Popular singer, Ayodeji Bologun otherwise known as Wizkid, has revealed that he can’t be quiet on the ongoing movement against police brutality in Nigeria because the problem is agelong.
In an interview with American media executive, Kojo Ebro, the music star explained that Nigeria is a country with many challenges aside the police brutality.
According to Wizkid, insecurity, poverty, corruption, amongst others, are problems Nigerians have been struggling with for long.
His words: “I’m not stupid. Believe me, I’m going to speak. We see all of these things. We recognise these things and I want to say shout out to everybody that goes out to speak for themselves. I’m glad people are advocating for a real change.
“Just keep doing what you do, keep empowering people. Because, really, we need to make them understand that we can do things in our own way. Then, like I keep telling people, you cannot let your environment determine your end result.
“More so, like I tell my kids every day, the next generation needs to advance the change in our political environment. Yeah, I get emotional when I talk about this stuff and I love that. I love that brother. I’m talking about this a lot because it’s amazing to see that people are beginning to speak up and that’s what I learned.”
