Ooni of Ife, Oba Adeyeye Ogunwusi, Ojaja II, has called for the scrapping of Big Brother Naija Show days after Charly Boy did the same.
Recall that days ago, Singer, Charly Boy took to his Twitter page to slam youths while calling Nigerian Government to scrap the Big Brother Naija Show.
Ooni Of Ife has joined Charly Boy in calling for the show to be scrapped because it misrepresents the Nigerian youths.
While addressing the youths on Wednesday, Ooni Of Ife seemed to be reading his message; which was quite similar to that of Charly Boy’s via his phone on International Youth Day.
Oba Adeyeye said, “Nigerian youths are fond of accusing and abusing our leaders. Stop abusing them. Contribute your own quota. Let’s wear our thinking caps and begin to act like the real future leaders that we are.
In the last general election, the total number of votes cast was around 27 million while over 170 million people voted during the 2019 Big Brother Naija reality show. This is a practical reality of who Nigerian youths are and where our priorities lie as Nigerians.
The funny side in all of these is that we still go to bed, have a good sleep and wake up with the hope to meet a Nigeria we didn’t create.
Nigerian youths! Nigerians!! Nigerian youths!!! Unfortunately, every time I talk about this kind of attitude, everyone just laugh and move on. What kind of nation are we building? When people say this country, or what kind of country is this, they’re indirectly saying these people – it is the people that make a country; so what kind of Nigerian youths are we?”
He added that a new reality tv show that will add values to the Nation should be sponsored.
