Minister of Common Sense, Ben Murray- Bruce is making sense today

Senator Ben Murray-Bruce, known for his outspokenness and forthrightness, took to Twitter, to speak some common-sense.
In a series of tweets, where he made scathing comments about the Nigerian elite, Murray-Bruce, the self appointed supervisor of the Department of Common Sense, made a lot of sense.
It’s hard to disagree with Senator Bruce today.

WHY DO OUR ELITE BEHAVE THIS WAY? WHY DO WE CLIMB THE LADDER OF SUCCESS THAT WAS FREELY GIVEN TO US & THEN REMOVE IT WHEN WE GET TO THE TOP?
