Yul Edochie Takes On Journalist Rufai Oseni in Social Media Clash

Yul Edochie’s Critique on Journalist Rufai Oseni

Nollywood actor, Yul Edochie, has slammed Nigerian journalist, Rufai Oseni, on social media over his heated exchange with All Progressive Congress (APC) chieftain, Jesutega Onokpasa.

Background of the Heated Exchange

The report contextualizes the situation by mentioning the clash between Rufai Oseni and Jesutega Onokpasa, which appears to be the trigger for Yul Edochie’s comments.

Rufai on Monday clashed with Onakpasa over the policies of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the challenging economic situation in the country.

Yul Edochie’s Criticism

Edochie accuses Oseni of lacking moral justification, disrespecting others on national TV, and acting as if he knows what’s best for Nigeria.

Edochie emphasizes the need for Oseni to learn journalism and show respect for guests on television programs.

Taking to his official Instagram page, Yul said Rufai, who was caught driving on a BRT lane in Lagos, lacks the moral justification to talk with people of integrity.

According to the movie star, Oseni needs to sit down and shut up, labelling him a disrespectful person, among other things.

The Nollywood star claimed Rufai acts like a god on TV by making his guests uncomfortable and acting like he loves Nigeria the most and is the most concerned citizen in the country.

Challenging Oseni’s Sense of Importance

Yul Edochie questions Oseni’s sense of self-importance and expresses his belief that Oseni should not consider himself above other Nigerians.

He criticizes Oseni’s behavior on national TV, where he allegedly disrespects guests and acts as if he is more concerned about the country than others.

He added that Rufai is not better than every other Nigerian, and he needs to go and learn to be a journalist.

He said: “My friend shut up and sit down! I’m talking to you! You have no right, you don’t have any moral justification to talk where people with integrity are talking! You’re talking nonsense on national TV, you’re a very disrespectful person, you have no respect for the laws of this country! In fact if someone like you becomes president, you will wipe out Nigerians.

Are you not the same person that was caught driving on BRT lane? You could not even apologise, if not because somebody had a video, that was when you came on national TV to apologise.

This is what you do, imagine the other ones that we’ve not seen before. Who taught you journalism? The first thing they should have taught you is to respect your guests.

“You’re not better than anybody out there.

You’re a very disrespectful person and you should go and learn journalism, you are insulting people on national TV.

“Same Rufai Oseni that is insulting people, acting like God on national TV, making your guests very uncomfortable, you dey form like na you get Nigeria, you’re the most concerned citizen, you’re more concerned than all of us, my friend shut up! You have no moral justification to talk to anybody on TV that way because you’re not better than any Nigerian.”
