The Presidency has reacted to a statement by Nollywood actress, Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde describing Nigeria as ‘hellish’ under President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration.
Omotola had taken to her Twitter page to slam Buhari and Vice President Yemi Osinbajo over poor leadership and lack of money circulation, coupled with killings across the nation. Omotola wrote:
“The Country Under your watch is Hellish! @ProfOsinbajo @MBuhari @NGRPresident
“The lack of Money in circulation, Now coupled with the Continuous Assault n Killings by Uniformed men’ll make this Country implode!!!
“It’s Unbearable! Do something!Insecurity! Fear n Desperation everywhere/”
In reaction, the personal assistant on new media to President Buhari, Bashir Ahmad, in a tweet, stated that those who were making money legitimately have no complaint about the current state of the nation, and will never describe Nigeria as “Hellish”. He wrote:
“Madam Omotola those who are working for CLEAN money are not complaining and will never refer our dear country as ‘hellish’. In Kano State alone, from 2015 to 2018, no fewer than 200 medium and small scale rice milling centres emerged. For that, billions circulated among millions.”
