Eedris Tells Seyi Tinubu to Face the Truth That Nigerians Are Suffering
Veteran artist Eedris Abdulkareem is calling on Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, to step up and tell his father the truth about how much Nigerians are struggling.
He made this call through his new track Tell Your Papa, which appears to be a direct response to Seyi’s recent comments where he praised his father as the best president Nigeria has ever had—a statement that stirred up mixed reactions, especially among the youth in Adamawa State where he made the remark.
In the song, Eedris doesn’t hold back. He criticizes Seyi for being out of touch with the realities on ground, accusing him of ignoring the pain and hardship ordinary citizens face every day.
He raps, “Seyi, tell your papa say the country don hard. People dey die. This one don pass jagajaga.”
He goes on, “Seyi, your papa no try at all. Nigerians dey suffer. Too many empty promises. Kidnappers dey everywhere.”
The song also challenges Seyi to ditch his security escorts and travel by road like everyday Nigerians so he can truly feel what the people are going through. “You dey fly private jet, so insecurity no concern you,” he sings.
Eedris is clearly using music to speak up for the masses, and he’s not sugarcoating anything.
Nigerian singer Asake speaks on his music career and stated how growing up in Lagos shaped his career and experiences.
In a recent interview, the singer shared how Lagos groomed him and taught him how to live:
“Lagos taught me how to live like a man. Lagos inspired most of my songs,” he said.
“I’m happy because there are a lot of people who make music out there and a lot of people who are more talented than me. I’m thankful to God that I’m able to use the talent He gave me not only locally but also globally. So for that, I give all thanks to God.”
Nigerian reality star and actor Adeoluwa Okusaga, also known as Saga, shares that kissing scenes on screen are not something actors actually enjoy.
The actor shared in a recent interview that kissing is usually scripted and often has no real emotion attached to it.
“It is not easy to kiss another actor. It is weird. I have not really had any good onscreen kiss. It is weird having people invade your mouth with saliva.
“It is not something we enjoy. People think we enjoy it, but we don’t. We are just doing it for the story most times. If I had my way, I won’t kiss anyone in a film… There was a day I kissed four different girls on set.”
Nigerian actress Tonto Dikeh speaks on her failed marriage and the truth behind it. It can be noted that the actress was previously married to Churchill.
The actress revealed that she was the one who paid for their wedding, stating that she even paid for his outfit.
She also shared that while she was pregnant, she still handled the wedding expenses alone.
