“I think Davido sent that message to Donald Trump because we are not truly practising democracy in Nigeria. We are not doing what a democratic society should do. I just hope this administration does better than the previous one,” he said.

Nigerian comedian, DeeOne has advised the Inspector General of Police, IGP Tunji Disu to stop making careless statements that can lead to protest against the Force.

DeeOne gave the advice on Thursday while reacting to reports of the IGP cautioning Nigerians against video recording policemen on duty.

While asking Nigerians to exercise restraint when exercising their rights to record police officers on official duty, Disu noted that the trend is demoralising to police officers.

Reacting to the development, DeeOne warned the IGP against making careless statements that can trigger unrest in the country.

He noted that his statement can encourage some indiscipline officers to keep intimidating Nigerians on the road.

While advising the IGP to stop making careless statements to impress the police, DeeOne urged him to focus more in ensuring that there’s harmony and synergy between the police and the citizens rather than making statements that can stumble the entire country.

Speaking in a viral Instagram video, he said, “Very soon, there might be another #End SARS protest in Nigeria. Do you know that the Inspector General of Police, IGP Disu made a careless statement yesterday. Saying that citizens should not record police. He says they should allow police to do their job.

“I beg, which kind country we dey run? Don’t forget that what even started End SARS in the first place was viral videos of police victimising citizens. The IGP needs to understand that many of the police officers on the road are not mentally ok. They just carry guns but many of them are drunk.

“So if you really care about the citizens of your country, why should we not record the officers in public places? It’s for the safety of the citizens. Police are supposed to have body cameras. Some reasonable officers will even be the first to record you before you start to record them.

“I went to the police station the other day, one of the officers don high. And his colleagues are aware. They were telling me to leave him because he’s already high. Imagine that kind of person on the road with a gun. These are the little, little things that can trigger a country.

“That’s why I’m saying this IGP, we no understand you. You are not doing well. You are not doing well. If it starts now, I hope you will be able to handle it? Please, we love this country so much, we don’t want this country to stumble. A statement like this can stumble the entire country.

“And I want to appreciate the NBA for calling the IGP to order. Please stop making careless statements to impress the police. As a good IGP, your job is to ensure that there’s harmony and synergy between the police and the citizens. No police officer is greater than citizens, once they wear that uniform they feel they are greater than you.”

Nigerian media personality, Daddy Freeze, has stated that people don’t need to serve or worship God to become rich.

Daddy Freeze stated this during an Instagram Live video on Wednesday night while reacting to Peller’s remarks at Pastor Tobi Adegboyega’s church in the UK.

DAILY POST reports that TikToker Peller had explained that while others were praying at night, he was sleeping at home, yet God decided to bless him.

Reacting to Peller’s comment, Daddy Freeze said wealth doesn’t necessarily depend on religious beliefs.

While noting that people don’t have to acknowledge God to be rich, he questioned why many committed Christians remain among the poorest.

He said, “When you try to connect worshipping God to possession, you take for granted the sacrifice of the biblical Stephen, when you believe that if you pray to God, He gives you money.

“It’s the stupidity of our parents. They prayed to God but did they have money? As long as you attribute money to God, you will remain poor and broke. God doesn’t give people money. If he did, the top 10 richest people in the world would have been born again Christians.”

While arguing that money comes from creating value, he added, “You can wake up everyday and say, I hate God, I hate God, I hate God, and still be rich. You don’t need to even acknowledge that God exists to be rich.”

Watch him speak.
