P-Square pledges to sing about incessant power outages
MULTIPLE award-winning
hip-hop group. P-Square have indicated that its next album will dwell more
on songs that will speak out the suffering of Nigerians in order to make government
wake up to its duties.
Speaking to Trend'tainment recently, the duo of Peter and Paul Okoye regretted
the poor provision of basic social amenities like power to Nigerians saying
that a country that prides itself as the giant of Africa should live up to
its duties to its citizens.
“We are claiming that we are the giant of Africa when our power sector
is in coma. We have the biggest oil wells in Africa and yet our government
cannot provide us with power,” Paul said.
Their worry for the poor state of infrastructures like road, pipe borne water
and electricity is coming in the wake of their Invasion Africa Project which
has seen them through most African countries like Liberia, Zambia, Uganda
t, Gabon, Ghana, Guinea, Sierra Leone, Rwanda and so on.
The Do Me crooners revealed that they were surprised to see that some countries
that just came out from a war situation some few years ago boast of good roads,
electricity and excellent health facilities that are lacking in Nigeria.
“All the countries we have been to, there has not been power disruption
for any single day. Even in Rwanda that just came out of a war not quite long
ago having uninterrupted power supply. We were surprised that a country that
came out of a war 14 years ago has gotten their acts right and we are still
at this stage,” Peter complained.
They promised that they will definitely sing about their experiences in their
next album to see that the government provides these amenities to the citizenry.
Watch out for it my brother; we are getting details, data and information,
our country cannot continue like this when we are not in any war,” P-Square
resolved.
