Don’t Regurgitate Lies That Can’t Fly-I Go Die Slams Politicians Over Fake Humility Ahead of 2027 Elections  

Seun Emmanuel Popular Nigerian comedian, Francis Agoda, better known as I Go Die, has criticised Nigerian politicians for recycling manipulative tactics as the 2027 presidential election approaches. In a post he shared on Instagram, the comedian warned Nigerians to be cautious of politicians who fake humility in a bid to gain sympathy and votes from Nigerians. I Go Die expressed frustration about Nigerians’ repeated gullibility, highlighting how politicians often pretend to be humble during campaigns, only to disappear after winning elections. The comedian cited historical figures like Obafemi Awolowo, comparing their legacy with modern politicians who still rely on outdated and insincere campaign tactics. He said, “2027 dey near… Politicians don dey collect their white native from tailor hand. Very soon now, you go begin see dem for roadside dey buy corn, dey help roast bole with women, enter market like say na dem suffer pass you, chop for mama put like say na their house. Fake humility just to win your heart. “But once dem win, dem go disappear like spirit. You no go see dem again until next election. Same old script since 1960. No innovation, no sincerity. “Na the same format dem Awolowo use that year na una still dey use today. Zero creativity. Zero change. Na why Nigeria still dey where we dey. “We do not need actors, we need thinkers. We do not need visionary leaders, not recycled lies.”
