I can recollect all that happened during the bbnaija reality show, how people referred to it as a distraction to the 2023 general elections. And I wondered why those sets of people have not come out to condemn the attention given to this current world cup and more so, for the fact that Nigeria is not even participating in the world cup.
Looking at it holistically if we were to compare and contrast this current world cup and bbnaiaja which one is more economically valuable to Nigerians?

That's just to highlight the double standard that pple have. Unreasonable lots

Because global is bigger than national and national is bigger than private business.

Here are some reasonable reasons why the world cup isn't a distraction.
(1) It's a global sport event
(2) it doesn't promote immorality, gossip and hatred
(3) it's a way to relax and unwind it's not a show that runs for 24hrs . We don't watch players while they sleep and snore
(4) Everyone can watch it it's not rated 18+. And it gives a sense of belonging if your country or continent is ably represented
(5) sport is fun

Exactly my thoughts

We should add value to our own either private or national.

You are right with your points but I still believe the people that called bbaniaja a distraction were just being hypocritical
