Adeyanju to Charly Boy: If Protests Are Not Powerful, Why Did They Pay You to Betray Our Cause?

Human right activist, Deji Adeyanju has said protest remains the most potent tool of effecting change all over the world.

This is a reaction to a statement made by entertainment maverick and human right activist, Charles Oputa popularly known as Charly Boy. who said he will stop protesting over national issues as it cannot change political leaders at all levels. Charly Boy pointed that successive Nigerian political leaders had remained insensitive to the plights of ordinary Nigerians over the years and were not moved by such protests to hold them accountable.

It could be recalled that the duo is not in good terms after Adeyanju accused Charly Boy of compromise by receiving gratification from current Minister of State for Niger Delta Affairs, Festus Keyamo.

Adeyanju pointed that the Nigerians realize the power of protests and come out in their numbers is the day their suffering and oppression ends.

“Heard 9 digit fraudster says protests cannot make our leaders change. If protests are not powerful, why did they pay him to betray our cause? PROTESTS remains the most potent tool to effect change all over the world. Martin Luther King, Ghandi & everyone used protests. It works

“The day Nigerians realize the power of protests & come out in their numbers is the day their suffering & oppression ends. Imagine 5 million Nigerians out on the street demanding the same thing, that’s the end of the road for the oppressors. It has worked everywhere,” he tweeted.

Recall  Charly Boy has stated that Adeyanju only wanted a share of the 9-figures he received, which is why he decided to leak the audio of a conversation between the both of them.

In the audio, the veteran entertainer could be heard admitting to receiving money from the same government their ‘Our Mumu Don Do’ movement was challenging.

Adeyanju had alleged that while he was locked up for 78 days, Charly Boy was receiving bribes from the government hence his (Adeyanju’s) decision to resign from the movement.
