In recent days, there has been significant social media buzz surrounding the new president of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu, following his return from a trip to Europe. Since arriving in Lagos, Tinubu has received a warm welcome and has been actively engaged in various activities. He was hosted by the governor of Lagos state, Babajide Sanwo-Olu, and was seen spending quality time with his grandchildren.
During his stay in Lagos, Tinubu met with Fashola, former lagos governor, Ambode. Amid that, the photo of the four of them has caught attention online especially after a man said that “With all due respect, OBJ has every reason to be jealous. How many leaders can boast of this?”.
Reacting to the photo, entertainment celebrity, Noble Igwe, quoted the tweet and replied with
“An army general, a two-time president, one of the most respected Nigerian is jealous because 4 ex-Lagos state governors are holding hands?
Some of us still respect you guys”
During his stay in Lagos, Tinubu had a meeting with prominent political figures such as Fashola, a former governor of Lagos, and Ambode. A photo capturing all four of them together gained significant attention online. In response to the photo, a man remarked that “With all due respect, OBJ has every reason to be jealous. How many leaders can boast of this?”
Entertainment celebrity Noble Igwe also reacted to the photo by quoting the tweet and offering his own perspective. He questioned the notion that a highly esteemed individual like OBJ, referring to Olusegun Obasanjo, a former army general and two-time president of Nigeria, would feel jealous because four ex-governors of Lagos state were seen together.
Igwe’s response highlighted the diverse accomplishments and positions held by the individuals in the photo. He acknowledged the significance of OBJ’s stature as an army general and a two-time president, emphasizing the respect he commands in Nigeria. However, Igwe implied that it would be unwarranted for OBJ to feel jealous merely because four former Lagos state governors were pictured together, holding hands symbolically.
