What made the occasion unbearable for netizens was Seyi Tinubu’s recent feud with the singer’s senior colleague, Eedris Abdulkareem.
TheTalk.NG recalls that the ace Nigerian rapper Eedris Abdulkareem criticised President Bola Tinubu and his son, Seyi, over the country’s economic hardship and policies.
To that effect, Eedris released a protest track, “Tell Your Papa,” which has been banned by the National Broadcasting Commission.

The controversial rapper said the track was a response to Seyi Tinubu’s public declaration that his father is Nigeria’s greatest president. The singer also called for action amid the country’s worsening economic and security conditions.
