Media personality Rufai Oseni has responded to a trending video of Nollywood actor and politician Desmond Elliott pleading with Femi Gbajabiamila, the Chief of Staff to President Bola Tinubu.

In his response, Rufai Oseni criticised what he called Nigeria’s “politics of lickers,” saying the incident reveals a problematic aspect of the Nigerian political landscape.

He questioned why Elliott had to kneel in his plea to Gbajabiamila, referencing recent political shifts in appointments and positions.

Oseni also said Elliott had had past disagreements with political figures before this incident.

This video has ignited discussions across social media, touching on Desmond Elliott, Femi Gbajabiamila, Rufai Oseni, Nigerian politics, loyalty within the political sphere, and how politicians are treated in the system.
