Some funny reactions have greeted the revelation made by the Minister of Works and Housing, Babatunde Fashola, about the president-elect, Bola Ahmed Tinubu (BAT).
Fashola on Sunday night, described the schedule of the Tinubu, as a very tight one, adding that the former Lagos governor stays awake at night to do his best work.
The works and housing minister, who is also a former governor of Lagos State, disclosed this while speaking on Channels TV.
The current two-term governor and minister worked under Tinubu as the chief of staff in the state.
He urged those planning to work with Tinubu to be prepared, adding that Tinubu is “very nocturnal”.
“I was his chief of staff for four and a half years. I took over from Lai Mohammed.
“In terms of controlling Asiwaju’s schedule, that was a tough task because he has day and night schedules.
“For those who are going to work with him, he is very nocturnal. I hope he changes. He will wake you up at night. He does his best work in the dead of the night. Unless you push back and claim your space at night, he will encroach it,” Fashola said.
Reacting to Fashola’s revelation, some Nigerians took to their Twitter handles to describe Tinubu with negative but funny names.
Below are some of their reactions:
