Filmmaker Jade Osiberu has come under fire for switching her support for President Tinubu over Peter Obi during the 2022 presidential race.
On September 28, 2024, Osiberu sent a funny remark on X, saying, “My to-do list is insanely large, but what have I been doing all day? Scrolling via social media releases dopamine. In T-Pain’s economy?! Wonderful!”
However, her tweet drew criticism, with user @okonkwoac resurrecting a 2022 post in which Osiberu criticized Peter Obi’s potential to expand Nigeria’s riches.
In that post, she wrote, “I like the idea of someone who is frugal and has integrity running Nigeria, but after hearing Peter Obi speak, I fear he’s the guy to trust with your money but not to multiply your wealth, and Nigeria needs the latter. We need a big thinker to dig us out of this economic hole.”
Her change in position has led to mixed reactions, with some users criticizing her for shifting her stance on the country’s leadership.
