Nigerian media personality Toke Makinwa faced significant backlash after condemning looting and vandalism during the ongoing national protests on August 1, 2024. On X, she criticized the destruction, stating it was wrong for Nigerians to steal from each other during such hardships.  This comment drew criticism from users who accused her of not supporting the #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria movement, leading to heated exchanges.

One user criticized her lack of support for the movement, prompting a blunt response from Makinwa. Another user defended her, arguing that the ruling party orchestrated the theft to frame peaceful protesters, to which Makinwa clarified her stance.

Further criticism came from a user who accused Makinwa of being aligned with the government and claimed she was paid off. Makinwa responded by questioning why the critic was not protesting in the streets, suggesting their anger was misplaced. This controversy highlights the deep divisions and tensions surrounding the national protests and the #EndBadGovernanceInNigeria movement.
