Singer and skit maker Nasboi has criticised Nigerian bloggers for selective reporting on social media.

He argued that no celebrity in Nigeria addresses insecurity more frequently than he does on X, but bloggers consistently ignore those posts.

Instead, they amplify his unrelated tweets, which creates a public perception that he is insensitive to national issues.

Nasboi accused bloggers of distracting the public by prioritising trivial stories over serious ones.

He cited coverage of a popular TV show hosts’ marriage as an example of the kind of content bloggers push, while important issues receive far less attention.

He said on Instagram: “There is no celebrity in Nigeria that talks about insecurity in our country more than me. You can check it on Twitter. But whenever I speak about it and also tweet normal things, the only tweets Nigerian bloggers pick are the random ones, while they ignore the important tweets.

“When they post those random tweets, people now think I’m insensitive. Again, but what is our business with the issue between Frank Edoho’s marriage. What concerns us about it? Nigerian bloggers will amplify those kinds of stories instead. When it comes to distracting the people, most bloggers do it. How many times have they amplified serious issues?”
