What Nigerian celebrities said after suffering disappointment at #NativeLand19 concert

Celebrities and other Nigerians are currently on social media expressing disappointment at the Native Land concert which took place last night at Muri Okunola Park, Victoria Island Lagos.

According to reports gathered by MyNigeria.com, the event was poorly organized and made use of a venue way too small for the crowd that turned up. The entrance into the venue had to be shut to prevent more people from going in because it was overcrowded.

Shutting the entrance to the venue did more than prevent people from going in as it also prevented those who were fed up with the crowded venue from going out.

Tweeting about the event, singer Joeboy expressed sadness at the fact that his performance suffered technical issues.

Fireboy didn't perform without facing his own challenge due to poor organizing. Report says the stage he was performing on collapsed.

Below are some tweets gathered.

Super pissed at the disorganization myself and the fans witnessed at #Nativeland

My performance was abruptly cut due to ‘technical’ issues. I had not even gotten into my set properly. Sincere apologies to the fans that came out to watch and were disappointed

Fuck you #NATIVELAND19. Finally got my sons home safely only to hear of kids in hospital due to your recklessness and greed. Gate fell on their school friends. Another friend was beaten by the police.

So Fireboy was performing Party Scatter and the Nativeland VIP stage fell. The party actually scattered. He spoke it like Burna spoke his Grammy into existence #NATIVELAND19

They locked the gate forgetting there are teenagers with actual curfews present since the organisers weren’t particular about age brackets.

This babe is freaking out and they won’t let them go.
Where are the organisers!? #NATIVELAND19
