By now, we all have been made aware of the planned nationwide protest by Tuface. what some of us have not considered is the implications of the protest. here is my take on same;

1. Tuface Underlines his Status as a Trailblazer

most musicians will rather sing about women, how much they are making and how much they spend in the club. by leading the protest, he is showing the others that musicians can influence the larger society politically.


2. He is setting himself for a political post.

Simply put, the last person who did this kind of thing was Tunde Bakare. afterwards, he became running mate to Buhari and currently has a strong influence in the government of the day.


3. NLC in uneasy and difficult position

When the ugly governor from one of the south south states was still the NLC president, this protest would have been led by the NLC. now they dont know if they are to follow tuface- which will be a damning acknowledgement that they have lost their role...or they abstain from the protest- which is worse since it will mean they have lost reckoning in the scheme of demonstrations.


4. The Government is uneasy about the protest

that the government is jittery and wants to stop the protest by all means is an acknowledgement of their poor performance. That the Protest also has such large support within a few days says a lot about the mood of Nigerians.

5. Government controls most social media Platforms including Nairaland.

in case you havnt noticed, only stories supporting the government or government policies are pushed on most popular social media platforms including nairaland. that explains why this piece will likely not get to front page but the anti protest stories will make it.

Feel free to add yours.

fucking true

I concur but saying Nairaland hasn't been supportive on this protest isn't fair bro.

That after the protest #AlutaContinual

Noting will change.

All we need is collective voice to demand accountability from every arms of Govt, starting from LGA level, not focusing on FG center alone

The hunger wey go kill you still dey do press up.


N500 = $1

Kerosene = N500/litre


Unstable Electricity = N23.05 / kW

Employment given to the sons and allies of the politicians alone with majority of them from the north.


Are you still standing?

i dont tink he has much tho.

I will surely protest, my only source of joy is i didn't make my self uncomfortable by going a long distance to vote on election day even though i donated and campaigned for president Buhari.

I have noticed no5 too. I don't know the moderator for Politics section, but I notice he is sympathetic to anything that is pro Islam and this government. I think we need an atheist to head this section.

I STAND WITH 2BABA.


Play the 2face Idibia

"E Be Like Say"
(feat. Soul E)

Oh ma God, oh oh oh
e be lik say dey 1 tell us wetin we neva hear b4!
2baba dey hiaaa! plus soul e baba dey hia!
zapadapadap dapadap de dapadap
de dapadap de
no be small tin oh [x4]
I say
no be small tin oh [x3] eh

Looking back through all the years
That you and I have spent together
It seems like you’ve been playing me all along
So many times, you asked me to put the whole of my trust in you
So many times, you betrayed and played me for a fool
Why don’t we work together so the future will be brighter
Cos, e be like you and I
We dey need each other all the time
All the time
Another year has come
And now you want my trust once more
Oh no

E be, like say you want me to tell me another story again oh (e be like say)
E be like say you want to act another movie again oh (e be like say)
E be like say you want to code another coding again oh (e be like say)
E be like say you want to dance
Galala na di new dance, again oh
You want to sing another song again (e be like say)
E be like say you want to code
You want to code oh

See, all I want to say is that
They don’t really care about us
Because all they want to do is to get in touch with big bucks
Because they think the money gives them the power
But the power is nothing
If your people cannot get quality education
The power is nothing
If your people keep on dying of disease and starvation
The power is nothing
If your people have no peace (no peace)
The power is nothing
If your people cannot live in unity (eh)
See, why do you keep deceiving the people, my brother, my sister
See, why you make all this people to dey fight one another
Only God can judge you now [x4]
Another year has come
And now you want my vote once more
Oh no

E be, like say they want to tell me another story again oh
(e be like say)
E be like say they want to act another movie again oh (e be like say)
E be like say they want to do another deceiving again oh
E be like say dem want to dance
Galala, na di new dance, again o
They want to sing another song again
They want to sing [x2]
E be like say they want to code
They want to dance

I dedicate this one to all of the shady politicians
Wey go promise and fail and make the people live in harsh conditions
I dedicate this one to all of the shady politicians
Why don’t you change your ways
Change your ways now
Make the people live the way they are supposed to live
E no be small thing o
As you see me so (no be small thing o)
I no send, I no send you oh (no be small thing o)
All of the shady politicians (no be small thing o)
As you see me so (no be small thing o)
I no send, I no send you oh (no be small thing o)
All of the shady politicians (I say no be small thing o)

****

so why is traffic limited to only those issues?

i dont run an IT platform...besides we dont all have to be blogeers or IT persons...

so cos singing about sex gets you more fans...you should?

A lot of Nigerians dont say anything when the Police and Army shoot unarmed IPOB protesters.


I will be waiting to see if the same people also keep their mouths shut when Police and Army shoot unarmed Tuface protesters.


What is good for the Goose is also good for the Gander

Who knows how many people go die that day

Your number 3 tho, shey na Os..... u dey call ugly governor ??
Nice write ups
istandwith

No 2 is not intentional.

Tuface didn't start the protest. He simply lent his voice to it and it became his thing because he may have been the first celebrity to do that.

Now he is reckoned with the protest and I salute his courage for forging ahead inspite of threats and oppositions.
