This did not go well with a follower who brought his attention to the death of Tina Ezekwe who was shot by a trigger happy policeman.

 

In his response, Slimcase referred to George’s protest as a global pandemic stating that the death of “Lagos Girl” should be left to Channels News to talk about.
