Femi Adesina, has replied criticism from former Minister of Education, Dr. Oby Ezekwesili, by insisting he won’t respond to ‘wailing wailers’.
“I don’t respond to wailing wailers in their private capacities.” he said.
Dr. Ezekwesili had responded to a recent press release issued by Adesina where he condemned the public outrage targeted at President Buhari over the revelation that he asked the World Bank to prioritise its developmental programmes across the northern parts of Nigeria.
He said ignorant and mischievous people deliberately twisted the information to unfairly misrepresent the president’s intentions.
In her response, Ezekwesili had described the press release as indelicate way of handling a contentious issue.
She said, “The terrible indecorous press release by Nigeria worsens a fractious debate. This FG cannot be leaders of toxicity in public debate. Healthy debates are important for managing our diversity. The government of President Buhari should reign in his media team and retrain them to be effective.”
