thebennyboom:
“Innocent you my brother and I like you but can you stop with the unnecessary distractions?? for God’s sake No influencer should stand on the fence period!!”
kobokomaster_comedian:
“Una, them, people, your, Nigerians. No one wants to be in front but we all want someone to be in front.”
merrytalux:
“I stopped taking tuface serious after he canceled his much publicized protest. To imagine I traveled down from ph to Lagos to show solidarity, only for the chicken livered man to back out in the dieing minutes. I don't expect anything better from him again that can't hold his home though. You no go see them, but when it's time to support and defend rubbish them go get mouth.”
lucci_okoye:
“Someone who gingered Nigerians to come out and protest and when it was time nobody heard from him again. During Endsars he was as quiet as a DOVE na the same person wey dey say come out n protest if them no perform. Tuface is still sitting on the fence. Don't be deceived!”

“I don’t even understand what 2baba is saying but he’s so right!”
