One of the spokesmen for the presidency, Bashir Ahmad, who took to his Twitter handle on Tuesday, April 16, 2019, revealed that a lot of people who have worked diligently for their money aren't complaining in the country.

"Madam Omotola those who are working for CLEAN money are not complaining and will never refer our dear country as ‘hellish’. In Kano State alone, from 2015 to 2018, no fewer than 200 medium and small scale rice milling centres emerged. For that, billions circulated among millions," he tweeted.

The presidency's response to Omotola Jalade-Ekeinde's recent rants is coming 24 hours after the actress aired her opinion in series of Instagram stories.
