Femi Durojaiye Joins Protests, Criticizes Pro-Government Colleagues
Nollywood actor Femi Durojaiye has joined the nationwide #EndBadGovernance protests, criticizing his colleagues who have sided with the government. In an interview at the protest in Ojota, Lagos, Durojaiye condemned certain Nigerian actresses who supported the government but are now facing backlash from the public. He pointed out that many of these actresses have turned off their social media comment sections to avoid criticism, highlighting how they are now hiding from the anger of Nigerians.
Durojaiye passionately reaffirmed his commitment to the cause, stating that he and others who believe in change are prepared to sacrifice their lives if necessary to end bad governance. The protests, which began on August 1, 2024, are a response to widespread dissatisfaction with governance and increasing hunger in Nigeria. Unfortunately, the demonstrations have resulted in clashes between police and local miscreants in several states, including Abuja, Lagos, Kano, and Borno.
Two Nigerian music stars, Rema and Asake, have earned a place in former U.S. President Barack Obama’s annual list of favorite songs for 2024.
On Saturday, Obama shared his handpicked selection of tracks from the year, and both artists’ songs were included.
Rema’s hit single Yayo and Asake’s collaboration with Travis Scott on Active made the prestigious list..
The list also saw the inclusion of another African artist, South Africa’s Tyla, who was featured for her song Jump, a track featuring Gunna and Skillibeng.
In addition to the African stars, Nigerian-American singers Shaboozey and Jordan Adetunji also appeared on Obama’s playlist.
Shaboozey’s A Bar Song and Adetunji’s Kehlani were celebrated for their unique sound, adding diversity to the mix.
As expected, the list also featured big names from the global music scene, with legendary artists like Kendrick Lamar, Beyoncé, and Karol G all making an appearance.
These mainstream stars continue to dominate the music industry, but Obama’s inclusion of emerging artists such as Rema and Asake shows his appreciation for a variety of musical genres.
On sharing his list with his followers via X (formerly Twitter), Obama encouraged fans to explore the tracks, saying, “Here are my favorite songs from this year!
Check them out if you’re looking to shake up your playlist, and let me know if there’s a song or artist I should make sure to listen to.”
