APC supporters express displeasure as Osinbajo ‘invites’ Chimamanda to his book launch

Some supporters of the All Progressives Congress (APC) have expressed their disappointment over a recent action of Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo.

Osinbajo held a virtual book launch on Monday, May 1, 2023, and invited popular Nigerian writer, Chimamanda Adichie as part of the keynote speakers at the event.

Considering how Chimamanda had heavily criticized the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari and was also a strong supporter of Peter Obi, many APC supporters called out Osinbajo for extending the invitation to her.
