At what point did it become too much? It's a question that I always ask Nigerians. When I see statements on social media saying oh it's insecurity and I'm getting too much. Or the misrule or the mismanagement comes and I'm getting too much. At what point did it become too much? When it hit home, when it got closer to you, when you saw a story that maybe was close to where you live or somewhere near your village. It has been too much for a long time. It has been too much for the shiites since 2015. It has been too much for the people in Benway State since 2016. It's been too much for a very, very long time. When does it become too much for Bawari? It should have been a problem right from the Rand bombing in 2015 or 2016 when the Air Force misfired and killed 150 people. It had been too much from that point. 87 people were killed in Benway State in 2016, 2017. It was too much then. So it's not getting too much now. Let's not, you know, Tunibakari should have been speaking about these things way back. It's not in 2021 that it became too much. It has become a challenge in 2021 when we are two years to go to the elections. We're now speaking about Andrea from Nigeria Group. For me, I don't agree. But yes, when you wake up is your morning, I get that. But it has been too much for a very, very long time. And every single life that has been lost, to bandits, to kidnappers, to Aishwab, to Boko Haram, it had been too much for all of those families for the longest time. And it's not obviously the government and the likes. But if you're talking about the current administration, that's when it started. And it has been too much from the very first time that dozens of people were killed and the government refused to pay attention to them. From the very first time that 100 people were murdered in their sleep and the Nigerian government failed to even address or speak about it. And the president is in a different country or refuses to speak to the press or refuses to actually take action. It has been too much from then, even Amad Gumi said it in the video clip that, oh, you know, the number of people who have died in this administration is way more than the ones who died in Gula Jonathan's administration, according to him. But it's not a death Olympics. We're not looking to compete with numbers now. Oh, 2,000 people died here, but now it's 2,500. That's not the challenge here. Every single Nigerian life that has been lost since the very first day that the president took over has been too much from that point, even if it's one person, 10 people, 5 people. Every single Nigerian that his life was lost because of the high handers of the police that they failed to address from way back. It has been too much from that point. Every single person who lost their lives to kidnappers because the police refused to investigate or suddenly, you know, couldn't get themselves to rescue those people. Every single child that has been lost, they have on a normal day. They've had to sell property, they have gotten themselves in debt to pay those ransom and get their kids back. It's been too much from that point. It didn't start being too much last Sunday, Pastor Bakari. With all due respect to him, and I understand once again, when you wake up, that's your morning, but it didn't start last two weeks, it didn't start on Sunday. All of this, and this is one of the reasons a lot of people look at these things and say, oh, this is actually just politicking, because you should have started speaking from day one when these things affected you, and it doesn't have to affect you directly before it becomes a problem. If 347 Nigerians, as I always mentioned, 347 Shiites could be murdered, and Nigeria moves on from that, and that's it. That's the end of that case. Nobody's investigated for failing to adhere to a tactic in combat and the rules of engagement in the army, and that's what led to that. In two days in Zaria, what are we talking about? When did it become too much really for every single Nigerian? It should have been too much then. I don't have to be a Shiite, I don't have to be from Benio, I don't have to be from Zamfara or Katsina, for me to understand that those 11 lives that haven't gotten justice till now, five, six years after, they deserve justice, and it was too much at that point, not last week's Sunday. We'll be taking a look at the community, culturally, in public affairs, and a list to stay with us.
