Blemish: The Little Oil In Hon. Nilo’s Dress By Mustapha Abdullateef

Reputation is for time; character is for eternity as stated by J. B. Gough. The little oil in Hon Abdulazeez Oluwanilo‘s dress; the young politician whose primary functions was to serve the heterogeneous people of Ilorin South, Kwara State as promised has been defamed and the scandal was to discolour his beautiful dress.

However, those unreasonable uptakes about him were to slander his reputation built in donkey years with myriads articles beseeched by the masquerades around him “oil in his dress”.

Undeniably, the ant that is eating and destroying the vegetable is right beneath the vegetable. Those he considered as his (trustworthy) are humans when the day is young but became masquerade when the moon travelled to its eave.

What a traitor in a friend cloth!

No one disputes the fallacies in the disguise of criticism which has for years resulted in identity in the Nigeria politics. Yes, criticism is an expression of disapproval of something on the basis of perceived faults but mustn’t defame one’s characters. Any critic is advised to connect his tongue with his brain or let his fingers type not what will put him/her in detention.

Funnily enough, an Islamic cleric Mukadam Awal Sakama that was reportedly beaten to coma for rejecting a gesture from Hon. Nilo has disputed the barbaric slander which directly stated the aforesaid as defamation of character. Gush!

The victim has cleared himself and appealed people to disregard the message which has gone viral on social media. In said: “Sallamu Alaikum to you all I want to clear myself that all you have read on social media was not like that. I’m fine and smooth with sound health, please for Allah’s sake don’t listen or mind them…”. What do we call this, politics?

Well, there are two types of defamation; libel and slander. Libel is defamation in a permanent form, it is the most common form that is written or printed words contained in. For instance, newspaper or in any permanent form if contained in a painting.

In addendum, the defamation Law 1961, section 3, and the defamation Law 1959 section 3, defamatory words contained in a radio broadcast are also within the ambit of the sections, which define ‘words’ as including ‘pictures, visual images and other methods. Perhaps, this isn’t practised as expected, perhaps yes.

The best index to a person’s character is how he treats people who can’t do him any good, and how he treats people who can’t fight back. – Abigail Van Buren. In spite of the fact that Hon. Abdulazeez Hassan Oluwanilo has been dancing without music due to the political position; he has never reduced his generosity nor failed to serves his people as promised. Unless the little oil in Honorable’s dress is wash away, therein, the masquerade shall walk naked in the light and then his victory is certain.
