Bashir Ahmad Calls Out Music Star, Davido Over Controversial Song

Bashir Ahmad, an aide to Ex-President, Muhammadu Buhari has expressed his displeasure with music star, Davido’s approval of visuals to singer, Logos Olori’s new single “Jaye Lo”.

Davido also posted the music video of the single on his official handle on Friday.

The video showed some people dressed in white clothes praying the way the Muslims do before launching into dancing.

Taking to his handle on Saturday, Bashir Ahmad found the video offensive and criticised the “Unavailable” crooner for promoting the content.

According to him, the video is disrespectful to Islam and many Muslims will find it offensive.

He wrote, “There are many reasons why every Muslim finds this content absolutely disrespectful, hurtful, and offensive @Davido.

“I assume you all know that we Muslims don’t mix our religion with jokes in any way, especially Salah (prayer), which is sacred and the second of the five pillars of Islam. In Salah, Muslims remember our Lord, Allah, express our love and respect for Him, and invoke and strive to express our gratitude towards Him. The notion is that the Salah activity brings the individual face-to-face with God. That is what we believe, and that is our faith. Please respect it. No Muslim will find it as an honor or acceptable.”
