During a visit to the Delta State School of Nursing in Agbor, Nigerian First Lady Senator Remi Tinubu faced unexpected backlash from students who openly rejected an attempt to honor her. The incident occurred while she was advocating for free HIV/AIDS treatment programs across the country.
In a speech to the Delta State Traditional Rulers Council, Tinubu emphasized the importance of raising awareness about HIV/AIDS, especially among youth, and called for support against health issues like female genital mutilation. However, a viral video captured the moment when the Master of Ceremony attempted to lead a song praising her, to which the students humorously responded, “Na your mama be this ooooo.”
The incident highlights a growing dissatisfaction with the federal government, particularly towards President Bola Tinubu’s economic policies, which critics claim have exacerbated hardship in the country.
