"Nigeria my country. Please. Let us get our priorities straight. I want my children and grandchildren to see Nigeria the way we see the western world. We die every day in the hands of the police. We are robbed of our human rights daily, our recycled politicians don't give a fuck about us. We have real-life issues that we need to channel our energy to. I'm begging you! Please! Let us save ourselves. I don't even like the internet because of the hopelessness for my people. We are kings and queens, originators and creators, gods of the earth! Let's stop bullshitting here please," he wrote.
