IS OKUPE PLANNING A CRUCIFIXION FOR OUR PRESIDENT? BY LOLU AKINWUNMI



Doyin Okupe

One of the President's aides took obsequiousness to another level; he just likened GEJ to Jesus Christ. How? The current burden carried by President Jonathan, can in his words, be likened to the same burdens Jesus carried, the sins of mankind, at the time of His death. What sacrilegious nonsense is this? What in heaven's name will people not do to keep their jobs? Is this what it now takes to manage a Presidential brand?

Now I am sure that Dr. Doyin Okupe should have remained in his ENT practice. Plus obviously he has not been inside a church in a loooooong time, and neither has he had any fellowship with his Bible in ages. Otherwise he would not casually and irreverently liken what Jesus went through to what President Jonathan is going through. Sycophancy we understand; but what do you call something like this? Honestly, our President does not need "image makers" like this. How can a man responsible for taking care of the President's image do so much to slur the same image?????

People close to President Jonathan should first alert him, then seriously warn him; he should not believe drips like this. He needs real people who will sit with him and truly analyse the legion of challenges this nation faces and how he can go about sorting them out. Sometimes such opinions may be painful, but he should analyse the truth content and if possible dialogue with such people. At the end of the day, the ultimate winner must be brand Nigeria and its people.

And by the way, I hope Okupe has prepared President Jonathan's mind for the pains and shame of crucifixion and Golgotha?
