In the midst of the federal government’s prohibition, singer Eedris Abdulkareem started a social media challenge called “Tell Your Papa.”
The singer’s recently released anti-Tinubu song, “Tell Your Papa,” was reportedly banned from all radio and television stations by the Nigerian government.

The song was classified as “inappropriate, and offensive” by the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) in a report signed by Susan Obi, the organization’s Coordinating Director of Broadcast Monitoring.
In an Instagram post in response to the ban, Abdulkareem called the government’s actions a “attempt to silence the truth and suppress criticism.”
In a recent development, though, the musician said on his Instagram page that it’s time to confront those in positions of authority by launching the “Tell Your Papa” challenge.
“Nothing strengthens authority so much as silence,” he commented, sharing the challenge post. Speaking and remaining mute have their proper times. Now is your chance to speak up and be heard.
