Tinubu seems to have angered Nigerians as many took to social media to slam him for uttering what is considered impunity against the South-Eastern region of the country, the Ndi Igbos.

The presidential campaign rallies of the All Progressives Congress (APC), candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu have continued to generate a mixed reaction from Nigerians following a series of blunders and unexpected speeches.
Tinubu’s speech at the APC presidential rally held in Enugu State today, 11th January has angered Nigerians as many took to social media to slam him for uttering what is considered impunity against the South-Eastern region of the country, the Ndi Igbos.
According to Tinubu, the Ndi Igbos will not be applauded for their hard work until he becomes president.
He said: “Nobody will give all of you any credit. You are working hard you are sweating now, we want you to sweat well for this party, until you deliver victory, until Bola Tinubu becomes president of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. We will not give you but a slight clap or a soaked slice of bread”.
