Nigerian singer Temilade Openiyi, better known as Tems, has postponed the release of her new music video for the single “Burning.” This decision comes as a show of support for the ongoing nationwide protests in Nigeria. The protests are against the hardships and poor governance that many Nigerians are facing.
Tems shared her decision on August 1, 2024, through her X account. She expressed her respect for the protests and prayed for the safety of everyone participating. Her message read, “Out of respect for the ongoing protest at home, I have decided to postpone the release of the Burning music video. Praying for the safety of those outside at this time. May the voice of the people be heard.”
The singer’s move highlights her solidarity with the people of Nigeria during this difficult time, hoping that their voices will bring about positive change.
