In what appears as a show off, Chairman of the Silverbird Group and Bayelsa East senator-elect, Ben Murray-Bruce, took to his Twitter handle to boast about his newly acquired KIA electric car saying fuel scarcity is least of his worries.
He wrote: “With the fuel scarcity, I feel for my people in Nigeria. That’s why I introduced the electric car. I drive it without bothering about fuel.”
Murray-Bruce, shortly after his victory at the polls had been vocal on the need to cause change in every facet of National life.
The Bayelsa- born entrepreneur gave a moving speech at 2015 Silverbird Man Of the Year award held in Lagos early this month. He lampooned the Nigerian political elites of failing the people. He vowed to push for bills in the interest of the people.
Meanwhile, some Nigerians have expressed doubts about the sincerity of the media mogul,
A Nigerian through a twitter simply identified, Ominet pictures, wrote, “Ben Bruce another Patrick Ogbayebon in the Nigeria senate we hope you will always do what u say not what others are doing”.
