If you are a Nigerian and you attend a concert hosted by any Nigerian artist this December, you are a foöl. I have not seen a completely useless industry like the entertainment industry here. The reason they remain relevant is that we don’t keep them on their toes. So they do as they like, come online to do giveaways whenever it pleases them, and flaunt their luxurious lifestyles and vehicles for you people to debate about who is richer and who drives more expensive cars. The radio silence from your celebrities is very intentional. Since Tinubu came into power, Wizkid, Burna Boy, Asake, Tems, Yemi Alade, Tiwa Savage, Ayra Starr, Rema, Adekunle Gold, Zlatan, BNXN, and EVERY other person in that industry have said absolutely nothing about the government. Not a single criticism, not even an attempt to encourage their fans to get their PVCs. Lmao, they can’t even publicly tell their fans to vote for a candidate because most of them are friends with people in Aso Rock. You see how I did not mention the likes of Davido, Olamide, Ajebo Hustlers, Teni, Dandizzy, and Duncan Mighty? These ones are not even subtle about their support for APC and Tinubu. They are either friends with ST, take APC gigs, or dine with Tinubu himself. If not for the fact that we are very unserious people, no one should be taking Davido seriously after that gimmick he pulled during the Osun State election. All of them in that industry don’t rate you people, especially those of you who act like fatherless children defending some of them on social media every time. The election is in January. Most of them will travel out of the country, then, after the election, they’ll come back to host shows, collect money from you people who are suffering, and come on stage at 3 a.m. after keeping you standing from 10 p.m. They might even kick some of you in the face. But I guess Nigerians have a humiliation kink. If you hold these people accountable and keep them on their toes, they will be on their best behaviour. But then, there’s nothing like cancel culture here anyway. Nigerian celebrities, pastors, and politicians are God’s favourites. They hit the jackpot by having people like you in their lives.
