Protests: It’s season of lies, don’t back down – Charly Boy advises Nigerian youths

Actor and singer Charly Boy has encouraged youth protesters in Nigeria to carry out their planned nationwide protests against corrupt government.

Charly Boy underlined that if persons in positions of authority are sure of their moral character, they ought to embrace criticism and inspection rather than stifle it.

He said that the government was already providing for Lagos people enough when he responded to a report that advised them to disregard the demonstration.

He retorted, saying the administration must have secrets because of its tactics to stifle dissident voices and evade responsibility.

He highlighted the importance of transparency and accountability in a true democracy, encouraging Nigerian youths to continue demanding change.

On his X handle, Charly Boy wrote:

“A Season of Lies, Wayo, Deceit, Propaganda and the more you Look………..

“If those in power are confident in their integrity, they should embrace scrutiny and protest, not suppress it. But when they resort to silencing dissenting voices and avoiding accountability, it’s clear they have secrets to hide. The ‘skeletons/cemeteries in their cupboard’ are a testament to their corruption and abuse of power.

“In a true democracy, governments must be transparent and answerable to the people. They should welcome criticism and engage in open dialogue, even when it’s uncomfortable. By doing so, they can earn trust and demonstrate their commitment to serving the public interest. But when they try to hide behind secrecy and intimidation, it’s a clear sign of guilt and a betrayal of the people’s trust.

“Nigerian youths don’t ever back down. If dem no fear us, dey can never respect us.

Nonsense. Dia fathers.”
