The Senior Special Assistant to Ekiti State Governor on Tourism Development, Wale Ojo-Lanre, has been slammed for displaying a clay pot designed as a water dispenser as innovation from the state.
The governor’s aide took to Twitter early Saturday to share photos of himself holding the clay pot.
“Ekiti State has a lot to offer!” he said in the post and tagged US President Donald Trump.
Besides the American president, also tagged in the post were President Muhammadu Buhari; World Trade Organisation (WTO); President of the African Development Bank (AfDB), Dr. Akinwumi Adesina; Chairman of Heirs Holdings, Tony Elumelu; and Special Adviser to President Buhari on Media and Publicity, Femi Adesina.

I don't know what is more shameful. The fact that you can call this an innovation or the fact that you decided to drag POTUS and UNWTO into this. Did you just wake up and decide to embarrass your state and Nigeria?
