Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Bola Ahmed Tinubu has told his supporters that it is insulting to mention star actress and PDP’s Lagos gubernatorial running mate Funke Akindele in his presence.
At one of his rallies in Lagos, his supporters had sung a campaign song, praising Funke Akindele and comparing her to Mr Tinubu’s anointed candidate Mr Sanwo-Olu.
“Who is Funke Akindele before Sanwo-Olu of Lagos? She is an ant,” the supporters sang.
“Don’t even bother to mention her name in my presence. It is an insult. It is disrespectful,” Mr Tinubu replied disdainfully.
Irritated by the comparison, Bola Tinubu warn them never to mention the actress’s name in his presence.
Mr Tinubu is backing incumbent Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu of APC for reelection.
