People I used to respect have changed’ — Simi speaks after tackling Keyamo over Social Media Bill
Nigeria’s R&B singer Simi, says that many people whom she used to respect have changed after attaining a status of influence. The 31-year-old vocalist said this in a tweet on Wednesday barely two days after she had slugged it out with Festus Keyamo, over his stance on the social media regulation bill.
“Lot of people I used to respect have changed a lot. Some found power and lost the plot. Some just got stupider,” she wrote. While Simi never established a connection as to who her rant is addressed to, the comment comes not long after she had challenged Keyamo for opining that it’s unacceptable for Nigerians to make “insensitive” posts on public officials.
