Use the N10m APC paid you – Nigerians tackle Timaya as he laments over petrol scarcity

Nigerian dancehall star, Timaya has come under heavy fire after her complained on social media about lack of fuel.

The Dem Mama crooner took to his Twitter page on Tuesday, May 30 and lamented about not having fuel in his car.

This comes days after he performed at the pre-inauguration concert for President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.

”No fuel for my moto 😤”, Timaya tweeted.

Fans attacked the singer for the lamentation and made reference to the purported N10 million that musicians were paid for the show.

Recall that Habeeb Okikiola aka Portable, revealed he declined an invitation to perform at President Bola Tinubu’s pre-inauguration concert.

Portable said he was among those invited but he turned it down because the organisers wanted to rip him off.

He claimed that they informed him that the budget for artistes was N10million per head, but the Inauguration management team said he will only get N5million.

The Zazuu star said it infuriated him, so he rejected the offer, tore the invitation card, and blocked the number of the person that contacted his management.

Some of the artistes that performed include; Naira Marley, Waje, Brymo, Asake, Fireboy, Kaycee, Asake, Timaya, BNXN, Pasuma, Tony Tetuila, and Seyi Vibes.

Speaking on the incident, he condemned the musicians who accepted to show up and thrill guests at the event which held at the MKO Abiola National Stadium, Abuja.

Portable asked if any of the music stars that accepted the money love Tinubu. He further queried them to know if they supported or promoted the president-elect at any time before, during or after election.

He said; “Na so dem call my manager say make I come perform for Abuja, say na N10 million dey drop oh, but na N5 million go reach portable hand. Na so I no gree, I tear the paper, I delete their number. No be me be star? Na im make me no perform for Abuja oh!”
