Popular activist VeryDarkMan has come out to blast Afrobeats legends Davido, Wizkid, and Burna Boy for lavishly spending heavily on expensive cars while many Nigerians are struggling.
This is coming after Burna Boy’s recent purchase of a N3.5 billion sports car, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, he can only question Davido, Burna Boy and Wizkid about what they’ve done to positively impact their communities amid the hardship because all they do is prioritize displays of wealth over making meaningful contributions to the welfare of their fellow citizens.
He slammed all 3 artists for constantly seeking public validation by flaunting flashy luxuries instead of making an actual impact with their wealth and celebrity status.
His words, “Don’t you people read the room? You people are not the government, but I have to say this. Let me start with you Davido cause na you I know well well; na you be my guy.
The state where you come from, what can you beat your chest to say that you have done for the people of Osun state.
What is your own contribution to the growth of Nigeria. All you people do is to show wealth because you know Nigerians worship money, una go waka for road them go hail una, una go throw some small small change so that people go feel say una be odogwu.
You people are nothing. Three of una no get use to us…”
WOW.
