Seyi Shay’s 'Breaks The Internet'

One of the famous Nigeria’s singer Seyi Shay, met with President Goodluck Jonathan during the Meet The President youth programme at the Eko Hotel, Lagos.

It should be noted that President Jonathan met the Nigerian youth ahead of the March 28 poll. The lucky ones were able to ask President Jonathan questions on the main issues that concern every resident.

Jonathan’s main opponent for presidential election General Muhammadu Buhari from opposition this month took part in a live event and QA session at the Chatham House in London, UK, on February 26, 2015.

Some Nigerians have expressed displeasure with her choice of outfit for the event, and ‘dissatisfaction’ is putting it slightly.


Seyi Shay has promptly become the Nigerian internet’s most intensely discussed celebrity.
Comedian Wale Gates also took to Twitter to express his attitude.

Read what he and other Nigerians have to say below:

The moment she sat next 2d President, GEJ went into Prayer Warrior mode Isaiah 54:17 “No weapon FASHIONED against me shall prosper” I heard.

“@walegates: That girl woke up the President’s inner beast.” <<<< Bro, with that dressing, even my late grandfather would RISE — JohnKerry (@Talk_Expert) March 3, 2015

The President has no blame too. He obviously couldn’t have sent her away to “go and dress properly my friend!” — J|#BringBackOurGirls (@omojuwa) March 3, 2015

I’d rather blame the President’s protocol team – don’t read this as the president himself – because they ought to have “controlled” stuff

Seyi Shay performed onstage and afterwards publicly asked to take a pix with Mr. President who signalled that she could and she did — Demola Olarewaju (@DemolaRewaju) March 3, 2015

Seyi Shay has no respect at all. You went to meet your President dressed like this. No respect at all pic.twitter.com/KcVhOzmo0A” — Henry Okelue (@4eyedmonk) March 3, 2015

Seyi Shay will have mouth to slander Amber Rose but will dress like a nuisance to a meeting with the President.

Its funny that people are slamming Seyi Shay’s appearance. To me, its a non-issue. Cos I can choose her over GEJ if need arises anytime! — Farouq Siyi (@Wiz_RhynO) March 3, 2015

What do you think? Is her dress suitable for meeting with President?
