Renowned politician and public figure, Chief Dele Momodu, has recently taken to social media to express his frustration with opposition supporters who engage in online bullying tactics.
Momodu, known for his outspoken nature, did not hold back as he criticized these individuals for their perceived arrogance and blind defence of what he referred to as a “useless system.”

In a tweet, he questioned the mindset of those who attempt to intimidate and bully others on their personal Twitter accounts.
The founder of Ovation magazine expressed his confusion over how these individuals, whom he referred to as “thugs,” believe they can silence everyone with their aggressive behaviour.
The former presidential candidate in Nigeria further emphasized that these opposition supporters are, in fact, the greatest sufferers of the system they defend so fiercely.
He did not shy away from labeling the system as “useless,” implying that these individuals are blindly defending something that is ultimately detrimental to their own well-being.
“I often wonder how the thugs on X often think they can bully everyone off their personal accounts when it is obvious they are the greatest sufferers of the useless system they struggle to defend blindly.
“All the countries we all wish to run to were made better through the huge sacrifices and excruciating pains of some opposition leaders. If it is about convenience, many of us would easily join any government in power but we must set new standards for our nation and kick against electoral malpractices.
“For me, it has nothing to do with who won or who lost but about the shambolic electoral process… It is my personal opinion and I stand by it. It would have been more convenient to defend my friend and Big Brother, but that’s not who I’m. It is a matter of principle…,” the foremost journalist wrote.
