During a Channels Television interview, former aide Laolu Akande criticized Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike over his recent actions on social media. Wike's acts, according to Akande, are unworthy, and he should follow President Tinubu's lead.
Akande especially brought up a social media video of Wike dancing and putting on a winter jacket, which he said was inappropriate for a governor.
Laolu Akande voiced worry that Wike's actions would damage the government's and his own reputations. Citing President Tinubu's model behavior while in office, he counseled Wike to take a more dignified stance.
According to him, "If you look at the political dimensions, the political dispensation today, after the President, some will argue that Wike will be the most influential."
"But his behavior is becoming unbecoming. First of all, he goes on social media and wears this winter jacket. He's dancing like a clown, and you have his engagement of his, this broad with his own governor."
"Somebody should tell him that. Look at the trajectory of President Tinubu, whom you're serving. Did you ever find him behave in such a way that you're behaving publicly?"
