"Hi @toluogunlesi, my sister-in-law was among the 3 dead students found today from Greenfield University. We are all trying to unpack our feelings. People’s children have become sports for bandits & kidnappers. I know you get a lot of stick on here...

"Where do we go from here Tolu? Do we worry about tomorrow? Do we believe in a fair, just and righteous God? My mother-in-law hasn’t eaten or showered in 3 days since her daughter, whom she saw on Monday, got kidnapped & this death was the answer to her prayers," the tweet said in part.

In response to the above tweet, Ogunlesi tweeted;

"I’m so sorry to hear this Yamai. My deepest condolences."

The above tweeted response, has generated a lot of condemnation from twitter users. Some of them are below

Tolu, is this your reply??‍♀️I'm crying for my country.?? Almighty God help my country.? We don't have anyone to fight for us. Send help to us. Oluwa, one of the president worker replying like nothing happened?? How did we get here??? Ani kure, ama sofo danu tomotomo.?

"My deepest condolences" should be added to our national anthem so that y'all bastards don't have to keep repeating it everyday. Dats all the president and his accomplice know how to do best. I'm just heart broken.

He asked for answers, not condolences.

I am sure you were expecting a response from Tolu in the first place. The Entire Administration love to always send their hearts out to victims of their ineptitude actions. From the President to His Vice down to LG Chairmen. They were elected to send out condolences messages

Is this all u have to say, I'm so pissed right now. This is heartbreaking. He's not after ur condolences, get ur priorities straight cos it won't bring back his sister-in-law & those who are deceased; Do something to ensure others don't get killed. Get to work immediately.
