Veteran Rapper Eedris Abdulkareem Has Dropped Another Banger Called Ojoro INEC

Veteran Nigerian rapper Eedris Abdulkareem has once again stirred the socio-political landscape with his latest single, “Ojoro INEC,” released on May 29, 2025. The song critiques the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) for its perceived partiality and inefficiency, suggesting that the electoral body operates under the influence of the current administration rather than maintaining its independence.

In “Ojoro INEC,” Abdulkareem continues his tradition of using music as a platform for political commentary. The track follows his earlier 2025 release, “Tell Your Papa,” which addressed Seyi Tinubu, son of President Bola Tinubu, urging him to convey the populace’s hardships to his father. This song was subsequently banned by the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) for being “inappropriate and offensive,” a move that sparked debates on freedom of expression and censorship in Nigeria.

Abdulkareem’s history of politically charged music dates back to his 2004 hit “Jaga Jaga,” which criticized corruption and poor governance in Nigeria. Despite facing bans and governmental pushback, he has remained steadfast in his commitment to highlighting societal issues through his art.

The release of “Ojoro INEC” adds to Abdulkareem’s repertoire of protest songs, reinforcing his role as a vocal critic of governmental policies and actions. As Nigeria continues to grapple with political and economic challenges, his music serves as a reflection of public sentiment and a call for accountability
