Simi Comes Under Blast For Her #FvckYouChallenge Cover

Nigerian singer, Simi has come under blast from fans after she released her own version of the trending #FvckYouChallange.

The #FvckYouChallenge was started by Nigerian singer, Kizz Daniel and it has seen many other artists like Tiwa Savage, Dremo, Falz and many others jump on it to release covers.

Simi who is the latest star to jump on it came under fire for talking about people with tribal marks in her cover. Simi had used lyrics “sè mo kòlá ní” which literally can be translated from the Yoruba language as “Do I look stupid?

Following the backlash she received that the lyrics are offensive, insensitive and derogatory, Simi, has taken to Twitter to apologize for her actions. Taking to Twitter to clear the air, the recently married singer shared an image on Twitter which read;

“Guys I had to bring down my post cos I used the line “abi o ro bi mo kola ni” (Do you think I have tribal marks?) – which people mean to say “Am I stupid”.
It’s an old Yoruba ‘joke’, but I never acknowledged how insensitive it is. It offended some and I shouldn’t have used it. Lots of unlearning to do. We should remember to be sensitive and emphatic to others,
Also I know the video is all over the place already, but it’s a step in the right direction and I apologize to anyone that was/is offended by it. I only ever mean
well.
Also, if you think this is extra, it’s part of the problem. Always letting BS go is how we build the wrong cultures that become hard to shake off.”

She added in another tweet,

“I don’t want this to trend for the wrong reasons please. Let’s not only advocate for the things that directly affect us. Lezzz keep it moving. I’ma make many many more lit covers insha Allah. Na the work wey we dey do ☺️💙”

Residents of Samreboi are up in arms with the Government of Ghana over neglect of their roads. According to residents, It has become very worrying as their bad road network is affecting not only economic activities but also their social activities.
