Nigerian politician and ex-partner of actress Nkechi Blessing, Opeyemi Falegan, has stirred up social media with his bold claims about his contributions to empowerment initiatives.
Reacting to a viral video in which a man criticized Nigerian music heavyweights Wizkid, Davido, and Burna Boy for allegedly neglecting their fans despite their immense wealth, Falegan sided with the man’s perspective. The man in the video argued that these celebrities often prioritize luxury lifestyles over meaningful support for their followers.
Falegan didn’t hold back, stating:
“You have spoken well. I have done more empowerment than any of the three put together, and the facts are clear.”
This statement quickly sparked mixed reactions online, with users both questioning and applauding his stance.
One user, oj.teq, joked: “If you sef share your money, he no go bad sha since you na go tell people wetin dem go use der own money do.”
Another, kingofficialfatalist2, added: “I no know which person make I swear for: whether na honourable with no constituency or the guy wey dey jam talk.”
Meanwhile, a supporter, angelicangelblog, praised Falegan, writing: “Honourable my boss, you have done more than them, even more than the politicians in Nigeria. God will continue to bless you, boss.”
The conversation highlights the growing expectation for celebrities and public figures to give back to their communities, a topic that often fuels debates online. While Falegan’s claims may raise eyebrows, they’ve certainly kept his name in the headlines.
