Charly Boy Slams Musawa Over Hospital Visit To Zack Orji

Nigerian singer, Charly Boy has slammed Hannatu Musawa, the minister of art, culture and creative economy, over her visit to Zack Orji, the ailing actor, at the hospital.

Zack Orji had slumped on December 29 and was admitted at the intensive care unit of the national hospital in Abuja.

On Tuesday, Musawa, along with Remi Tinubu, the first lady, and Nana Shettima, the wife of the vice president, visited the ailing actor at the hospital.

The minister in a statement prayed for Orji’s recovery and called for support for the movie star.

Reacting to the visit on X, Charly Boy expressed disapproval, arguing that Nigeria has more pressing issues.

He questioned the relevance of the visit to addressing national issues like the rising cost of living and the recent air force bombing in Plateau state.

Charly Boy further proposed that, given Orji’s perceived support for the government, they could extend genuine assistance by facilitating his treatment abroad, rather than depending on the national hospital, which he described as a “mortuary”.

“Chronic attention seekers make we hear word. Nigeria currently has bigger terminal problem wey pass Zack Orji,” he wrote.

“Everyone including the factory fitted mumu’s for dis country know he is the least of our problems.

“How does dat visit bring down the price of petrol or the devilish rising cost of living.

“Shey, no be civilians for Plateau state who were ‘mistakenly’ bombed by the Air force. Over 300 casualties, dey do not deserve visitation or a day of national mourning abi?

“If una wan help Zack, carryam go abroad since na una strong supporter. National hospital is a mortuary.”
