What is the difference between Jonathan, Jang and Jagajaga?
By: A concerned Nigerian

Over 10 years ago, Eedris Abdulkareem, the legendary Musical Artist of Nigeria sang a hit banger song titled Jagajaga.

Even though the song pitched Eedris against the authority,particularly the then president which forced Eedris out of the country and get is song banned from being played on all radio and TV stations,but Nigerian youths were busy unbanning the song by playing it in their homes and the DJ's in parties in and outside Nigeria.

The content of the song is a reality,though bitter in the hear of the authority. in fact, it is a propehcy of what is yet to happen,but we didn't see it. Instead of the govt to work and improve the condition of life Eedris complained about in his song, the govt was busy chasing shadows.

10 years after, The Jagajaga Eedris refer to in his hit song finally surfaced with his gray hair in his 70's at the NGF election.

After loosing the chairmanship position in an open,free,fair and transparent election as captured by the video released, Mr Jona which Eedris mistakenly refer to in his song as jaga, in collaboration with another Jona which Eedris also mistakenly refer to as Jagajaga decided to jagajagize the NGF and now the Rivers State Assembly.

You would notice that, Eedris mention JagaJaga many times in his song, this is a short form of Jona in Plateau and Jona in Abuja,which the combination of both makes up the Jagajaga Eedris is rightly refering to in his song.

If the song is to be rightly recomposed, it would be said that, Nigeria Jaga(Jona Abuja) Jaga(Jona Plateau). everything scatter (NGF) Scatter (Rivers Assembly). Poor man dey suffer (in Plateau crisis) Suffer(Rivers crisis). Gbosa Gbosa...Gun Shot... this is apart from suffer (Subsidy) Suffer (Boko Haram). Gbosa Gbosa. gun shoot i dey hear.


If you didn't remember the lyrics of the song, see below:...

Turn up my microphone
INTRO
It's time to hear some reality

2004, Abdulkareem, whad up
CHORUS (x2)

Everything scatter scatter
Poor man dey suffer suffer
Gbosa, gbosa, gun shot inna de air

VERSE 2
Armed robber came to your house
E no take money, E no rape your wife
Went straight up to your bedside (Gbosa)
Six feet, now you are down
Which armed robber no want money
Which armed robber no want jolly
Na political armed robber be that
Na wetin dey kill Nigeria o

REPEAT CHORUS (x2)

VERSE 2
If you see Kiyamo Biya Biya
They lock am for jail for Abuja
Kingsley Agbe sef dey for here
Ade Bendel na him dey feed all of them
Yepa, inside prison, prison
Everything scatter scatter
Poor man dey suffer suffer
Gbosa, gbosa, gun shot inna di air

REPEAT CHORUS (x2)

BRIDGE
Africa, make you love your land
Africa, this na motherland
We dey grow (x2) [eh]
There's still bad world
We dey grow oh oh oh oh oh
There's bad world

VERSE 3
[Eedris, what about COJA now]
Won ti ko owo wa ja
NEPA, won ti di regular 419 in Nigeria
Agege to Ikeja na 100 naira
Fuel scarcity na popular
Action film for Nigeria
[Eedris, where Charles Taylor dey now?]
He dey live big life
Fine estate for Calabar
That na Liberian mafia
For Nigeria
Everything jaga jaga
Everything scatter scatter
Poor man dey suffer suffer
Gbosa, gbosa, gun shot inna di air
What you are say

REPEAT CHORUS (till fade)

Africa, make you love your land
Africa is na motherland
