“Some of you eat food and post it on Facebook…to show your good living,”
“You think you’ve achieved something…because your ancestors were very hungry people.…and you think it’s nice? You are showing that your capacity is low.”
He said that people who show off their lifestyle on social media are ‘so impressed with themselves’, adding that they ‘don’t know how far they need to go’ in life.
“[When] you buy a new shoe, you put it [sic] on Facebook. [When] you buy a new dress, you WhatsApp everybody to look at you.”
