On-Air Personality Toolz and rapper Falz have joined other Nigerians to knock former minister of petroleum resources Diezani Alison-Madueke over her statement on ‘Yahoo’ boys.
Mrs Diezani while delivering a lecture on August 7 said Nigerian youths are beginning to emulate ‘Yahoo’ boys and they are becoming role models.
On Monday via her Twitter handle, Toolz born Tolu Oniru-Demuren called Diezani a “fraudster”, stating that there was no difference between what she did and what ‘Yahoo’ boys do.
She tweeted: “See normally I would laugh but this is so ridiculous. This lady must have lost her damn mind to come online and spew this nonsense. How are you different from a fraudster ma? She actually has no shame, which is sadly common for a lot of our (present and past) politicians. No shame at all! Crazy woman. When you guys are ready…we will find space and start a new country.”
Falz shared a photo of the former minister, calling her “Yahoo girl” on Instagram.
“You are on the run but your mouth still dey run. Who be Yahoo Yahoo girl if no be you?” he asked.
Diezani has been in the United Kingdom since former President Goodluck Jonathan lost the election to Muhammadu Buhari in 2015.
She was reportedly appointed as a commissioner for trade and investment by Prime Minister Roosevelt Skerrit of the Commonwealth of Dominica and handed a diplomatic passport which has helped her to evade prosecution.
