Momodu, in the article, praised Acting President, Yemi Osinbajo for his performance in the president’s absence.
“The good news is that the Acting President has started doing some of the things we expected and advised President Buhari to do.”
“I do not want to over-excite anyone yet but this is smelling good, like the Americans would put it.

“I had suggested in my memos to him that what he was looking for in Sokoto (the city) is actually in his sokoto (pocket). He has got a powerful joker in the pack and that is his Vice President. Professor Osinbajo is not your typical politician.
“He is a technocrat with the diligence, astuteness and thoroughness of the smart lawyer that he is. He has a passion for Nigeria and its great development that is uncanny and worthy of emulation,” he wrote.
THE WHISTLER reports that Ms Onochie has become popular on Twitter for publicly attacking notable figures whenever they dare to criticize President Buhari’s Government.
However, the presidential aide obviously “picked on a wrong customer” when she asked Mr Momodu to “borrow some common sense” from educated Nigerian youths while reacting to the latter’s article.
ONOCHIE’S TWEETS:
10. Dele Momodu must borrow some common sense from some of our youth who are educated and who know the meaning of “Team”. Here’s one… pic.twitter.com/P3UugXFSpA

1. EDUCATING DELE MOMODU
“Osinbajo is doing what Buhari failed to do” – @DeleMomoduhttps://t.co/AiYXKVeuAS@Ayourb @Zahrahmusa @Omojuwa pic.twitter.com/cbrAF6NbwS— Lauretta Onochie (@Laurestar) February 26, 2017
Mr Momodu, in a series of tweets, described Onochie as a “complete ignoramus” who commented on an article she did not understand.
DELE MOMODU’S RESPONSE:
Good morning Madam. I’ve been flying so just reading your tirades and vituperations against me. You picked on a wrong customer. https://t.co/EFFQ8wdI7s

It takes a complete ignoramus to comment on an article he/she has not read or understood; when & where did I separate BUHARI/OSINBAJO?! https://t.co/EFFQ8wdI7s

I know you want to do what you’re paid to do but if sent on a slave errand you should behave like a freeborn and know how to join issues! https://t.co/EFFQ8wdI7s

I’m not a professional activist like you and so your opinion of me is complete fallacy; I freely supported Buhari bec PDP was no option! https://t.co/EFFQ8wdI7s

You did not have to hide behind one finger to attack me; I’m not a member of APC in order to maintain my freedom of speech & association! https://t.co/EFFQ8wdI7s
— Dele Momodu Ovation (@DeleMomodu) February 27, 2017
In my article, I praised Buhari for having a deputy like Osinbajo who obviously in our usual tradition couldn’t do what he’s doing now! https://t.co/EFFQ8wdI7s
— Dele Momodu Ovation (@DeleMomodu) February 27, 2017
I said parents would be proud of a child who’s upholding the family legacy; only mischief makers would get angry that I encouraged Osinbajo! https://t.co/EFFQ8wdI7s
— Dele Momodu Ovation (@DeleMomodu) February 27, 2017
In fact you are the one getting angry and separating BUHARI/OSINBAJO just because I said something positive is beginning to happen! https://t.co/EFFQ8wdI7s
— Dele Momodu Ovation (@DeleMomodu) February 27, 2017
What common-sense should I borrow from a rude person like you; where were you in 2015 when the GEJ guys attacked us like you’re doing now! https://t.co/EFFQ8wdI7s
— Dele Momodu Ovation (@DeleMomodu) February 27, 2017
Do you think I cannot advise BUHARI like I did to GEJ; my support was never a blank cheque and only a loyal friend will tell you the truth! https://t.co/EFFQ8wdI7s
— Dele Momodu Ovation (@DeleMomodu) February 27, 2017
Pls start; I’ve plenty of time for you today; a rude person like you can only represent govt in a country where merit means nothing! https://t.co/qdYLOaVeEA
