Falz

Nigerian rapper Folarin Falana, known as Falz, has expressed his support for the ongoing strike by labor unions, even though it has disrupted his business.

The Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and the Trade Union Congress (TUC) began an indefinite strike on Monday to pressure the government into agreeing on a new minimum wage and reconsidering the increase in electricity prices for certain consumers.

Falz mentioned that the strike left him stranded in Uyo as his return flight to Lagos was canceled due to airport closures. He also lost money on a video shoot he had organized in Lagos but couldn’t attend.

Despite these setbacks, Falz stated that he understands and supports the reasons behind the strike. In a video message shared on his Instagram account, he said,

“I woke up this morning, set out for the airport only to hear that the airport is closed, all the flights are cancelled because of the strike action. I can’t make it to Lagos, now stuck in Uyo.

“It affected me because there is a video shoot I’m supposed to do in Lagos today, I ended up losing money because we have already booked stuff, so we are going to have to pay another amount. Despite the fact that it really affected me, I understand the reason for the strike and I’m with them. I am with the labour. In fact, this strike is supposed to happen earlier than now.”
