The comment, “Must you complain about everything. Give honour to whom honour is due for,” tries to dismiss Peter Obi’s criticism by suggesting he should overlook injustice and focus on praising certain individuals instead. This mindset is harmful because it implies that respect or “honour” should be given even when wrongdoing or unfairness is present, effectively normalizing double standards.
Holding leaders and institutions accountable is essential for a just society. Public figures have a duty to speak out against inequality, not stay silent to maintain appearances. True honour is earned through fairness and integrity, not by ignoring injustice.
