Many Humans Evil, Opportunistic – Singer, Joeboy Blows Hot

Joseph Akinwale, the popular Nigerian contemporary R&B singer, who is also known as Joeboy has reacted to the fuel subsidy removal.

When President Bola Ahmed Tinubu reaffirmed that Nigeria’s long-standing subsidy regime had ended in his inaugural speech on Monday, many were thrown into ‘panic buying’ with many filling stations in Lagos and Abuja closed while those opened experienced long queues.

Like other celebrities who have lent their voice on the matter, Joeboy asserts the citizen not the government are their own problems.

He explained the government only just announced their plan to scrap fuel subsidy and Nigerians swung into action, using the window to oppress other by hoarding the petroleum product.

The 26-year-old singer suggested many were opportunists, imagining what formidable force we could be as a people if we possessed the sense of community.

“Blame the government all you want but a lot of us as humans are just evil and looking for the slightest chance to take advantage of and oppress the next man dem say dem go remove fuel subsidy (dem never comot am o) niggas started hoarding fuel”, wrote the Banku Music / emPawa Africa artiste.

“Imagine we all had a sense of community as a people government set no go fit oppress, and they know this that’s why they plant seeds of division with religion poverty and tribalism, open your eyes.

“The main idea of government in general is “control” and “influence” and it’s hard to control or influence people who are United educated and financially independent.”
