"Wachana na politics uta regret," the fan wrote, which translates to telling her to stay away from politics because she would regret it.
However, Lulu appeared unfazed by the warning and responded with a brief but firm statement.
"Acha ni regret," she replied, meaning that she was willing to experience the consequences herself.
Her response attracted attention, with the exchange highlighting the growing conversation surrounding her possible transition from journalism to politics.
