Seun Kuti reacts to old tweet praising Tinubu because of Buhari

Singer Seun Kuti has come out to defend an old tweet dug out by social media users hailing Tinubu or ushering President Buhari into power.

Earlier this morning, a screenshot from Seun Kuti’s Twitter page dated as far back as 2015, April popped up singing songs of praise to APC candidate, Bola Buhari for bringing President Buhari into power.

Reacting to the dug-out tweet from his page, Seun Kuti has taken to his Instagram story to lambast those who reshared his old tweet saying that they are fools because they could not have identified his tweet as a sarcastic post. “Yes I thanked Asiwaju for removing Jonathan who I despised with a passion. So what! Is that the same as Performing for them like a monkey? Shey una no read the tweet finish. After thank you we say Wetin? ALUTA CONITUA. THE STRUGGLE CONTINUES And we ain’t ever stopped. Lol.

Old tweet of Seun Kuti praising Tinubu for ushering Buhari into power surfaces

Netizens have dug out an old tweet of Seun Kuti praising (APC) presidential candidate Bola Tinubu for ushering President Buhari into power.

Recall that in the late hours of yesterday afternoon, NigezieXtreme reported how artist Peter Okoye of P-Square music duo clashed with Seun Kuti after the latter described the former governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi as an ‘Opportunist’. According to Seun Kuti, Peter Obi switched to the Labour Party after losing to the PDP and that he cannot save Nigeria. This comment from Seun Kuti did not sit well with Peter Okoye who ended up dragging the singer adding that he has erased his father’s history. In the midst of the online banter, some Nigerians have dug up a 2015 tweet where Seun praised Tinubu for bringing Buhari to power. The tweet read: I thank Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu for bringing this change. Aluta Continua.

Why I won’t leave any inheritance for my children — Pres. Buhari

The president of the federal republic of Nigeria, Muhammadu Buhari, speaks on the reason he would not be leaving his children with inheritance.
Speaking in Daura, Katsina State, on Wednesday, July 13, the president emphasized on the need to impact children intellectually other than material-wise.

Buhari implored parents to inculcate values in their children, respect for constituted authorities and living a purposeful life through continuous education.
In his words,
“I was locked up for more than three years, after leading the country. At that point, I realised and I told my children that your net worth is what is in your head, not what you have acquired in life.
My focus has always been on training the children to be relevant wherever they find themselves. I told my children, particularly the girls, that they can only get married after getting first degree.
They already know that I am not leaving anything for anyone to inherit. My greatest legacy to the children is to ensure they are properly educated.
We should ensure the children get proper education. The knowledge they acquire should not be towards getting government jobs. We don’t have jobs in government anymore. With technology, governments are becoming more smaller, nimble and efficient.
Emphasis should now be on skills acquisition and competence in creation and deployment of technology. During the Covid-19, we asked all level 12 downward to stay at home, and surprisingly the systems worked effectively.”

ASUU: “Enough is enough” – Buhari tells striking lecturers

President Muhammadu Buhari has told leaders of the Academic Staff Union of Universities (ASUU), to reconsider their position on the continued strike as it will have generational consequences on families and the future development of the country.
The president, who informed the striking lecturers that enough is enough, noted that the future of the country rests on the quality of educational institutions and education.

Reports say Buhari made this remark when he received some governors of the All Progressives Congress (APC), legislators and political leaders at his residence on Monday.
While assuring that the government understands ASUU’s position, Buhari requested that negotiations should continue, with students in lecture halls.
He was quoted as saying: “I hope that ASUU will sympathise with the people on the prolonged strike. Truly, enough is enough for keeping students at home. Don’t hurt the next generation for goodness sake.
“Students from Nigerian universities will be faced with the challenge of competing with others in a highly connected and technology-driven work space, and keeping them at home only deprives them of time, skill and opportunities to be relevant on the global stage.
“Colonial type education was geared towards producing workers in government. Those jobs are no longer there. Our young people should get education to prepare them for self-employment. Now education is for the sake of education.
“Through technology we are much more efficient. We should encourage our children to get education, not only to look for government jobs.”
