Charly Boy, the renowned singer and activist, passionately implores Nigerian youths to remain steadfast in their resolve to hold nationwide protests against corrupt governance.

If those in positions of authority are certain about their honesty, Charly Boy recommended that they welcome scrutiny and protest rather than suppress it.

Nigerian youths never give up. Unless they fear us, there will be no respect for us.

“Dia fathers” is nonsensical.
