Media mogul and senator-elect, Ben Murray Bruce has reveled why he is fighting the elite.In an interview with Vanguard, he said
“I am fighting against the elite. Definitely, I am fighting them. When
they drink that champagne that can educate a child, they should know
that I am fighting them. You don’t fly a first class in government while
in your private life, you fly economy. I am totally against their
lifestyles.“We need to enact laws that favour the masses. The biggest
problem in Nigeria today is that our consumption is on the high while
production is low. Our leaders in APC, PDP, Labour, APGA and others are
all guilty of one thing, which is consuming the resources of the
majority of Nigerians.Imagine a situation where governors fly private
jets, commissioners drive a twenty million naira car. Commissioners
flying first class, living like kings while the state cannot pay salary
of its workers. If a commissioner can have three or four policemen
around him, who is policing the poor where they are being raped, maimed,
robbed and killed?The question is what do we have for the masses? There
are one hundred million people living on two dollars a day, in some
places, the unemployment rate is 80 0r 90% and then you have governors
living a champagne life. Small wonders in some places, thieves steal
N50, N200, fishing nets and destroy the lives of the people”.
