The Special Assistant on Communications to former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, Phrank Shaibu, has claimed that the design on President Bola Tinubu’s cap has come to symbolize political deception and disappointment for his supporters.
Shaibu made this statement in a release titled “De-cap-itated!” issued on Monday.
He noted that the cap, once highly coveted, has now become a liability for merchants who sell it.
He said, “The defeat of the German army led to the swastika becoming an item never to be displayed anymore in the public space.
“So, too, has the Emilokan caps become relics of political deception and disappointment in the wardrobes of those who used to wear it.
“Even the once-eager vendors who proudly displayed the Emilokan caps at bustling traffic lights and strategic street corners now find themselves burdened by them.
“What was once a prized symbol of political fervour has become an unwanted relic, gathering dust as no one bothers to ask for them anymore.
“The caps, once seen as a beacon of hope and power, have now turned into silent reminders of promises unfulfilled, leaving these sellers with a product that has lost its allure and meaning.”
