#ENDSARS: Mocheddah shades Ruggedman
Hours after rapper Ruggedman called out Nigerian celebrities for not standing in support of their compatriots who are being harassed and sometimes brutalised by SARS operatives, the lyricist who has now veered into fashion has been called out by female rapper Mochedda.
Ruggedman had earlier posted on social media saying; “Dear Nigerian entertainers, Some of these people being brutalised are your fans. Some are harrassed while coming from your shows. Speaking up for them will not end your career or stop benefits you get from wherever or whoever. They support you, return the favour.” #EndSARS

His comments however did not go down well with Mocheddah who replied on social media saying it is completely wrong for him to force his opinion on others.
She wrote; “It is completely wrong to force your beliefs and opinions on others…If you want to help, just help and stop looking to see if others are doing thesame. Focus on your cause and stop judging people that aren’t.”
Scores of entertainers and Nigerians alike have continued to decry the unpleasant experiences in the hands of officers of the Special Anti Robbery Squad (SARS) who unjustly harass and sometimes extort innocent citizens.
