Zelensky had expressed his country’s readiness to collaborate with Nigeria to address global concerns, particularly risks to food security, in a post sent via his Twitter account on Thursday while thanking Tinubu.
See his tweet below ;
He tweeted: “Congratulations @officialABAT on the victory in the election of the President of Nigeria. I look forward to close cooperation. I am convinced that the two-way interaction 🇺🇦 and 🇳🇬 will strengthen. Ukraine is determined to work together to overcome global challenges, including threats to food security!”
Zelensky’s tweet of congratulations to Tinubu, however, was ridiculed by some Twitter users, primarily Nigerians, while the Ukrainian president was backed by others.
Here are some of their tweets below ;
@OdinKinetic stated “Congratulations to Putin and the Russian federation. We the citizens of Nigeria stand with you and God will always protect the people of Russia.”
@valentinowpg stated “Mr. President you may have to do this congratulation once again in the nearest future. We know when you won your presidential election, it was the will of Ukrainians that voted for you and voted out the pro-Russian govt. Ours wasn’t the will of the people. Good luck in the war.”
@WeriseB stated “May Putin never leave Ukraine!! Amen!”
@obanojnr stated “Nigerians are right now in grief.. please don’t add to it.. Wishing someone CONGRATULATIONS who rigged his way into power is very wrong.. so many Nigerians were injured, died in the course of last election..For this, I say CONGRATULATIONS TO RUSSIA..
@IjeleMela stated “Corrupt people always know how to align with one another. This guy is probably very corrupt.”
