Popular singer and activist, Folarin Falana, also known as Falz, has accused President Bola Tinubu of failing to perform his primary responsibility of securing lives and properties in the country.
He berated the President for failing to tackle the escalating insecurity in the country.
He stated this on his X account while reacting to the recent massacre in Benue State.
The ‘This is Nigeria’ crooner asserted that Tinubu has consistently shown that he is incapable of performing his primary responsibility of securing lives and properties.
He emphasised that the routine statement by the President does not address the issue of insecurity.
Falz wrote, “You have consistently shown that you are incapable of performing the primary duty of securing lives and property of your citizens. This routine statement does not cut it.”
In another post, Falz lamented that the killings in Benue are not getting enough attention.
He said, “Over 200 senselessly slain and burnt alive in Benue and this is not even getting close to enough attention. Why are we so wicked to ourselves?”
Meanwhile, Falz has dismissed claims of having a relationship with controversial crossdresser Idris Okunneye, better known as Bobrisky.
Naijaonpoint recalls that social media critic, VeryDarkMan, also known as VDM, had in 2024 leaked Falz’s alleged phone conversation with Bobrisky while the latter was in prison.
The development sparked widespread homosexual speculation about Falz, and he filed a defamation suit against VDM.
Amid the ongoing legal battles with VDM, Falz, during an interview with Arise TV on Wednesday, June 4, 2025, denied having a relationship with Bobrisky, stating that he only tried to help.
Giving an update on the court case with VDM, Falz added that the social media critic has yet to enter the defense.
He said, “Update on the court case, very much still in court. There’s a substantive suit which myself and my dad are alleging defamation. We filed the case and ever since we filed the case, they have never entered the defense. Instead, they entered a preliminary objection saying the court doesn’t have jurisdiction to hear the case or something.
“As at the last date, I was in court. The court has thrown out that preliminary objection. Now they have to enter a defense or the court will just go on to rule on the case. So that’s the update. I can’t really say much about the subject of current litigation, so I will leave it there.
“I never had any relationship with Bobrisky prior to that phone call. He messaged me on Instagram and said, ‘I’m in this case and I want to speak to you about how you can help.’ And you know, thousands of people messaged me about similar stuff like that. This is not a special case; it’s not exceptional in any way.
“In a lot of those cases, I will give them an audience, like what is the P, how can I help? Compassionately. Little did I know. Anyways, as they say, once bitten, twice shy. At the end of the day, I’m not going to, maybe I’m not going to help anyone again in my life, but maybe I will be much more conscious.”
