Nigerian rapper Falz has spoken out against the government’s handling of the ongoing nationwide protests over the economic crisis. In a series of tweets, Falz criticized President Tinubu, questioning his response to the crisis and warning about possible consequences.
Falz’s tweets expressed his frustration:
- “They say make you leave am, you no gree. Say na your birthright. You can’t now turn a deaf ear.”
- “How long do you think you can keep on pushing the people back before it blows up in your face?”
- “You tried to make it look like the protests were ‘politically motivated’. Shebi una don see now?”
- “Genuinely don’t know why it’s so difficult to be humane.”
Falz argued that the government is trying to downplay the protests as politically motivated, but the real issues are the economic struggles faced by the people. He urged President Tinubu to address these problems and show more concern for the citizens before things get worse.
Falz’s comments join a growing number of celebrities and public figures calling for better governance and accountability from the government. The rapper’s intervention highlights the need for humane governance and genuine concern for the people’s struggles. His call to action is clear: the government must take responsibility and address the nation’s problems before it’s too late.
