As Nigerian protesters continue the movement to end police brutality for a “better Nigeria”, Nigerian singer Reekado Bank chose thought it was a good time to announce the release of his new song.
Reeekado Banks in a tweet announced that his song “Omo Lomo,” a collaboration with superstar singer Wizkid is set for release at midnight.
The tweet has since generated controversy as many lambasted the singer for being insensitive to think about releasing a song at this time of protest. Interestingly, his collaborator Wizkid is also one of those who came for him for that decision.
In a now-deleted response to the tweet, Wizkid called Banks a “fool” for choosing this period to promote “Omo Lomo.”
Wizkid has been very vocal about his support of the #EndSARS campaign and attended a protest held in London
