Content creator MC Lively pointed out that social commentator JJ Omojuwa’s tweet about the US elections was insensitive.
After Donald Trump from the Republican Party lost the Washington DC votes to Kamala Harris from the Democratic Party, Omojuwa suggested that attention should shift to the judiciary.
His comment seemed to mock supporters of Nigeria’s Labour Party, who used the hashtag #AllEyesOnTheJudiciary when Peter Obi challenged the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in court during the 2023 presidential elections.
MC Lively said he felt unhappy about being called Omojuwa’s friend due to his comments. He also asked Omojuwa to lower his gun.
In his response, JJ Omojuwa made it clear that he does not see MC Lively as a friend. He pointed out that their interactions at public events do not make them friends; they are simply acquaintances.
The content creator expressed relief in knowing they were not friends. Their tweets gained traction among X users, who shared their views on the exchange.

lollylarry1: “I’m still searching for the insensitivity in that post.”
akinbobola: “Sad reality of people seeking friends in an opinion field. For the education of those still in the dark, X is majorly for sharing of OPINIONS. Though they may reflect facts at times, they remain opinions of the author! Caution: Melding of opinions doesn’t indicate kinship.”
justboluwatife: “Funny guy wan use style disrespect JJ. Man said “insensitive comments like this” then went on to use “friend and Egbon”.”
AyanfeOmoBola: “I observed JJ comes so clearer to people these days.”

Drop your gun. https://t.co/TIS8FrIfUf
We aren’t friends my brother. We see in public, we greet like civilised people. That doesn’t make us friends. It makes us acquaintances at best. And that’s okay too.

We only need to be clear about that, to avoid the tyranny of misplaced expectations.
