Renowned Nigerian singer, Charles Oputa, aka Charly Boy, has taken a bold stance by criticizing the Minister of Arts, Culture, and the Creative Economy for her visit to the ailing veteran actor Zack Orji. Amidst national challenges, including ailing sectors and security concerns, Charly Boy questions the government's priorities, suggesting there are more significant issues that demand attention.
In a poignant expression of discontent, Charly Boy brings attention to what he deems as misplaced focus, stating, "Chronic attention seekers make we hear word. Nigeria currently has a bigger terminal problem wey pass Zack Orji." He emphasizes the actor's respected status as a Nigerian icon but underscores that Orji is not the least of the country's problems.
Charly Boy raises crucial questions about the impact of the minister's visit on substantial national issues. He challenges the government's agenda, asking, "How does dat visit bring down the price of petrol or the devilish rising cost of living?" The renowned singer draws attention to the tragic incident in Plateau state, where civilians were 'mistakenly' bombed by the Air Force, resulting in over 300 casualties. He highlights the lack of visitation or a day of national mourning for these victims.
In a sarcastic tone, Charly Boy advises the government on how to genuinely assist Zack Orji: "If una wan help Zack, carry am go abroad since na una strong supporter. National hospital is a mortuary ooooo."
This critique underscores Charly Boy's assertion that the government's attention is misdirected, urging them to prioritize addressing pressing national issues over symbolic gestures.
