Veteran Nollywood actor and filmmaker Richard Mofe-Damijo, popularly known as RMD, has called on Nigerians to take a more active role in addressing the challenges facing the country instead of limiting themselves to criticism.
RMD made the call while speaking at the 2026 Pivot Nigeria Conference in Lagos, where he acknowledged the various issues confronting the nation.
According to the respected actor, identifying problems is only the first step, as citizens should also be willing to contribute ideas and actions toward finding lasting solutions.
He urged Nigerians to move beyond pointing out what is wrong and focus on what can be done to improve the situation.
“There are problems, but we need to fix them. Don’t stand and just criticise and propose no solution,” he said.
In other news… Media personality Dr Fab has given a fresh update on the controversial case surrounding music producer Samklef, saying he is stepping aside after discovering that the matter is more complicated than he initially expected.
Dr Fab, who had previously raised concerns over Samklef’s prolonged absence from social media, claimed on September 25 that he had directly confirmed the producer was arrested sometime earlier and was being detained.
He subsequently launched the #FreeSamklef campaign and called for his release, while saying he was trying to find out who was behind the alleged detention. However, the circumstances of Samklef’s reported arrest have not been independently confirmed by the police, a court or his representatives.
In a fresh post on Thursday, Dr Fab said the situation had turned out to be more difficult than he expected.
He wrote: “Sorry I’ve not updated on this Samklef issue. The matter just get as e be, mehn I thought it will be easy.. but damn! Make I just shift aside before dem add me join. I will be praying for him. #FreeSamklef”
His latest comment has now triggered fresh reactions online, with some users mocking him for backing away from the issue, while others questioned why he became involved in the first place.
Samklef has remained largely inactive on social media since April 2026, which has been cited by Dr Fab and others as part of the reason for concern over his whereabouts.
