Why I no longer have an opinion on the state of the nation – Rudeboy
Popular Nigerian musician, Rudeboy, also known as King Rudy, has ignited a firestorm of controversy with his recent statement, “Let them run the country how they want to.” The singer’s nonchalant attitude towards the current state of governance in Nigeria has sparked outrage across the nation.
The controversial remark, made during an interview, seems to be a dismissive stance on the average Nigerian’s challenges, including economic hardship, insecurity, and poor leadership.
Many Nigerians have taken to social media to express their disappointment and frustration with Rudeboy’s comments, accusing him of being insensitive to the plight of the masses.
As the controversy continues to rage, many fans are calling out Rudeboy for his perceived indifference, while others defend the singer, arguing that he can have his opinion and that his statement should not be overanalyzed.
The timing of Rudeboy’s statement is particularly sensitive, coming just weeks before the proposed nationwide protest slated for August 1. The protest aims to draw attention to the country’s pressing issues, and Rudeboy’s comments have only added fuel to the fire.
