It was a vintage scenario of Light! Camera! Action! at the creatively crafted studio known as Selfie City in Lagos, when Nigeria’s iconic music star, Eedris Abdulkareem wrapped up the visual production on Olufemi Ajadi’s antecedents.
The production was a song that details the rise from obscurity to prominence of Ajadi, the New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) gubernatorial candidate in the 2023 general elections in Ogun State.
It was directed by Fizzle and Bizzle productions, and covered by some media outfits, the video gives a bite to the motivational story of Ajadi’s inspirational journey through deprivation, wants and eventual triumph.
Done in the classical Eedris Abdulkareem style of using music to promote the maxim of ‘each one teach one’, the song is ultimately meant to inspire and motivate Nigerian youths to keep the faith and never to give up on their dreams and aspirations.
Abdulkareem, in the song, used Hon Ajadi as a youthful example of resilience and the will to succeed irrespective of the odds.
The legendary afro hip-hop musician said Ajadi believes in the project called Nigeria, who is interested in supporting the next generation of youths to take their due positions in the political leadership.
