The younger brother of former Ekiti State Governor, Ayodele Fayose, Isaac, has disagreed with the First Lady of Nigeria, Remi Tinubu, over her statement advising rich Nigerian artistes to help the poor in the nation.
It was reports that Tinubu had called on prominent Nigerian entertainers to establish foundations and use part of their earnings to assist vulnerable citizens.
She cited Senegalese-American singer Akon as an example of a successful entertainer involved in charity work.
Tinubu said, “I want to appeal to our young ones in the entertainment industry. I have mentioned it before, and I will use Akon, a music icon who does a lot of great charity work.
However, speaking on his 𝕏 account, Fayose questioned why the First Lady had previously asked state governors to buy brand-new cars for the All Progressives Congress (APC) women leaders in their states, arguing that the money could have been used to help the poor.
Fayose said, “I saw a video of Remi Tinubu advising Davido, Burna Boy and Asake to use their music money for charity.
“I disagree with you, ma. You’re the one who asked state governors to buy brand-new cars for APC women leaders in their states. That money could have been used to help people, too.”
