Nollywood actor Alex Ekubo has raised alarm over the widespread use of the popular slogan “No gree for anybody,” expressing his concern that it might be fostering violence and a revenge culture. In a thoughtful Instagram post, Ekubo encouraged Nigerians to embrace tolerance and kindness towards each other.
Ekubo emphasized the importance of recognizing that everyone is facing battles unknown to others and urged people to be intentional about their health and wealth. He highlighted the impact of self-care on well-being and encouraged individuals to focus on their goals.
The actor, known for his positive messages, shared his New Year Pep Talk with followers, urging them to prioritize humanity over titles and to identify as human beings. He expressed a desire for a more compassionate world and called for understanding and acceptance of diverse experiences.
While Ekubo raises concerns, Yul Edochie, another Nollywood actor, has claimed credit for originating the “No gree for anybody” slogan. Edochie asserts that people informed him of being the slogan’s originator, and upon recalling a social media post where he used the phrase, he demands credit for popularizing it.
In the midst of these sentiments, both actors navigate the evolving landscape of popular slogans and their impact on Nigerian social discourse.
