Latest Political Prostitutes In Town – Etcetera Blasts Naija Entertainer In New Article

Singer turned columnist Etcetera
comes for all the entertainers who
have lend their voices and support
to politicians in Nigeria.

Read the article below…

Some say Afro Candy is a
prostitute. Some say she’s not or
at least, not yet.

A few others say she’s a porn star, which is not in the same league as prostitution.
Porn stars are taxed, prostitutes
are not.

So Afrolicious baybay, you have to up your game to get into the league of prostitutes, if it is what you really desire.

My suggestion would be; instruct your agent or booker to get you appearances in any of the
political campaign videos, so you
can put to use that floppy behind
your mama gave you. And if you
are lucky enough, you can get
cameos and wiggle that thing
around the aspirants themselves.
You have to get your bum (sorry
your hands) bloodied to earn the
highly coveted “Political prostitute” tag.

Now my Candilicious Afrolistic baybay, these are a few names of the latest political prostitutes in the
country: Olamide, Banky W, Don
Jazzy, Flavour, Duncan Mighty, D
banj, Mercy Johnson, Ibinabo, Ini
Edo, Mama Gee, Naeto C, Joseph
Yobo, Daddy Showkey, Kanu
Nwankwo, and Sammie Okposo.
I have been asked several times if
our celebs should get involved with
politics.

But today, let me push the same question in different words to
everyone reading this article. Do
politicians making affiliations with
celebs prompt you to vote for them?
For me, it’s a definite No. Nigerians
are not influenced by celebs to
indulge in certain acts because
their favourite celeb says so.

For instance, I like Kate Henshaw but expecting me to vote for a
candidate she supports in the
forthcoming elections is like asking
me to start buying a particular milk
brand because Don Jazzy endorsed
it. Puh-leez, things like that don’t
cut it here in Naija. Naija is a
different kettle of fish compared to
what is obtainable in places like the
US.

The politicians using celebs for
their campaigns should ask
themselves what on earth the
average person has got in common
with Dbanj.

He has millions and he
may never have to lift a finger
again in his life if he so desires.
And you think the boys in
Okokomaiko who are not smiling
will listen to his unrealistic rants
on TV and radio? Using a celeb for
election campaigns is as stupid as
the political aspirants themselves
dancing in their campaign musical
videos. Imagine Jimmy Agbaje and
Ambode dancing in their campaign
videos? Ok, I am sorry, no
imagination is needed. I feel sorry
for the politicians that Nigerians
are not fooled by all the media
images of celebs pushed at them
every day on TV. It has become so
much that we can’t tell the
difference anymore between
political campaign videos and the
Nigerian musical videos.
The only cocktail of politics and
celebrity that the masses are bound
to endorse is that of creating useful
awareness that will benefit the
larger society. People like Bono
have political views which bring
attention to real, humanitarian
issues that transcend the
established political doctrines and
have nothing to do with producing
those plastic karaoke like political
jingles our entertainers are paid to
produce. Those entertainers who
see nothing wrong in frolicking
with politicians will say I am
speaking from a misguided
perspective. Go ahead, defend your
support for that politician. Tell me
you are campaigning for change.
You can’t fool anyone but
yourselves.

Hey, my Afro Candilicious baybay,
you go ahead with your trade okay?
Don’t let the criticisms of your
fellow entertainers bother you
anymore.

Tell them your porn is definitely a kinder and gentler version when placed side by side with their political prostitution.

Now, good day ladies and
gentlemen. Please don’t forget to
tip the waitress on your way out.
