Nigerians Now Run to VDM for Help Instead of Government – Skales Laments
Nigerian singer Skales, born Raoul John Njeng-Njeng, has raised an alarm over the increasing lack of trust in the government, highlighting how citizens now rely on activists rather than government institutions for justice.
In a post on X (formerly Twitter), Skales shared his frustration with the current state of affairs in Nigeria, stating that it is troubling that people no longer feel they can turn to the government for help but instead seek assistance from individuals like activist VeryDarkMan (VDM).
“It’s crazy what is going on in Nigeria … imagine where the citizens cannot run to the government but to a fellow citizen like VDM for help … smh!! God bless & protect him tho,” Skales wrote.
This sentiment echoes a growing trend in the country, where many citizens have turned to activists like VeryDarkMan in their search for justice amid widespread dissatisfaction with governmental responses.
