The People vs Eldee The Don: A Nigerian Twitter Story

Eldee the Don took to Twitter today to slam the ever-growing fame of sex and sex-based celebrities.

He took particular aim at Amber Rose, who recently got paid $8 million to go on the road and talk about… Yeah you guessed it, sex.

#AmberRoseSlutWalk?? What are we doing to our children on this planet? Making hoes role models for young black girls is now hip???

Young black girls now being further encouraged to aspire to be sluts/hoes/sex workers. $8m to be a hoe evangelist? Wake up people!!!

TV shows survive on ratings. Stop supporting the platforms that are put in place to destroy your children’s futures by watching these shows.

There’s NOTHING positive about using a professional hoe to teach children anything but how not to be a hoe. Slutwalk?? Who r they fooling??

I have young daughters & the constant promotion of these hoes as black role models is a direct propagandist threat to their future.

— Lanre eLDee Dabiri (@eLDeeTheDon) October 2, 2016

Is there nothing positive going on with black women?? Where are the Silicon Valley success stories? Doctors? Real estate moguls? WhyHoes???

— Lanre eLDee Dabiri (@eLDeeTheDon) October 2, 2016

Something is wrong with a world where Amber Rose gets paid millions to promote anything positive ahead of Simone, Serena, Lupita, Alicia…

— Lanre eLDee Dabiri (@eLDeeTheDon) October 2, 2016

Yes I’m upset. I’m upset as hell because I have daughters. I’m upset because there is a deliberate effort by media to poison their minds.

— Lanre eLDee Dabiri (@eLDeeTheDon) October 2, 2016

I have no personal problems with Amber Rose & Im not judging her lifestyle choices, just stop making them “OK” options for little girls.

— Lanre eLDee Dabiri (@eLDeeTheDon) October 2, 2016

Not a single show on TV teaching young girls to do better. They all start with the Barbies & graduate to Kardashianism. #WeMustDoBetter

Of course, this kind of outburst was bound to incite discussion, and the people have come out for and against the veteran Nigerian rapper.

Honestly, in 2016, you guys underrating the impact of the media on kids are delusional. Completely delusional!

Not saying you should blame the media for everything but if u think u can assume full responsibility for their upbringing you’re dreaming.

— Donald Ekanem (@Don_Kane) October 2, 2016

Maybe @eLDeeTheDon shouldn’t have called out names but everything he said is true

If you’re going to place responsibility on anyone for your kids, maybe place it on people in religious circles. Because this one kolewerk

Black successful women or black hoes are not living for your children. They never asked to be role models. They’re living their life.

Media: *entertains with booty shaking* feminists: ‘women are not sex objects!’, Media: ‘let’s stop hoe culture’ feminists: ‘slut shaming!’

— Kenechukwu Oraelosi (@oraelosikenny01) October 2, 2016

You fellas don’t attack the hundreds of men in media that have nothing but twerking women in their music videos for being bad role models.

— Urek Mazino (@FantaBender) October 2, 2016

This issue Eldee raised is very important, VERY. If you can’t think for yourself, think for the next generation

— OLUWANIFEMI (@oluRehmy) October 2, 2016

The truth is, you can’t totally protect your kids from the influence of media. It’s better you teach your kids to sift through for substance
