    It was with blithering indignation and consternation that I read the lot of some people that were recently tagged 'persona non grata' simply because they are destitutes, hence their deportation to their various states of origin. All the while I have been trying to comprehend the feasibility of deporting citizens of one sovereign nation from a part of their country to the other.

    Inasmuch as street begging is not encouraged and could constitute some nuisance. It is also true that some of these people feign one deformity or the other just to swindle unsuspecting victims of their hard earned cash. I still consider it as an infringement on one of  their fundamental human rights as provided in section 41 of  the 1999 constitution thus:  ''Every citizen of Nigeria is entitled to move freely throught Nigeria and to recide in any part thereof, and no citizen of Nigeria shall be expelled from Nigeria or refused entry thereto or exit therefrom''

Now what if all the elite decide to move to Lagos, would they also be deported like these beggars were?


   There is also no gainsaying that such act endangers our much touted national unity.


   I garnered last time that Lagos state government would restrain people from wearing bathroom slippers on the road. A totalitarian or fascist state?

      From the foregoing, I daresay, though with little prejudice, that the message Fashola is trying to relay is that  - if you are not rich, vamoose from Lagos.

Lets put ourselves in their shoes, considering that most of them really do need our help.

 Looking forward to hearing from you.

Shalom! Tak kia.
