Many had criticised the military and the IBB government over the annulment.
But reflecting on this year’s Democracy Day, I Go Dye said “nothing has really changed since 1993 which has given room to this democracy celebration”.
In an Instagram post on Monday, the comedian said politicians in the country “should bury their heads in shame” for the current state of the nation.

“Democracy in Nigeria is not a system of government by the population of the state. It’s government of political parties by the interest of party members and the cabals, whose main intention is to subvert our resources.
