BBNaija star Tacha has expressed strong views about her generation of Nigerians, describing them as the “dumb*st and most cowardly.”
The outspoken reality TV personality shared her thoughts on X, where she often comments on national issues.
She argued that unlike the youth of previous generations who stood up and fought for the country, today’s young Nigerians are mostly focused on leaving the country—commonly referred to as “japa”—and lining up at embassies for visas, rather than taking bold steps to create change.

“Listen, my generation of Nigerians is the dumb*st and most cowardly.. funny how we blame the ones before us for ruining Nigeria, but at least they had the guts to fight, ex president Buhari in his 20s was part of a coup fighting for what he believed in .. buh what’s Today’s 20-year-olds up to? japa. Believe me when I say, we’ve not just failed the next generation.. we’ve buried it.
Young Nigerians back then were bold enough to insert themselves in national power. Today? We insert ourselves into visa queues.. banger tweets & vibes. Yall ask “what have you done?”
I’ve used my voice. I speak, I show up, I don’t stay silent. This tweet was never about me. It’s about a whole generation that’s too scared to sacrifice comfort for country.”
