Nigerians React To Remi Tinubu's Election Day Statement About Igbos

Share This


Nigerians have taken to social media to react to Senator Remi Tinubu’s statement that Igbo people living in Lagos could not be trusted.

She said this after casting her vote in the ongoing Gubernatorial and State House of Assembly elections at Polling Unit 034, Falomo Police Barracks IV, Ikoyi.

Addressing an Igbo man, Charles Nnamani, in pidgin, Tinubu claimed that the Igbo people resident in the state did not cast their vote for President Muhammadu Buhari during the presidential election.

But the physically-challenged Nnamani told her that he voted for Buhari.

Responding, Mrs. Tinubu, who is a Delta State indigene, said, “How will I know? You Igbo, we don’t trust you anymore.”

However, Nigerians have taken to social media to express divergent opinions on the statement.

So the Tinubu clan only trust Igbos if they vote @MBuhari? Why are we a democracy? Tinubu and his family should just crown Buhari king of Nigeria. Igbos create wealth and value and pay their taxes. But that is not enough. Unless they vote as Tinubu wants, they can’t be trusted!

Some tricks we don't know
This woman is Remi Tinubu
She is a Pastor
She claims she is serving God
She will do and say anything to make her husband hold on to power
She doesn't speak for all Yoruba people
Igbos should be calm

I'm an Igbo man..
What Remi Tinubu said was playful and teasing.
It's similar to a gf calling the boyfriend "big head".
It's not to be taken serious.
She even sat down with the crippled man
Don't politicise everything
Use your sense and leave hatred.#INEC #Buhari #elections

Please as a Yoruba, I denounce the words of Remi Tinubu... People can do anything to hold on to power.. I urge our Igbo Brothers and Sisters in Lagos to remain calm and don't let anything escalate... One Nigeria
