How to identify hate fed and emotional being is not hard.
From their idiotic post, just as yours one would know.

I won't go emotional with you, I ask you again to tell me that politician in your poverty ravaged region that Matches Tinubu politically

Tinubu is nothing, he is not qualified to have a conversation with legitimately hardworking Funke Akindele. He can dine with MC Oluomo, and feel big among Atiku levels of reasoning, but will understand northern on the level of Ivy League and Harvard trained personalities.

Tinubu is nothing.

The presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Bola Tinubu came under heavy criticism for denigrating the deputy governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Lagos State, Funke Akindele.

Tinubu had on Wednesday told his supporters that it is insulting to mention Akindele’s name in his presence.


Tinubu stated this at the Lagos APC secretariat on Acme Road in Ogba during the party’s caucus meeting.

His supporters during the meeting had sung a campaign song, describing Akindele as a political ‘ant’ compared to Tinubu’s anointed candidate, Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu.

“Who is Funke Akindele before Sanwo-Olu of Lagos? She is an ant,” the supporters sang.

“Don’t even bother to mention her name in my presence. It is an insult. It is disrespectful,” Tinubu replied disdainfully.


But soon after the video of the event emerged online, netizens couldn’t help but call out Tinubu for his hypocrisy.

Commenting on Tinubu’s statement, a Twitter user wrote, “The Fact That Tinubu Is Vexed At The Mention Of Funke Akindele’s Name, It Means Whatever PDP, Jandor And Funke Are Doing In That Lagos, They Should Double It, E Dey Touch Amoda.�”, While another said, “That Jagaban denigrating Funke Akindele. A woman who struggled from the grace to stardom? Who is Seyi Tinubu pls? This is an insult in womenfolks to be honest and this man doesn’t deserve our votes.

One social media user even asked whether Tinubu will have said this if Akindele was contessting under the APC platform . The comment read, “Tinubu said it’s disrespectful to mention Funke Akindele in his presence; Really? But I bet it won’t be disrespectful if she’s contesting on the APC platform or singing him praises. His statement reeks of pr!de, which isn’t surprising cos this is someone who feels very entitled..”


Another Twitter user said:” It is very disrespectful to mention funke Akindele but MC Oluomo is a goal.”

Under fire for what? Whoever doesn't want to be dragged shouldn't go into politics. And what Tinubu said is correct. Who is Funke where Sanwo Olu operates? Democracy is a leveler... otherwise...

I might not be Tinubu supporter but I don't see anything bad in what he said,,we all know Funke is still a child compared to Tinubu, infact Funke is non-existing and a nonentity when it. comes to politics in Nigeria, compared to Tinubu that have vast knowledge about politics and when Tinubu joined politics, Funke was still in primary school.

Where is the fire?

What I saw there are two scallywags namely Oguche and Nkem who are more interested in what happens in Lagos than their desolate villages.

Bola Ahmed Tinubu and Funke Akindele have nothing in common. Tinubu is a seasoned public administrator while Funke plays role in home videos for a price.

So they are poles apart and they should stop mentioning her name in the presence of the great Asiwaju of Nigeria.

Funke is no where close to Senator Remi Tinubu, not to talk of the Jagaban of Africa.


Guy, you are working well. Whatever they are paying you is not a waste. He asked "where is the fire"?? grin grin

Only unreasonable and Political novice will criticize Tinubu for that statement.

Funke is an actress not a politician, it's an Insult to mention (be referring to) her as a threat even in presence of Lagos ward councilor.

But Desmond idiot is a politician because he's in APC
The criminal ancestor is very uncouth. God forbid BATing! Very unpresidential and very entitled.

I can see why our country are the way it is.

Someone aspiring for the position of the number one president should be humble and have tactics while dealing with issues.

What happens to a sensible comment like:
" Funke is a young and hardworking lady I love her spirit and I encourage our youths to imbibe such. However I strongly believe that she is inexperienced politically to run a state let alone a state like Lagos state. But she should keep getting involve in politics some day she and her running mate will acquire the required experience to run Lagos and when that time comes we as Lagosian will do the needful. "

Sometimes what you need is just common sense.
