"Whatever you want to push out, ensure it has common sense" - Yomi Fabiyi replies Yomi Fash-Lanso
Actor, Yomi Fash-Lanso reacted to criticism against Fayose, insisting that what is condemnable is the entitlement attitude of the committee and perhaps of very many sympathizers. In his words;
'Anyone
using the occasion of the largesse of the Jagaban to create an
unnecessary divisive and patronising narrative needs his or her head
examined for not only being mischievous but outrightly missing the
point. If Nollywood is not aware, it should be told that their members
are entitled to nothing extra beyond what every other Nigerians are
entitled to, and really they have not served the memory of Moji well."
Yomi Fabiyi, the Publicity Secretary for Olaiya's burial has now responded. Read his reply below.
"Some
people from experience they speak and some from experience they don't
speak. Whatever you want to push out, ensure it has CONSCIENCE AND
COMMON SENSE. IT MUST NOT BE MISSING IN YOUR PERSONALITY.
One
thing is standard, If someone travels abroad for holiday perhaps where
there is no family member(s) or friend(s) and he or she invariably dies.
And in this instance left behind a 2 month old baby. Common sense, it
becomes a clear case of emergency and a test of foreign policy of the
bereaved nationality. The Embassy if any must step in or relevant
government back home be informed for swift intervention. It is the right
thing to do.
Before
anyone questions the moral justification, economic impact or motive of
the concern person(s) on the need to notify the relevant government or
any public servant who can be of direct and swift help, I refer them to
Course in humanity titled "DUTY OF CARE 101"(Not everybody will pass it
anyway). The efficacy and mental theraphy returning the deceased body to
the family alone for proper burial and re-uniting the child with
his/her family will be immeasurable and by extention a great deal on our
national reputation and citizenship. Everything is not just about money
and politics.
It is a
rare case of emergency especially when an infant is involved. When you
have humane people in or out government who respond to such clarion
call, you begin to have more trust in public service and hope of reaping
the dividends of democracy.
It
is not in my habit to dignify everybody with a response but it do beat
my imagination if I see people who by one way or the other hold relevant
position of trust and care particularly where I belong but out of ego,
envy, hate and greed betray a simple act of respect and trust against
who they should care. Seeing them employ some coinage to further expose
their insensitivity... Anyway, when an association have people with
reckless ego and pride as administrators, they troll their members
publicly to score cheap hype. Intelligent people are never silent, but
trust me, they know when to be quiet.
Posterity will always reckon with those individuals who effortlessly offer kindness and not excuses. Humanity."
