The guy finished Lai Mohammed..

If he never arrested that guy, we wouldnt have heard of this poem... Basically Lai Mohammed escalated it.

The man lies to a stage that kwara as no more lies in it. Pure salvage

Mehn! The content will make better sense if you understand Yoruba.

This is what The Nation os those days will refer to as 'Hard Ball'

Oiin!

This is not criticism, this is personal insult.
Their is big difference between criticism and insult.

He deserve award for his boldness to spit the truth. I watched that clip and there was nothing untrue about it.

So Lai Muhammed is this powerful??

This is Tyranny!!!

Abeg is that poetry abi Juju music...biko sue the yeye guy for defamation of character jare.

Hahahaha.The translation was dope.

He is pained because the guy revealed the true nature of Lai. Lai should be careful of the table he's shaking cos u can't keep fooling the Nation forever.

RuudVanNisteroy:
This is the poem (audio) that got the Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, to order the arrest and detention of a Kwara-based poet, Rotimi Jolayemi also known as Oba Akewi.

Before the journalist turned himself to the police, the minister ordered the police to arrest his wife, Mrs Dorcas Jolayemi, and his two brothers, John and Joseph, who are also media practitioners.

However, since the journalist turned himself in to the Police Headquarters in Ilorin, Kwara State, on May 6, 2020, he has been subjected to inhuman treatment at the orders of the Minister of Information.

In what did he defamed him. Poet uses anything to describe events and that's what he just did.

Well, I think the honourable minister should have sought legal action against the man rather than command an arrest

Thank you

If that's the case, then the likes of Trump, Obama, Q. Elizabeth and the likes would have subjected their journalists to capital punishment.

I see why Lai vex

Cos the truth was told

And his career is finished after this tenure

In many places around the world, the citizens will strenuously protest this but Nigerians usually leave people to suffer alone in detention and discuss it on social media.

Though most of the stuff the guy said was false but the ewi sweet die and it's shows that omoluabi get mind wells..... Alhaji should release the guy..

How did the woman end up been a minister? Obviously she is daft, simple question she can't answer, whoever sang the poem may almighty God bless u in abundance for speaking out, they can't stifle every body, the zombie should come and defend the disaster woman ,bunch of corrupt idiot's, this woman is corruption personified, efcc has turned a blind eye on her they are looking for who will help them to repatriate deziani mmaduek joker's.

Is only God that can free this man

Wait till i wax my own fuji music calling you a lair that should be jailed...Oga Lia Muhammed personality should be seperated from his job.Moreover this Chief is even going to make money from insulting another person...let him wax a song with facts.So we can cross check,you have not been a politically expose person so you won't understand how such statements can drain your productivity.

SHUT UP PLZ

He deserves his arrest. Freedom of speech does not mean people should involve in slander.

Wow. This is funny. The man spoke a lot.

i told one guy today to delete his facebook post because of the government , they will arrest him if you complain, to be safe in Nigeria you praise the government either you are hungry or not

I don't believe he should be arrested for what he's said in that poem.

I believe the Poet threw down a gauntlet and he expected the people in government to answer the challenge but by arresting the man, without first proving anything wrong is tantamount to an infringement on his human right....

Though I can't confirm the news of torture, but if thats the case, Human Rights Organizations in the world should wade into such matters.

this is no longer a democracy (people that are intent on creating a law about hate speeches)

*Spits

Thank God I didn't waste my Vote. I'm just sorry that we're all in this boat as country

In as much as the guy said the truth, it is obvious that the guy is another sycophant working for a thief SARAKI

Lol very funny poem.
The Yoruba made it sweet

Truth be told...even if freedom of speech is given...it shouldn't be misused...the akewi too pass his boundary abeg
