Seun Kuti Says Tinubu’s Policies Are to Protect Politicians Not Ordinary Nigerians
Afrobeat singer Seun Kuti has slammed President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, saying his only real achievement so far is shielding criminals. Kuti believes most of Tinubu’s harsh economic policies were never about helping ordinary Nigerians but rather designed to protect the political elite from facing justice.
The Grammy-nominated musician also called out FCT Minister Nyesom Wike, saying Wike’s biggest concern during his latest media chat wasn’t about solving Nigeria’s problems but about the new opposition coalition trying to shake things up. According to Kuti, Wike was upset that some opposition politicians are now turning against Tinubu despite all the president has allegedly done to shield the political class.
In a video shared online, Kuti mocked Wike’s recent comments saying, “That media chat deserves some plots of land in my books. Wike even revealed that during Amaechi’s time as Rivers governor, his wife was allegedly collecting N4 billion monthly. It would’ve been nice if he mentioned how long that lasted.” He added that Wike and other Tinubu loyalists are only interested in protecting the status quo. “If you listened carefully, Wike wasn’t talking to Nigerians, he was warning the opposition politicians not to scatter things.”
Kuti stressed that when politicians claim Tinubu has made tough decisions for the country, it’s all a cover-up. “The only bold thing this president has done is bury crimes under more crimes. But for those crimes to stay buried, it takes wickedness. That’s why Nigerians are suffering. Something was taken from the people, and now we’re paying the price,” he said.
Nigerian singer Harry song speaks on the rising insecurity in the country and shared that increasing the security income can help improve their performance in securing the country.
The singer took to social media and urged the government “TO MR PRESIDENT. IF YOU REALLY, TRULY WANNA END INSECURITY IN NIGERIA? Start by increasing the salary and allowances of the armed forces. The salary of the army, the navy, the air force, the Nigerian Police Force is too small, too shameful. Increase their salary, this job should be worth dying for. Increase their salaries ooooooo pls and pls.”
Nigerian singer, Peter Okoye from the former duo P-Square, shares his greatest fear. During a recent interview, the singer spoke about his fears and revealed that he is not afraid of death.
Instead, he said he is scared of poverty and has this fear because he has experienced it before. “I am not afraid of death. The only thing I am afraid of in this life is poverty, of being broke.
“I have tasted it [poverty] before. I have been in our house with my parents and siblings, and a bulldozer came and demolished it.”
Popular Nigerian singer, Davido, makes headlines for his gesture of goodwill. It can be noted that during the afternoon performance, the singer paused for one minute of silence to honor his colleague Wizkid’s mother.
The singer paused during his performance and said “Personally, I have lost many loved ones, people close to me, so I understand how Wizkid is feeling right now. May his mother, our mother because she was dear to me, rest in peace.”
This gesture touched many fans, as they were in awe of the singer showing a kind heart despite the usual rivalry between their fan bases.
