Nigerian comedian Seyi Law has called on people to stop criticizing Oseloka Obi, the son of former Labour Party presidential candidate, Peter Obi.

This comes after pictures of Oseloka dining with a friend, who some claimed is gay, went viral on social media. The photos quickly became a trending topic, with some people suggesting it could affect his father’s political career.

In response, Seyi Law advised Nigerians to stop targeting the young man. He wrote, “Family should be off limits. I didn’t attack anyone first.

Let’s be careful not to become what we criticize. Please, leave the young man alone. He is not his father, and he doesn’t decide other people’s choices.”

Many social media users also shared their opinions. @Crystalacho said, “Sorry people dragged your family into this, but keep standing for truth.”

@kingroyce01 commented, “This is bad, but I wouldn’t be shocked if you started the account yourself. Nothing surprises me.”

@holuwafemi_002 added, “I can’t just let anyone mess with him. Imagine if curses worked? We’d all be dead. Stay out, but I can’t.”

@TpainRenegade27 noted, “He is an adult, yet people treat him like a child. Age of consent is legal in the UK. Stop twisting the facts.”

@BARYORNLE223771 said, “Let’s be the bigger person here. Don’t stoop low; that’s the only way to deal with negativity.”
