Nigerian artiste, Buju Benson has voiced his concerns regarding the prevalence of adulterated and fake alcoholic beverages being sold in clubs, shedding light on the potential health hazards and financial losses faced by patrons.
The singer expressed his frustration with the situation, emphasising the substantial amounts spent on what he referred to as “overpriced drinks.”
In a plea to establishments, Buju lamented the adverse effects of consuming fake drinks, stating, “Stop selling us fake drinks after spending so much money on the overpriced drinks. You are killing us.”
The artiste called for a higher standard of accountability, urging club owners to prioritise the well-being and financial investment of their customers.
He advocated for consumer rights, stressing the need for both health and financial considerations.
He declared, “Respect my health, respect my money. Give me what I pay for. If you don’t have it, don’t bring a fake one!”
Promising action, Buju issued a stern warning to future venues that might perpetuate this practice. He declared, “The next club or lounge that does this to me, I promise I will take that microphone from the hypeman and let you know!”
As Buju’s message gains traction on social media, it has sparked conversations about the need for regulatory measures to ensure the authenticity of alcoholic beverages in entertainment venues.
The incident highlights the broader challenges faced by consumers and the entertainment industry in maintaining transparency and quality assurance.
