The incident has sparked reactions from on social, with many commenting on the need for improved public speaking skills among legislators.

Alexander Ukwuoma, an X user with username @AlexanderU4690 wrote; “It’s very shameful such thing happen in this era
We need to be careful on the kind of people we elect to represent us But anyway no body is above mistake, l pray he work on himself because this is a national disgrace to him and his constituency.”

Another user, @JShoremekun reacted; “This is rather embarrassing, to say the least. This is what you get when we don’t put our best forward. It is well.”

@KennethOkoko commented; “This is shameful. Is he representing NURTW, Molete Branch in the Oyo State House of Assembly?”

@uchenduchris01 said; “In a country where the unqualified are forced on the qualified, this is what you get. When a man who is supposed to be in the farm is placed to man the cockpit, of course he will crash the airplane.”

@goodlukgoody simply reacted; “A huge disaster.”

However, others defended the lawmaker, saying speaking of English shouldn’t a yardstick to judge his capacity or performance.

@goodbuaya wrote; “But english is just a language and not a measure of intelligence nah. As long as he’s a performing rep, shikenan!

@AA_Adelodun said; “RT. (HON) ABASS ADIGUN AGBOWORIN. Member, House of Representatives, Ibadan North- East/South- East Federal Constituency, Oyo State. Yes this is the same Rep Member that is trending and being judged by a 43secs clip. This is Hon Abass Adigun from Ibadan Oyo State.
