On Monday, the Senator representing the Bayelsa East constituency, Ben Murray-Bruce was in the middle of such dramas as he took time to give smart answers to folks trying to troll him on twitter.

The Senator had tweeted about the about the failing aviation sector.

He tweeted: Just spoke with the head of an airline and Nigerian airlines are not servicing planes because they can’t get forex. Pilgrims get forex at special rates while airlines can’t get it to buy parts and are flying planes that could drop. Right now in Nigeria, even aviation fuel isn’t available. Airlines are forced to cut corners and put lives at risk. Regulators license airlines with one plane. The planes is overworked without access to necessary service and parts. Airlines are forced to source for forex on the parallel market. They are forced to cut corners and risk lives. What is happening in our aviation sector is an emergency. We mustn’t wait for the next accident to take storm. We must show concern for those who don’t have access to Presidential Jets and Private Jets. Human lives are at risk.”

Some folks on tweeter had criticized him for the comments but he had smart answers for them. See screenshots below.
