I’m Ashamed, Says Joe Igbokwe as Nigerians Lash Out at Remi Tinubu’s Petty Trade Advice

Joe Igbokwe, a senior APC chieftain, says he is filled with shame after Nigerians attacked First Lady Remi Tinubu’s recent advice on petty trading. Remi Tinubu urged young people to start small businesses, using akara frying as an example of a simple commercial venture. Many netizens responded angrily, accusing her of neglecting job creation for unemployed youths. On his Facebook page, Igbokwe condemned the harsh reactions. He called the insults senseless and warned against turning honest guidance into an occasion for abuse.

Do you think frying akara really addresses youth unemployment challenges, or is that advice too simplistic?

Selling akara is useful but can't cure unemployment alone; we need sustainable job creation strategies.

It's interesting that a First Lady would focus on basic street trades instead of broader economic policies.

Maybe Nigerians are too quick to ridicule simple suggestions when practical steps are sorely needed in this environment.

Rather than bickering, young people could pilot small ventures, document results, and advocate for supportive policies.
