<h2>Nigerian actress Eniola Badmus&nbsp;has faced some backlash after taking to Instagram to celebrate President Tinubu's first year in office, saying that he brought hope to Nigeria.</h2>

In a post made in the early hours of May 30, 2024, Badmus posted a video of the Nigerian president and parliament singing the <a data-link-role-code="open_new_tab" href="https://www.pulse.ng/news/tinubu-approves-bill-restoring-old-national-anthem/qfclp7c" title="You brought hope - Eniola Badmus to Tinubu on his first year in office">newly reinstated national </a>anthem.

"Eniola Wule Bantu ,Alatenuje, body like Amoeba. May Nigeria 🇳🇬 happen to you. May The kind of progress you have seen in this administration happen to you and your loved ones" said another user, slamming her.

A staunch supporter of the president, this is not the first time Badmus has faced backlash for her support for him. Similarly in 2022, she received backlash after expressing her support of Tinubu ahead of the 2023 general elections. In 2023 during the election period, she also received criticism for her public support of him.

Last week, she was named&nbsp;Special Adviser to the Speaker, Tajudeen Abass, on Social Events and Public Hearings.
