You cannot rule a country where citizens are mentally weak - Lagbaja says as he celebrates his birthday
Veteran singer Lagbaja has been on a low key in the country's entertainment scene. But this has not, in anyway, made him passive to the present plights of the nation. On January 18 which just happens to be his birthday, he has taken to his Instagram page to weigh in on the crisis of leadership in Nigeria.
Lagbaja who took to his Instagram page to make his observation and give his opinion blatantly stated that the leaders are not the only problem of the nation. The citizens are also part of the issue the nation is facing.
According to the folk musician, it is quite impossible to rule a nation where its citizens are emotionally and mentally weak. For the Afrobeat giant, leadership becomes quite impossible in such a situation.
Even more, Lagbaja also insinuated that a country such as this is bound to loose a war when it happens. In a caption, the veteran singer told his fans to translate his message so that as many people can read it. He also thanked many for their birthday wishes.

belleciane: "Forget, war is too far fetched. it makes them the best tools for chaos , to be manipulated by any political class or entity to ANY END. A little propaganda would do to set their minds ablaze against the class. But I think politicians love it like that because for now it is working to their own benefit."
