Iyabo Ojo Urges Tinubu to Stop Police Tear Gas on Peaceful Protesters
Nollywood actress Iyabo Ojo has urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to restrain the police from using tear gas on peaceful protesters. As the #EndBadGovernment movements began nationwide on August 1, 2024, reports emerged of clashes between police and local miscreants in multiple states, including Abuja, Lagos, Kano, and Borno. In Abuja, police teargassed a group of protesters at Eagles Square despite the protest being approved for Moshood Abiola National Stadium. According to The Nation, the police attempted to disperse protesters by firing tear gas canisters, but the determined group continued their march.
Similarly, protesters at the Lekki tollgate in Lagos were dispersed using tear gas canisters. These actions sparked outrage and widespread reactions on social media. On August 1, 2024, Iyabo Ojo took to Instagram to condemn the violence. In her posts, she called on President Tinubu and the police to respect the rights of protesters and allow them to demonstrate peacefully. She wrote, “Why are they throwing teargas? @nigeriapoliceforce #peacefulprotest is their right.”
Nigerian singer Wizkid has reacted to the reported clash between Burna Boy and DJ Tunez.
Wizkid took to social media to mock Burna Boy, making controversial remarks and referencing Sean Diddy Combs.
His comments have since sparked reactions online, with fans divided over the ongoing tension between the artists.
Nigerian gospel singer Moses Bliss has reacted to the public backlash he faced following a request he made to graphic designers.
It can be noted that the singer took to social media asking for a graphic designer to create a flyer, which later turned into a challenge that many criticised, stating it undervalued creatives.
Moses Bliss has now issued an apology, saying “I sincerely apologize to every graphic designer who felt disrespected or undervalued… that was never my intention.”
He added “The goal was to give creatives a platform to showcase their work, not to undermine their value.”
Nigerian DJ, DJ Neptune has expressed concern about the growing influence of artificial intelligence in the music industry and how it could affect jobs.
It can be noted that similar concerns have previously been raised online, especially on platforms like Twitter, where many fear AI could replace artists and producers.
He wrote “AI is quietly about to retire the entire music production and mastering industry. I have seen scary things tonight. God help all of us in this ecosystem.”
He further shared how advanced AI tools are already capable of producing high-quality music, raising questions about the future of human creativity in the industry.
