On Friday, Lere Olayinka, the spokesman for FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, engaged in a heated exchange with ARISE Television anchor Rufai Oseni during a live broadcast. The confrontation occurred on The Morning Show, where Olayinka adamantly refused to respond to questions posed by Oseni. Olayinka contended that he preferred engaging only with individuals who demonstrated a more reasonable disposition.
The dispute appeared to be sparked by Oseni's allegations that certain people were referred to as "emudani." Oseni had previously asked Olayinka to clarify why Betta Edu, a former Minister of Humanitarian Affairs who faced corruption allegations, was included in the presidential campaign council. However, Olayinka refused to engage in any discussion with Rufai Oseni.
In a statement, Olayinka expressed his disappointment, saying, "I'm very sorry to say this, Oseni Rufai, I don't want to answer any question from you. I want to concentrate. I want this conversation to be among reasonable human beings, people who will not come and tell, who will not come and describe other people as 'emudani'."
