In a country where many celebrities play it safe, a few Nigerian entertainers have dared to speak truth to power — calling out former President Muhammadu Buhari for what they perceived as failures in governance, human rights, and leadership.
Here are five bold voices who didn’t mince words even as the former President is been buried.
1. Wizkid
Afrobeats superstar Wizkid shocked many in 2020 when he tweeted: “Buhari/Trump are clueless!”
This came during the height of the #EndSARS protests, a movement against police brutality in Nigeria. His post sparked both applause and backlash, cementing his position as not just an entertainer, but a socially conscious figure.
2. Teni
Teni made headlines when she received a national honour (Member of the Order of the Niger, MON) without bowing or offering a handshake to President Buhari.
Her apparent snub was seen by many as a silent protest. Critics slammed her online, but many fans hailed her boldness.
3. DJ Switch
The #EndSARS protests made DJ Switch a global voice for Nigerian youth. After live-streaming the Lekki Toll Gate shootings on Instagram, she directly accused the Nigerian government and military of murder and cover-up.
She repeatedly called out Buhari’s administration for its silence and complicity.
4. Burna Boy
The African Giant didn’t hold back either. On several occasions, Burna Boy criticized the Nigerian government, especially during the #EndSARS movement.
He tweeted: “Buhari has failed us,” and supported protest efforts both locally and internationally, even funding hospital bills for injured protesters.
5. Falz
Rapper and lawyer Folarin “Falz” Falana has always blended activism with artistry. From his viral “This is Nigeria” video to his direct involvement in the #EndSARS protests, Falz never hesitated to slam Buhari’s leadership.
He accused the administration of “failing the people” and called out systemic injustice.
In a nation where silence is often rewarded, these entertainers turned their platforms into protest tools — giving the youth a voice, and the establishment a wake-up call.
Whether through music, tweets, or symbolic gestures, they reminded Nigerians that stardom doesn’t have to mean silence.
