Popular Nigerian comedian Seyi Law is once again at the center of online controversy after throwing shade at Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi. A now-viral video shows Obi humbly serving food at an event in Imo State, carrying trays and warmly engaging with guests — a gesture many Nigerians praised as genuine humility.
However, Seyi Law took a sarcastic swipe, reposting the video on X (formerly Twitter) with the caption: “This is the height of humility. Na today I confirm sey Peter Obi really humble.”
The comment didn’t sit well with Obi’s loyal supporters, who flooded his timeline with backlash. Many defended Obi, insisting he’s always been grounded and connected to the people, whether in power or not.
Known for mixing humor with hot political takes, Seyi Law’s remarks have reignited debates about celebrity influence and political loyalty in Nigeria. One thing’s for sure — this isn’t the last time he’ll trend for speaking his mind.
