According to media personality Do2dtun, Nigerians shouldn’t wait for famous people to speak out against insecurity.
He wrote on his X handle that Nigerians criticize public figures who speak up and also call out those who don’t.
According to Do2dtun, holding the government responsible is a shared duty that shouldn’t be delegated to a small group.
“The ones that speak up, you bash them into depression. Now it has now become a bandwagon of set of people who just do it to be able to move in their lives in peace or don’t at all to have peace. You have insulted them into oblivion. Let everyone use their platform. Nigeria do not treat them differently. It is not JUST their duty to hold the government accountable. It is our DUTY. Face the ones that sold you out.”
“Nigerians we are our biggest problem. We are so traumatized that we only look for people to attack over a disease that affects us all. We look for the cure with the wrong people, in the wrong places. A herbalist can only proffer a solution but he won’t use it on your behalf. Anything you see after his prescription , na only you go feel am when e burst. What’s sickening is you will see people that don’t do anything with their platforms but attack those that do. It’s HYPOCRISY of the highest order.”
In conclusion, accountability is a collective responsibility that affects us all, regardless of our status or fame. While celebrities may have an upper hand due to their platforms and ability to voice out more publicly, the truth remains that everyone is impacted by governance and societal actions.
Each of us has a role to play in holding authorities accountable and ensuring transparency, because ultimately, a responsible government benefits us all.
