"Bill Gates? Of all the people. Man, some of y’all will sell your souls for clout and cash. That’s the same Bill Gates whose hands aren’t clean when it comes to the exploitation of Africa and shady global agendas. Music should uplift, not give platforms to people whose wealth was built on the suffering of others."

"People don’t like rich people Why?"

"Madness in 4K — all in the name of creativity. MI wants Africa to survive, but hasn’t made one tangible comment about the killings in Jos, Benue, or even his own state, Taraba. They say charity begins at home — but in Nigeria, home is the last place we look."
Chiefosplug said:
"These bill gate. No go leave Africa alone. After all the engineered killings."
