Nollywood actress, Genevieve Nnaji is currently under fire for praying for the victims of terror attack on the city of Nice, France.
Following yesterday’s attack on
citizens in Nice which left at least 84 killed during Bastille Day
celebrations, Genevieve shared a photo of France’s national flag
with the hashtag, PrayForNice.
‘Father into thy hands I commend
their spirit. #prayforparis #prayforjustice,’ she wrote along with
the photo.
Her concern did not go down well with many of
her followers, who asked that the gesture be replicated for victims
of terror attacks in her country, Nigeria.
‘Comi
ng from a lady I respect so
much, I’m startled. Until we begin to love this country, it won’t
get better. Yes you have right to post whatever, but where lies your
loyalty,’
a concerned fan wrote.
Another wrote, ‘I’ve always liked
you Genevieve but you are an icon here in Nigeria, you don’t post
shit about what’s going on in our country, the struggles Nigerians
are facing, you haven’t addressed shit. Nobody said you shouldn’t
post about Paris but what about your own country. #disappointed.
