EVERYONE IS A CRIMINAL! Comedian Alibaba reacts to Falz’s “This is Nigeria” video
Veteran comedian, Alibaba, has said Falz’s “This is Nigeria” video is a reflection of how deteriorated our societal thought process has degenerated.
The ace comedian said no truer word has ever been said, pointing out that anyone who has made it is a thief.
He said people no longer believe anyone made it from hard work, noting that even the police don’t treat anyone as innocent.
Alibaba also stated that everyone suspects everyone because, in the eyes of the people who our “Yahoo boys” have swindled, we are all rogues.
Nigerian rapper, Falz released a Nigerian cover version of Childish Gambino’s ‘This is America,’ using it as means to address societal ills.
The video has been trending since its release.

People no longer believe anyone made it from hard work. As for the police, they don’t treat anyone as innocent. Everyone suspects everyone. In the eyes of the people who our Yahoo boys have swindled… we are all rogues. What of the foreign investor that wants to bring business here, but has to bribe to do that business? Ask the taxi driver who refuses to give a Gwagon driver way… he will tell you the owner stole to buy it. What of food meant for IDP camps? Stolen. Votes nko? Stolen. To sign budget… you must settle. To get promoted in civil service, you must settle. Even to pass exam you must use spreadsheet. To get a contract nko? People are arrested off the streets and thrown into jail like they are criminals. SARS leave scars. No one stands up for the innocent. Does that not mean we are all criminals? People who do legit businesses don’t succeed because the criminals will truncate all pure business moves. And life continues… Do you really think there are people who don’t see Nigerians as criminals??? Check this out. Are all herdsmen bad? No. But in the spate of the last herdsmen attacks… what will your comments be about herdsman? Are all politician thieves? Are all policemen corrupt? Are all the girls you see at night on the street runs girls?… we need to change. That video is a reawakening
