Videos are making the rounds on how the Chairman Lagos State Parks and Garages, Musiliu Akinsanya, snubbed a popular Nigerian entrepreneur and politician, Shina Abiola Peller, at a party recently.

What could have happened between the two?

Paying close attention to the lyrics of song exchange between MC Oluomo and King Wasiu Ayinde Marshal 1 might give an insight into the bone of contention. Could this be as a result of his stance against the ambition of MC Oluomo’s godfather? Watch.

Recall that back in 2021, Peller, when reacting to a question on whether former Lagos governor, Bola Tinubu should be president of Nigeria in 2023, he said that the president’s office should be based on strong institution rather than individuals. He said criteria should be set, leaving whoever meets the criteria to occupy the office.

“We need to build an institution now, we do not need to take any single person and be saying we want to now rally around that person. I think let us form an institution, let us identify a criteria and let us see who meets up with the criteria.

“There is no institution that has set up the criteria yet, if the criteria says the next president should be christian, is Asiwaju a christian?,” Peller said.

Peller further stated that relying on personalities to save Nigeria was a mistake, and that the next president should be elected through institutions capable of ensuring the competency of the individuals.

“We have made the mistake two times. There was a time in Nigeria when President Obasanjo was brought from prison and everybody was saying he is the best person that could do this and we started to run around him. The Same thing happened to President Buhari, everybody was saying Mohammadu Buhari is a saint, he is not corrupt and then everyone starts to run around him, I believe this must stop,” Peller said.

Peller, like Tinubu, was a member of the ruling All Progressives Congress before decamped to Accord Party in 2022 when he lost the Oyo North senatorial ticket during the APC primary.

The owner of Quilox was later stopped in his senatorial bid by the APC candidate.
