Popular Nigerian artist, Waje recently revealed that she was seriously considering quitting music, as it is not working for her anymore, and Nigerians have since been all over her case on Twitter.
In the now-trending video uploaded on her YouTube page titled ‘Music is not for me’, the artiste, whose real name is Aijuaje Iruobe, expressed her frustrations concerning returns on investments in her last album, which she thinks is one of the best that has come out of Nigeria.
The viral video sparked a flurry of reactions from fans and critics on the Nigerian Twitter space. While a segment of users visited the social media platform to offer words of advice, sympathy, encouragement, others registered derision to the singer’s plight.
”This is a cry for help; Waje, a single mother is putting a daughter through university all by herself. She is talented,” said one Twitter user.
“Waje is broken maybe even depressed.
“Let’s not allow it to be too late (God forbid) Twitter has made it happen for less deserving people.”
