During the EndSars protest across the country when some palliatives were looted, Ireti said in her Twitter handle that it is as a result of hunger. She posted "I know we are renowned for loving awoof, but greed wasn't the reason for the stampede on palliatives, it was hunger. Acute hunger. That is something your leaders will never live down."[21]

Notes

[edit | edit source]
  1. ^ For Colored Girls shouldn't be confused with Tyler Perry's 2010 film of the same name. It is actually the Nigerian adaptation of the American stage play, For colored girls who have considered suicide / when the rainbow is enuf.
