“To fill people with false hope is to light the fuse of an explosion”: controversy by trill of Juanes allegedly against Gustavo Petro

Juan Esteban Aristizábal, better known as Juanes, is one of the most famous Colombian singers in the United States and internationally. The artist of the best hits such as 'Black Shirt', 'See you again' and 'It's not worth it without love' is also recognized for his charitable work and protection of human rights.

This Wednesday, he posted a message on his account about the current situation in the national territory due to the upcoming presidential election, which will take place on Sunday, May 29, 2022.

In the case of this publication, it is a trend and many users of social networks have criticized it. “Let's see, you haven't lived in Colombia for a long time! I don't mind having a ticket and paying 3000 pesos for 1 L of milk or 1000 pesos, but I'm not an ordinary citizen. Do you allow change votes? Where can they live in a decent way? Thank you.” Twitter user Valentina Vega commented

“Alas! Juanes. How nice it is to talk today when the fridge is full. I forgot the time when I showed up in a bar and borrowed money to pay my rent. If I had money, everything was forgotten. But people in poverty must continue to live this way.” Called Cesar A.
