If burna boy is made who made him? His burning passion and resilience over decades of efforts with the help of few families and your empty thinking brain feels he should not be encouraged.

The boys who were given 10m you started grown-up hatred for them, but I didn't see where they block your luck or stop the govt from doing your bidding.

So many billions of naira the politicians steals from the cover of the govt so little to compare 200m for an encouragement.

Stop being a pessimist okay!!

Wow!!!
While I understand those tweets about the need to Pay Rivers civil servants or to Chanel such Funds to Education,, I still support Governor Woke!!..
He is giving millions to Youth of his state..That's a form of encouragement or even empowerment..
Some of the local artistes could use d millions given into ventures such as Barbing Salons, Bars, Restaurants, etc which will employ others..
So not bad for me..
See how those Buhari or APC supporters who commented in the First pages are Howling.. angry
If one of the local artistes collecting the N10million is dier brother, would dey be shouting like that??
Still remember how Darling Daddy Buhari once gave up to 55 NYSC members who visited in Daura, N200,000 to share.. sad
And Yusuf drives a N20million Bike.. undecided

Even other first time winners just like him has moved on, and focused on their life.. Shame dey catch me for us abegg

Nice perception, now look at from the angle of being the first contemporary artist to win it in the present biggest entertainment industry in Africa, through a genre that is being practiced and promote of African descent.

I agree with you, he is careless in the way he spends the people's money. My grouse is with people who can't hold their respective state governors to account or even Buhari.
Well, you’re right. If everyone of us can hold our Governors responsible, a lot will definitely change.

My grouse with Wike is his penchant to see himself as an Emperor. The 10,000 civil service jobs Wike promised since years ago is yet to be approved. Aside from the oil companies who assist with jobs, P/H is replete with thousands of jobless graduates with empty pockets. The same goes with the uncompleted projects he's yet to finalize, with just two years to wrap up his 2nd tenure.

Yet, rather than focus on these key issues, dude keep flexing these monies to foster his political growth. I’m simply tired of this dude and can't wait to see him out of Brick house.

Our leaders lack vision, how many best graduating students Wike ever given one million naira talkless of ten millions naira? Our leaders need to be hanging by the masses.

Now it concerns a SS governor, people from a particular region are reacting, when leaders from their region are talked about here they will immediately show signs of madness.




Wike please stop sharing the resources of Rivers State irrationally.

later, Niger deltans will say that they don't know what is been done with their oil money. Since burna is a youth who made the state proud, instead of dashing this said amount of money, they should channel it on youth empowerment in alleviating unemployment in the state.

Not from Rivers State but will say your comment about the state is so offensive and distasteful, to say d least..
Sir Peter Odili or Ada George or even Rotimi Amaechi were never thugs!! Hope you re not from Lagos or the South west states, because we'hav got ''Thugs' and 'Drug Barons' as leaders there, too..

Very useless move by the governor and yet the sorosoke youth are busy praising him and clapping.



When ENDSARS protest died, I knew the politicians will be emboldened and this move by Wike is proof

For Wike to be giving out 500 million un-budgetted money to Sokoto, That man Wike has at least $300 million stolen already which is N142.5 Billion
Before you accuse me - just consider Ibori's loot in the UK alone is $117 Million (100 Million GBP) hmmmm

Wike is busy throwing money to everyone including monetary and material gifts to members of the Rivers State Judiciary so they can let him off the hook come May 30, 2023 - WIKE MUST BE ARRESTED and PROSECUTED when he leaves office. If for nothing but he must account for all this money he is busy throwing around when a vast majority of Rivers State indigenes are wallowing in abject poverty!!!!
