Nollywood actor Prince Eke has slammed celebrities over their inability to call out the government. In an Instagram post, he said that most of them aren’t worth being influenced by and that he prefers watching Nigeria drown in corruption and bad governance. According to them, they keep quiet because they’re waiting for politicians to throw them a few peanuts so they can come and dance during campaigns. He pointed out that most of them would have been receiving royalties from the movies they acted in if the country were working. He admonished their fans and supporters not to be shocked when they see them standing beside our oppressors as they’re broke, desperate, and perfectly willing to sell their conscience to the highest bidder. “The earlier you understand that most of these so-called celebrities are not worth being influenced by, the better for you. Actors and musicians alike watched as Nigeria drowned in corruption and bad governance, and kept their mouths shut. Why? Because they are waiting for politicians to throw them a few peanuts so they can come and dance during campaigns. If Nigeria actually worked, many of them would still be earning royalties from movies they acted in decades ago. But instead of demanding a working system, they line up to be used by the same politicians destroying the country. So don’t be shocked when you see them standing beside our oppressors. Many of them are broke, desperate, and perfectly willing to sell their conscience to the highest bidder. After all, conscience no dey put food for their table. Ndi ara”. The actor had spoken out on the trend of people being intentionally lousy just to become popular on social media. He also ranted about how the internet now promotes lousiness. In another post, he had delivered a cautionary message to social media users, emphasizing the importance of self-care and personal well-being. The actor offered a clear reminder of why individuals should prioritize their health and issued them a warning. Back in January of 2024, the actor had revealed why men should cook for their family. He also further stated that he believes that a man’s maturity is demonstrated when he embraces the role of cooking for his family. Some years back, the ex-husband of singer Muma Gee had celebrated 8 years of surviving a kidnapper’s den. While sharing his ordeal, he noted how his colleagues and friends said he faked his own kidnapping to raise money for himself. According to him, he experienced hell on earth while with them. Refreshing your memory, Eke, had narrated his ordeal after spending a week in the lion’s den of kidnappers. According to Diamond celebrities, he was starved of food for three days and was badly brutalized and almost killed in the process of trying to escape but for divine intervention. Taking to his comment section, many of his followers rejoiced with him while one tackled him, advising him to check his behavior. Last year, Prince Eke, opened up about the toll that prayers from devoted admirers were taking on his well-being. He candidly addressed the issue of sleepless nights caused by the fervent prayers of those who saw him as their destiny helper.
