Comedian and social media commentator Freedom Atsepoyi, better known as Mr. Jollof, has weighed in on the ongoing conversation surrounding First Lady Oluremi Tinubu and her visit to the Delta Nursing School.
In a viral video, Remi Tinubu was rejected by nursing students after the MC started a song that required them to refer to the first lady as 'their mother'.
Instead of saying "our mama", the students collectively chanted "their mama". This incident sparked reactions on social media, with many expressing their thoughts.
Mr Jollof, on his part, blamed the MC for playing the wrong song at the wrong time.
According to the comedian, the event was not a political gathering that justified telling adults to call someone else their mother.
“You can’t ask people to call someone else their mother, it’s not a political gathering," he said.
His post garnered reactions from social media users.

@softstrength said: "The one wey concern me na the “funding for the Kit (new uniforms in this case) for the Midwives” and the assumption that the nurses are not happy with her cuz she didn’t give them new “kit”. Are these people really this oblivious to the actual reality of situations in our country? Trust me the midwives sef no want their “kit”."
