Popular rapper Vector Tha Viper has called on Nigerian celebrities to cease their support for bad governance, emphasizing that their actions could have long-term consequences for themselves and their fans.
Recent reports highlight a growing trend where more Nigerian celebrities have become involved in partisan politics or publicly endorsed politicians. Vector Tha Viper has expressed strong disapproval of this trend, criticizing celebrities who align themselves with politicians while ignoring the struggles faced by their fans and the general public.
In a recent post on his X handle, Vector expressed his concern about the potential fallout from such political alignments. He warned that the hardship and economic difficulties currently affecting the nation would eventually have repercussions for those who are seen as supporting ineffective or corrupt governance. Vector wrote: “To the celebrities taking sides against the reality of their own people/fans, it may be best to repent before you become the only reachable option if the hardship doesn’t stop. Stop supporting bad governance.”
His remarks come amidst ongoing nationwide protests that reflect widespread frustration over the severe economic hardships experienced across the country. The protests have been a platform for ordinary citizens to voice their discontent with the current state of governance, and Vector’s comments underscore a growing sentiment among some public figures who feel that their peers should be more attuned to the needs and realities of the people they represent.
