A senior government official has come under fire for what those in the know see as gross misuse of public resources. The man is said to have engineered a foreign trip that he disguised as official. However, his intention was to attend his child’s graduation ceremony. Observers are also wondering why some government notables keep posting their private content on social media, even after the Gen Z storm over shows of opulence by certain leaders that nearly pushed the country to the brink.

The CEO of a certain parastatal is alleged to have served a hot slap on the finance director after the money man questioned the manner in which the books of account were being padded to exaggerate the state firm's profits. The chief executive officer then forced the humiliated finance boss out of the boardroom. The agency went on to declare significant growth in profits in the last one year in what was said to be a major milestone. An insider, however, says it is only a matter of time before the CEO is exposed and hits a dead end.

A loose-tongued legislator from one of the opposition constituencies is a troubled man after his party entered a political agreement with the ruling coalition. The MP, who hitherto allegedly spent all his time attacking senior government officials from his community who were picked to serve various positions in government, is allegedly unable to eat the proverbial humble pie and warm up to the people he used to roundly insult. He recently skipped a development meeting in the region because it was chaired by a senior government official he used to shower with expletives.
