YOU ARE A HYPOCRITE, YOUR CHILDREN ARE STUDYING ABROAD,  YOUNG6IX LAMBASTS LAI MOHAMMED.

  Onome Onokohwomo A.K.A Young6ix has lambasted the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed for his purported call on the creative industry, that is, the music and the home video(Nollywood) to stop the production of music videos abroad.

The Warri born artist faulted the call by the information minister, describing it as double standard. According to the message shared on his Instagram page, Young6ix  described Lai Mohammed as a hypocrite who has his children abroad studying in different universities but comes up with decisions that favor him.

His message reads thus,
 "Dear Sir Lai Mohammed, address us and let the world know where your family members are currently studying.
"Justify your wicked art.
" In a country that is supposed to be run by leaders, its heartbreaking to know that it's being run by looters.
"Lai Mohammed seeking relevance in the wrong way. You and your government have failed our people with your countless demising moves.
"Politicians should be stoned when making such a speech. I trust Nigeria is getting to that level. You are ruling people not statues"

You will recall that the Information and Culture Minister, Lai Mohammed had on July 15, 2017 through his twitter account @MohammedLai, warned members of the creative industry of the consequences that await then, if they shoot Music videos abroad. The message reads thus
                  "If you shoot your musical videos outside Nigeria  you will be prosecuted. Shoot all your videos in Nigeria we have good locations."

This call by the Information Minister has generated a lot of reactions from the members of the creative industry. Peter and Paul Okoye of P-square, as well as the elder brother and manager Jude Okoye were the first to react to the foregoing. They described the call as a double standard call, as politicians still go abroad for medical treatment.

Jude Okoye writes thus "let all of you stop running to abroad when you are sick as na naija money una dey use patronise oyibo hospital dem"
Peter Okoye says "Dear FG, for your information, all the shame wey una dey bring for this our country, na we dey entertainers dey cover una Nash! Ndi ala"

On his own part, an A-list comedian, Francis Agoda popularly known as I Go Die, has advocated for a dialogue between the stakeholders in the entertainment industry and the Federal Government, to avoid what he described as 'confrontation' that will do no party no good.
