Nollywood actor Adams Kehinde, also known as Lege Miami, ignited outrage after calling out Nigerians who did not celebrate President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s birthday.
In a video circulating on social media, the actor expressed unhappiness with Nigerians’ silence on the president’s special day.
“Today is our president’s birthday, and you all are quiet, acting like you don’t know. It will not be well with you all. Long life and prosperity to you, President of Nigeria till continuity,” he said.
Lege made the statement while honouring Tinubu’s 74th birthday with meaningful words, and it instantly gained attention online.
Many Nigerians took his speech seriously, and they flooded the comment sections with criticism.
Some criticised his statements as superfluous, while others said that citizens should not be forced to celebrate political leaders, particularly those whose governments they believe have made life difficult economically.
Social media users reacted with a combination of humour and frustration.
One wrote, “Na my papa? Make I celebrate person wey make life hard for me.” Another added, “Hungry fool, you’re definitely part of Nigeria’s problem.”
