Things happen in Nigeria that just make you react one way or another, and Wizkid was feeling the comic side of things when he tweeted that the country’s government is a joke.

The pop star’s comment got people talking, with some agreeing, others disagreeing and few more wondering if he’d consider being president and what would happen if he actually did.
ALSO: The 10 things that will happen if Wizkid becomes president
This person cautioned him on making such comment, though.
As public figure pls tweet stuff like this with caution

Regardless, some saw nothing wrong with the comment.
If the political system of our country was developing as the music industry, we would have been far better than most countries but then smh!

Which would lead to other good things and less of a need to go abroad.
Sure !! There will be freedom, money, peace, and beautiful cities, no need to go abroad again !!
