Popular Nigerian comedian Seyi Law has hit back at Shehu Abubakar, son of former Vice President Atiku Abubakar, after he referred to President Bola Tinubu as a “drug baron.”
Shehu made the remark while reacting to U.S. President Donald Trump’s comment describing Nigeria as a “disgraced country” amid allegations of Christian persecution. He wrote,
“Why are some upset that Donald Trump called us disgraceful? When they announced a drug baron as our President, what do you call that? Prideful?”
In response, Seyi Law defended Tinubu and took a swipe at Shehu’s father, saying,
“This is coming from someone whose father was called a thief by his principal and indicted as a money launderer in the US. Someone whose father deleted his handler’s tweet about the extra-judicial killing of Deborah. Na really wa.”
