The comedian was among a delegation of skit makers who visited vice president, Prof Yemi Osinbajo under the aegis of the Nigeria Skits Industry Awards (NSIA) at the presidential villa on Wednesday.

However, a resultant effect of the meeting was backlash from fans and Nigerians nationwide accusing the skit makers of selling out for money.
In a post via his Instagram Story on Friday, the comedian denied receiving money from the vice-president as alleged.
“I did not collect a dime on this trip. The motive behind my visit to the villa has nothing to do with an envelope and none was received by me,” he wrote.
Woli Agba said while the visit was majorly about NSIA, he and his colleagues took advantage of the opportunity to address national issues such as police brutality and Twitter ban.
“Though the reason for our visit to the villa was for NSIA, yet, we seized the opportunity to first present the grievances of we, the youth. #policebrutality#twitterban among others, while we hope for positive change from the govt,” he added.
He also apologised for describing his critics as “programmed robot” in an earlier post, claiming that such was a “misconception.”
“The clause ‘programmed robot’ in one of my comments was a misconception and I sincerely apologise for that,” he wrote.
“I am a youth and a member of the #sorosokegeneration and I am unwilling to be manipulated against what we all stand for.
“I preach good values: morals, respect and integrity (evident in my works).”
His reaction comes after his colleague, Taaooma apologized for accepting the visitation.
