Popular Nigerian rapper and singer Tochukwu Ojogwu, popularly known as Odumodublvck, has described politics in Nigeria as “shambolic.”

Speaking on a recent episode of the BET Talks Podcast, the hip-hop star shared his thoughts on leadership and governance in Nigeria, stressing that power often corrupts even the most well-intentioned leaders.

“Politics in Nigeria is a shambolic scene like everywhere in the world. When you give man power, it never really goes as planned, regardless of whether the person is good or bad.

If the person is bad, bad people are going to make him worse. And if the person is good, you will have bad people trying to contaminate the good,” he said.

Odumodublvck also lamented that many Nigerians have been “brainwashed” into blaming only the president for the nation’s problems while ignoring other tiers of government.

“Nigerians have been so brainwashed that when there is a problem, the first thing they think about is the president.

You have your local chairman, councillor, senator, who are directly representing you, but you are holding only the president accountable for all the challenges our society is facing.

Other public officials should also be held accountable,” he added.

The rapper, known for his outspoken views and socially conscious lyrics, has often used his platform to comment on political and societal issues in Nigeria.
