- Nigerian actress Regina Daniels has once again lent her voice to the End Bad Governance protest in the country
- On Day 2 of the protest, the movie star took to her page to share a new video where she condemned acts of violence from the police, among other things
- Nigerians reacted to Regina’s video in various ways, with some of them dragging her for speaking from a place of privilege
Nollywood actress Regina Daniels is once again making headlines amid the End Bad Governance protest in Nigeria.
The movie star first drew fans' attention after she shared a video on the first day of the protest urging Nigerians not to get violent. She was mercilessly dragged for it.
In a new development, the senator’s wife took to her Instagram page to share another video where she appeared to scold the people in government for not adequately letting resources reach the poor masses. However, she noted that Nigeria was for everybody, and they all needed to put in the work.
In the final part of her video, Regina Daniels pleaded with the policemen not to attack protesters. In her words:
“It is day 2 of the national protest in Nigeria, everyone is frustrated nationwide with justified reasons and something needs to be done to ease the hearts of the people to avoid further loss of lives and properties. Nigeria is not a one-man land hence it’s not one-man's problem. Nigeria can only be fixed by only the collective efforts of everyone in the government ranging from the president, governors, senators, house of reps members, house of assembly members down to local government chairmen and councillors. What happens when the federal government understands the plights of the people and the state or local government does not? Or vice-versa? The job still remains undone, leaving thousands hungry, suffering and jobless. The hike in prices of food, water, electricity, transportation, security and communication is alarming, there is hunger in the land, Nigeria cannot be fixed by having half bad eggs and half good eggs, all the lawmakers need to be in sync with the people’s plights to fix Nigeria, only then can what is rightfully allocated to the grassroots get to them. This should be a government for the people, not against them. Our armed forces, please refrain from using excessive force on the people as everyone has the right to air their voices and demand for transparency, accountability and participation to avoid further loss of lives and properties by our own people.”
