Popular Nigerian skitmaker and activist, Debo Adedayo, better known as Mr Macaroni, has condemned the Delta State School of Nursing for issuing a query to student nurse Osato Edobor after she shared a viral video of her colleagues singing a controversial welcome song for First Lady, Senator Remi Tinubu.
During preparations for the First Lady’s visit to the state on Wednesday, March 26, the event’s MC led students in a song with the lyrics:
“Na our mama be this, we nor get another,”
However, instead of singing along, some students responded:
“Na your mama be this.”
The video quickly went viral, triggering mixed reactions. While some Nigerians praised the students for their response, others criticized them, calling their actions disrespectful.
Amid the ongoing discussions, reports emerged that Osato Edobor, the student who recorded and shared the video, was issued a query by the school management, raising concerns about freedom of expression.
Reacting to the development, Mr Macaroni questioned why a student would face disciplinary action over a song.
He wrote:
“Delta State College of Nursing Sciences is threatening a student with disciplinary action because of a song???
The students say dem sabi their mama!!
Students wey their mama dey work hard to give them better life… una wan come expel them because them refuse to deny their mama? Na by force???”
The situation has continued to stir debates online, with many Nigerians calling for fairness and protection of students' rights.
