 So, the General Assembly declared March 21st as World Down Syndrome Day in December of 2011. Now the day spreads awareness and support for those living with this disease, Down Syndrome. This is a very special day. You know, it's interesting if you've been around people, mothers that have kids living with Down Syndrome, you would know that. So I have a particular woman that, you know, it's my neighbor, my place of business, and she has a son that has this Down Syndrome. It's a lifetime project. It's a lifetime project because these children can't, they technically cannot do anything without, you know, without assistance, you know, so it's a lot, it's a lot. It takes a lot of grace and patience to be able to manage them. So if there's anything that I would like, you know, for the government to start to do really, there are children that have this particular disability and I know that any form of support, you know, would help. So I have a friend, a friend's brother that the child has cerebral palsy. In Nigeria, they used to hide that girl in their room and all of that. But the husband got a job, her brother got a job and they relocated, you know, outside of the country and the kind of reception, the kind of attention, the kind of love, it is because of the same girl that they were hiding in Nigeria, do you understand? The attention, the government, I mean, they changed, they brought in specialised bed, they came to her room, they set up her bed, she has specialised bed, she has nurses that come to take her for, what is it called, to go for swimming classes, different kinds of activities. And guess what, the condition has completely improved from when she was in Nigeria. You know, these kind of cases that you think is hopeless and all of that. So these things involve money, because if they tell you how much the government is investing on those children, you will be shocked, you know. But because they pay, you know, some premium on health insurance, it covers up, because if you wanted to pay through your nose, trust me, something you can never afford, you know. So I understand that, you know, some of these children with these kinds of disability, you just need to put them in a different environment, they would improve, they would continue to. So it's just that it's at a slow pace, but they would improve. So instead of just, you know, yeah, go ahead, Issey. Aside from that, Osai Wame, the thing is, we in Nigeria, based on our culture, our beliefs, we tend to disregard and disrespect these children with Down syndrome. We have totally ignored the fact that these children are experiencing this disability based on the fact that it is a genetic disorder and it's not something that they can actually help, you know, and we have done this in a way that we have, we have shown them in such a way that we have disregarded them in the society. That's why child who was taken abroad was giving them attention and giving that environment to bloom. Now, we also come back here in Nigeria, we have done it in such a way that the lifespan or expectancy of these children are quite... It's not only the children, Issey, it's everybody. Yes. But especially for these children. Yeah. We're actually talking about Down syndrome. So for these children, it's actually short in comparison to those, the counterparts who are living abroad. And the counterparts living abroad. Absolutely. And the counterparts living abroad can actually, you see them do a lot of things. Yeah. Exactly. We have, I once saw somebody who was, a few people who were actually famous and their actors, their models, and they actually... Living with Down syndrome. Yes. Yes. Absolutely. But we do not have something like that in Nigeria. We're not even taking care of those who are able and well-feeded, not to talk about those who are not, that are disabled in one way or the other. Absolutely. I completely agree with you, honestly. So we can actually do better. All right. Angie, your story for us. So my story in the news today is the fact that Punkia Kindeli deletes some or all of her politics related posts from Instagram. So, story going out today is that the deputy governorship candidate of the PDP, which is the People's Democratic Party in Lagos, Punkia Kindeli, has, after the just concluded elections, deleted posts on her Instagram page related to politics and PDP. And, you know, this is a public figure who has about 15.7 million followers. And I know that during the election, during the campaign and election season, there was a lot of talks, you know, she actually came out on... Under the party. Under the party to say, you know, her followers were going to back her up for her campaign and all that, and they were going to come out and vote. And I know that it was a little bit... The election turned out a little bit differently for PDP where they were not able to meet up, and I think they came a distant third. And so it's just funny. When I saw it in the news, I was just wondering what could have gone through her mind to come to such conclusions. Is it that she had ended, decided to end her political career in general and going back to the entertainment world, or she was taking a break? But, you know, people do... I mean, I delete tweets, I mean, posts now. Yes, we all delete posts, but when you delete a post... But did you monitor her page through and through? She never really posted a lot, like somebody that was really ready to win an election, if she was leveraging on her social media handle. Correct me if I'm wrong, because I know that at some point she had to take a break from politics, she was promoting the Booker movie, that her Booker Street movie. In the heat of campaign, she was still promoting. So, I mean, she never... She rarely posted enough, as far as I was concerned. If you compare her to other celebrities that, you know, were running for offices, you would see daily posts, different things and all of that. She rarely did post, you know, about the campaign. And for me, it comes surprising, because it's not from a place of the fact that you're not into social media. You know, this is someone who is a social media person. And I believe that the choice of her as a deputy candidate was based on, you know, the supposed assumption that, oh, she had the... Because, you know, the kind of followership that she has was more of the people, like, you know, the Alim Oshawa, the Mushi, you know. Those are the support her projects, right? So, I mean, I believe that that was part of what informed the choice of her even being selected as a deputy candidate, right? So, I mean, for me, it's not a big deal, because I didn't even really see that she was really serious about winning that election. Both candidates in the PDP. The only person that I actually saw that was really ready for the election, was running to win the election, was the Labour Party candidate and the governor himself, the APC candidate. So, they were no brainer for me. So, it wasn't... It didn't come to me as a surprise. I don't know why it's even making news. Moving on. That was quite neat, okay? So, my story today is about some disgruntled Nigerians destroying their international passport on Instagram. I would like for them to play the video. To me, it doesn't make sense, but that's fine. Where's our video? God bless. Nigeria is a state. Nigeria is a nation. Turning evils to go back to where they come from. Are you people s***? Are you all s***? Are you all s***? Nigeria is a state. First of all, when I saw this, the first thing that came to my mind was... I think there are lots of mental people, you know, that are just going around the world in Nigeria. Because you're not even in Nigeria. We are here with no torn passport. So, what are you trying to say? If the authorities should come and arrest you now because you're defacing... I don't even know the word to explain it, but I don't think that is something that is right to do. I don't think an American or a British citizen can do this online. Like, even when they were mad about policies, it's just not right. Why do we have to be different? Why do we have to embarrass ourselves in public? Like, what is this supposed to mean? And I think from the second one, the second person who tore his passport is clearly expired because I could see the punch from the immigration which they do. So, I don't know what point you're trying to make or what kind of attraction that the person is trying to make. Those passports is not even... Don't we have a new... My design international passports... It's... I agree totally with Mary. It really doesn't make sense. Why? Because, first of all, you're outside the country. That's the only reason why you would do it because maybe you have a second passport. So, that's fine. You can decide you're not coming back to Nigeria but you have family here. Some of those passports is not going to be used for travel. They're still very living people. So, we're still going to come here and we're still going to come back to this country. So, does that mean you're ripping apart your passport? Does that mean we're not going to make it down here anymore? This matter, we're going to deal with these diaspora people because I have a lot of bone to pick with them because you talk, you incite. You're not in Nigeria. Literally, I was in a treat space one time and I heard somebody saying, go down the street. Occupy what? Have you not seen what's called protests and all of those things don't work? Occupy what? You're sitting somewhere outside of the country and you're busy commanding people to go and occupy what? I will pick their bone later. Not with today. This is for another day. Isi, please, what's your story? Why not occupy? They should just come over. Teach them what happened in their lifestyles again. Mine is a follow-up story and it's on Tunkarindela deleting the tweets again and her pictures online. Yes, it's making the news because the brother or the colleague in the industry has actually called out to her and asked her why she deleted her pictures. You know, Yula Dochi actually had his thing in politics. I think it was in 2017 and in the process he was campaigning for the gubernatorial election in an unresting at the time. I think he has an idea of what Tunkarindela was going through during this whole political cacophony and she wants a situation whereby she can actually look at it from another perspective. There was something from Tunkarindela earlier, she said that she doesn't regret actually going into politics that she has learnt a lot in the process and it also calls to mind the saying that says never stop learning because life never stops teaching because she has done this and she has learnt a lot. She has been able to understand the political atmosphere and she has made that decision to actually delete her post but here Yula Dochi is actually telling her to keep this car or the experience and not delete it. I would say yes I agree with Yula Dochi everything you go through in life is something that will take you to the next journey. Yes, maybe in another four years she can actually contest for the election and probably she might win if it depends on the party she decides to go for. They caught him. There was a caught. So some ray of, what's it called? This is some ray of good that came out from all this campaign because I remember that the Labour Party kept on happening, increment of civil servants salary, increment of civil servants salary will increase civil servants salary, so too. So our Gov. Babaji Deseng Wolu has increased civil servants salary by 20% and now according to the head of service Hakim Murio-Kawala the increment took effect January 2023 so it means that all the areas from January up until March will be paid in the month of March. I'm excited for this news because again, in all the fights there were some great ideas that came out from different political parties. So it would be nice, I always say that no matter how the fight is going during campaign, when the part of governance comes it would be nice that you pick some of these great ideas that came out from manifestos or other parties and all of that and implement. So this is a good thing that I thought to just mention it. So on that note we take a break. When we come back from the break let's discuss the aftermath of the gubernatorial elections and all the tribal bigotry and all of that that went on and we want to find out how we all can heal from it and just move on. Stay with us, we'll be right back.
