Charly Boy Deletes Tweet Labeling Tinubu’s Government “Criminal” After Backlash
Charles Oputa, also known as Charly Boy, a Nigerian activist and singer, recently faced backlash for deleting a tweet that addressed the unrest in France, making comparisons with Nigeria. In the tweet, he urged Nigerian youths to reject the oppressive system and “criminal enterprise” under President Bola Tinubu.
Charly Boy faced criticism from some Nigerians after posting a tweet in which he referred to the Bola Tinubu administration as a “criminal enterprise”. Although he later deleted the tweet, he was compelled to re-edit and repost it after removing the controversial phrase. Despite his initial statement, some individuals accused Charly Boy of hypocrisy.
But his re-edited post later read,
“This isn’t Syria, Iraq or Afghanistan. This is France where 9% of the population has brought down entire cities! Karma from Africa? Am waiting on the exceptional Nigerian Youths to reject a system that let dem down. Una destiny dey una hand.”

A few months ago, Charly Boy responded to a news report that accused Seyi Tinubu, the president’s son, of purchasing a property worth $10.8 million in London, UK, allegedly associated with fraud.
According to a report, a company owned by Tinubu’s son purchased an $11 million mansion in London in 2017. Under former President Muhammadu Buhari, the Nigerian government attempted to seize the property as part of an investigation into a major corruption scandal. Charly Boy responded to the report on Twitter, stating that this scandal is only the start of the unparalleled corruption that Nigerians can expect under Tinubu’s leadership.
Charly Boy shared screenshots of the allegations against Seyi Tinubu with the words,
“We never see anything. If the INEC-select president succeeds enter May 29th, we go see Shege Banza.
