Wizkid Blasts Buhari’s Aide over Criticism on #EndSARS
Popular singer, Ayodeji Balogun otherwise known as Wizkid, has slammed Lauretta Onochie, the Special Assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on Social Media.
It all started when Wizkid joined the ongoing #EndSARS protest.
As many people took to social media to list allegations of extra-judicial killings, wanton arrests and dispossession of properties through physical assault and other intimidation tactics against Special Anti-Robbery Squad, a notorious department of the Nigeria Police Force; Wizkid also took to his social media page and called out the president for lack of negligence.
“Old man! Police/Sarz still killing Nigerian youth on a daily! Do something!
Nothing concern u for America! Face your country !!,” he wrote the president.
In a swift reaction to Wizkid’s post, Onochie stated that the music star is disrespectful for addressing Buhari as an old man.
“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,” she slammed Wizkid.
Responding to her, Wizkid wondered if the president wasn’t an old man, as he slammed Onochie for trying to digress from the pains young Nigerians are facing in the hands of SARS operatives.
“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!!” Wizkid wrote.
