Nigerians have reacted to celebrity comedian Emmanuel Chukwuemeka Ejekwu, also known as Mr. Funny or Oga Sabinus, for mocking the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential candidate Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

Sabinus has been trending online thanks to a viral video that shows the comedian entertaining his audience at a recent show in Port-Harcourt with some skit performers impersonating Tinubu.

Bashir Ahmad, President Muhammadu Buhari’s media aide, responded to the video on Twitter, writing, “This is very insulting Sabinus.”

Another Tinubu supporter, Qudus Akanbi Eleyi of Lagos, condemned the comedian and urged Twitter users to unfollow him.

Another group of supporters who backed Sabinus claimed he was only imitating Tinubu.

@firstladyship said: “Sabinus is a young man minding his business. He paid his tuition in full. Your constitution guarantees freedom of expression. The APC will be defeated and relegated to the underworld (whence they came). Follow @Sabinus1_ for more amusing content.”

@muzzie ola said, “In English, what Sabinus did is called “mimicking” many great presidents, leaders, actors, actress have been mimicked in the past. Tinubu was imitated; no words were added that he did not say. If you find this disgusting, that is how disgusting your candidate appears and sounds.”
