Hmm 24 years ago.
What baba fela warned Nigerians about is currently happening several years after his death. He used his music to fight for the right of people, to criticize bad government and to expose the lies of government. He was so impactful but more important beyond impactful on Earth is the end of our Journey after our sojourn on Earth. Accept the Love of Christ today

Every day and night you dey hear me talk
One day you self you agree with me
To dey act the way as you dey feel
Remember if you no act your own
One day of course we must die

Abeg rest

We get too many issues dealing with .

This country needs to remember how to be sane not dead musicians. If it was just the leaders that are the problem then we are not far from salvation. But the average Nigeria is more animal them human.

They don't care about what is right, just instant gratification.

They don't want to do anything legit. The only country I have seen people similar to Nigerians is Brazil. In the slums , they remind one so much of Nigerians.

Nigerians need a reset of mentality. The problem is form individual homes and lack of decent home training. This is why 99% of Nigerian women are whöres while the men and fraudsters.

They think money is everything, they don't respect values or integrity. Tomorrow they will blame Buhari , when just read the posts on front page here and see how they think.

Was it Buhari that made those youth nearly kill that young graduate who went for a job interview in the other thread?

Before we blame only Hausa..Where the Aluu 4 murdered by Fulani ?

Until we all realize there is something wrong with all Nigerians of all tribes except the Edo people then we aren't going anywhere
