Buhari’s Aide, Lauretta Onochie And Wizkid Exchange Words On Twitter

President Muhammadu Buhari’s Special Assistant on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie, and singer, Wizkid, have engaged in a war of words on twitter. Things escalated between these two after Wizkid had referred to President, Major Gen. Muhammadu Buhari (retd.) as an ‘old man’.

It all started when the President sent his get well soon message to the President of the United States of America, Donald Trump over his ill health.

Wizkid said, “Donald Trump is not your business! Old man! Police/Sarz still killing Nigerian youth on a daily! Do something! Nothing concern u for America! Face your country!!”

Onochie replying to this, said that the singer exhibited crass ignorance, insensitivity and childishness with the way he addressed the president as an old man and further called Wizkid a ‘dumb kid’.

She tweeted,

“Its not disrespectful to call anyone old. Its the way and manner Ayo Balogun addressed the President that leaves a sour taste in the mouth. He exhibited crass ignorance, insensitivity and childishness. But hey, he’s a #DumbkidNotWhizKid. When he grows up, he might learn respect.”

Well Wizkid didn’t let this slide but took to his defense and responded that he was simply demanding for good governance in his country and age has nothing to do with it.

“Lol a 77-year-old man is not young ma. You are a woman and a mother and kids are getting killed by police/sars and this is all you have to say? shame on you!!! shame on you!! I am a father and age has nothing to do with demanding for better governance in my country!!”
