London, United Kingdom – Former President Barack Obama don blow whistle as e talk say Trump administration dey carry “violence against the truth” for their recent claim wey connect autism to Tylenol. This one no be just ordinary gist o, na serious matter wey fit affect many pipo.
For speech wey e give for O2 Arena on Wednesday, Obama talk say, “We get display of my successor for the Oval Office wey dey make claims wey don dey disproved since. The kind wahala wey dis go cause, especially for pregnant women and parents wey get autistic pikin, no fit underplay am.” (Ehn, na him sabi to come talk wetin dem no wan hear.)
Trump for his press conference come announce say FDA go soon warn doctors say Tylenol fit increase autism risk. Even as e brag about $50 million wey dem wan invest for autism research, the matter don scatter ground well well. Obama still talk say make we dey believe for science, even when e no sweet us.
