A rising artist in the music business, Portable Omoolalomi, stated his disdain of Nigerians' celebration of the Super Eagles' victory against South Africa. He thinks that while everyone is having fun, people are ignoring how terrible things are in the nation.
In his analysis, Portable outlined a number of urgent problems that Nigeria is facing, including as crumbling infrastructure, rising exchange rates, environmental damage, and widespread famine. He underlined that although a large number of Nigerians are enthralled with their country's football wins, a sizable section of the populace is experiencing hunger and financial hardship.
Portable questioned why sporting accomplishments should be celebrated when underlying issues are unresolved. He said that the same zeal should be used toward bettering the nation's economic and social situations rather than putting football above addressing societal issues.
The performer advised Nigerians to focus their energies on pressuring the government to be held accountable. In order to push for significant change and hold leaders accountable for their transgressions, he advocated for group action. The need of people mobilization and active participation in addressing problems like hunger, unstable economies, and ineffective government was underscored by Portable.
In his own words, Portable stated: "How many of you have eaten to your satisfaction? Dollar don high, situation no good, road no good, we have bad road and bad environment. Hungry wan kill us, so what is making you happy? You are shouting ‘Up Nigeria ‘, wetin go up in Nigeria? So make the economy dey rise dey go? Make hungry dey rise. What is making you happy? Is it the cup you want to eat? The energy you guys are using to do Up Super Eagles, why can’t you use it to chase hunger away? Don’t worry o, go carry your last card watch football. The energy you guys use to come out for football, use it to come out for government, fire them, drag them. Na so una promote Grammy, we didn’t win, now we are promoting football, May God allow us win it. Come out and block the roads, and stop sapa."
Finally, Portable Omoolalomi's comments serve as a reminder of how critical it is to put the interests of the country ahead of fleeting sports triumphs. He urges Nigerians to come together and demand constructive change from their leaders, advocating for a change in emphasis toward tackling the underlying causes of social issues.
