“Nigeria is too too toxic man. Sickening.”

While some fans sympathised with his sentiment, many others criticised him for turning on Nigeria so soon after relocating.
One X user fired back:
“You never even reach 6 months for that side, u don dey enter us.”
Shank, unfazed by the backlash, doubled down on his opinion with a simple but firm response:
“No jor. I’m serious.”
Though Shank didn’t go into detail about what triggered the outburst.

This rangs from insecurity, inflation, and poor governance to limited opportunities.
