NIGERIAN comedian, Alibaba has expressed his frustration with the country's political system, citing its flaws and corruption.
In a recent interview on the With Chude podcast, Alibaba stated, "Our constitution is crap... If you bring Obama to run Nigeria with that constitution, he will fail." He emphasised that the system needs major changes.
Alibaba highlighted the issue of corruption, saying, "The system is so bad and the constitution needs to be rigid. The system is screwed."
He also shared a personal perspective, stating, "As I am now if you give me an appointment and you share 300 million when I come out, I will say they gave me 300 million and I'm whacking this one first."
Alibaba emphasised the dangers of challenging the system, recalling the story of a House of Assembly member who spoke out against budget padding. "They removed him; the guy didn't see the light of day," he said.
He also mentioned recent protests in the national assembly, where individuals demanded the right to choose their leaders. Alibaba noted that those who challenge the system often face consequences.
"I won't last one year, even if you make me the DG of an organisation or agency, I don't think I will last," Alibaba said, highlighting the risks of taking on the system.
