Show Dem Camp, revolutionary Nigerian hip hop artists are back with a new single and video called, “Happy Weekend.”
Brilliant music and video concept with a light-hearted twist to the Nigerian struggle. It particularly highlights issues with Nigerian law enforcement seeking bribe at checkpoints and area boys assuming jobs as parking attendants demanding pay illegally.
“Happy Weekend” most often translates to “Oga/Madam, make you settle us so we fit enjoy the weekend.”
FACT: Nigeria, even with her abundance of natural resources, is still one of the poorest countries in the world with 63% of its population living on below $1 (N165) daily. Ethnic conflict, income inequality and political instability are commonly linked to this sour fact.
