Popular Nigerian singer, Slimcase has incurred the wrath of Nigerians after he made a post about George Floyd whose death occurred as a result of a police official brutality in the US.
Everything started when the singer posted a picture of Floyd and wrote;
“FAME AFTER DEATH… any positive blow wey I gats blow God Let me blow am now that I am alive not after
I am dead George A sacrifice for d change in black history #blacklivesmatters”
One of his followers took to the comment section and wrote;
“Na America matter una always dey carry for head, why you no post that 16 years old girl police shoot for Lagos.
Abi them never settle the girl matter finish?”
Slimcase went ahead and replied the follower, stating;
“We talking about a global pandemic here. Leave the Lagos girl for Channels to talk about am.”
Furthermore, Nigerians felt his reply was dumb and intensive and people took to social media to call him out.

Funny thing about Slimcase issue is that a lot of people on Instagram were stanning and praising him for his wisdom like Solomon.
Is it that God gave Instagram Nigeria the brain of fowls and TwitterNG the actual human brain?

I can't get over the fact that Slimcase literally said, "leave the Lagos girl for channels to talk about".
That Lagos girl was Tina who was gunned down by the police in Nigeria.
It's one thing to be more interested in the injustice in faraway US.
It's another thing to be daft.— Baldilocks (@Baldilocks__) May 31, 2020

I wonder how people expect intellectual exhanges from people like Zlatan, Naira Marley, Slimcase, Mercy Eke etc. You can't pour from an empty cup.
