Where is Mr. President?
Secrecy and invisibility breeds fake news.
No fake news peddler can rumour that President Trump has been flown to Canada for treatment. People will just laugh it off and ignore the news.

This is because Americans still saw him on TV this evening and they are going to see Baba Kebe, their hyper active and at times erratic President Trump, tomorrow jumping from one event to another at his age.

While we condemn fake news peddlers, we must condemn more those in the presidency that make avoidable apprehension and rumour mongering possible by being opaque in information management and creating a myth around the presidency.

The president of any country is the most visible man in the news on his nation's television network performing one function or the other except when he is sick and the public reserve the constitutional right to know. Even when presidents are on private vacation, it is news because a country's president has no hiding place.

Can Americans not see their president for one day on CNN and other television networks? It is not possible because presidency of any country is a 24hr beehive of national and international activities. In fact, in the order of news broadcast, news from the presidency is given top priority because it is always a Grade A event and coverage for broadcast.

In my forty years of professional experience as a broadcaster covering news and listening to news, there was no single day that President Shagari, Gen. Buhari, Babangida, Abacha, Abdul Salam, Obasanjo, Yar'adua, (except during his sickness) Jonathan were not seen in the news on NTA Network news. Why should President Buhari be different?

Buhari will just be invisible for days like Elemosho in Lere Paimo's epic play titled: Ogbori Elemosho, and some shameless people will be defending nonsense, giving excuses that are too elementary and senseless to believe. Rubbish.

I repeat and please confirm, there is no single day that presidents of countries are not seen, talk about and physically visible on their countries' television network news except when they are indisposed and their citizens will know.

Stop defending rubbish because of your political partisanship, patronage, religious, ethnic bias, or just being voluntarily stupid.

Stop defending bad precedent today because it will lead to worse things tomorrow and by then, wont you look idiotic and unprincipled if you condemn the act of appearing and disappearing of a president in future?

As a father or mother, will you just disappear from home or lock yourself inside your room without telling your children what actually is happening? The president is the father and leader of the nation.
Always put your nation first. Be patriotic.

They are paid to defend buhari, no matter what. They know they sound stupid, they know buhari is the worst of the worst but they'll defend him because of 30k monthly.

the problem is that, even the legislative body are not helping matter, the executive have arm twisted them. they can't even threaten the president with impeachment due to his silent. for God sake, this corona virus is a matter of national security

Its simple.

Fools are in majority in Nigeria.
