“Merry Christmas to all, including the Wailing Wailers,” Adesina tweeted today, December 25, 2015.
The tweet was in reference to a previous one in which he described members of thePeoples Democratic Party (PDP) as “Wailing Wailers”.
The term has since become acceptable as Twitter lingo but many feel it’s inappropriate for Adesina to use it, especially in what should be a goodwill message to all Nigerians on Christmas Day.
