The legislator spoke in response to a statement made by the First Lady describing Muhammadu Buhari, the All Progressives Congress (APC) Presidential candidate, as brain-dead.
“Mrs. Jonathan is an embarrassment to the whole country. The only people shouting her praise or listening to her are the sycophants; outside them, nobody else does,” Dabiri-Erewa said.
“She is crude and unrefined. When you travel out of the country, Nigerians keep asking you how we came this bad,” she added.
