In Nigeria, there are lots of songs that are being released by several artists regularly, but what you may not be aware of is that some of these songs get banned. The National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) is in charge of controlling the kinds of songs that are being aired on radio stations. Any song that doesn't meet the requirements gets banned. Most times, songs that portray lots of vulgar or sexual words get banned.
A popular Nigerian singer named Ric Hassani recently revealed in a Tweet that his song "Thunder Fire You" has been banned by the NBC. He further revealed that radio stations that play his song are being fined. Check out his tweet below.
This tweet got lots of replies from people. Most people seemed to point out the fact that the song was obviously banned because of the lyrics. The statement "Thunder Fire You" is taken to be a curse word, and he used it a lot in the lyrics of the song. In the song he talked about an ex that lied to him and broke his heart. He then directed the statement "Thunder Fire you" at her. Some people felt that the lyrics were bad, and not passing any meaningful messages. Check out some of the comments below.
