Popular Nigerian comedian Seyi Law, whose real name is Lawrence Oluwaseyitan Aletile, has withdrawn his earlier statement comparing the past administration with President Bola Tinubu’s government on security matters.
Following the widespread reactions that trailed his comments online, the comedian has now taken to his Instagram page to tender an apology.
He said; “My fellow Nigerians, I owe you this & more. I’m sincerely sorry for such an insensitive statement that I made on the Honest Bunch podcast.”
“I’m not someone who would be too proud or very insensitive to apologize when he makes mistakes.”
“I had looked at that statement and I think it is quite insensitive to those who have had an issue with kidnapping, relatives been killed and all that.”
“I want to sincerely and unreservedly tender an apology to those who that statement has hurt. I believe that statement is very insensitive.”
Seyi Law had in an interview recently said that the country is more safer than 10 years ago despite the growing attack by terrorists and kidnapping across Nigeria.
