Twitter knocks Nigerian celebrities for mocking fans

April 8, 2020

Nigerian Twitter users have begun criticising some Nigerian celebrities whom they accuse of mocking their fans.

Singers, Burna Boy and Naira Marley, comedian AY and media personality, Toke Makinwa, have especially come under fire for implying that Nigerian youths do not hold their leaders accountable in the same way they clamoured for the arrest of Nollywood actress, Funke Akindele, after they defied the coronavirus lockdown by hosting a birthday party for her husband, JJC Skillz, on Saturday.

See some of the tweets below:

Nigerian celebrities will never like Twitter. They prefer Instagram. Instagram is one large ass-licking competition party. Twitter NG is respecter of no person. Even if you sit at God's right hand, if you misbehave, you are dragged.

From Naira Marley to Burna Boy and AY, the Nigerian celebrity has a shared condescension for the ordinary Nigerian with the Nigerian political elite.

They don't let slip any opportunity to remind him of his poverty and how obnoxious and barely tolerable he is.

Lmao "use that energy to hold YOUR politicians accountable" as if they aren't your politicians too.

Nigerian celebrities think their luxury will bail them from the effect of bad governance…Lol.

U're here with us bros. You'll feel it too. Sooner or later you go feel am.

Irrelevant Nigerian celebrities call themselves "rich", but they go about kissing the ass of every politician in the country so they can get breadcrumbs that drop from the table like a dog and now they can't call out their ineptitude because person no dey shit where e dey chop.

Nigerian Celebrities are so used to Instagram where people mostly lie to them in their comments because of posted picture.

When they come on twitter and actually have to have sense, you realize that many idiots have been empowered by the masses.

No misplaced priority here. No Nigerian celebrity get the abuse politicians receive daily from Nigerians. We all know the insults are not enough to effect any change. But Nigerian youths do have the same energy for politicians. The problem is, that energy is not enough https://t.co/UTt4x6qMR5
