It is no secret that a number of fans on social media are known to call on celebrities to lend their voice and speak against the state of things in the country
Respected Nollywood actress Kate Henshaw has taken to social media to attack Nigerians who push celebrities to assume the role of activists by speaking out against government policies that are not favourable to the masses.
Kate Henshaw wants Nigerians to know that it is not the responsibility of celebrities to fight for their interest in the country.
The movie star sounded the warning in a series of tweets via her Twitter page on Friday, September 4, 2020, where she maintained that celebrities are not politicians and it is not their job.
According to her, popular figures within the entertainment industry are no longer prepared to be embroiled in political confrontations with the government on behalf of the people while they themselves do nothing.
One of the tweets read: “It’s been a while but you see silence sometimes gives cretins the temerity to think that because the walls are down, goat fit climb house. Who are you pointing at to go fight for you? Celebrities koor, celebrities ni. What HAVE YOU DONE?? Have you been tear gassed before?”
It's been a while but you see silence sometimes gives cretins the temerity to think that because the walls are down, goat fit climb house.

Celebrities koor, celebrities ni.
What HAVE YOU DONE??
