“If the government gives you 50 million or 100 million, think about what that money will do for millions of poor masses.

“People are seriously suffering in Nigeria. People are homeless, they don’t even know what their next meal will be. Think about them when you decide to extend your hands to collect bribes from our greedy politicians.

“Nigerian celebrities, stop collecting bribes from these politicians and start lending your voices,” he said.
