In an Instagram post, she wrote, I am still standing on Daddy Seyi Tinubus mandate.

Her post elicited mixed reactions, with some commenters accusing her of being insensitive to the plight of Nigerians, who are facing hardship as a result of President Tinubu's poor economic policies.

People are struggling - hungry and frustrated because the economy is tough. If people react negatively, its understandable, and honestly, you would have brought it upon yourself. No one is saying you shouldnt support your candidate, but this post feels like a mockery of Nigerians. Maybe youre not affected by the current economic hardship, but many people are. You can be loyal to your candidate without posting it here.
