Solomon Buchi blows hot at Daniel Regha

Shortly after Daniel Regha expressed his displeasure with Mercy Johnson’s body, Solomon Buchi shut him down. The writer condemned Regha for having an opinion about a married woman’s body without fully understanding what she might be going through.

Buchi then gave the example of late Black Panther actor Chadwick Boseman, who was trolled for losing a lot of weight, without people being aware that he was battling with cancer before his eventual death shortly after.

Solomon Buchi wrote:

“You’re silly. You don’t like how a married woman looks because she lost weight? She might be ill, depressed, going through stuff, but what matters to you is “what you like”. Stop commenting on people’s weight. The world bullied Chadwick Boseman for looking ill, not knowing he was battling stage 4 cancer. If you can’t be kind, just shut up.”
