Popular media personality Yeni Kuti had a heated exchange with Segun Sowunmi, a prominent member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), during a recent appearance on TVC’s Your View.
The confrontation followed Sowunmi’s surprise visit to President Bola Tinubu at his residence in Lagos over the weekend. The visit stirred up controversy online, as Sowunmi is known for his outspoken criticism of Tinubu. He previously served as the spokesperson for Atiku Abubakar, the PDP’s presidential candidate in the 2023 elections.
During the TV segment, Yeni Kuti questioned Sowunmi’s apparent change in stance, asking him:
“You’ve been critical of the president, but now your tone has changed after the visit. So, when are you planning to leave the PDP and join the APC?”
Sowunmi, visibly irritated, responded:
“I didn’t come on this show for you to be cheeky with me. Please stop that.”
Kuti fired back, saying:
“I can’t be cheeky with you — I’m probably older than you.”
In an attempt to de-escalate, Sowunmi said:
“Oh sister! My Aunty! I take that back. Please don’t be angry.”
To which Kuti replied firmly:
“I’m not your aunty.”
The exchange quickly gained attention online.
