Nigerian musician Patrick Nnaemeka Okorie, who goes by the stage name Patoranking, has taken to his Twitter account to slam his colleagues over online giveaways, stating that those offline needed it more.
In his tweets, Patoranking said that he knew what it felt to be poor and still had to stay at home without any source of income.
Going hard on some of his colleagues who have become famous for giving out money online, the singer was obviously irked by their actions.
Since the coronavirus outbreak, the latest trend has been online giveaways from some celebrities. So, the music star took to his Twitter page on Tuesday, 31 March 2020, to slam them stating that those who didn’t have access to the Internet need help more and that they are the ones artists should be assisting.
“Instead Make we artist come together and contribute money to support people, Those ones wey no Dey online Oo, Wey understand wetin giveaway mean ( people for slums and ghetto) wey Dey disadvantaged due to this Covid-19 Lockdown, una Dey here Dey talk about this Vs This, Wise up,” he tweets on his Twitter account.
