Nigerians' reactions

Some Nigerians have taken to the comment section of the governor's aide's post and expressed their anger. Below are some of their reactions:

Olorogun Ernest wrote:

"She's from Akwa Ibom state and has nothing to do with Delta state. There are so many bad/disturbing viral videos of the Delta state all over the internet. Why not focus your energy & attention on fixing the Delta state and make life much better for Deltans than this sort of unnecessary busybody move?

"These are the types of setbacks @RtHonSheriff is facing, which makes it look like he's failing Deltans. There are just too many clueless aides working with Gov. Sheriff."

Jefferson claimed:

"Who do you want to pimp this babe for now for Delta. This is to show you how the government of Delta State has failed. Misplaced priority."

Ufuoma Nanu wrote:

"Misplaced priority. Why not use such funds to empower more graduates and artisans from your community/local government with bright ideas who need even less than 500k just to start a small business? This is just to chase clout, or maybe you were directed from above, sha."

Faith Worship commented:

"If I were to apply for the post of a virtual Assistant, a trained virtual Assistant, this same ossai wouldn't even look at it. Can Nigerians who deserve to be gainfully employed also be given opportunities like this? Hmm, world."
