PRESIDENTIAL NOSTALGIA

Saturday, May 30 was the first Environmental Sanitation Day after the swearing in of President Muhammadu Buhari and the elected governors on May 29. Though only a handful of states formally cancelled the exercise and declared the day free of movement restriction to allow full participation of Nigerians in all activities lined up to celebrate the inaugurations, there was free movement throughout the day, as the inauguration activities would not have effectively held if there had been restriction of movement.

And President Buhari finally moved into Also Rock Presidential Villa on Sunday, June 21. Saturday, June 27 was the first Environmental Sanitation Day the President would witness inside Aso Rock. Certainly, the President’s busy schedule for that day would have been altered to make room for the 3-hour movement restriction. Perhaps too, a few members of his domestic staff might have resumed late, having participated in the exercise and having observed the restriction. With the movement restriction reflecting on his schedule and with no official function within the Villa and outside for the 3 hours between 7am and 10am, the thought would definitely have crossed the President’s mind that it was his own making, having enacted the law 31 years before. Then perhaps a self-satisfactory smile had lit up his face, knowing it is a legacy he returned to meet among the many he left behind.
