Ibe’s comment quickly garnered attention on social media, with Nigerians reacting with a mix of amusement and skepticism.
@mbatnproperties said: “Some of these APC leaders are going insane, they can’t tell the incompetent Tinubu that is a failure.
“Nigerians since the reasons will advertise not to vote for Tinubu, he got nothing to offer , Tinubu only good in Propaganda and lies, he did nothing in Lagos for 8 years.”
@dogo_audu said: “I saw him on Tuesday night in a korope from Iyana ipaja to ayobo, he hushed me from screaming Asiwaju TPain by bribing me with a 40k naira 50kg bag of Ric.”
@JohnEkerel said: “I saw him in gwagwalada Mega Screen buying lush and Dush.”
