Meta, the parent company of Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, Messenger, and Threads, has suspended the Facebook and Instagram accounts of Nigerian musician and activist Eedris Abdulkareem.
The accounts were flagged and taken down less than a week after the 'Jaga Jaga' crooner released a new single titled "Open Letter to Donald Trump."
In the song, Abdulkareem addresses the President of the United States, Donald Trump, asking him to intervene in resolving several crises, especially Nigeria's security problems.
The track, released under his label, Lakreem Entertainment, on TikTok on November 29, 2025, is described as both a message to the US President and a criticism of Nigeria's political leaders.
Abdulkareem refers to Nigerian leaders as "criminals of all shades and hues" who benefit while citizens face insecurity, kidnappings, killings, and terrorism. With the line "dem dey fear Donald Trump," he frames the song as an attempt to draw global attention to the situation in Nigeria.
Meanwhile, this is not the first time Abdulkareem has used music to challenge those in power. In April 2025, he released "Tell Your Papa," calling out Seyi Tinubu and urging him to inform his father, President Bola Tinubu, about the struggles Nigerians face.
The National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) later banned the song, saying it violated the Broadcasting Code.
In 2004, then-President Olusegun Obasanjo also banned Abdulkareem's song "Jaga Jaga," which eventually grew into an underground anthem.
