5 months ago
So Babafemi Ojudu don blow fire for Minister of Foreign Affairs Ambassador Bianca Odumegwu-Ojukwu over that video wey trended on Friday. The clip show the minister celebrating with Nigerian inmates inside AbaSamuel Prison in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, after signing a bilateral Prisoner Transfer Agreement. The prisoners were singing praises to President Tinubu for the deal.
Ojudu posted on his Facebook page on Sunday and asked if the minister was celebrating criminality. He said, "What message are we sending to ourselves and to the world? If the objective was to negotiate the transfer of Nigerian prisoners back home, could that not have been done with dignity, sobriety, and a clear sense of the gravity of the situation? Prison is not a place of celebration."
Na wa o. I get the compassion part but this one dey send wrong message to people wey dey hustle legitimately for this country. Wetin be your take? The minister meant well or she overdid am?
