Nigerian veteran singer, Charles Oputa, better known as Charly Boy, has described Nengi‘s political appointment as a “misplacement of moral priority.”
Rebecca ‘Nengi‘ Hampson, an ex-housemate of the 2020 Big Brother Nigeria (BBNaija) reality TV show was appointed as a senior special assistant (SSA) to Douye Diri, governor of Bayelsa state few weeks ago. She was also appointed as an ambassador for the girl child as well as the face of Bayelsa. (Read Here).
Expressing his displeasure on his social media page, Charly Boy shared a picture of a first class graduate of Bayelsa state and berated the state’s governor for not honouring and recognizing her.
“THE IRONY OF THE NIGERIAN STATE,” the musician and activist wrote on Instagram. The young lady with white is a first class graduate of the Niger Delta university, Faculty of Law, as well as a first class graduate Nigeria Law School… she was not Honnored by her Bayelsa State Government…
“In another development, a girl, who is alleged to be a Third Class Graduate and a participant(A Runner Up) in the “Big Brother Naija” show , was given a State Reception and was also Honnored with a Government Appointment and was also declared the Role Model to the Bayelsa State Girl Child ( the Face of the Bayelsa Girl Child). What an irony and a misplacement of moral priority!
“Meanwhile, Congratulations to our Lawyer, the True Face of the Bayelsa Girl Child, as far as I and every other realist, is concerned,” he concluded.
