Veteran singer and social commentator, Charles Oputa, widely recognized by his stage name Charly Boy, has made a dramatic vow that has sent ripples through social media and political circles alike. In an unexpected declaration, the controversial entertainer swore to divorce his wife, Lady D, of 47 years if United States Vice President Kamala Harris does not win the forthcoming presidential election.
The shocking announcement came in the wake of a major political development in the United States. President Joe Biden, in a surprising move, officially stepped down as the Democratic Party candidate this past Sunday. He subsequently endorsed his Vice President, Kamala Harris, as the new flagbearer of the party. This endorsement places Harris a step closer to possibly becoming the first Black female President of the United States.
Charly Boy’s social media reaction and personal stake
Reacting fervently on his social media platform, X (formerly known as Twitter), Charly Boy expressed his strong support for Kamala Harris. He hailed her candidacy as a historic opportunity for America, following the nation’s experience with its first Black male President, Barack Obama. In his post, Charly Boy emphasized that it is high time the U.S. breaks another significant racial and gender barrier in its political leadership.
In an emotional and somewhat humorous manner, Charly Boy revealed his personal stake in Harris’s potential victory. He disclosed that he has had a long-standing admiration for Harris, whom he referred to as his “crush.” He went on to make an audacious promise that if Harris did not clinch the presidency, he would divorce his wife, an assertion that underscores his passionate stance on the matter.
Writing in Nigerian Pidgin English, Charly Boy’s exact words were: “If dis my crush, Kamala Harris no win the USA presidential election, I swear, I go divorce my wife of 47yrs. After the first Black Male President, America deserves the first Black Female President. Sorry rednecks. That’s how we Roll.”
Despite President Biden’s endorsement, Kamala Harris still faces significant hurdles before she can be officially nominated as the Democratic Party’s candidate for the presidential election. According to a recent report by The Hill, she has, as of now, secured over a quarter of the delegates required to win the Democratic Presidential nomination. This signifies that while Biden’s support gives her campaign a considerable boost, Harris’s journey to the nomination is far from over.
Public reactions to Charly Boy’s bold proclamation
Meanwhile, Charly Boy’s bold proclamation has sparked widespread reactions. While some of his fans and followers appreciate his spirited support for Harris, others see his statement as a mere publicity stunt. Nonetheless, it has succeeded in drawing additional attention to Harris’s campaign uniquely and unconventionally.
The unfolding political scenario in the U.S. continues to capture the world’s attention, with notable figures like Charly Boy adding their voices to the chorus. As America inches closer to the election, all eyes will be on Kamala Harris and her ability to secure the Democratic nomination and ultimately, the presidency.
