SECURITY UPDATE FROM BENIN GRA 🚨

For weeks now, I’ve been seeing two policemen permanently stationed at Golf Course Road Junction in GRA Benin, right beside the giant flex banner of President Tinubu.

At first, I thought there was a bank nearby.

Then I thought maybe a VIP lived around there.

Today, curiosity got the better of me, so I stopped to take a closer look.

My findings?

The officers were peacefully sleeping under the scorching Benin sun while guarding the banner. Not a government building. Not a school. Not a hospital.

A flex banner. 😭

Imagine explaining this to someone:

“What are you protecting, officer?”

“Mr. President’s photograph, sir.”

The same police force we complain is overstretched protecting lives and property is now apparently on anti-banner-vandalism duty.

To be fair, whoever keeps defacing that banner must have given somebody sleepless nights. Perhaps seeing the President’s face repeatedly altered just a stone’s throw from Government House became too embarrassing to ignore.

So now the banner has its own security detail.

At this rate, the next promotion in the police force may be:

Assistant Commissioner of Flex Banner Protection. 😂

But serious question:

Is this the new strategy for securing 2.5 million votes?

Because if campaign posters now require armed protection, maybe the votes need even more security. 🤔
