'Do not insult our President again', Daniel Wilson writes
Below is what the Ragamuffin star wrote on his Facebook page...
President Goodluck
Jonathan is Commander in Chief of the armed forces of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria, beyond his person, he is the symbol of the
Nigerian state. He is the embodiment of all our yearnings and
aspirations.
I believe that whatever your quarrel is with our
president's speech pattern, however disagreeable you find his policies,
to whatever extent you feel aggrieved by his leadership, and however
incompetent you find his entourage, see to it that you articulate your
sentiments and present your argument with civility and respect, and do
so with the passion of someone whose love of country is greater than the
resentment of its president.
And dare to go the second mile by
letting that same love of our country give you the moral fortitude to
defend the image of our president against those who wish to tarnish it
more than correct his shortcomings, even if you can't defend his
policies. And if you find this hard to do, remember that it is only hard
because it is the right thing to do.
