Meanwhile, Nigerian music star and rights activists, Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy has said that corruption and impunity in governance have robbed Nigeria’s grandchildren of a future.

Charley Boy said this when he led youths to a protest, tagged “ourmumudondo” in Owerri, the Imo State capital, against what he described as bad governance in Nigeria.

He said: “People need to ask questions though we are our own worst enemies. We have been quiet for too long. We want to aggressively sensitise the people that nothing can change overnight except we make a move.

“Corruption has stolen our grandchildren’s future; there is impunity in the land; and there is criminality in government whereas public office holders ought to serve us and not the other way round.”
