“You are disrespectful”: Deyemi Okanlawon’s letter to Thaddeus Attah after win over Banky W sparks reactions

Nollywood actor Deyemi Okanlawon has put himself up for dragging after he penned an open letter to Eti-Osa honourable-elect, Thaddeus Attah, who defeated singer and politician Banky W in the just concluded election.

In his lengthy letter via his Instagram account, Deyemi revealed he voted for Banky W because he was the ideal candidate for the job.

While congratulating Attah, the moviemaker further asked the honourable elect to make his plan for Eti-Osa known as he revealed he had done extensive research on him and found out nothing.
