Nigerian writer and social commentator Solomon Buch has criticized South African singer Tyla, claiming she did not speak out during the xenophobic attacks on Nigerians in South Africa but is now willing to perform in Nigeria.
Buch shared his opinion on social media, saying he believes celebrities should use their influence to condemn violence and discrimination, especially when innocent people are affected.
His remarks have generated mixed reactions online. While some people agreed with his criticism, others defended Tyla, arguing that entertainers should not be expected to comment on every political or social issue.
The discussion has sparked fresh debate about whether public figures have a responsibility to speak out during times of crisis.
