Yaw: Nigerian government does nothing for citizens
Yaw, a well-known stand-up comedian and OAP, has claimed that the government does nothing for its people.

The actor insisted in an interview with HipTV that the government's "I don't care" attitude toward the people leaves the masses to fend for their own basic needs.

Additionally, he claimed that while gradually participating in the growth of the film industry, government had nothing to do with Nigeria's music industry.

Yaw said: “Government did nothing for music. And then, music has gotten to where it has gotten to.

“And I think individual producers and directors, content creators have done a lot. That’s why Netflix, HBO, Amazon Prime and the others are just coming in here now and then they are looking into our content.

“Because there’s nowhere you go to, you see Nigerians. We dominate in Africa.

“Forget …I don’t want to use the ‘f’ word here but it’s no longer news that government, ‘dem no send us now’, they don’t!

“So everyone….I’m sure you provide your light yourself. You have your own generator…Ehn, you provide light by yourself.

“You provide your own security, either one aboki or something watching your gate.”

“So my dear, I think we are all doing everything by ourselves.

“And I think the movie industry is not left out. Even though yes, they are coming in gradually, wanting to take part. They are renovating the National Theatre..they are trying to do one or two things but is it enough?

“They can do better….they can do more,” he said.
