Show promoter PaulO has spoken out in support of music icon Davido, addressing the backlash the artist has faced over his comments on Nigeria’s economic challenges. Taking to social media, PaulO didn’t hold back, describing critics as “mad people” and urging them to leave Davido alone.
“Davido spoke the truth. Nigeria’s current economic state is so bad,” PaulO wrote, highlighting the struggles of local businesses and the departure of global companies from the country. He emphasized that the hardships are undeniable, and instead of attacking individuals, efforts should be directed towards solutions.
PaulO’s statement comes at a time when conversations about the country’s economic trajectory are heating up, with many citizens feeling the pinch of rising costs, unemployment, and dwindling opportunities. His message resonates with those calling for collective action and acknowledgment of the issues rather than blaming public figures for speaking out.
While some have applauded PaulO’s bold stance, others argue that celebrities and influencers have a role to play in fostering change beyond raising awareness. The debate continues: should public figures be held accountable for their influence, or are they merely messengers of the people’s plight?
