- Seyi Law has assured Nigerians that things will turn out better soon as he is in talks with the federal government.
- The comedian who relocated with his family to the UK in 2022 said he is currently in Abuja discussing changes.
- Seyi Law tried to assuage Nigerians anger, alleging that the cost of governance will reduce, while minimum wage will increase among other things.
Comedian Seyi Law has said he is currently in Abuja to speak with the Nigerian government about the economic hardship and ways to bring relief.
Seyi Law said this in an Instagram post on Tuesday, February 20, amid backlash over his support for President Biola Tinubu.
He wrote:
“My fellow Nigerians, I laugh not at your pains and I know there’s a lot of hardship right now. The fact that I supported a different candidate from you isn’t to spite you, but out of my belief that my candidate will achieve a better Nigeria. I am here with you in Nigeria, and I am not alien to your angers, which is justified. I swear I truly feel your pain, but I am optimistic. I can’t abandon a government that I voted for. I can only join them to bring relief to Nigerians.”
“I am currently in Abuja, and I am talking with some people in the government. My efforts might not mean much to you now, but I am praying it brings hope to your hearts again. The cost of governance will reduce, minimum wage will increase, and food affordability will improve.”
Speaking further, the 40-year-old said he supported Tinubu for Nigerians and not against them, adding that he made his choice and stands by it. Seyi Law added:
“I supported ASIWAJU BOLA AHMED TINUBU, not against you, but for YOU. I am not begging you to stop the abuse. I made my choice, and I stand by it. We shall overcome as a people and come out a GREATER NATION.”
