Nigerian netizen has sparked a heated debate online after calling out First Lady Remi Tinubu for her recent comments on dressing.
During a speech at an event, Nigeria First Lady Remi Tinubu advised young Nigerian girls to stop wearing skimpy, revealing clothes, stating, “We are not hosting MET Gala, nakedness is not beauty.”
However, a social media user, @IPrinceSavior, quickly pointed out the hypocrisy, sharing a photo of Tinubu’s daughter, who was dressed in a revealing outfit. The user wrote, “Remi Tinubu said ‘nakedness is not beauty’ but here is her daughter, well dressed.”
Another user, @RealQueenBee_, also joined the conversation, writing, “Can she sort her daughter first?” The comment implies that Tinubu should focus on addressing the dressing habits of her own family members before advising others.
The exchange has sparked a wider discussion on social media, with some users defending Remi Tinubu’s comments and others criticizing her for hypocrisy.
The debate raises questions about the role of public figures in shaping cultural norms and the importance of leading by example.
As one user, @NaijaGirl_ wrote, “Charity begins at home. If you want to preach about decent dressing, start with your own family.”
The conversation continues, the complexities of cultural expectations and the power of social media in holding public figures accountable.
