- Charly Boy tells protesters that the fight for good governance is a fight for life.
- He urged protesters to get louder and go harder
Renowned entertainer, Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, has urged Nigerian youths to continue the ongoing nationwide EndBadGovernance protests.
In a recent post on Tuesday, Charly Boy emphasized that the fight for good governance is crucial for the well-being of citizens.
He expressed his confidence in the determination of Nigerian youths to address the challenges facing the country and emphasized the need to intensify the protests.
He acknowledged the difficult and entrenched nature of the issues at hand, highlighting the importance of perseverance and unity in overcoming the obstacles.
He wrote on X:
“My dear Nigerian Youths, I trust that by now you all know what we’re up against. We can never make an omelet without breaking eggs. The powers that be are demonically entrenched.
“We are led by people who are thieves, dishonest, insane, intolerable and don’t give a damn if we live or die. This is the fight of our lives and you guys are my bragging right.
“We can defeat this monster that has befallen us, we need to get louder and go pro max”.
The protests, which began last week, aim to address the high cost of living and demand action from the government to reduce prices of essential commodities.
Despite attempts to discourage the protesters, including appeals from President Bola Tinubu, demonstrators continued to take to the streets in several states to voice their demands.
Following alleged suppression by security forces on Monday, the turnout for the protests decreased across the country on Tuesday.
Recall that singer Spyro had called for ‘entertainment break’ amid the ongoing protest
In an Instagram post, Spyro also urged religious leaders to use their platforms to address the situation.
He expressed his concerns about the country’s current state and encouraged fellow celebrities to speak out.
He emphasized the need for collective action and hoped that the government would take notice.
