- As the “10 Days of Rage” protest festers and flames across the streets, a boiling cauldron of anger has erupted from the crowds.
- Furious demonstrators are now turning their wrath towards celebrities who stayed away from the frontlines.
- They’ve vowed to launch a digital vendetta, declaring their intent to unfollow and cut ties with these stars.
- Their accusations are sharp and seething, branding these celebrities as self-serving and indifferent to the welfare of their fans, who feel abandoned and betrayed by those they once idolized.
The nationwide protests have reached a fever pitch as anger simmers over the silence of Nigerian celebrities amid the economic turmoil gripping the nation.
Tension crackled through parts of Nigeria on Thursday as the long-anticipated #EndBadGovernance demonstrations erupted across all 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja.
Today, August 3, 2024, marks the third day of what the organizers have branded the “#10DaysOfRage” — a relentless outcry against the status quo.
In the midst of this charged tension, a viral video has set the internet ablaze. It captures a seething mob of protesters lashing out at celebrities who have conspicuously remained mute, refusing to stand up and be counted in this battle for economic justice.
The enraged masses didn’t hold back. They called for a digital reckoning, pledged to unfollow and sever ties with any celebrity who has turned a blind eye to their plight and refused to speak out or show solidarity on the streets and social media.
The protesters’ ire is palpable as they denounce these stars as self-serving frauds who have betrayed the very people who fueled their rise to fame. They are rallying others to join in this boycott.
