Today, Wednesday 23rd July 2014 makes
it 100 days since 276 girls were
kidnapped from the Government
Secondary School, Chibok Borno state
and to mark this, there has been heavy
conversation centred around the
missing Chibok girls and
#BringBackOurGirls campaign .
Joining in the conversation was the
What’s Trending team at Classic 97.3fm
who had 2Face Idibia as a guest on the
show. 2Face who happened to be in the
studio promoting his latest album,
“ The Ascension” was quizzed on the
issue of the missing girls and the
multiple award winning singer was very
vocal in his disappointment over the
manner in which the situation was
being handled.
“ I think the whole thing is a joke” he
began, “The government has not
expressed enough seriousness in
handling the situation.”
He went on to say that rather than
politicise the situation, if there was
really a kidnap, the government should
live up to its responsibility and work
hard towards the return of the missing
girls rather than trade blames amongst
the various political parties.
Also when asked if he would ever
consider a political appointment,
specifically representing his Idoma tribe
in the national level, he emphatically
stated that politics was not for him.
“I don’t want to be one of all those
people that will heavily criticise the
government from outside then when I
get in for whatever reason I won’t be
able to work and make a difference. I’ll
rather stick with my music” he
concluded.
Meanwhile 2Face’s “ The Ascension”
album which features artistes like
Iceberg Slim , Tony One Week amongst
others has dropped and he’s expected to
be the headline act at Industry Night
later today.
