- Fans weighed in as Falz questioned how many more lives must be lost before the government takes decisive action
Nigerian rapper Folarin Falana, famously known as Falz, has taken a direct swipe at President Bola Tinubu following the deadly bandits’ attack on Christ Apostolic Church (CAC), Oke Isegun, Eruku, in Kwara State.
The attack, which saw multiple worshippers abducted, pushed Falz to demand immediate accountability.
In a post shared on his X handle on Wednesday, the rapper accused the President of failing in his constitutional duty to protect citizens.

According to him, the continuous silence and inaction surrounding recurring killings have become unbearable for Nigerians.
Falz referenced a 2014 tweet where then–APC leader Bola Tinubu told former President Goodluck Jonathan to resign over insecurity.
The rapper used that moment as a mirror to reflect the current reality.
He wrote:
“How many more people have to be kidnapped and murdered in cold blood? You have consistently shown your unwillingness to protect the lives and property of our people, despite pretending to care in the past. RESIGN NOW!”
Falz is the latest celebrity to condemn the deadly attack, following reactions from RMD and Funke Akindele.
