The daughter of a former governor of Oyo State, Victor Omololu Olunloyo, Kemi Omololu-Olunloyo, has stated that reactions by Nigerians to Bobrisky as a guest speaker in an event, were taken out of context and wondered what the hullabaloo is all about.
A New Media Citizens and Governance Conference kicked off in Abuja on Wednesday and Bobrisky, popularly known as “Africa’s First Male Barbie,” was slated to speak on Day 2 (Thursday) of the event.
But controversy now trails his participation in the conference as most Nigerians think it is absurd to have him (she) speak at the event as he will ‘mislead’ people.
President Muhammadu Buhari’s Personal Assistant on New Media, Bashir Ahmed and a member of Alder Consulting’s Executive Committee, Subomi Plumptre, withdrew from the conference following Bobrisky’s inclusion.
But in her opinion, the US trained journalist said Nigerians have been ignorantly programmed to hate and discriminate.
In an exclusive statement to DAILY POST, the ‘Snitch lady’ said, “A very fast rising and enterprising social media personality, Bobrisky has caused a seminar moderator from a respected consulting firm to quit her appearance for a new media seminar. Alder Consulting’s tweet “As an Executive Member of Alder, @subomiplumptre cannot participate in this event as it violates the brand values she’s a custodian of” is total garbage and just ruined that very brand. dailypost
