Following this, Seyi Law took to his X account in the late hours of February 19, 2024, to respond to Abdulkareem’s viral clip. In his tweet, he vehemently stated that the singer’s words were untrue.
“Eedris na person wey I love, but this is not true abeg. @iamshortfamily, when I talk this one for your show?” he said in his tweet.
Seyi Law also responded to a tweet containing a clip from his previous show, the same show Abdulkareem made mention of.
He said: “Thanks for posting this first. I have been looking for someone who recorded my performance. So where did I tell Eedris I made the biggest mistake? Is it that he thinks a joke is a reality?”
Seyi Law, a staunch supporter of the current president Tinubu and the All Progressive Party, faced criticism from Nigerians due to his public support. Despite the backlash, he remained steadfast in his support for the administration. On February 19, 2024, he wrote an open letter to the president on his X account, urging him to improve the nation for all citizens.
