“Rig and Die”: Charly Boy Urges Nigerians to Defend Votes in 2027, Slams Tinubu’s Govt as Worse Than Buhari’s

Maverick musician and activist, Charles Oputa, popularly known as Charly Boy, has called on Nigerians to adopt a “rig and die” mentality in the 2027 general elections, emphasizing the need to protect their votes at all costs.

In a fiery interview with Jay On-Air, Charly Boy did not mince words as he accused President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s administration of being far more corrupt than that of his predecessor, the late President Muhammadu Buhari.

“The corruption in the current administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is ten times worse than the last administration of the late former President Muhammadu Buhari,” he said.

Expressing deep concern about the state of the nation, Charly Boy stressed that desperate measures may be required to reclaim Nigeria from what he described as corrupt leadership.

“All I’m interested in right now is, will our votes count in 2027? How do we do it? How do we get these monsters away from leadership positions? It’s not about Mr A can steal more than Mr B. The people stealing our national wealth are from all the tribes. We know the game,” he stated.

The entertainer, known for his controversial yet passionate activism, warned that the fight to reclaim the country might come at a cost.

“But I’m hoping to see ‘rig and die’ come 2027. Blood will flow; before it gets better, it will get worse,” he warned.

Charly Boy’s remarks come amid rising political tension and increasing public dissatisfaction with the state of governance and the economy under the current administration.
