Nigerian Rapper Calls Out Celebrities for Supporting Bad Governance
Popular Nigerian rapper, Vector Tha Viper, has spoken out against Nigerian celebrities who have been vocal about their support for politicians and parties. In a recent social media post, Vector warned that these celebrities are putting their own fans and followers at risk by associating themselves with bad governance.
In recent years, more Nigerian celebrities have gotten involved in partisan politics, either by openly declaring their support for politicians or joining parties. However, Vector believes that this involvement is misguided and will ultimately hurt the people who look up to these celebrities for inspiration.
According to Media Talk Africa, Vector berated these celebrities for taking sides against the reality of their own fans and followers, and warned that the hardship faced by many Nigerians will eventually affect them if something is not done to stop it. On his X handle, Vector wrote a blunt message to these celebrities, urging them to reconsider their stance and instead focus on supporting initiatives that benefit the people.
This criticism comes against the backdrop of an ongoing nationwide protest against the high level of hardship in Nigeria. As the country continues to grapple with economic and social challenges, Vector’s call to action has sparked an important conversation about the role of celebrities in addressing these issues.
In his post, Vector emphasized the importance of celebrities using their influence to promote positive change, rather than simply parroting the views of politicians or parties. By speaking out against bad governance and advocating for the welfare of the people, celebrities can play a crucial role in shaping the future of Nigeria.
With many Nigerians struggling to make ends meet, Vector’s message is a timely reminder that celebrities have a responsibility to use their platforms for good. As the country works towards a better future, it is hoped that more celebrities will follow Vector’s lead and prioritize the well-being of their fans over partisan politics.
