The real is dead, only a simulacrum parades as the virtual reality because the opposite of the real is unreal and Jubril is as real as a human can be. The cyborg manifesto of Harraway applies along with The Revenge of the Crystal by Baudrillard. The principle of evil is dominant over the reality principle because evil is more elastic than reality. The question is no longer what is true or false but what is good and what is evil. Nigerians should be debating the evil policies of successive representatives of the lumpen bourgeoisie in power. With millions of voters, let them challenge themselves to elect good leaders even if they happen to be cyborgs. Is Trump the real Donald that his twitter handle promises or is he a dummy manipulated by Putin and Prince MBS?

The only reason why this stupid rumour persists is because this is election time. Elections in Nigeria are not based on issues!
