Naira Marley, on Tuesday morning canceled the protest after persuasion from Buhari’s government and the Nigeria Police.

Recall that the Minister of Youths, Sunday Dare, on Monday appealed to the singer not to protest, adding that the government is addressing the grievances expressed by Nigerians, especially youths.

Also, the Nigeria police urged the singer to be patient, adding that the force is working with the Minister of youths to seek reform and address all issues relating to operations of SARS.

However, the cancellation of SARS protest has led to criticisms from some Nigerians while other applauded Naira Marley for taking the bold step which got the attention of the government and the Police.

Here are some comments

@IamOkon “Naira Marley is truly the Fela of our time. Man not only went to prison and came back but now the Nigeria police is begging him not to lead a protest plus having an Instagram Live session with him by 11am. Naira Marley aka the people’s president! Marlians!

@Toslaa “So the police wants to have an Instagram live chat with Naira Marley and requested that the protest be held down for a week. In a week, we know the number of lives that can be affected. Clearly, they’re scared of the international bodies sharing the news!

@Jharmo “The Buhari regime is not scared of Naira Marley but only afraid of the revolutionary forces that would rally round him, galvanize the people with ideological inputs which will in-turn gives this protest a direction towards people’s emancipation & liberation.”

@YemiHazzan ” Naira Marley cancelled the planned protest today so he and a representative of the Police force can solve SARS brutality issue on Instagram live. Face with tears of joy.11am on IG live. Log on to see two clowns clowning with full confidence.”

@Enigma “Naira Marley canceling the protests is not cowardly, for me. It is just common sense, the minister and the police probably spoke to him about implementing change, and that’s a start.”

@Sodiqtrade “Sowore arranged protest, no statement from the minister not to talk of the police. The police would just go out in their usuals to arrest Sowore and his protesters. Naira Marley announced a protest late yesterday, Minister begged him to chill and now Police.Celeb influence.”

@Dondekojo “Why are they so scared of protests? Good that Naira Marley’s proposed protest got their attention, with the minister of youth and now the Police Tagging him, I guess that is what they’d have achieved with the protest.”

Davido Adeleke Electrifies Ibadan Stadium in 5ive Alive Tour Homecoming
Share for social good

Nigerian global music icon Davido Adeleke brought the energy of his acclaimed 5ive Alive World Tour to a thunderous finale at the Liberty Stadium in Ibadan on Tuesday, November 12, 2025.

The performance marked a symbolic homecoming for Davido, who first graced an Ibadan stage in 2011 as an up-and-coming artist. Fourteen years later, he returned as one of Africa’s biggest stars commanding a crowd of tens of thousands and wrapping up the Nigerian leg of his sold-out world tour.

Fans filled the stadium hours before showtime, chanting his name and waving light sticks as anticipation built. Davido delivered a two-hour set packed with career-defining hits, including Dami Duro, If, Fall, Unavailable, and Feel. The stage production featured pyrotechnics, LED visuals, and guest appearances from Afrobeat collaborators such as Mayorkun and Logos Olori.

Tour organizers revealed that the 5ive Alive concerts sold over 98,000 tickets across Nigeria, with stops in Lagos, Abuja, Port Harcourt, Kano, and Ibadan. The tour, launched earlier in 2025, has drawn international acclaim for its precision, crowd engagement, and Davido’s ability to blend nostalgia with modern Afrobeat energy.

However, the tour wasn’t without somber moments. Reports of two fatalities from overcrowding at the Enugu stop earlier in the month cast a shadow over the celebrations. While Davido’s management has not released an official statement, sources close to the artist confirmed that financial and emotional support was quietly extended to the victims’ families.

In Ibadan, Davido took a reflective pause between songs to thank his fans for their loyalty:

“Ibadan was one of the first cities that believed in me. From 2011 till now look where we are. This is love, this is home,” he said to roaring applause.

As the 5ive Alive tour now prepares to move to Europe and North America, Davido’s Ibadan performance stands as both a triumphant homecoming and a reminder of his decade-long journey as a symbol of modern Nigerian music excellence.
