July 29, (THEWILL) – Legendary singer, Innocent Idibia, aka 2Baba, has advised Nigerians to hold state actors accountable for their responsibilities in office.
He also added that state actors shy away from their responsibilities, while blaming the president for the country’s woes.
The singer was responding to the threat to impeach President Muhammadu Buhari over the country’s security troubles.
Lawmakers, last Wednesday, gave the president six weeks to address insecurity or face impeachment proceedings.
Lai Mohammed, minister of information, stated that the government was working hard to address the matter.
Responding to the development, 2Baba mocked the senators, lawmakers and state governors, who he argued would rather remain in their own comfort zone and blame the president for all of the country’s collective failures.
He shared a video on his Instagram page, where he charged citizens to hold other state actors including the inspector-general of police accountable for undesirable situations that play out within their spheres of influence.
“The whole news just got me cracking up, man. Nigeria is supposed to be called Comedy Central.
“They want to impeach Buhari based on one reason.
“It’s crazy that everyone just hides behind this convenient space and points at the president for every small thing, even as we have governors, senators, house of reps, inspector general of police, commandants and citizens.
“Everybody is shying away from their responsibility and hiding behind their convenient space. Everything is about the president. It’s mad, man.”
He added that citizens should know their lawmakers and hold them accountable for the constituency money they receive.
“Know your Hon, Reps and Senators. Ask them what they have done and will do with constituency money for constituency projects. Vote wisely. E don Red!”, he stated.
