You Deserve Death, Tinubu’s Aide tells Corps Member who called Tinubu ‘terrible’

By Admin

Mr. Temitope Ajayi aide to President Bola Tinubu has raised serious dust after suggesting that a corps member who called his principal terrible leader deserve death penalty.

Temitope Ajayi, while writing on his official Facebook page, said Ushie Uguamaye, a serving corps member in Lagos State, should be executed by hanging or firing squad for calling Mr. Tinubu a “terrible president” in a TikTok video.

In the video that triggered the scathing attack, Uguamaye expressed frustration over the rising cost of living.

She said, “I am coming from a supermarket where I went to get foodstuff, and everything has gone up again. It’s just like every single week, prices keep increasing. I want to know, what is the government doing about this increase?”

She concluded by describing Mr Tinubu as “such a terrible president”.

But Ajayi reacting to the video, argued that while ordinary citizens can freely criticise public officials, corps members are held to a higher standard under the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC) code

“If she is not a corper, she can say whatever she fancies like people do per second. Citizens can abuse a living day out of their President or any public official. It is normal,” Mr Ajayi stated on Facebook on Monday. “But a corper violated her oath and code of conduct here. That is capital punishment under NYSC.”

“You can’t abuse the country you are serving as a corper under any guise and the symbol of sovereign authority, which is the president. She should be punished to the fullest extent, not just warned”, Ajayi said.
