Tinubu’s boy, Sam Omatseye under fire over Obi-tuary article

Journalist and Tinubu’s loyalist, Sam Omatseye has come under fire over his controversial article on Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of Labour Party.

Omatseye in the article title Obi-tuary, published on the back page of The Nation’s Newspaper, described Peter Obi as an IPOB supporter.

Her wrote, “Obi has turned out to be an excuse for even closet Biafrans to betray open emotions about Biafra without being accused of it. This includes intellectuals who did not show mercy to him while he reigned in Anambra as a pharisaic chief executive. It is like wearing a colour beneath another colour. Obi has become a shelter for both miscreants and activists of the crowd.”

Omatseye, however, disabled his Facebook comment page so people could not express themselves.

However, many Nigerians, especially members of the pen profession have frowned at the unprofessional article and asked Omatseye to apologise to Obi.
