A man has sparked buzz online after sharing a video showcasing his malnourished dogs while shedding light on the dire state of the economy in Nigeria.
In the video, the man displayed his two dogs, visibly emaciated with protruding bones.
He passionately called upon President Bola Tinubu to address the present economic crisis, emphasizing that both animals and citizens are suffering.
He lamented on the high prices of goods in the market, stating that people are struggling to afford basic necessities, let alone feed their beloved pets.
He expressed remorse that his dogs, which were once well-fed, now have nothing to eat.
The video quickly gained traction on social media, drawing mixed reactions from netizens.
Many condemned the man for what they perceived as animal abuse and cruelty, questioning why he could nourish himself while neglecting his pets.
They argued that blaming the economy was unjustifiable.
while others empathized with the man, acknowledging the impact of the economy affecting various households.
However, even those sympathetic to the economic hardships agreed that he should have taken responsible action, such as finding a suitable home for the dogs before they reached such a malnourished state.
As the video continues to circulate, it has sparked discussions about the importance of responsible pet ownership and the need for urgent measures to help lessen the financial burdens weighing heavily on Nigerian citizens.
