Nigerian singer and songwriter, Peter Okoye has expressed distaste after a fan called him out for comparing Nigeria to Dubai based on upcoming general election.

Just after the singer took to his Twitter handle, while on a Dubai trip, to urged Nigerians to vote wisely in the 2023 presidential election, a fan seem not to be in tune with Mr. P’s request.

He further stated that the Nigerian Government have denied her citizens many good things of life, but it should not be repeated in the coming government in the 2023 general election.

He wrote: “Anytime I just enter Dubia. Instead of me to enjoy I go just dey vex for our country with anger! Abeg no bi dsame 1960 we get independence?… God why? Why our government just dey deny us all of the good things for this life? Make we try get sense for 2023 General election

Reacting to tweet, a fan of his called out Mr. P for comparing Nigerian and Dubai, questioning what he has done with his money to develop the country among with other wealthy people.

The fan wrote: Leave election and politics out of this we have you and we have rich men and women that can change our country, what have you done with your money to develop Nigeria!!

Reacting to the comment, the singer stated that politics and wealth are two different things, noting that a rich man can only help some people.

Peter Okoye wrote: ”What have I done with my money? The one that your father gave me? You must be a joke! Politics and wealth na 2 different things here… A rich man can only help so many, but with Government and politics, you can affect a lot.. Stop being a coward! Go and get some sense.”
