Nigerian musician Eedris Abdulkareem has released a new diss track, drawing attention to the ongoing struggles of Nigerian citizens.
In his song, titled Tell Your Papa, Eedris directs his frustration at President Bola Tinubu and his son, Seyi, accusing them of ignoring the difficulties faced by the people. The track, shared on Instagram on Sunday, calls out the lack of action from the president and highlights the worsening state of the nation.
Eedris also addressed Seyi directly, urging him to pass the message to his father that Nigerians are suffering. The singer criticized the privileged lifestyle of the elite, pointing out that Seyi’s frequent use of private jets distances him from the harsh realities Nigerians face on the ground.
While singing, Eedris said: “Seyi, people are hungry, Tinubu, people are hungry, Seyi, I swear, your papa no try. Take our message to him, try travel by road. You travel on private jet so insecurity is not your problem. Tell your papa country hard, this one pass jagajaga. Too much empty promises. Tell your papa people dey die.”
The song reflects the growing frustration among Nigerians over the current administration’s failure to fulfill promises and address the country’s pressing challenges.
