In other news…. In other news…. Veteran entertainer Charly Boy recently stopped by the newly renamed Olamide Baddo Bus Stop, a location that previously bore his name.
Rather than take offense, the Area Fada approached the change with humor, noting that it’s “just a street” and not something worth stressing over. He joked that if the renaming trend continues, major landmarks like the airport or even the National Assembly might also get new titles.
Charly Boy said he found it amusing that some people were trying to “show Fada power” by altering the name, but he personally remains unconcerned. For him, life is too short to be upset about a bus stop especially one he never benefited from.
He shared on social media:
“My people, U can already guess where your Area Fada dey?
Olamide Baddo Bus Stop!
Yes o, na the same bus stop wey una sabi since… now na Baddo get am. Street na street, e no get age limit, abi?
I just dey inside car dey laugh yeye people wey wan show Fada power.
The Emperor of Nigeria go soon rename everywhere. Next thing, dem go name airport after one DJ, then call National Assembly ‘Comedy Central’. Yeye dey smell.
For me? I still go dey fresh, I still dey cruise, and I still no send anybody wey no like am. Life too short to dey vex for bus stop name change, when I never chop.
Dia Father’s.”
