In a recent statement via his official X account, Nigerian songwriter Charly Boy has reacted to the incident involving Iranian President Ebrahim Raisi, who died while visiting neighboring Azerbaijan with his foreign minister.
In his statement, Charly Boy questioned the circumstances surrounding the death of the Iranian president, asking if it was a result of bad weather or divine intervention. He also noted that some Iranians appear to be pleased with the news of their president’s death. He said on his X handle:
“The Iranian President has been confirmed deàd in a fatal helicopter crash. Was it bad weather or divine intervention? Some Iranians seem to be happy about this news. People are wondering if the next regime would be better or worse. I think they should have spent more money to update their helicopters than building rockets for Hamas. I can’t help but think, what’s next? How would this affect the region? Would he still get his quota of 72 vírgins? Just asking.”
Charly Boy’s remarks have sparked a mix of reactions, with some supporting his candid commentary and others criticizing his insensitivity….S££ MOR£
