Nigerian skit maker and actor Aloma Isaac Junior, also known as Zic Saloma, has addressed the harsh criticism he received online after he made a video with his elderly mother.

In the clip, Zic Saloma revealed that his mother, who is over 70 years old and battling cancer, wanted to attend his movie premiere.

He expressed his uncertainty about her strength but noted that she was recovering well after undergoing chemotherapy.

However, the video sparked a wave of negative comments, with many viewers making hurtful remarks about his mother’s appearance, including comments about her nose and calling her ugly.

In response, Zic Saloma called out the online trolls, labelling them as part of a “finished generation.”

While he claimed that the negative comments did not affect him personally, he found it unacceptable that his mother was being targeted.

The skit maker expressed his disappointment in the younger generation, questioning their ability to make informed decisions about governance and societal issues.

He appreciated the supportive comments he received but was disheartened by the unkind remarks from young adults, both locally and internationally.

“I saw some comments saying my mum’s nose is big, asking me, ‘Why you no do surgery for her?’ People were saying my mother is ugly. You’re saying this about a woman who is over 70 years old, fighting a terminal illness like cancer. I wish most of you saying all these negative things about my mum will get to 70 years and look as good as she does.

“Trust me, comments do not get to me. I knew this generation was bad, but I did not know this generation was finished. That is why sometimes I say we deserve what we get in this country.

“I saw the sweet comments and I appreciate them, but the negative comments from young adults, even people abroad, were higher than you can imagine.

“People who reason like this, how can they vote for a good government? How can there not be tribalism? How can there not be religious sentiments?” Zic Saloma said.
