Veteran fuji musician Wasiu Ayinde, popularly known as K1 De Ultimate, has urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to proffer urgent solutions to the worsening economic crisis confronting the nation.
He said the current economic hardship in the country needs urgent “attention and remedy.”
The singer noted that Nigerians are angered by the excruciating economic crunch, urging the President to expedite action in tackling the economic turmoil.
K1 De Ultimate made the call while performing at a recent event.
Sharing a clip of his performance via Instagram, he wrote: “Nigeria my country @officialasiwajubat @youthsupporttinubu2023 @officialapcng.”
Part of the lyrics says,
“President Tinubu, I greet you. My fellow Nigerians I greet you. People are saying I sang in support of my boss Tinubu if elected president of Nigeria, citizens will be blessed. They said people who do not have will have money. People seeking God’s face will see him. I indeed believe that Asiwaju will do it.
“Akambi, my boss, listen to the people. Citizens are getting angry please find a solution to this. The cost of fuel and dollar exchange rate and its scarcity. People’s salaries are not enough for them to feed. And I know that Asiwaju my boss will have mercy. People are crying, and weeping while they still lack an adequate supply of electricity. How did we get to the point where they are kidnapping people?
“Tinubu you already have everything before taking up the presidential post. You people aiming to disrupt this government go and find somewhere to hide yourselves. Listen to what the citizens are saying. Nigerians are getting angry including businessmen and professionals.
“I pleaded with you our citizens let us be patient. Tinubu will resolve everything on ground.”
