FLASHBACK: What Don Jazzy Said About Buhari Govt And Electricity In 2015

A tweet made by Nigerian music producer, Michael Ajereh, popularly known as Don Jazzy, has resurfaced on the internet.

Naija News reports that Don Jazzy had taken to the micro-blogging site, Twitter, in October 2015, to reveal that he would throw away his generator should Babatunde Raji Fashola (BRF) become the minister of power.

“Make BBRF just get minister for power like this, I go just throway my generatorsssss,” Don Jazzy had tweeted in 2015.

This online news platform understands that Fashola, who was a two-time governor of Lagos state, became the minister of Power, Works and Housing during President Buhari’s first term tagged: “Change”.

Meanwhile, this is coming at a time Nigerians have taken to Twitter to berate President Muhammadu Buhari over the purported invitation of Don Jazzy and Tiwa Savage by the Department of State Service (DSS).

Naija News understands that a report filed by SaharaReporters had said the DSS reportedly invited Nigerian music producer and his former signee Tiwatope Savage, also known as Tiwa Savage, for questioning over alleged political comments against President Muhammadu Buhari-led government.

The report said following the increase in rape cases in Nigeria, Tiwa Savage began a movement known as “WeAreTired” in protest of the situation. The musician through the movement called on the current government to take action to stem the tide of rape in the country.

According to the report, the call by Tiwa Savage for the Buhari’s administration to live up to its responsibilities to Nigerians earned the singer an invitation by the DSS.  Together with Don Jazzy, Savage was invited to the DSS office in Lagos two weeks ago during which they were warned to be careful with their posts on the social media.

Reacting to the development in a short video published on the micro-blogging site, Twitter, Don Jazzy asked what the word “quizzes” was as applied in the report published by SaharaReporters.

Like Don Jazzy, Nigerians took to Twitter to air their opinions on the matter with some asking for former President Goodluck Jonathan for forgiveness.

Naija News captured some of the reactions below…

If Fashola becomes the minister of power, I would throw away my generators – Don Jazzy.

Jazzy helped to enthrone tyrant Buhari, now he’s being hounded by Buhari’s DSS, for criticising his govt.

It is sadistic to compare Buhari’s human rights abuses, abuse of office, scandals, corruption matters etc, to Goodluck Jonathan’s.

We’re supposed to be moving forward, to be progressive.

Sadly, Don Jazzy & Tiwa Savage wouldn’t be the last. They will come for ALL OF US, las las.
