Fans react to Omah Lay's post

Legit.ng compiled the reactions of social media users:

@nestaseyi:

"The next tweet will no doubt be another “project” announcement. They keep running Nigeria like a farm, and they’ll still find something to say simply to show their fans they weren’t silent."

@callmetunde_:

"Faith alone won’t fix Nigeria. We must hold leaders accountable, demand reforms, and rise together—only then will things change."

@hollypizzu001

"Facts. At this point, it’s clear that prayers without action will not fix Nigeria. We can believe in God, but we must also hold leaders accountable, demand reforms, and stop normalizing corruption and insecurity. Until we, the citizens, rise with one voice, nothing will change."

@Realmaxween:

"Yes!!! Until we cancel tribalism, cancel religion and stand as one against these animals in human forms, Nigeria, you and I will never know peace"

@Sanusi_eduacted:

"We are only sure that there is a Creator. Just wake up, thank the creator and carryout your daily activities in love for the creator, yourself and your neighbor. Don't do anything that you would not like another to do to you. That the summary of life"
