According to Punch, he stated that stomach infrastructure goes beyond just giving people food and money – It is also about getting close to the “common man.” As a result, visiting bars every Friday enables him develop close bonds with his people.
“I go to beer parlour on Fridays to stay with the common men there. Governance is not church; it is about diverse characters and you must relate with them as such.
Christmas is coming, why do people go out of their ways to be shopping or doing other things if it is not just to make people merry?
So, I’m grooming chicken, buying rice, yams, plantain, and the rest of them. I am sure if I give them to families during the festive period, they will be happy. So, stomach infrastructure is a way of life,” he said.

Shell "dismisses the suggestion that it has knowingly continued to use a pipeline that is not safe to operate," it told the BBC . The emails, letters and internal reports submitted to a court in London show that senior Shell employees were concerned before the spill that Shell's pipelines in the area had reached the end of their lives and needed replacing to avoid danger to lives, the environment and the economy.
