“Was Peter Obi Absent at Buhari’s Burial Because They Didn’t Serve Rice?” Deeone Quizzes Politician

• Nigerian comedian Deeone has triggered mixed reactions after he criticised Peter Obi of Labour Party
• Legit.ng reported that the former presidential candidate was conspicuously absent at former president Muhammadu Buhari’s burial
• Deeone, in a recent video, questioned Peter Obi for his absence as he made reference to the forthcoming elections

Nigerian comedian Aderombi Adedayo Martin, also known as Deeone, has criticised the former Labour Party presidential candidate Peter Obi over his absence at the funeral of late president Muhammadu Buhari.

Legit.ng reported that the former president died on July 13 in a London hospital and was buried in Daura, his hometown.

While many have lambasted Peter Obi for not attending the late president Muhammadu Buhari's burial in Daura, Katsina state, on Tuesday, comedian Deeone posed a provocative question.

The former BBNaija housemate claimed that the presidential candidate did not attend the burial since there was no rice for him to share.

He pointed out the deliberate involvement of President Tinubu and former vice president Atiku Abubakar.

Deeone, however, advised that Peter Obi still had time to visit Buhari’s family and sympathise with them, to get favour from the north ahead of the next election season.

"A former Nigerian President died and no world leader attended the funeral, not even African presidents.This goes further to show how other countries see Nigeria. This is a president that ruled Nigeria for 8years. Could it be that Buhari didn't build any good relationship with other world leaders?"
