Popular Nigerian Instagram influencer and singer Tunde Ednut has reacted to a birthday message from Peter Obi, the Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate in the 2023 election.
Peter Obi had earlier in a post on his official X on Saturday congratulated Tunde on his birthday.
The former governor of Anambra state described Ednut as an “entertainment blogger and global internet influencer”, acknowledging his influence in bringing emerging comedians and musicians into the spotlight.
“I extend my heartfelt birthday wishes to the remarkable Nigerian entertainment blogger and global internet influencer, Tunde Olaoluwa Adekunle, widely known as ‘Tunde Ednut’, as he celebrates his 38th birthday,” he wrote.
“Your impact, contributions, and popularity are widely recognized and cherished by Nigerians worldwide, transcending ethnic, religious, and geographical boundaries.
“I join other men of goodwill in extending warm birthday wishes and hoping for many more decades of dedicated service to our nation and humanity.”
Reacting to Obi on his official Instagram page on Sunday night, Ednut stated that he is not a blogger.
Sharing Peter Obi’s post on his page, he wrote; “This is huge for me, wow I’m very honoured sir. Thank you, but sir I’m not a blogger sir, I am an entertainer sir.”
