Charly Boy challenges Odumeje to save Nigeria from ‘burning’

The former President of the Performing Musicians’ Association of Nigeria (PMAN), Charles Oputa aka Charly Boy, has urged controversial preacher, Chukwumeka Cyril aka Odumeje to use his power to save Nigeria.

He made the call after Odumeje chastised billionaire industrialist Aliko Dangote for not “heeding to his prophecy” concerning the latter’s refinery in the Ibeju-Lekki area of Lagos which caught fire about a month ago.

In a post on his official X handle, the eccentric entertainer asked the preacher to refrain from calling out Dangote because he has a lot of money and the hunger in the land does not affect him.

He wrote: “Dear Odumeje, we, Nigerians, have humbly come to you. Please can you stop the nation from burning…the economy is plummeting. We ask for your power in this desperate time of need.

‘‘Please, don’t pay any mind to Dangote. He has a lot of money, and the hunger in the land does not get to his side. That’s why he did not understand that he had to be humble before you.”
