A Nigerian man, identifying as a Christian, has demanded that Nigerian artist Asake remove his music video featuring a bandana within 24 hours. The man raised objections to certain parts of the video being filmed in a church, citing offense to Christians. This comes in the wake of allegations against another Nigerian singer, Davido, who was accused of insulting Muslims in a music video featuring his signee, Logos Olori, sitting on a mosque. Although Davido has already taken down the controversial video, the call for Asake to follow suit has sparked diverse reactions from Nigerians, as seen in the comments section.
Reactions from some commenters include:
