Popular Nigerian socialite and crossdresser, Bobrisky, has called out Nigerian politicians for their silence following the tragic killing of nearly 200 people in Yelwata, Benue State.

The attack, reportedly carried out by suspected herdsmen, left over 200 people dead, sparking outrage and grief across the nation. However, Bobrisky expressed frustration at the lack of urgency from lawmakers in addressing the incident.

Taking to Instagram Stories, he highlighted the irony of how swiftly senators and House of Representatives members held meetings last year over allegations that he wasn’t jailed in a regular prison cell after being sentenced for spraying naira notes, yet have remained quiet in the wake of a national tragedy.

In his words:

“Senator/house representative didn’t call urgent meeting over the kiling happening in benue.. but they can call urgent meeting when it comes to bobrisky. Shame!!!! Shame!!!! Shame!!!”

He further added:
“What a shameful country.”
