Nigerian musician Inetimi Alfred Timaya Odon, also known as Timaya, has slammed distributors of fake alcoholic products.
The enraged musician, who appeared to have been scammed by a seller of fake drink, swore that things would not go well with those who sells such products.
Timaya lashed out on his X handle, saying, “It will never be well with people that sell fake alcohol. Amen.”
Recalls that artist BNXN, known as Buju, called out a bar in December for selling him adulterated and fake alcoholic beverages at the same price as original ones.
The musician emphasized the significance of respecting customers health and money.
BNXN, who would not reveal the name of the lounge, warned that if it happened again, he would seize the microphone from the club’s hypeman to expose them.
In other news, Charles Oputa, the legendary artist popularly known as Charly Boy, has expressed trust in Nigerian youths and their determination to protest against the country’s hardships.
He stated that he is preparing the youths to stage a nationwide demonstration because he feels they have the potential to save their country from the wrong hands.
It was reported earlier that Nigerians announced a plan to embark on nationwide protest that would last for almost two weeks, beginning from August 1 to August 10.
Amid the reports of the planned demonstration circulating online, authorities issued a statement prohibiting protests across the country and warning adolescents against ‘disrupting the peace.’
Charly Boy responded to this by telling the Daily Post, “I am completely supportive of whatever the young people will do to reclaim their stolen country.” I’ve been a fan of the youngsters for decades. I support anything they can do to put a stop to this morass.
“Until that day, I will sit in my house watching. When they finally say enough is enough and they mean it, their father will be in the front. That time I will know that they are now serious. ‘I go know say their mumu don belefu’ them.
“We are all shopping from the same market. We are all feeling it. Do you think I’m happy with the situation? Do you think I’m happy with the environment? It is affecting me also.
“Police can stop any protest. The only thing that can stop protest is fear in the young people, that is the only hindrance. It is our civil right to protest. As long as we are doing it in a civil and non-violent way, it is very much allowed.
“One day, them go wake-up the country and them go regret all the stealing and oppressions that they have done. The Federal lawmakers that are collecting billions of naira when people are suffering, the young Nigerians know them. They know their address, they know their girlfriends, they know where the lawmakers travel to. When the heat starts, they will know.
“I will advise as a father that the protest should be peaceful. There are a lot of things that they can peacefully do that can send powerful messages. Nobody needs to resort to violence.
“We see what is happening in Kenya, we can do better. I have always believed in the exceptional youths of this country. I know that the day they will say enough is enough, it will be enough”.
