Veteran entertainer and activist Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, has urged Nigerians to persist in their efforts to advocate for change following a successful initial day of nationwide protests.
His call to action came after thousands of citizens took to the streets, demanding better governance and accountability from the government.
In his statement, Charly Boy emphasized that the initial protest was just the beginning of a larger movement.
He encouraged citizens not to lose momentum and stressed the importance of maintaining pressure on the government to achieve meaningful reforms.
Charly Boy’s words reflect a commitment to keeping the spirit of the protests alive and ensuring that the authorities heed the public’s demands.
He highlighted the impressive turnout across several states on Monday, noting that the widespread participation underscored the public’s deep desire for change.
He described the large crowds as a powerful message to the authorities, signaling widespread dissatisfaction with the current state of affairs and a unified call for action.
Charly Boy’s call for continued activism underscores the crucial role of civic engagement in shaping the nation’s future.
He believes that by maintaining pressure, Nigerians can push for the necessary changes to create a more transparent and accountable government.
As the protests continue to gain momentum, Charly Boy’s message serves as both a rallying cry and a reminder of the work ahead.
His words highlight the power of collective action and the importance of perseverance in the face of challenges.
Charly Boy also took to the social media platform X to commend the youth: “Brave, strong, and determined Nigerian youths, you made me proud today.
“First, congratulations on a job well done. But our work has just begun. As many of us have awakened from our slumber, realising that the government does not care for us, we will not tolerate leaders who do not care for us.
“We must continue fighting to reclaim our stolen future. Let’s keep the pressure up because this corrupt government must understand that the tide is changing.
“They must never feel secure unless they start doing the right thing. The salvation of Nigeria lies in the hands of its exceptional youth. I salute you all,” he added.
