Former Minister of Education, Oby Ezekwesili, has expressed support for the National Youth Service Corps, NYSC, member, Ushie Uguamaye, popularly called Raye for criticising the Tinubu-led administration.
The young lady was seen in the video vehemently condemning the worsening economic crisis in the country.
She described President Tinubu as a “terrible leader” who lacks the capacity to lead the nation.
Raye was, however, summoned by NYSC officials for questioning over her outburst, triggering outrage across the nation.
Wading into the controversy, Ezekwesili, in a post on her official X handle, noted that the “terrible” comment from the corps member was “awarded to President Tinubu on behalf of all sensible Nigerians who are managing severe hardship in the country.”
According to the former minister, the corps member “articulated her feedback in a manner to achieve maximum and effective delivery of the message to @NGRPresident, who runs the @nigeriagov and thus has a duty to her well-being.”
“After reeling out her many pieces of evidence, she said to @officialABAT: ‘You are such a terrible President.’ That is admirably bold, I must say.
“Truly and remarkably bold. To demand accountability from public leaders is both a constitutional right and duty of every citizen. Raye has just taught all citizens of Nigeria ‘Democracy 101.’ We all better learn.”
