In a post tagged ‘DIRECT ANSWERS TO ONGOING ISSUES’, Wole wrote:
1. I did not collect a dime on this trip.
2. The motive behind my visit to the villa has nothing to do with an envelope and none was received by me.
3. Though the reason for our visit to the villa was for NSIA, yet, we seized the opportunity to first present the grievances of we, the youth. #policebrutality#twitterban among others, while we hope for positive change from the govt.
4. The clause “programmed robot” in one of my comments was a misconception and I sincerely apologise for that.
5. I am a youth and a member of the #sorosokegeneration and I am unwilling to be manipulated against what we all stand for.
6. I preach good values: Morals, Respect and Integrity (evident in my works).
On Wednesday, skit makers Woli Agba, Taaooma, Josh2funny, Yemi Elosho and Mr Hyenana among other visited vice president Yemi Osinbajo.
Their visit however sparked reactions from some Nigerians who claimed that the purpose of the visit was to serve their ‘selfish’ interest and not the public.
