BBNaija star Doyin David has caused a buzz online when a video of her stumbling over a fundamental question about who Nigeria’s Nobel laureate is surfaced online.

The interviewer began by questioning Doyin about the Inspector General of Police, to which she openly admitted not knowing the current officeholder.

However, the real surprise came when she was asked about Nigeria’s Nobel laureate.

In a moment of hesitation, Doyin drew a blank, revealing a lack of familiarity with renowned literary figure Wole Soyinka, who holds the prestigious honour.
