Protest: VeryDarkman replies Tinubu’s daughter

Social media critic, Martin Otse, famously known as VeryDarkMan, replied the Folashade, the daughter of President Bola Tinubu, who cautioned Nigerian youths against protesting.

Recall that Folashade in a viral video, had earlier warned against joining the planned nationwide protest, urging Nigerians to allow her father three years in office before evaluating his performance.

Reacting to the statement in a video released on Monday, VeryDarkMan expressed strong disapproval of Folashade’s remarks.

He accused her of overlooking the severe economic challenges Nigerians are facing under Tinubu’s administration.

According to the social media critic, the current administration’s first year has been marked by economic hardship and a significant rise in fuel prices.

“Did you realize that people will not be complaining if your father’s first year in office was not the worst in Nigeria’s presidential history?” VeryDarkMan queried.

He urged Folashade to persuade her father to address the growing economic challenges and avoid worsening the situation.

In the same vein, he referenced Tinubu’s past opposition to fuel price increases during the administration of former President Goodluck Jonathan, suggesting that similar protests are warranted now due to the current government’s policies.

He condemned any potential violence associated with the protests, but emphasized the importance of standing up for economic rights.

“Warn your father, tell him that Nigerians are suffering. Talk to Daddy for us. Did you warn your dad when he went to protest against Goodluck Jonathan when he raised the fuel price from N65 to N87? The only thing I won’t approve of is that the protesters are violent. Stand for your rights, Nigerians.

“Protest, but don’t loot. Look at the prices of things. Fuel is N700 plus, and it is still not available. See the queues in gas stations. You can’t increase the price of things, and they will still not be available,” he added.
