Ali Baba
Nigerian ace comedian, Alibaba, has reportedly expressed his
dissappointment on the NBC’s ban on Nigerian songs, maintaining that
most of the banned songs have been in circulation for a long time.
He was said to have used Olamide’s Shakiti Bobo as an example, maintaining that even pastors are aware of the song.
Alibaba wondered why it took the NBC so long to realise that the
songs were not good enough for the public, reaffirming that some of the
songs were so popular that worshipers demonstrate the dance steps during
praise and worship in churches.
In his words; “I just heard that some songs were banned from
airplay. Wait o, if it took NBC how many months to know the contents of a
song were not fit for public consumption, then we should worry. Songs
that I have heard Pastors singing sef. People even shakiti in church
during praise and worship.”
