Age Has Nothing To Do With Demanding For Better Governance In My Country - Wizkid Replies Buhari's Aide




Nigerian singer, Ayo Balogun, popularly known as Wizkid, on Tuesday responded to a statement by the Special Assistant to President Muhammdu Buhari on Social Media, Lauretta Onochie, where she described him as a dumb kid for addressing President Muhammadu Buhari the way he did in a tweet.

Onochie had in a tweet described Wizkid as being ignorant, insensitive and behaving like a kid for attacking the president over SARS brutalities and addressing him as ‘old man’.

However, Wizkid responding to Onochie on Tuesday night, told her that age has nothing to do with demanding for better governance in the country and she should be ashamed of herself for making such utterance.

“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 a better governance in my country!!”
