Popular Nigerian actor, Alexx Ekubo, has raised concerns about the potential consequences of the trending 2024 slogan, ‘No gree for anybody,’ warning that it could inadvertently lead to violence in the country.
The catchphrase, ‘No gree for anybody’ has gained widespread popularity in Nigeria and Ghana’s online space since the beginning of 2024.
However, Ekubo, in a post shared on his Instagram on Monday, cautioned against the slogan, expressing fears that it might contribute to a culture of violence and revenge.
Taking a moment to reflect, Ekubo shared his insights, stating, “I took time out to introspect. As I crawl out of my solemn place, I can see the same negativity and gbas gbos that have stunted our progress.”
Ekubo expressed concern about the impact of ‘No gree for anybody,’ urging Nigerians to embrace tolerance and consideration.
He emphasised the importance of kindness, reminding everyone that individuals are facing battles not always visible to others.
“What is ‘No gree for anybody’ that I’m seeing everywhere? It is breeding violence and fostering revenge culture,” Ekubo noted, calling for a shift towards a more compassionate and understanding approach.
“Can we instead be more tolerable and considerate towards others? Be kind; everyone you meet is fighting a battle you know nothing about. We are raised under different circumstances, with different degrees of luck,” he added.
As the slogan continues to circulate widely, Ekubo’s message serves as a timely reminder to prioritise empathy and understanding, and to foster a culture of kindness over potential conflict in the diverse Nigerian society
