Many Nigerians have taken to social media in shock and condemnation of what seems like a bizzare reaction by the Ebonyi State Governor, David Umahi, in a banquet honoring President Muhammadu Buhari on his visit to the state. Umahi’s exact words are as follows:
“When I was in the villa to see Mr. President, a woman struggled to see me. She told me that she is from Afikpo and that she cooks
for President Buhari and his wife. What more love and trust do we need in Ebonyi State?” — Governor David Umahi
This strange statement by Governor Umahi received the following reactions by Nigerians:
“Shame to you Gov Umahi. After killing our youths he becomes your father. Thats why you cooked up one rubbish title and gave him.”, said one Christiana O.
“David Umahi political prostitution is high class”, Chima. reacted
Godfrey A. had this to say, “I pity the igbos…..what a wrong time to be Igbo or born as an Igbo man”
The embattled governor is still recovering from backlash for endorsing President Buhari for a 2nd term last week, an action
condemned by both people from his region and members of his political party, PDP.
