The personal assistant to President Muhammadu Buhari on social media, Lauretta Onochie and popular artiste and multiple-award winning singer, Wizkid have engaged in a heated war of words on Twitter.
Recall that Wizkid on Sunday slammed Buhari for wishing Donald Trump a “quick recovery from COVID-19” amid the security tension in Nigeria.
The ‘Ojuelegba crooner’ had taken to his Twitter page to express his annoyance at the President, describing him as an “old man” who should be paying attention to issues in the country rather than in the United States.
Donald trump is not your business!
Old man! Police/Sarz still killing
Nigerian youth on a daily! Do something!
Nothing concern u for America!
Face your country !! https://t.co/thxmoYb7VE— Wizkid (@wizkidayo) October 4, 2020
Wizkid reaction came after a video showing a man allegedly gunned down in Delta by operatives of the police unit went viral which renewed protests against the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS).
Reacting on Tuesday night, Onochie described the ‘Fever’ crooner as a “dumbkid”, who exhibited crass ignorance and childishness in the way he addressed the preasident.
“Its not disrespectful to call anyone old. Its the way and manner Ayo Balogun addressed the President that leaves a sour taste in the mouth. He exhibited crass ignorance, insensitivity and childishness. But hey, he’s a #DumbkidNotWhizKid When he grows up, he might learn respect,” she said.

In a swift reply, Wizkid slammed Onochie for making such utterance about age, saying she should be “ashamed of herself.”
The singer also wondered why the media aide would resort into name-calling when he was only demanding for a better governance in his country.
