Simi Takes A Swipe At African Leaders

Nigerian singer and songwriter Simi has taken to Twitter to express her frustration with the leadership in Africa.

In a series of tweets, Simi lamented the difficulties black Africans face in their quest for respect and survival in foreign lands.

She expressed her disappointment that African leaders have not done enough to fight for the dignity of their citizens.

“Black Africans have to fight and fight for space and respect and survival everywhere they go because the one place that is their birthright is hard on their lives.

“One would think this would make African leaders wake tf up and help us fight for our dignity,” she tweeted.

The singer also went on to say that circumstances force people to leave their home country and loved ones to live in a foreign land.

“Who really wants to go to a land of strangers, away from everyone and thing they love?

“People that want to survive. Nobody chooses that life because it's good or easy. They just don't want to die feeling that helpless.”

Simi criticizedAfrican leaders, accusing them of caring only about their own families and greedy bellies.

“But these leaders don’t love their country. They don’t love their people. They only love their greedy bellies.

“They only care about their own children. They only care about their families.

“As long as their wickedness is not happening to them, why stop?”
