Lagos Police Spokesman Criticised Ayo Maff’s New Song For Praising Drug Use
The Lagos state police spokesperson, Benjamin Hundeyin, has expressed concerns over the explicit content in rising singer Ayo Maff’s new song, “Last Week”.
Hundeyin took to social media to criticize the song, highlighting the negative impact of drug use on young people.
The song’s lyrics celebrate drug use, with the artist openly bragging about consuming cannabis and running low on supplies by Saturday.
Hundeyin noted that half of the young people in prison are there due to drug abuse, which often leads to criminal behaviour.
He urged artists to consider the impact of their lyrics on their audience.
Hundeyin wrote: “He does what on Mondays and Saturdays? Help me listen.
“Like Asa said, there is fire on the mountain and nobody seems to be on the run…
“Fact: Half of the young ones in prison today wouldn’t be there if they didn’t do drugs. Drugs is a precursor to everything bad. Eni a wi fun”
