The good intentions of the welfare aspirant as seen in the manifesto was marred by the English errors that misrepresented the message contained in the write-up.
The manifesto also lacked proper punctuation with the omission of words noticed in certain paragraphs.

His manifesto received backlash from Nigerians on social media who thought it was unexpected of someone who has seen the four walls of a university.

Man hilariously corrects English errors in British family's statement
Meanwhile, Legit.ng previously reported that a man had hilariously corrected English mistakes in the British Royal family's statement.
In a post he shared on his Facebook page, Njenga highlighted the 'errors' that were made in the statement, introducing the words he thought would be appropriate.
According to Njenga, the statement was faulty right from the header to its body, pointing out the unnecessary wordiness that had been carried therein.
His confidence to challenge the statement has left many tickled, given it was by the perceived owners of the English language.
He said:
"Dear Buckingham Palace, In my morning class, we discussed the difference between active and passive writing, and we used your statement for practice. I asked my students to rewrite it using active language. Here is what they did. Have a great day. Mwalimu Joshua Njenga."
