Comedian Efe Warriboy criticized Benue State Governor Hyacinth Alia for making Wednesday a public holiday. The governor wanted people to welcome President Tinubu during his visit to the state. Warriboy said the holiday was wrong because families were mourning victims from the Yelewata massacre. Over 200 people died in recent attacks around the area.

The comedian made a video message that he shared on Instagram. He said politicians change when they gain power and join political parties. Warriboy thinks the governor should focus on helping grieving families instead of celebrating the president's arrival. One man lost 20 relatives in the violence according to viral videos.

Warriboy believes Governor Alia wants to impress his political leaders for the 2027 elections. The comedian said Tinubu should visit quietly without expecting a big welcome ceremony. He compared the current governor to former Governor Samuel Ortom who spoke loudly about state killings. Warriboy expected better leadership from Alia because he used to be a religious leader before becoming governor.
