David Hundeyin Uncovers Plan to Offer $1,000 Grant to Journalists to Tag Maiduguri Flooding As Result of ‘Climate Change’
Hundeyin made this known in a post he shared on his official X handle on Tuesday.
Hundeyin disclosed that the Maiduguri flooding was never an issue of climate change rather a case of neglected maintenance by the Nigerian government of the Alau Dam which has suffered structural damage years back.
He further rained curse on any journalist who will throw caution into the air and dive into such offer to the detriment of the Maiduguri residents.
His post reads, “You just know there are 8 or 9 “Climate NGOs” with Africa offices in Nairobi currently falling over themselves to offer $1,000 grants to some stupid Nigerian journalists to report the flooding in Maiduguri as “climate change,” tying in an argument against Africa using its own fossil fuels to industrialise.
For the record, here are the facts: this disaster was caused by the collapse of Maiduguri’s 40 year-old Alau Dam, a dam constructed to shield Maiduguri from seasonal flooding along the Ngadda river basin. This dam already suffered structural damage due to high seasonal rainfall in 1992, 1994 and 2012, and never received the required maintenance to put it back into ideal operational shape.
“In other words, this is an infrastructure problem, not a “climate” problem. It is a problem that will be solved by developing more capacity to build and adequately maintain infrastructure like Europe does – capacity that comes with cheap energy and industrialization like Europe did.
“If you are the oloriburuku bastard journalist in Abuja that is preparing to submit that $1,000 grant application to write nonsense for white people and hurt your people in the process, you will contract untreatable genital herpes and suffer until you d*e” Hundeyin slammed.
