Nigerians have dragged the Lagos government on the social media to demand justice for Funke Akindele and her husband JJC Skills, who were punished by the Lagos State Government for violating the lockdown order by throwing a house party for her husband’s birthday.
However, Funke and her husband JJC were arrested, convicted and charged to pay a sum of 100k each, then sentencing them to a-14-days community service.
And that was a judgement which most Nigerians accepted.
Meanwhile that judgement was not taken as fair judgment today, and people feels that she was unjustly treated, because of the televised burial of the late Chief of Staff to the President, Abba Kyari, where most of the members of the Federal government of Nigeria defied the social distancing orders given by them.

Nigeria is a big joke,Abuja is supposedly on lock down and see the crowd at a burial just because he was the chief of staff..we dont practice what we preach and later men on uniforms will be impounding cars and arresting people with good reasons for being outside..what a shame.— matylda (@tilly_baibee) April 18, 2020

I guess social distancing is for the poor but my greatest joy is that judgement is here already and by from now on the wicked leaders will never know peace even unto their generations. The wicked will be cut off now and forever— Izekor Becky (@IzekorBecky2) April 18, 2020
And they almost crucified Funke Akindele and Her husband for celebrating birthday party..— Oluchi Pauline (@OluchiPauline3) April 18, 2020
Who is fooling who?
There was a country, where law makers can't even keep the laws they enacted even when it concerns wellbeing. (naija for sale) #COVID19 #socialdistancing— Engr. Deodivine (@deodivine1) April 18, 2020

Largely violated. It makes a joke and mockery of the whole lockdown and the punishment of a celebrity for attempting the same thing. Shior!— Onlineiyaoloja (@Onlineiyaoloja) April 18, 2020
What if this virus still survives underground....— Set Awon Bad girl geng (@Abekelagos) April 18, 2020
What if the virus reincarnates in the nearby future
What if people later plant on that land and all the proceeds are laced with this virus....
Just because they refused to cremate the corpse which is the right way to go.
Funke akindele was prosecuted not obeying social gathering, the northerners and politicians are gathering together and not practicing social distance because of Abba Kyari, Are they above the law?— CHOCOLATE (@iam_ofc) April 18, 2020
