This is Fight music!
The End sars protests on the streets of Nigeria may have been truncated by the very aggressive Government approach of shooting at the protesters, but the voice of the masses of Nigeria has been heard throughout the world. Pictures of the shooting incident at the Lekki toll gate that surfaced online showed the Nigerian police and the Nigerian military shooting at unarmed protesters, injuring and killing many in the process; something that the Nigerian government has denied. The lesson from this is that we as Nigerian people should ensure that we elect credible people into political office. We should no longer accept people with questionable character or those with past misdeeds as leaders. A leopard never loses it’s spots.
Now that it is apparent that the people in power do not mind killing protesters, it is time for the youths of Nigeria to restrategize and come up with other ways to pressure the Government to listen to their concerns. Music however is one of many ways to achieve this. Historically, music has been used effectively to effect change, raise awareness over a social issue, and pressure the Government into making the right decisions. Music is a massive weapon for activism. Here is a mix by DJ Final that comprises many of the revolutionary songs of years to years from Fela Anikulapo Kuti down to present-day Afrobeat artists.
