If you go on Twitter right now, the number one treand in TwitterNG is Abike Dabiri. The kind of yabbing she's getting from Nigerians especially in diaspora would make you pity her. So what has this beloved three time member of the House of reps and current Senior Special to President Muhammadu Buhari on foreign relations and diaspora done to draw the anger of an already pissed-off citizenry?
Abike Dabiri-Erewa misfired with a tweet from her official twitter handle, @abikedabiri. In the series of tweets where she was advocating for Nigerians in diaspora to help with the
administration's rehabilitation of the country, a twitter user, Onuoha David (@davo2short), in response, asked her why should he return to a country without basic infrastructure and a poor economy to "help rebuild it" and Abike Dabiri replied by tweeting
"But, Who is asking you to come?"
This single tweet by her quickly caught fire and resulted in other Nigerians on Twitter coming for her head. See some reactions below:
Like some of the reactions point out, her tweets were not meant to come across as it did. Problem with texting, you never get to explain yourself very well as you would if it were face to face.
