Nigerian musician and activist Charly Boy has voiced his opinion on the significance of the ongoing U.S. elections, referring to it as a “global judgment day.” In a video posted on his Instagram on November 5, 2024, he elaborated on why the U.S. elections are critical not only to Americans but to people around the world. He stressed that the outcomes of the elections will have a far-reaching impact, affecting global politics, economies, and even individual lives. Charly Boy’s statement underscores the growing awareness of the U.S. election’s international influence, as global citizens keep a keen eye on the proceedings.
Addressing his followers, he wrote, “Good day everybody, E don happen. In the next few hours or thereabout, it’d be judgement day for America. The choice facing America is monumental globally and all eyes are focused on America, the most important election of all time.”
He added, “I feel that leadership globally has fallen to an all-time low so the rest of the world looks up to America to see if their style of democracy is still sustainable.”
Charly Boy, known for being vocal, shared his frustration with fans who criticized his posts about American politics, especially his doubts about Donald Trump’s influence.
He said, “From my recent posts on my various platforms, it is evident that I am a dog in this fight; however, in my comment section, it is filled with people who are angered by my personal opinion and I ask, ‘why?’”
The singer emphasized that his strong connection to the country comes from his wife and children living there, as they would be impacted by the election results.
“People accuse me of being blatantly ignorant of American politics. Oh yeah? I just dey laugh. They feel that Donald trump is the one to save the world and I just can’t wrap my head around it. Which one is my own? Aside from the fact that my wife and children are all American citizens living over there, I’m the only person in my family who refused to have a second citizenship.”
“America has become a country where dreams come true and where people from all walks of life have planted the flags of hope for a better life,” he concluded.
