Falz 'This Is Nigeria’ Video Harmless – Entertainment Lawyer Says by mary4(f): 2:58am On Jun 09, 2018 |
Entertainment lawyer, Akinyemi Ayinoluwa, on Friday condemned the seven-day ultimatum given to rapper Folarin Falana, aka Falz, by Muslims Rights Concern, to withdraw This is Nigeria video from circulation. The News Agency of Nigeria reports that MURIC in a statement signed by its Executive Director, Prof. Ishaq Akintola, had ordered Falz to withdraw the video from circulation within seven days from yesterday (Thursday). According to Akintola, the video ridicules the Islamic religion because some girls were seen in the footage wearing hijab and dancing Shaku shaku. Falz’s latest track, This is Nigeria is an adaptation of the US performer Childish Gambino’s This is America, which has generated more than four million views on YouTube in just two weeks. Ayinoluwa said, “A careful and non-passionate scrutiny of Falz’s work reveals an impactful attempt at social commentary. “In the video, Nigeria’s many challenges were depicted in about three minutes. “It touched on the relevant and relatable ills citizens endure on a daily basis. “Amongst issues highlighted were issues of SARS (Police Brutality), Drug Abuse (Codeine), and corruption, the kidnap of the Chibok girls, Fulani herdsmen killings and fake pastors. “High school fees paid for university education at some of the Christian universities and others. “Are these issues not serially reported in the newspapers? “he said. The lawyer said that Akintola had refused to interpret Falz’s work of art objectively and his failure to understand satire or parody was blatant. “MURIC has not been able to censor Falz who has exercised his rights to freedom of expression. “This expression has not been targeted at any religion or singled out any tribe for hate. Instead, it has beamed its light on issues that need attention,’’ he said. Ayinoluwa said that if Akintola felt so strongly about Falz, he should channel his complaints to the right authorities or approach the court of law. NAN reports that Folarin Falana, a.k.a. Falz, is a Nigerian rapper, performer, and songwrite who came into limelight after he released his song titled “High Class. Falz later released his present studio collection titled “Wazup Guy” which included “Ello Bae”. Ello Bae won him a selection in the “Best Street Hop Artiste of The Year 2015” classification at the Headies Awards. However, the management of Falz in its reaction wrote on his twitter handle, @falzthebahdguy: “we have nothing to say. “We are not withdrawing the video neither are we commenting on their claims. “ If they (MURIC) have any grievances they can head to court and we will meet them there,” it said.

This is one of the very few times you will see a dancer or vixen in a secular Nigerian music video and THE MESSAGE WAS PASSED. Many Muslim colleagues of mine don't even see why so much drama has been attached to the video. Hopefully, someone will take MURIC seriously and check their excesses. 14 Likes 1 Share |

This is Nigeria where 1) politicians will always want to kill themselves to remain in power claiming they are ready to serve 2) PHCN bill you by estimation for light not supplied. 3) Governors help sell corn, groundnut by the roadside during election but immediately after election they roll up their car glass and splash water on same people after the win the election. 4) meat always finish in party before rice 5) if you carry laptop bag walking on the street you pray not to meet thieves on the road but Police so that you won't be arrested as a yahoo boy. 6) crude oil is in abundance as natural resources but citizens have to queue up to buy petrol or kerosene. 7) politicians know that its citizens are tribal and religion war lords and has taken advantage of that to always get back to the office even though they steal public money without during much. SARS are always hurting the people that they are paid to defend. 9) power generating company are using generators as back up in case they take the light. 10) Bail is free but the paper and biro to write the bail application is not free. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Falz 'This Is Nigeria’ Video Harmless – Entertainment Lawyer Says by okwabayi(m): 1:57pm On Jun 09, 2018 |
I finally got to watch the video yesterday. He's right, it is harmless. I believe Falz didn't cover enough of our ills in society. It was sad he didn't mention the average Nigerian's hypocrisy. I could think of three more vices but I can't remember them right now. Any call to ban the video is done wholly out of shame. Only those who feel guilty for what was portrayed will feel the need to attack it. MURIC must have soiled hands hence their outcry. 3 Likes |

I wonder who made that kind of clothing some people call "hijab" exclusive to Islam. Anybody can wear anything he/she likes. Why havn't they protested against the use of hijab by suicide bombers? If only MURIC knows how many Arab ladies with hijab sucking di<k on p0rnhub . If you doubt me just type "x.xx hijab" on google and entertain yourself. 4 Likes |
