Nigerian popular actress Destiny Etiko has expressed her frustration with the public’s enthusiasm for the return of Big Brother Naija, despite the ongoing economic hardships and insecurity in the country.
She voiced her concerns, highlighting the contrast between the show’s popularity and the realities currently faced by a lot of Nigerians.
She wrote, “E don red for our country and I still dey see some people dey happy about BBN. Hmmmmm nawa o Oh una still get enough money for DATA Abi? If you guys do not complain, then who am I to do so? I am majorly concerned about the poor masses, though. That you can survive does not mean that everyone can. Crime is now happening everywhere, insecurity has become the order of the day and everyone is literally calm. THE EARLIER, THE BETTER.”
The actress questioned how people can be so taken away in entertainment when basic necessities and security are major issues. She pointed out that while some Nigerians seem to have the means to enjoy such shows, others are struggling with daily survival.
