‘Nigeria Still Jaga Jaga 21 Years After’ – Eedris Abdulkareem
Legendary musician Eedris Abdulkareem has expressed his thoughts on the current state of Nigeria, 21 years after the release of his controversial song “Jaga Jaga,” which criticized the poor living conditions in the country.
He highlighted that Nigeria is still struggling and emphasized that the situation is deteriorating, pointing out that the Dollar exchange rate is approaching N2,000.
Abdulkareem shared his concerns about the growing hardships in the nation during a recent appearance as a guest on The Honest Bunch Podcast, hosted by actors Chinedu Ani Emmanuel (Nedu), Deity Cole, and Husband Material.
Abdulkareem said, “Nigeria still Jaga Jaga 21 years later. Hunger everywhere, people are dying. How will people survive when Dollar is N1600? Goodluck Jonathan left it N198. [Muhammadu] Buhari took it to N300, [Bola] Tinubu skyrocketed it to N1600.
“Dollar is going to N2000. So how do you want common people to survive in this country? Even the Yorubas they were shouting ‘Emilokan’, they are the ones dying of hunger now.”
