Veteran Nigerian singer, Eedris Abdulkareem, has taken to his verified Instagram account to reply to the Minister of State for Labour and Employment, Festus Keyamo (SAN), who stated that the singer’s new song, Jaga Jaga reloaded, is a poor attempt at blackmail.
According to the minister, Eedris Abdulkareem, who is displaying a stance against the President, Muhammadu Buhari, ones begged to be part of the Buhari Campaign Organisation, which he directed in 2018.
The minister also claimed that the singer asked for a loan to pay for his hotel bills to the tune of N1.3m and money to cater for his ‘sick mum’.
Responding to the allegations, the Jaga Jaga singer admitted that he reached out to Keyamo when his mother was ill because he thought Keyamo was a ‘brother’.
He wrote, “JAGA JAGA TI GET E… Did Festus Keyamo join the cabal or not? When he was in prison, I stood by him; I fought Obasanjo on behalf of all the comrades in prison, I released Jagajaga.
“When my mother was dying, I reached out to a brother, or one I thought was a brother and a comrade. Could he have helped, yes. Did he help, NO. Such was the wickedness of his heart that he munched and kept personal details for three years… real Hallmark of a Blackmailer!” (sick).
Abdulkareem noted that he thought Keyamo was still a ‘comrade’ in 2018 when he approached him. He claimed that Keyamo had joined the ‘cabal’, and with a vexed spirit, he went into the studio to record the song ‘Jaga Jaga reloaded’.
He said, “In 2018, I still thought the man was a comrade. Thought he could effect change in the government he served. Then he joined the cabal, he became inner caucus and held the steering wheel spiralling Nigeria into doom. He joined to crush the revolution of the youths. He joined the cabal; the cabal which mowed down our youths at LEKKI TOLL GATE.
“With a vexed spirit, I went again to the studio for ‘Jagajaga Reloaded’ and the blackmailer went to town. The cabal is awoken. The cabal is hit. The cabal is in pain. The cabal is failing. The cabal will FALL.”
The Mr Lecturer singer explained that the lyrics of the song, Jaja Jaga reloaded, is the current reality of Nigeria, adding that citizens have never had it so bad in the country.
The singer said, “The blackmailer said I recorded a song for Buhari. The said song is titled: ‘Obasanjo Write Buhari Letter’. Here is the link to that song, listen and you will phantom the deviousness and dubiousness of the evil SAN (Senior Advocate Blackmailer of Nigeria) called Festus Keyamo.
“Issues raised on ‘Jagajaga Reloaded’ are facts. Nigeria never had it so bad. The Jagajaga has taken a gargantuan dimension. We must keep asking questions. We must ask the cabal questions.
“Festus Keyamo don join the cabal. He is in pains because his next ambition is to be governor of Delta State; perhaps to localise grand looting, terrorism, murdering and raping of our citizens, kidnapping, which his cabal have romanticised and packaged as banditry, and sundry other mis-governance. This is why Jagajaga ti get e! Festus Keyamo na cabal. Retweet if you agree and like if you don’t.”.
