Some Nigerians on Twitter have criticised Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike for promising to give N10 million each to Burna Boy and other artistes who performed at Burna Boy’s homecoming concert in Port Harcourt on Saturday.

The video where the governor made the promise to the entertainers has since gone viral.

“All of you that have come today, the Rivers people and the Niger-Delta people that have come to perform, I am proud of you. All of you will go home with N10m each,” Mr Wike said.

Some social media users have found faults in the governor’s action. See reactions below:
