Ace Nigerian rapper Eedris Abdulkareem had released a new protest song, calling on President Bola Tinubu’s son, Seyi Tinubu, to urge his father to address Nigeria’s lingering and perennial economic and security crises.
But Mr Abdulkareem’s song targets the younger Tinubu over his commentary, portraying him as disconnected from the struggles of ordinary Nigerians.
“Seyi, tell your papa, country hard. Tell your papa, people dey die. Tell your papa this one don pass jagajaga,” the rapper sings in Pidgin English, referencing his earlier protest anthem “Jaga Jaga.”
In the new song, Mr Abdulkareem accuses President Tinubu of failing Nigerians through unfulfilled promises and worsening socio-economic conditions.
He spotlighted the growing insecurity, inflation, and widespread hardship across the country and demanded that the young Tinubu experience life without privilege.
