Appending a signature is much easier - the table is supporting both your hand & the pen.

But Tinubu can very easily clear any doubts by holding a tea cup in one of his rallies or Townhall meetings.

PrinceOfLagos:
Rented crowd will not win election for tinubu

See empty spaces everywhere 😂😂😂😆

The dumbness of this man and his followers is matchless.. every religion performs ritual, ridtual itself is not a bad thing as all religion does it.. the laada Muslim does is part of ritual, fasting and prayer is ritual, killing of ram is ritual, praying on anointing oil is ritual.. so why should they ban the music when everyone engage in ritual already..

It's like me saying kuku do prayers and some dumb organization says they should ban my music because I encourage ritual..

Corrinthians:
They'll soon tell you the poster is Hausa trying to sow division in the South.😁😁😁🙄

A country that cannot feed itself is planning to do what?

You guys should start from letter A first before jumping to letter B

gracealonev:
This is curious.
MURIC has suddenly stopped promoting the interest of Yoruba Muslims (which group this same Portable belongs), but now talking about Nigerian and African values.

englishmart:
Tinubu is by far the least qualified candidate.

9jii:
Nigerians suffering will never go in vain after all everybody will rejoice soon.
May good crippled the IPOB/Obi evil agenda of ruling over patriotic Nigerians.

23rd January, 2023
PRESS RELEASE:

A pop singer, Habeeb Okikiola, popularly known as ‘Portable’ has released an album entitled ‘Kuku Do Ritual’. Meanwhile an Islamic human rights organisation, the Muslim Rights Concern (MURIC), has condemned the album for having the potential to encourage ritual killing and misleading Nigerian youth.

MURIC’s statement was released on Monday, 23rd January, 2023 by its director, Professor Ishaq Akintola.

The statement reads :

“Popular pop singer, Habeeb Okikiola, has released a new album under the title ‘Kuku Do Ritual’ in which part of the lyrics say, ‘Kuku do ritual. If you do ritual you go die. If you no do ritual you go die. Kuku do ritual’.

“We find this song disgusting, detestable and egregious. It is a brazen assault on Nigerian and African values. Portable’s latest song has reduced human life to the level of ordinary ants that can be stamped out under human feet without qualms and without consequences. It is an open invitation to criminality. It makes mockery of law and order. It is an open disrespect for human life.

“This song has the capacity to influence our young ones in a negative manner. It is also capable of destroying the future of the youth. Something must be done urgently. Already, there are several reports of young ones engaging in the shameful act for the purpose of getting rich in their tender ages.

“Three teenagers were caught attempting to kill a 13 year old girl for money ritual in Bayelsa State in January 2022 (https://saharareporters.com/2022/01/04/three-teenagers-arrested-bayelsa-during-attempted-ritual-killing-13-year-old-girl).

“Four teenagers living in Abeokuta, Ogun State, killed the girlfriend of one of them for money ritual (https://pmnewsnigeria.com/2022/01/29/4-ogun-teenagers-slaughter-girl-burn-her-head-for-money-ritual/). In fact there is a plethora of ritual killings among young Yahoo practioners in the country (https://punchng.com/of-ritualist-yahoo-teenagers-and-a-sick-country/).

“MURIC calls on all men of goodwill, all mothers in Nigeria, Muslim and Christian leaders to rise against the madness called Yahoo Yahoo and ritual killings among young ones whose ambassador has just released this horrendous song in their praise. ‘Kuku Do Ritual’ is nothing but a eulogy to glorify and elevate the names of ritual killers to high heaven.

“This album calls for immediate action from Nigeria’s traditional rulers. They are the custodians of our tradition. We therefore take our cry for help to these royal fathers to speak up on this sacriledgious song released by ‘Portable’. They must put pressure on the authorities to stop the circulation and broadcast of this album on any radio or television station and through any medium whatsoever.

“We invite the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC), the National Film and Video Censors Board (NFVCB), the Nigerian Copyright Commission (NCC) and the Performing Musicians’ Association of Nigeria (PMAN) to take necessary action with military dispatch.

“We see no reason why the security agencies should not investigate the author of this most embarrassing and irrational song to explain the number of rituals in which he has indulged. A scape goat must be made of this album and its artist before the trend escalates.

“Nobody should hide behind artistic priviledge, poetic licence or freedom of expression to launch such barbaric offensive on our culture, our norms and our values. This is beyond free speech. It is criminal speech. It is incitement to commit murder. It is instigation to criminality. It is a bestial invasion on decency and good manners. It is Bohemian.”

Informations at my disposal from a reliable source have it that the projected were rejected for two reasons.

1.Maduka is from an OSU bloodline

2.He dabbled into their kingship issue by support one of his friend and also he was involved in the renaming of the village to "Umuchukwu" which the villagers are not happy about.

His kinsmen from that village see him as a taboo because he's an OSU.

Is the Olosho counterpart not a yellow Bar mooslim?
