Maverick singer Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, has urged Nigerian leaders to always remember that power is transient.
Using former Rivers State governor Chibuike Amaechi as an example, Charly Boy recounted an encounter at the Abuja International Airport where the former Minister had to wait in the same departure lounge as him.
Writing on X, the activist stated:
“Time & Tides; Nigerian Mumu Leaders; Once your reign is over:
“The hypocrites are gone. The sycophants are gone. The bootlickers are gone.
“The MOPOL security men are gone. DSS are withdrawn. Soldiers are re-assigned. FAAN staff no longer shake or shiver at your presence.
“You no longer have access to Rivers State aircraft. 9. You cannot afford to charter an aircraft from your personal income.
“Then Amaechi has to stay in the same departure lounge in Abuja with me (an Alagbado man), waiting for an aircraft that was delayed for 1 hour.
“Whatever position you occupy presently that makes you believe that you are superior to your colleagues, please remember that it is temporary. Power is transient.”
