“Nigerian Politicians have stolen and are still stealing billions and trillions from the Nation’s purse. Unfortunate enough as it is that there are Zero Consequences for these actions, it is torturous that the people whose treasury are being looted continue to defend Politicians who absolutely do not care about their existence.”

In another post, he asked,

“How can you comfortably loot public funds enough to change the standard of living of millions of the people you ought to serve selflessly? What type of greed and wickedness is this?”

“How exactly is the Country supposed to get better when our Politicians just want to steal!!! No integrity!!! No sense of purpose!! No accountability!!! Zero shame!!! Just hardened criminals in office!!! How did the people become so hopeless?”

Mr. Macaroni has consistently spoken out against Nigerian politicians and their treatment of the people.

On October 29, 2024, he reacted strongly to a viral video featuring former Rivers State Governor Nyesom Wike addressing citizens.

In his response, Mr. Macaroni expressed deep frustration and anger. Public officials’ mistreatment and disrespect of the people they should serve fuel his anger.

Outraged, he wrote,

“Nigerian politicians lack regard for Nigerians, and this is because they have never been accountable to the people. The other day the FCT Minister was addressing some Nigerians, and he said, “Are you stupid? Is it because I came down to talk to you? You are a civil servant!!!” What do you mean by, “Is it because I came down to talk to you? You are talking to the people that pay your salary!!!””

Grammy-nominated artist Davido sparked controversy during a recent interview on The Beat 96.1. This offers a sharp critique of Nigeria’s current economic landscape.

He advised Black Americans planning to return to Nigeria to reconsider their plans. He described the country as experiencing its most severe economic crisis following President Bola Tinubu’s reforms.

The singer highlighted the Nigerian entertainment industry. Particularly, Afrobeats is a crucial global export that elevates the nation’s international profile.

Despite acknowledging Nigeria’s abundant talent, Davido lambasted the country’s leadership, characterising it as fundamentally inadequate.

Following Davido’s interview criticising Nigeria’s economic condition, critics have lambasted the artist for his candid assessment of the nation’s financial challenges.

His comments sparked immediate debate about the country’s economic state and the role of public figures in national discourse.

In a television morning show, one of the hosts criticised Davido’s timing, noting that President Tinubu was simultaneously attending the G8 summit in Brazil to secure foreign investments.

“Education does not guarantee you knowledge and Davido is a prime example of that. Cus he speaks without rẽasoning”

The interview divided public opinion, with some Nigerians condemning his remarks as potentially damaging to the country’s global image.

Conversely, other Nigerians praised Davido’s commentary as an authentic representation of the nation’s economic struggles. They highlighted the growing economic pressures pushing millions into deeper poverty amid skyrocketing inflation.

Escalating the controversy, Davido alleged a coordinated effort to cancel his December concert in response to his interview.

He defiantly stated he would not be compelled to perform in Nigeria, echoing his history of challenging government narratives.

This is not Davido’s first confrontation with government supporters. During the 2020 EndSARS protests, he claimed external pressures forced him to temporarily leave the country due to his active participation.

The ongoing dispute underscores the complex interactions between Nigerian artists, economic challenges, and political discourse.

With Davido emerging as a vocal critic, he is willing to challenge prevailing narratives about the nation’s economic and political realities.
