President Bola Tinubu’s Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, criticized the nickname “T-Pain” coined by Nigerians frustrated by the economic situation, labeling it as mischievous.
He made this disclosure on a Channels Television program on Sunday.
Many have attributed the economic hardships to what they view as unfavourable policies introduced under Tinubu’s administration.
According to him, “the President is aware that the citizens are going through some difficulties,” but he is not aware that some persons have labelled him T-Pain on social media as “the President does not read what is on social media.”
He said: “Some people have also responded and called the president a different name. So, as far as I am concerned, it is a non-issue. Some people, out of mischief, just say somebody is a T-Pain. He (Tinubu) is not T-Pain.”
Onanuga earlier revealed Tinubu at any time didn’t appoint himself as the Petroleum Minister.
