Nigerian socialite and reality TV star, Chioma Ikokwu, popularly known as Chioma Good Hair, has called out Nigerian performers over the quality of their stage performances. Taking to Snapchat, the RHOL star expressed her desire for artists to emulate the effort Tanzanian singer Juma Jux puts into his craft.
In her post, Chioma lamented the lack of preparation and effort by some Nigerian artists:
“I wish Nigerian performers would start putting more effort into their performances like Juma did. I find a lot of their performances lazy and lacklustre. It lacks rehearsal & substance. And it’s unfair considering the love their fans show.”
While she acknowledged that some Nigerian performers deliver excellent performances, she maintained that a significant number lack the quality to be on stage.
Chioma’s remarks sparked a mix of reactions online. Some agreed with her, citing the recent Headies Awards as evidence, while others criticized her for being unnecessarily controversial.
Here are a few reactions:
-
Accessories_coner: “If you watched the Headies yesterday, you will relate to what she’s talking about.”
-
Hanty_dammy: “Don’t set him up for drags, Chioma. Rest, Alasheju.”
-
Korexkateebz: “Second wife has spoken.”
-
Ffatty_fatty: “Chioma, you talk too much. Stop bringing drama to her life.”
Juma Jux, who attended the awards with his wife, Priscilla, took home the Best East African Artiste of the Year award. In his acceptance speech, Juma expressed gratitude to God, his wife, and his fans for their unwavering support.
The Tanzanian artist has faced speculation about his relationship with Priscilla, with some critics claiming his marriage was strategic for gaining recognition in Nigeria. Defending her husband, Priscilla sarcastically addressed the allegations, praising Juma as a smart and hardworking individual.
Chioma has been vocal about her admiration for the couple. Reflecting on their love story, she once described their relationship as a beautiful example of love at first sight. She shared how Juma was captivated by Priscilla upon their first meeting and praised their chemistry.
