Nigerian singer Spyro [/b]shared his thoughts as he suggested an entertainment break amid the nationwide protest and called on religious leaders to intervene.
On his Instagram story, the singer stated that he believes it is quite insensitive to post anything entertaining at the moment as the country is bleeding and everyone is affected. He expressed that in light of the current crisis, maintaining focus on entertainment could be seen as disregarding the gravity of the situation.
He asserted that he feels the pain of the average man and has no intentions of keeping mute. Spyro called on everyone on the platform to lend their voice and hoped the government [/b]would listen this time. He emphasized that the collective voice of the people might influence the government to take meaningful action and address the concerns being raised.
He also urged men of God to speak up, noting that their people need them at this time. According to him, the current situation calls for action rather than just prayers. He referenced Biblical times when men of God were instrumental in challenging the government and advocating for the people's welfare, and expressed hope that contemporary religious leaders would follow this example.
In his words: “I personally think it is quite insensitive to post anything entertainment rn… The Country is bleeding and we all are affected whether or not we agree to that fact. I am very much affected m,I particularly feel the pain of the average man and I don’t intend to keep mute so I am calling on everyone with a platform to speak up… I am hoping that the government will see our tears this time and take actual steps for the betterment of the people #GODBLESSNIGERIA
“I wish Men of God can speak up for the people now as it was in the days of old …This is not a time to PRAY, it is a time to ACT, even the Bible says “FAITH without WORKS is dead.” In the Bible days, men of God were strong tools that God used to challenge the government and liberate the people. MOSES, your people need you now.”
