Speaking during an appearance on Arise TV’s News Night, Onokpasa described the appointment as a “betrayal” to Tinubu’s loyal supporters.
“Our dear and beloved President stabbed all of us, his staunch supporters, in the back with this absolutely ridiculous, meaningless, and just inexplicable appointment,” Onokpasa stated.
He dismissed claims that the appointment was a strategic move, branding it “stupidity” instead.
Onokpasa also expressed frustration over what he perceived as the president’s disregard for his supporters, stating, “Not all his supporters want an appointment. It’s just the insult that our president seems to take us (his supporters) for granted.”
