Nigerian legendary singer, Charles Oputa better known as Charly Boy has slammed the Minister of Arts and Culture over its visit to ailing veteran, Zack Orji.
Kemi Filani reported that Zack Orji is currently battling for his life and is in critical condition in the ICU of the National Hospital in Abuja.
Friends of the ailing actor who spoke to Linda Ikeji said he was rushed to the hospital some days after he slumped in the toilet, which has left him unable to take or walk.
Following the news, the Minister of Arts, Culture, and the Creative Economy, Barrister Hannatu Musawa visited him, after the First Lady of Nigeria, Remi Tinubu paid the veteran actor a visit at the hospital.
Giving an update on his health, Musawa revealed that the actor had undergone brain surgery after being transferred to a private hospital in Abuja on Tuesday. She appealed to Nigerians to show their support for the veteran, who she described as a national asset.
Reacting to the visit, Charly Boy noted how Nigeria has bigger terminal problem that is bigger than Zack Orji, yet the government is ignoring it to focus on the ailing actor. Advising them to carry him overseas since he is a proud supporter of the government, Charly Boy reiterated that Zack isn’t the least of our problems.
He questioned how the visits bring down the price of petrol or devilish the rising cost of living. He referred to the civilians who were killed during the Plateau bombing and yet there was no visitation or day of National mourning.
“Chronic attention seekers make we hear word. Nigeria currently has a bigger terminal problem wey pass Zack Orji.
Don’t get it twisted, He’s a respected Nigerian icon. his contributions are there for all to see.
Everyone including the factory-fitted mumu for this country know he’s the least of our problems.
How does dat visit bring down the price of petrol or the devilish rising cost of living?
Shey, no be civilians for Plateau state who were ‘mistakenly’ bombed by the Air Force. Over 300 casualties, dey don’t deserve visitation or a day of national mourning abi?
Madam, we mumu Nigerians get it, una lamba too much. Since una don grab am and are running with it, continue to be catching ur cruise, we already know the agenda of dis dysfunctional and grossly incompetent Owambe gofment of APC.
But dis too, shall pass.
If una wan help Zack, carry am go abroad since na una strong supporter. National hospital is a mortuary ooooo”.
