According to the movie star, Oseni needs to sit down and shut up. The actor also said the journalist has no moral justification to talk with people of integrity. Yul labelled him a disrespectful person among other things.

He said:

“My friend shut up and sit down! I’m talking to you! You have no right, you don’t have any moral justification to talk where people with integrity are talking! You’re talking nonsense on national TV, you’re a very disrespectful person, you have no respect for the laws of this country! In fact if someone like you becomes president, you will wipe out Nigerians. Are you not the same person that was caught driving on BRT lane? You could not even apologise, if not because somebody had a video, that was when you came on national TV to apologise. This is what you do, imagine the other ones that we’ve not seen before. Who taught you journalism? The first thing they should have taught you is to respect your guests.”

Also in the video, Yul made sure to remind Rufai that Tinubu is the president of Nigeria and the journalist needs to respect him. He went ahead to say that the president needs time to fix the country because he has only been there for a few months.

In his words:

“Jagaban, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is the president of Nigeria, that’s the grand commander of the federal republic, GCFR, he’s the president whether you like it or not. He is our president and you must respect him. If you feel like being president, you have the next four years, go and buy form and contest and ofcourse President Tinubu will defeat you. The man just came in, he’s been there for just months, give him time. Rome was not built in a day, Rufai Oseni you’re not better than any other Nigerian out there, ordinary to apologise for driving on BRT lane you couldn’t do it… have respect for our president and the man deserves to be given time to work.”
