Social Critic, Reno Omokri and some fans are among the people who had something to say about the GoFundMe page raised for disqualified BBNaija Lockdown housemate, Erica Nlewedim.
Omokri and some fans took to their Twitter page to air their thoughts about the fund that is being raised for the evicted housemate as they lamented over how Nigerian youths have lost their voices on an array of issues currently confronting the country.
According to Omokri, it took just five hours for some youths to raise N5m for Erica but they couldn’t raise the same money in five months to unseat President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2019 elections.

Noting that Nigerian youths deserve the current president, the lawyer stated that they were not able to resist the increase in price of fuel and electricity tariff.
According to him, youths are always looking for people to act on their behalf when it comes to important issues but act for themselves when it comes to frivolous matters.
- Read his statement below and other Twitter reactions:
“In 5 hours, Nigerians raised $15,000 for #BBNaija’s Erica. In 5 days, the same Nigerians have not been able to raise any resistance to General Buhari’s increase of fuel and electricity costs. If you talk, some Nigerians will say come and lead the protest. Who led them to raise a record breaking $15,000 in 5 hours? We can act spontaneously for irrelevancies, but we are looking for others to act for us on relevant things! Nigeria deserves General Buhari!” Omokri wrote.
