Prime Minister on annual Vacation!

It was reported that Sir Abubakar Tafawa Balewa went on his only annual leave as Prime Minister of Nigeria in 1963 and decided to spend the vacation in his village. A British photo journalist came calling and was told the PM was on vacation. "To which country?" he asked, but was shocked to hear it was to his village. On getting to his village, there was no evidence to show that a BIG MAN was there. Everybody was busy with their chores. He met a farmer with his donkey carrying bales of sugarcane for the PM's home and he was shocked when the farmer said " I just left him a while ago. You will see him sitting on bare floor with his kids eating the sugarcane I gave them".
'He met them like that and took this photograph.Today, we have thieves and vagabonds in power who disturbs an entire city with siren and their empty noises of vanity.
Those who loot the treasury of an entire nation and still insult our common intelligence with embarrassing incompetence.
