Warn Your Children Not To Protest In Lagos; Let My Father Rule For Three Years Before You Complain – Shade Tinubu Tells Market Women
Folasade Tinubu-Ojo, daughter of President Bola Tinubu and the Iyaloja General of Lagos, has issued a firm warning to market women in Dosumu Market, Lagos, urging them to prevent their children from participating in the August 1 protest against economic hardship under her father’s administration.
In a video message posted on social media, Mrs. Tinubu-Ojo emphatically declared, “Say no to protest.” She addressed the market women directly, emphasizing the importance of discouraging their children from joining the planned demonstrations.
“Let’s talk to our children. There is nothing like protest in Lagos. The Lagos government is doing us well. The government at the centre, led by my father, just assumed office. Before you say a government is not doing well, let it last three years at least,” Mrs. Tinubu-Ojo urged.
Reflecting on the violent aftermath of the EndSARS protests, which began as a movement against extrajudicial killings and extortion by the Special Anti-Robbery Squad (SARS) of the Nigerian Police Force, Mrs. Tinubu-Ojo lamented the destruction of properties and loss of lives that ensued. She warned, “Prevention is better than treatment. We will not suffer the loss of lives. Let everyone warn her children.”
Her warning is part of a broader effort by pro-Tinubu forces to counter the growing mobilization of citizens planning nationwide demonstrations in response to economic hardship exacerbated by soaring food prices. Since the protest announcement, President Tinubu has engaged in meetings with religious leaders, traditional rulers, governors, and security agencies to garner support against the demonstrations.
Following these meetings, many religious leaders and monarchs have joined in opposing the protests. Meanwhile, security agencies have intensified efforts to arrest citizens involved in supporting or organizing the protest activities. Mrs. Tinubu-Ojo’s message underscores the administration’s stance and the lengths it is willing to go to maintain order and stability amid rising public discontent.

“ How can you pardon your son and ignore other people that have been there for years,That is abuse of power” – Donald Trump to Biden
Former President Donald Trump has expressed his dissatisfaction with President Joe Biden’s decision to pardon his son while others who committed similar crimes remain in prison. Trump didn’t mince words, stating:
“How can you pardon your son and ignore other people that have been there for years? That is abuse of power.”
He went on to emphasize the unfairness of the situation, adding:
“Your son committed a crime, the same crime that other people committed, and they have been in prison for years. What happens to them after you free your son? That is abuse of power. People should be treated the same in America.”
Trump’s remarks highlight a broader concern about equal treatment under the law and the potential misuse of presidential power. His critique implies that Biden’s actions set a precedent that undermines the justice system, sparking debates across political and social platforms.
The issue has stirred significant controversy, with many questioning whether the pardon reflects favoritism. While Biden’s supporters may argue that his decision was personal, critics like Trump see it as an affront to the principles of fairness and justice in America.

“Why will flavour call kcee copy copy akaria” – these men are doing well in their lane, and because I am biased towards Flavour’s music, I will not speak ill of Kcee’s efforts, fan said
Kcee released an album titled Mr Versatile around July 2024. If he didn’t react to Flavour’s “copy copy akaria”, I wouldn’t know he released an album this year.
I enjoy the music of both illustrious sons of Ala Igbo. If I were at a wedding reception or inside the bedroom, I would hear more of Flavour’s songs. At a club, I would hear a mixture of Kcee and Flavour’s songs. If I were at a burial, I would hear Flavour’s songs more.
If I sampled the opinions of 30 random men and women between 40 and 60 years old who they preferred between both artists, many would say Flavour.
When Kcee called Flavour a needle in the ocean of things that matter, I assume he may be referring to another thing and not music. When it comes to music, Flavour is the ocean.
Kcee made an important point by stating no one should gatekeep the Igbo culture, and I agree with him. Anyone who feels their creative juice connects to their Igbo culture should create authentic sounds that will remain evergreen in our hearts and not belittle others for trying.
Before Flavour released his 2005 album N’abania, KC Presh (Kcee and Presh) had toured the country after their Star Quest success in 2002. Both men have come a long way and invested so much in their crafts.
Both men are doing well in their lane, and because I am biased towards Flavour’s music, I will not speak ill of Kcee’s efforts. We all have access to the Internet, streaming and concert numbers. You can be the judge.
Today, judging from current statistics of active musicians, no Igbo artist is more prominent than Flavour of Africa.
You may not like a man because you don’t have access to him, or both of you don’t roll, but don’t discredit his hard work.
